Find your own excitement

Life is long and short.

Zhuangzi said, life between heaven and earth, if the blink of an eye, is fleeting. Qu yuan said, the road is long, and I will search up and down.

Both length and short are relative. However, regardless of the length, whether Zhuangzi or Qu Yuan, they are only trying to express their own views later, and the time will not become longer or shorter because of personal understanding.

In our life, happy days are always short, while hard days always seem so long. How to slow down the fast-paced days, or make the hard days easier, there is a secret, that is, let your heart find a place to put it, which can not only keep time, but also free people from pain. This is an eternal panacea.

It is difficult for many people to find their own heart and find their own excitement, but it is not. Because there is no distinction between high and low, there is no distinction between elegance and vulgarity, it belongs to oneself, not to others. As the saying goes, "as long as you can enjoy yourself, it doesn't depend on what others think."

For example, painting and calligraphy, many people think that it is beyond our power. In fact, as long as you are willing, you can put away your pen and ink, find a copybook or album you like, "draw a gourd ladle" first, then get familiar with it gradually, have a strong driving ability, then put aside the model, slowly accumulate experience and find your own expression. In ancient times, because most of those good works were hidden in the hands of royal nobles, it was difficult for ordinary people to see them, and it was also very difficult to learn and copy the excellent works of the ancients. So we can see that many ancient paintings and calligraphy were written by royalty. For example, Wang Xizhi, a "book sage" in the Jin Dynasty, was a noble family at that time, and there was a saying that "the king and the horse * * * the world". The "Wang" in Liu Yuxi's poem "In the Old Society, Wang Xietang died and flew into the homes of ordinary people" refers to Wang Langya; Song Huizong Emperor Evonne was the leader of calligraphy and painting at that time. He created his own calligraphy "thin gold body" and painted flowers and birds into "courtyard body" Zhao Mengfu, a famous painter in Yuan Dynasty, was the 11th grandson of Zhao Kuangyin, Song Taizu. His achievements in painting and calligraphy are very high. His paintings are called "the crown of Yuan people" and his calligraphy is "Zhao Ti", which is also called "the four masters of regular script" with Ou Yangxun, Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongquan. There are many such examples. The reason why they have achieved these achievements is closely related to their environment and the conditions they can achieve. Now that the printing industry is developed, you can see the paintings and calligraphy works of famous artists of all ages, and some of them have demonstrations or demonstrations on the Internet. If you have the conditions, you can also go to museums all over the country to see the real thing. For a painting and calligraphy lover, it is really convenient.

Another example is collection. If the capital is strong and the money is not bad, you can make a comprehensive collection, including bronzes, calligraphy and painting, porcelain, jade and furniture. If there is no such good condition, you can be partial to one category or engage in some minority collections. I have a friend who has a collection of hundreds of bells. Some people say, what's the point of collecting bells? In fact, no matter what the collection is, I didn't know the situation before I walked in. I didn't know until I really walked in that there was a hole in it. Think about it, take the clock as an example. Geographically, it can be divided into domestic and foreign countries. From the cultural circle of China, there are Japanese, Korean, Southeast Asia and so on. Abroad, and at home, there are southeast, southwest, northwest, northeast and central plains, so we can understand the customs of different regions. According to ethnic groups, there are 56 ethnic groups in China, each with its own characteristics; According to the function, camel bells can remind you of the desert sky, camel bells burst, and wind chimes can remind you of towers, temples, spring breeze and spring and autumn geometry; According to materials, there are copper, iron, porcelain and so on. , can let you know about the handicraft industry at that time; According to the age, from prehistoric times to Hanwu in Qin Huang, and then to the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, we can see the development of Jason Chung. By summing up these differences, we can find many knowledge points, which is also very interesting to learn. Therefore, although a small group looks unremarkable, it is still a meaningful thing to really go in and go deeper.

