Sometimes, I envy the older generation. After working hard all my life, I still miss the past days that are close at hand-there are always memories.

I heard that at that time, I didn't pick up the road, didn't close the door at night, and went to work hungry. I still feel that I am engaged in a great cause between heaven and earth. I don't know what the real days were like. At least, those years that have been talked about by a generation, but which seem so monotonous today, have made these people live a very fulfilling life.

Life is getting better. Modern people don't have to worry about food and clothing as before, but there seems to be little satisfaction and happiness. With the increasingly fierce competition and rapid economic development, people are facing more and more pressure and crisis awareness. In addition to safety and health, this generation is trying to live a life without worries, so that parents can enjoy their old age and their children can have no regrets. For the sake of material benefits, I try my best to strive for my father's ability and efforts, and torture myself into anxiety, depression, and even a lot of hair loss and white hair, so as to enhance my surprised eyes and unnecessary turn around.

"I am old" and "I am young" are all right. Is the key they want to pay really what they need? Have you ever heard their voices when you are busy? Stop a little and suddenly look back, will you feel that you just want too much?

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if the ideal life really came true? All wishes can be realized. What's the point of enjoying life to the extreme? Are you going to end your life immediately? Or waste the rest of the good time in the constant search for elixir of life for no reason? -but even if you can really die, what's the point? Isn't it lonely to live too long?

Even if you sit on gold, when the fanatical joy fades quietly, when the silent night comes, when a person can't sleep alone, facing the silent wall, won't there be endless emptiness and endless feeling of falling? -Poor years, thinking about tomorrow's prosperity all day, sometimes will you be inexplicably upset and feel that life is boring?

I am afraid that people live in this world not only for food and clothing, but also for personal material interests. Otherwise, how can man be different from other animals and become the master of all things, and how can he create brilliant human civilization? People can become the world because they have ideas-only the unexpected is impossible. Everyone is an independent and thoughtful individual, and life is so short and fragile that equality, freedom and "human rights" are derived from it.

Under the guise of human rights, some western countries have done things that make people lose their glasses: for example, throwing a mobile phone contest and a beautiful ass contest, being a news anchor, being able to undress while broadcasting, enjoying running, allowing private guns, popular wife-swapping games, having sex parties, extraditing soldiers who committed heinous crimes to China for trial, and then releasing them without charge ... All kinds of behaviors seem ridiculous.

The pursuit of personal interests, developed to the extreme, is selfish desire. No morality, no black and white, no right or wrong. A society without rules has various behaviors and customs, and it will return to its original state, with only fighting and killing and no order. A person who has no heart will be confused and at a loss.

"Heart pillar" refers to the soul. Man must have a soul. This has nothing to do with whether the body dies or disappears. A person with a soul will understand what he needs, what he wants to do and why he came here in this life. Even if the body no longer exists, it will at least leave some valuable aftertaste for the living. Unfortunately, there seem to be fewer and fewer people with "souls"; The beliefs respected by the older generation are getting weaker and weaker for the younger generation.

People pursue fame and fortune. The more expensive the house they live in, the more beautiful the clothes they wear, the more fashionable the mobile phone and the more convenient the means of transportation. Talking to people means how many clothes and things to buy, how much to pay, how to live in a new house, how to treat people for promotion, how to call each other brothers on the wine table, how to become strangers the next day, and gradually, life becomes only these; Gradually, I got lost in this constant coping and vanity. When I really face myself, I will feel that the world is getting worse and worse, and I will feel that the beautiful and sincere feelings seem to have disappeared. I can't figure out why or what I want to do. I am eager to be cared for, but I have never paid my true feelings or made any efforts. All I know is that I can't believe it easily, including all previous philosophies and all established rules.

It's just that people always have to believe something. It is said that life is like a play, everyone is a player in the play, so there should be no audience. Wouldn't it be lonely if you couldn't devote yourself to your role? Otherwise, what is the meaning of life?

People have a "soul", in fact, this "soul" is their own. Intentionally or unintentionally, some people are born with souls, while others are acquired, which is related to everyone's educational process and social experience; Natural people are unintentional, and unintentional people will take the initiative to implement their own beliefs and demand themselves and others with such a code of conduct; Interested people are above the "soul theory", deliberately determined for themselves, with a certain compulsion, forcing themselves to believe and implement. The former lives a happier life and has no regrets until death; The latter is more painful-compulsive pain. It's good to get used to it gradually, but it's always tangled if you can't adapt. And * for pain, the mentality is easily distorted, and there is no "soul".

People without souls have no souls, or believe in "souls" but have not found themselves yet; Or don't believe in "soul" at all. Most of these people are dangerous, eager to find excitement and even do all kinds of things that make people feel unreasonable. In the final analysis, it is a stinking skin, like a machine without a shaft, running wildly, not far from the time of destruction. Don't know the future, don't want to change, don't care about anything. Like people who are drunk and depressed all day, most of them are.

