For all of us, life should be endless and matter will develop forever. However, in the rotation of celestial bodies and the cycle of years, we clearly see that the single life owned by each individual is thin and powerless in the cycle of time and space, and our individual is probably not as small as a drop in the ocean in the universe. However, the living don't want to die, even if they are in pain, they still have hope. Therefore, one person's hope for another person is the hope of two people. If the hope of two people continues, it will be the hope of a country. If the hope of one nation is passed on to another, it will be the hope of both nations. If the hope of the two peoples continues, it will be the hope of all mankind and the whole universe. As an individual, the wings of hope are humble, but the great vitality of a species is the cohesion of several humble wings of hope. The individual of human beings is updated from generation to generation, and the history of human beings is unfolding day by day. How many dynasties rise and fall around us? How many civilizations have risen and fallen before our eyes? However, the species of life has crossed the barrier of time and space and stubbornly continued.
"Hold infinity in the palm of your hand and let eternity collect moments" is the original witness of the eternal existence of life. Limited human individuals can weave infinite human history; The infinite space-time universe can be measured by the limited ups and downs of life, and the eternal pen can record the changes of human civilization.
History books can withstand the vicissitudes of time. When the wheel of history runs over the footprint of human development, countless civilizations will bloom on both sides of the road; When the cosmic dust settles on these civilizations, another beautiful spring is about to take shape. If so, whether the concepts of finite and infinite are interchangeable may not matter at all. Then, finiteness will be an endless cycle of time and space, but infinity is a powerful fetter in the depths of human soul. When there is no boundary between finite and infinite, there is no eternity and collection for human beings, let alone individual life and death. This is the real realm of "one flower, one world, one leaf and one bodhi".
"To see a world in a grain of sand and a heaven in a wild flower" is the full confidence and freedom of human life, which is the reason for the origin of a vast species. From the life of a humble individual, we can clearly see the vitality of the whole species, but this is precisely "put infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an instant."
Such a poem, when seen here, should be regarded as an eulogy of self-confidence and freedom in life, but its title is "Naive omen". What does the author mean by "naivety"? Since then, the meaning is not very different? Is it the author's implicit ridicule of life or his helpless masturbation of official career? I'm afraid I can't guess, because my understanding of Blake is only at the level of words. I only know that Blake hates the great philosopher Bacon and thinks that the great poet Wordsworth is "not a poet, but a cult philosopher who is hostile to all real poetry and inspiration." Both sides are romantics and realists, and their ideological differences can be seen. And we can also get some clues from Blake's other poem "Sand": "Laugh, laugh, Voltaire Rousseau, laugh, laugh, but all in vain. You throw sand at the wind and the wind blows it back. " However, if we want to truly understand Blake's original ideas more deeply, we need a deeper dual accumulation of history and literature.