Some people say that what you said was done by intellectuals, and I have a low level of education and can't get those things. So, do you exercise? Do Tai Chi, stand on a stake, or simply say, run. If you are smart, you can jump rope and kick shuttlecock. Look at kicking shuttlecock in the square. One person kicks alone, two people kick in pairs, and many people kick together in a circle. There are many kinds of tricks. "If your knees are axial and your waist is like cotton, you jump into an ape and fall to the ground." Kick forward, kick backward, kick forward, kick sideways, fly up and down, dazzling. Sometimes I deliberately make some incredible moves and make a face, which makes people laugh and cry and makes people sad. There are many famous names, such as "Yuanyang Leg", "Yin and Yang Feet", "Flower Wearing" and "Orchid Petals", which all sound so good.

Speaking of sports, the crowd is even smaller. A friend once talked about playing slingshot, which was played by gay men who grew up in the countryside as children. Find a twig, two valve wires and a small leather and tie them together. But now slingshot players are very different from before. Advanced point, the branches are mahogany, and two elastic rope are imported, completely different from the previous humble, has become "tall", not only practical, but also a work of art, people can't put it down in their hands. When my friend came, as soon as he saw the meal, he took out his slingshot and walked outside. Several sparrows fell in response, and it was time for snacks. Let the guests stunned one by one.

People say that the exercise you mentioned also needs skills, and neither can I. I like farming. It doesn't matter, plowing, raking, sowing, watering, fertilizing, weeding, climate, soil, farming season, leeks in spring, melons in summer, fruits in autumn, sitting in a warm room in winter and stewing your own cabbage and dried beans on the stove are also steaming and enjoyable.

Some people say that I'm not interested in anything else. I'm only excited to see money. There is nothing to be ashamed of. I am responsible for making money to support my family, and you are responsible for beauty. What a wonderful thing. As long as it is not black-hearted money, it is understandable to take pleasure in making money. Yang Shaohua, a late Tianjin crosstalk performer, said in an interview that he used to be afraid of poverty, so he especially liked money. His greatest pleasure was counting money. Tell the truth. I once saw in the media that an official made a lot of money by taking bribes, bought a house and put money in it, but he usually lived in poverty and went to see the money at home if he had nothing to do. I don't know how twisted this psychology is. I also heard a story about a boss who was so stingy that he didn't even want to pay his employees. Every time before paying his salary, he would put all his money on the table and cry, and then let the financial staff take it out. You said that the world is really full of miracles.

The most common thing is eating and drinking. China people's diet has a special culture. Confucius said, food is not tired of essence, and food is not tired of detail. Cao Mengde said that only Du Kang can solve this problem. Some people even say that all the efforts and efforts in this life are for eating and drinking. This is obviously a little too narrow, but at least it shows the importance of eating and drinking. One day when I came home from work, I heated two glasses of wine and fried a handful of peanuts, and my fatigue disappeared. If it is more poetic, "Until, raise my cup, I ask the bright moon, bring my shadow to me, let the three of us" will be more elegant. I got a bottle of good wine, had a drink with three or five confidants, boasted and chatted, "I will talk for a lifetime when the lights are dizzy", and the boring evening was sent away. The key is not to get addicted to drugs and become rich. After drinking a glass of wine, you start to get drunk, call names all over the street and call friends one by one, which makes people fidget and can't sleep well. It doesn't matter if you like to eat. It's good to have the opportunity to shine and often cook for my family. I am afraid that I am lazy, but if I don't do it myself, I will find fault with others. In addition, now that life is good, you can't just eat without considering your physical endurance. "Eat without getting fat, love without hurting" is a skill, and eat and cherish it.

Having said that, I actually want to say that everyone's wonderful things are different, and everyone can find their own wonderful things, depending on whether you want to find them or not. Life is like a dream. It's really important to live well. As long as you find your own excitement, you must live a full life. If you live with flavor, there will be no such thing as "being born before you are 100 years old and always worrying about your chitose". Just like Mr. Uncle said, "It's getting late, take your wife to sleep;" The world is broken. Go find his mother. "

Everyone smiles.
