Today we will talk about the difference.
"Eat, drink and be merry" means to seize the time and have fun. There is a poem called Ximenxing in Yuefu Poetry Collection called Han Yuefu. This poem is about eating, drinking and having fun, which reflects a strong decadent idea, or it can be said that it expresses a life attitude of "living in the present".
This "living in the present" is to cherish time and seize the opportunity of happiness.
Let's look at "If you drink today, you will get drunk today", which comes from the seven-character quatrain "Self-Dispatch" written by Luo Yin, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. The next sentence is "Worried about tomorrow".
"Bitterness is also a day, and joy is also a day. Why are you unhappy? " Luo Yin had a bumpy career and was a scholar for ten times. This poem was written by Luo Yin with emotion, and the title is self-deprecating.
Now when we quote this poem, sometimes we want to express that we should not worry too much and grasp the happiness of the moment.
For contemporary people, the ever-changing information, lack of knowledge and uncertainty have brought a lot of anxiety.
Some people bring the anger and embarrassment they have experienced in the past, and occasionally turn it out in their minds to taste.
Some people fly the wings of imagination and worry about whether there will be sadness tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
So we repeatedly mentioned the word "live in the present".
Live in the present, Baidu Chinese explains it this way: grasp the present, when the past cannot be changed.
We know that in the past, present and future, all we have is this second.
We try to ask ourselves, at this moment, what is wrong with us?
Just at this moment, it is not enough for us to face so many complicated problems in our life and work.
At present, it is too small and has too many problems to fit in.
At that moment, there was actually no problem.
For those of us who think too much and care too much about other people's eyes, we can't accept the imperfect past and the insecure future.
The most important thing to live in the present is to be content with the status quo.
Accept yourself, there is no "problem" in your heart at present.
Live in the present, just need us, pay attention to the present, where are you? What do you see? What do you feel?
Accept yourself now and we will have this moment.
"Live in the moment, eat, drink and be merry" should not be just hedonistic rhetoric. Not that I'm happy now, but I don't care about anything else.
Live in the moment and let your heart accept all your emotions now.
Observe your troubles, don't judge, don't hate, don't suppress.
Emotions and thoughts are like a bouncy ball. The more you try to control them, the greater the pressure of feedback.
To eat, drink, and live in the present, please let your heart be at this moment, and let the thoughts and emotions that pop up repeatedly come and go, and slowly fade away, leaving only the part of your heart that has no "problems".
