When Teacher Ye was giving a lecture at the university, someone asked her what poetry meant to our real life.
Teacher Ye's classes are all about poetry. She gave lectures in Taiwan Province Province, the United States and Canada, and she spread China's poems at home and abroad.
Both at home and abroad, Mr. Ye's classes have attracted many people to listen. So, what's the use of listening to her class?
In other words, what's the use of learning ancient poetry?
This is probably a question of many people. As a Chinese teacher, I have also been asked this question by students.
I remember answering from the aspect of writing. After the students get the answer, they don't question it, but I feel guilty about my answer and always feel that it lacks some persuasiveness.
Teacher Ye's answer made me suddenly enlightened.
Mr. Ye said: "In seal script poetry, the' zhi' on the right is like a foot line, and under the' zhi' is the' heart'. Poetry is your spiritual walk. It can calm your heart and make you have a heart that is not rigid and immortal. It is happy and lucky for people who read poetry to indulge in this beauty. "
Poetry is the walk of our hearts, which makes our hearts calm down and makes us have an inflexible give up.
How well you speak!
We often hear that "life is not just the present, but also poetry and distance", mistakenly thinking that poetry is as far away as distance.
And Mr. Ye told us that poetry is in our hearts.
Distance makes people yearn for it. With yearning, life is motivated. However, distance is always a carrot hanging on the front of the car, and sometimes disappointment is inevitable. On the other hand, poetry can always accompany you-as long as you like.
How rough Mr. Ye's life is. Teenagers lost their mothers, middle-aged women, and spent half their lives wandering in a foreign land. He was unjustly imprisoned and once lived in a fence. It was poetry that gave her the strength to support.
China's poetry can be spread for thousands of years, not only because of its charm, but also because it can bring strength to people.
When we were young, we all recited many poems. Maybe we didn't understand the meaning at that time, just recited it one by one. However, when you grow up, there will always be a moment that reminds you of a poem you once recited.
At that moment, you will realize the profound meaning of the poem and sigh the beauty of the poem; At that moment, your mood was in the poem. When you recite this poem repeatedly, your heart will gradually calm down.
So, please put a poem on your desk and read it in your spare time, so that it can nourish our hearts and give us vitality.
Mr. Ye said that poetry is our walking heart. May there be poetry in our hearts, and may our hearts be full of vitality forever.
