"The poor empress returned to the temple, and we chatted about "Liang Fu Yin" at dusk." - Du Fu's "Climbing the Tower" In the first month of 712 AD, the green footsteps of spring slowly moved to the lower reaches of the Yiluo River. In Yaowan Village, east of Gong County on the south bank of the Yellow River, a new life comes with cries. He is Du Fu. When talking about Du Fu, patriotic poems have undoubtedly become the best synonyms for him. But behind the talent there are many bitter stories. In 747 AD, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty held a special examination and issued an edict to recruit people from all over the world who were talented in literature and art. Du Fu thought that the opportunity to show his talents had come, and he happily went to take the examination. However, Prime Minister Li Linfu did not like the newcomers. He was afraid that talented people would enter the court, so he asked the examiner to ask some inexplicable test questions. As a result, no one could pass the exam. This made Du Fu suffer, disillusioned him for many years, and gave Du Fu a heavy blow. of blow. In order to maintain his livelihood, Du Fu began to write letters to some dignitaries, hoping to get their recognition and recommendations. However, what he got was cold water and blank looks. Du Fu still did not give up. In order to describe his ambition, he wrote an article "Three Great Rites" "Fu" was shown to Tang Xuanzong. Tang Xuanzong was very satisfied after reading it and asked Prime Minister Li Linfu to test him again. However, Li Linfu still did not give Du Fu this opportunity as before. Du Fu wrote two more poems about Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty before he got a low-status position. At this time, he was already forty-four years old. I greatly admire the Du Fu described in the author's writing. His literary talent is certainly one of them, but what I admire most is his confidence. Du Fu's official career was very bumpy, but he never denied his talent because of the shock of failure. He persisted from beginning to end, persisting in his expectations for the country and his pursuit of dreams. If the works of the "Poetry Immortal" Li Bai can make people immersed in the romantic beauty of poetry, then the pen and ink of the "Poetry Saint" Du Fu allows us to appreciate the "truth" of poetry - placing our hearts in the beauty of poetry. . When I see Du Fu working so hard to pursue his dream and believing so firmly that he can do it, I keep asking myself: Are you confident? My answer was hesitant. Because I thought I was full of confidence, I became timid after reading Du Fu's confidence. In comparison, my self-confidence seemed too casual, and I forgot the fundamental driving force of self-confidence-the pursuit of dreams. I think this understanding was taught to me by this ordinary but great poet. Although Du Fu was confident, he could not escape the fate. The difficult life and the death of his family also gave Du Fu the opportunity to experience society. He discovered the darkness that reigned, and he longed for the awakening of light. As a result, he wrote patriotic poems one after another, using poems to oppose darkness; using poems to sympathize with the people's sentiments; using poems to serve the country. It is not surprising that he is a patriotic poet, but Du Fu is indeed worthy of praise. It was his tenacious will and unyielding attitude towards life in the face of setbacks that made him what he was. It was his self-confidence that made him what he was. "The Biography of Du Fu" inspired me a lot. It made me love my motherland even more, and at the same time, I also loved myself. No matter how hard life is, it has its beauty. Du Fu is the best example. Perhaps Beethoven and Edison will move us, but I see a different kind of brilliance in Du Fu, a kind of "true love" that all patriotic poets have but are subtle and surprising. I read a good book, indeed.
