When it comes to hobbies, we always think of reading, practicing calligraphy, singing, playing the piano, playing ball, swimming, painting and other cultural and sports activities. These activities always have the purpose of strengthening the body, increasing knowledge and cultivating an elegant life. And when I say hobby, I just like it for no purpose. I do it from the heart and get endless fun from it, so that even ordinary days can become interesting and poetic.
The ancients all had various unique hobbies. Elegant hobbies such as burning incense and playing the piano, enjoying tea and the moon, and reading poems all show the interesting life of the ancients. Many of them have their own special hobbies:
Yong Zhengdi in history is famous for its diligence, harshness and anxiety. The most diligent emperor in human history has been busy all his life. He has never been to the south, never left the hunting ground or even been to chengde mountain resort. But he still has his own unique hobbies. He devoted his life to making palace handicrafts, conceiving various luxury goods or bedroom design schemes, trying to burn colored glass and enamel pieces, and then letting ministers turn them into real objects. Perhaps it is the best way for this iron-fisted monarch to relieve tension and stress? When future generations look at the pastel porcelain of Yongzheng dynasty, they will feel that the spring breeze from willow branches will sway people's souls and the whole soul will be softened. Perhaps there is a garden full of flowers in the heart of this iron-fisted emperor. Is this a way to express his romantic feelings?
Su Shi, a master of the Song Dynasty, said, "It is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo". At that time, Su Shi's articles were just like delicious braised pork (Dongpo pork), fresh and mellow, crisp but not greasy. People reading Su Shi's articles are as refreshing as eating braised pork. In addition, Su Shi loves bamboo, likes climbing mountains, often travels at night, makes friends with hermits and envies immortals; Just like a saint, his thoughts and actions are immersed in this elegance and become a dazzling pearl.
Speaking of Zhang, we usually think of words such as "clearing the field" and "whipping", but you never think that Zhang is actually a delicate man in life. In the Ming Dynasty, Shen Defu recorded in "Hua Zheng, the Second Scholar of Wanli Wild Official Department": "Therefore, Xiang Jiangling is a male, and he is fond of China and Chu, and his clothes will be dazzling and dazzling, and he will make progress sooner or later. Although Gu Li and Yan He can't be surpassed, they will change their habits for a while and most of them will be extravagant. " A handsome man loves exquisite clothes and is keen on skin care, which really attracts people's attention, and also makes politicians above the temple feel a layer of fireworks.
I remember someone saying, give time to life, not life to time. We are walking in the world. Most of the time, in the ordinary life, the trivial life of daily necessities, and the trivial time, it is the interest in our hearts that makes our hearts peaceful and quiet, makes our lives bright and makes our lives interesting. These hobbies can even be called hobbies, because they are just for liking, without any purpose, just to please their own hearts.
For example, I also have many strange hobbies: I like reading books, especially messy books, and I can learn numerology from astronomical geography and historical legends; I like to eat the edge of a big cake. Every time I buy a big cake, I pinch off a little bit to eat, and I can't see the rest, so my family can't understand it. I like walking, drinking tea and reading books, and sleeping in when it rains and snows, but these are all done under certain circumstances. For example, once it rained cats and dogs, my husband didn't come to pick me up in time for something, which made me soaked through. My husband said shyly, "Don't you just like walking in rainy days?" I couldn't help flying into a rage: "Is that the rain in Mao Mao? How can I be in the mood for a walk when I am soaked and shivering? ! "Provoked him to laugh:" Ye Gong is still a good dragon! "
There are many such interesting people around me. For example, some people like to read Water Margin, read it again and again, and read it from childhood to adulthood. I believe that there will be different gains over and over again, and different ages and different life experiences will have different feelings.
Some people are obsessed with the study of traditional Chinese medicine, reading ancient books for research, and often prescribe some small prescriptions to treat our minor problems in their lives, which has a miraculous effect, and even received rave reviews after "illegal medical practice";
Some people are keen on cooking all kinds of delicious food, and enjoy it whether they succeed or fail. Once she saw that the glutinous rice flour at home was about to expire, so it was a pity to throw it away directly, so she added eggs, milk and honey, baked it into cookies and threw it away. The reason is that you can't eat it when it's done. Although the ending is speechless, the production process is really enjoyable and full of expectations. Who says the process must have a perfect result in the end?
Some people like to take beautiful photos, whether in gorgeous flowers or under a crooked tree. As long as they are in the mood and find the right angle, they will take a variety of unique large-scale feelings that others can't understand.
I have also met several excellent men who don't go to dimly lit hotels to raise their glasses. Every weekend, a few friends live in a corner of a humble room, play a seemingly endless game of small cards, stew a pot of milky mutton soup on a red fire, match some vegetables and drink a few glasses of sake. There is no secular chaos, no polite trap. Between bosom friends, we can be close at hand, but far away. This acquaintance is to savor the bouquet of flowers with wounds on the road I walked through, and it is difficult to hide its alcohol even if the lane is deep.
This kind of interest beyond one's own heart, this unusual acquaintance, is not necessarily a "useful" thing in the material, but a spiritual sustenance and dependence in one's own heart. It is precisely because of this hobby, the interest of life, in a meal, a dish, three friends and two friends, the scenery of the four seasons, I feel that life is so beautiful that I can't live up to it.
Xing) in space bound recovery day, did not end the joy. I hope you have the same hobby to please your heart, even salted fish, you should make the saltiest one.
