What inspiration can we get from Cao Cao’s poems?

I am not talented, I only know his "Gui Sui Shou". Let me explain a few sentences to you.

Although the turtle lives a long life, it still has its time. A soaring snake rides on the mist, but ends up in ashes. "

These four sentences support the rise of things, and the rise is reasonable. They use the tortoise and the flying snake as metaphors to illustrate the objective law that everything in the world is born and must die, and everything that flourishes must decline. "God "A tortoise may live long" means a long life; "A soaring snake rides on the mist" means a high level of speech. No matter how long one's life is or how high one's abilities are, one cannot escape the fate of death in the end, which means one cannot violate the objective laws of nature. Human beings also In this way, if you live a long life and have a high official position, you will eventually become ashes.

Death is equal to everyone, but this leads to two different attitudes towards life. One kind thinks that since everyone is going to die, everything will be empty after death, so it is better to enjoy life in time; the other kind thinks that since we are going to die, we should make life meaningful and valuable. What does the poet think?

"I am an old man, but I am ambitious for a thousand miles. In his old age, the martyr is full of ambition. "

Cao Cao compared himself to an old thousand-mile horse. Although he was old and frail, he still had the pride of galloping thousands of miles in his chest. He said that those who are determined to do something good, Although we are in old age, our ambition will never be depressed, and our pursuit of grand ideals will never stop.

This poem begins with a sigh of philosophy of life and continues with a passionate singing of ambition! , and return to philosophical speculation

“The period of growth and shrinkage is not only in heaven; the blessing of nourishing happiness can lead to eternal life. ”

Cao Cao’s view on life is quite dialectical. He first talked about respecting the laws of nature and that people will always die. Then he talked about how people should give full play to their subjective initiative and be active in their limited life. Be enterprising and make achievements.

Finally, people are not completely powerless in the face of natural laws. Although a person's life span cannot violate objective laws, it does not completely depend on God's arrangements if he takes good care of himself and his body. , making them healthy and happy can also prolong life, right? What Cao Cao said about "nurturing happiness" does not mean doing nothing, sitting and recuperating, but saying that a person's mental state is the most important and should not be depressed due to old age. And to be "ambitious" - to have a never-ending pursuit of ideals and a positive and enterprising spirit, to be always optimistic and striving for self-improvement, and to maintain ideological youth. Cao Cao revealed the importance of human spiritual factors to health through personal experience. In this respect, isn't it another wonderful treatise on health care?

The more valuable value of "Guishu Shou" is that it is a real poem, which opens up a new era of poetry! During the period, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed hundreds of schools of thought and only respected Confucianism, which imprisoned the thinking of the Han Dynasty people for three to four hundred years. As a result, the Han Dynasty literati could not write poetry, but could only write big poems praising the emperor's merits and endless comments on Confucianism. Classics, literature with real feelings and personality could not develop until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the world fell apart, turmoil occurred, and political, ideological and cultural changes underwent major changes. Cao Cao, a great man who loved poetry, took the lead in rebelling against the classics and brought great changes to the literary world. It brought an atmosphere of freedom and liveliness. He "established martial arts externally and promoted literature internally", and gathered around him a large number of literati such as the "Seven Sons of Jian'an". They were all talented people in the world. They lived in an era of long wars and had great thoughts and feelings. He often behaves impassionedly, just as "The Literary Mind Diaolong·Chronology" says: "Looking at the literature of the time, it is elegant and generous, good things are accumulated in the world, and the customs are declining. The ambition is deep and the pen is long, so the story is generous and full of energy. also. "Especially Cao Cao, who composed poems on pommel and horse, and wrote poems on the horizontal pole. His poems are tragic and generous, which shocked the past and present. They are unprecedented and unprecedented. The hearty and vigorous style shown in this kind of passionate poetry is called " Cao Cao is the most prominent representative of "Jian'an style". For thousands of years, Cao Cao's poems have shaken the hearts of heroes all over the world with this "generous and energetic" style and its inherent enterprising spirit. The valuable qualities make Jian'an literature shine brightly in the history of Chinese literature. Zhong Rong placed Cao Cao in the lower echelons mainly because he thought he was "upright" and lacked literary talent. Little did he know that Cao Cao, a heroic hero, was disdainful. Zhong Rong was born in the Six Dynasties. Literary scholars at that time paid great attention to the beauty of literary works. As the saying goes, "Li's poems are worth a hundred words." Zhong Rong's evaluation of Cao Cao was obviously too low. It's a trend. We know that in any literature, including poetry, literary style is secondary to content. Cao Cao's literary status used to be overshadowed by his political achievements and was not taken seriously. In fact, He is a figure who has made outstanding contributions in the history of Chinese literature, especially for his pioneering contributions to Jian'an literature. He should be remembered in great detail (Zhang Tieming)

There is a "divine turtle" in Cao Cao's poems. Even though you live a long life, you will have an end."

The tortoise may live a long life, which means the tortoise may live a long life
