Sake under the cherry blossom trees

“It’s such a joy to sit alone under a solitary lamp and read a book, in the company of the ancients!” Recently, I like the Penguin Little Black Book recommended by the app. The book format is small and thin, and it is very suitable for carrying with you. It is portable, and it is a book in Chinese and English, suitable for reading in fragmented time.

The book "Sake Under the Sakura Trees" is a work by Kaneyoshi Yoshida in this series. On a boring day, I sit in front of an inkstone and have one or two thoughts. Everyone wants to have a beautiful appearance, but for personal improvement in life or to gain more value in life, they need to work overtime or use the 8 hours after work to add value to themselves. People have to stay up late to complete tasks, so conflicts begin. Everything does not seem so beautiful. Instead, there will be entanglements. You want to go to bed early, but the task is not completed, so you can only stay up late to the end. As a result, I stayed up the longest night, put on the most expensive facial mask, and tried to balance myself. This is actually just a psychological balance.

People in this world neither grow old nor die at night. Even if there is a vast world, where is the joy of life? All things in the world are originally subject to change and continuous life and death. Only in this way can they be wonderful.

Of all things born, human beings have the longest lifespan. Others are like mayflies, who are born in the morning and die at night; like summer cicadas, who live only one summer and do not know spring and autumn, but live with a calm and calm attitude, and a year seems endless; live with a greedy and persistent attitude, and always live. A thousand years are as short as a night's dream.

As a passer-by, I want to live in the world temporarily. I want to be comfortable and comfortable in my residence. Although life is like a journey, it may as well be full of interest. But life is fleeting. If you can't grasp the moment and try your best to stretch yourself, wouldn't it be a waste of this time in this world.

Therefore, having close friends in life is particularly important. At least there must be someone who understands you. Conversation with like-minded friends, whether the conversation is about interesting things or boring things, can reveal each other's temperament. If the conversation partner has the same opinion as your own, what difference does it make compared to sitting alone? Therefore, during chatting, we can share each other's thoughts, expand each other's insights, and experience different lives.

Everything has its own different taste as the seasons change. People say that things in autumn are the most interesting. I generally agree and believe that many artistic poems are related to autumn, and many inner states of mind like to be compared with autumn. The chirping birds are full of autumn mood.