Looking for "soul" is different from "pursuing ideal". "Soul" is an individual's code of conduct and value, and ideal can include responsibility, either to oneself or to others. Ideal is a happy state of life, with a certain purpose and utility. The road to the ideal is mostly difficult. The "soul" only belongs to itself, and you can fight for it all your life and enjoy it. It can transcend life and death, face all physical torture with magnanimity, stand the test of all bad environments-and control and direct others to do all seemingly unreasonable behaviors. Those who create souls, spread souls and implant them in other people's hearts can become masters and useful tools for power followers. People with souls are happy, and they finally know the meaning of their existence.

What modern people lack and need is "soul". There seems to be no room for anything but interests in my eyes and heart. People are getting more and more sophisticated, and they have been trying their best for their own selfish desires, but they have never faced up to whether they still have a soul or whether they are their own masters.

There is a couplet in A Dream of Red Mansions, which makes Baoyu look unlucky and disgusting. "Everything is clear and learned, and human feelings are articles." Mr. Cao has been down and out all his life, and his temperament is still extremely noble. What he left to the world was an incomplete novel, but it was regarded as a treasure by many generations. Today's people can't be as innocent as Baoyu, nor can they be as poor as Mr. Cao. At least, they can always keep some innocence and yearn for innocence.

"Soul" can be a theory, a principle, a virtue and a pure mind. There are only two ways to get it, one is education and the other is media guidance. But first of all, there must be a foundation that is suitable for people now and can cause * * * sounds; There must also be an exchange environment without impurities. Finding the lost soul is a difficult and long process, which requires a communicator who can override everything, and more needs persistent action and determination to contribute to the progress of human civilization.

Reflections on the Second Reading of A Dream of Red Mansions

"Lengxiang Pill" is the crowning touch in Xue Baochai's image-building. Vividly shows the ruthless image of Leng Yan. There is no doubt that Baochai is beautiful. First of all, in appearance, she looks beautiful, "her eyes are like water apricots, her face is like a silver basin, her eyebrows are not painted, and her lips are not stained", and "her bones and muscles are bright and moist, and her skin is rich", but she is naturally beautiful and in her prime. But she has her own ideals and pursuits. She knows that flowers are more beautiful only when they are light, and what she pursues is simple and elegant beauty. She doesn't wear makeup, incense or rouge, but she is elegant. That's how it lives. "When it comes to the house, it's like a snow cave, and there's nothing to play with. There is only one pottery bottle for several chrysanthemums, two books and tea sets. There is a green gauze curtain on her bed and the mattress is very simple. " This description makes us have to admit that her aesthetic taste is elegant and her appearance has become elegant and gorgeous. Yuan's first impression of the apartment can be summed up by the word elegance, just like Jun himself.

Baochai is brilliant and knowledgeable. Her well-educated family environment and clever mind in her childhood formed her profound artistic accomplishment and extensive knowledge. In particular, she is deeply interested in the traditional culture of China, which is ethereal and elegant. His words, his actions, his appearance and his behavior all show this aesthetic interest ... However, there are huge secrets hidden in the whole courtyard of Wu Heng Garden. I only saw different vines and herbs in Wu Hengyuan, and there was no common pollen. These herbs are very suitable for describing Baochai. But in addition to their peculiar fragrance, these herbs have another feature: they are all climbing plants. These climbing plants have the characteristics of flexible coiling, adaptation to the environment and attachment to other things. Hide and preserve kitsch. Suppressing personality to adapt to social laws is the other side of Baochai's personality.

Baochai hopes to read and understand, and be a person with latitude and longitude in front of her. So, bound by feudal system and ideology, she was banned from politics. After being elected to the palace, she pinned her hopes on the honor of husband and wife and persuaded Baoyu to take the road of studying and seeking fame. This is contrary to her usual indifference, because she is eager to be famous. So Baochai is "cold" in shape and "hot" in heart.

In addition, Baochai is not a gentleman's friendship as light as water in interpersonal communication, but a villain's friendship as sweet as honey. She often wins people's hearts with small favors. When she sent medicine to Baoyu, she used the word "entrusted", which shows that her motives are very complicated. One is her reputation for seeking virtue, and the other is her compassion, which is also strong evidence that Baochai is not a cold beauty.

She judges the situation, observes people's hearts, and often tries to figure out Grace's thoughts. This is not a bad thing, but it is an advantage in itself, but it is a bit vulgar if she only uses it to flatter.

Personally, I think Baochai embodies a lot of wisdom and traditional virtues. Imagine that we can survive and develop in the crowded Grand View Garden. Her way of doing things is necessary, and it turns out that her way is effective. In that case, in this competitive era, why don't we appreciate it? Why not learn from it?

Reflections on the Third Reading of A Dream of Red Mansions

After reading A Dream of Red Mansions, the first feeling is that there is joy in sorrow and sorrow in joy. I think it is not only a tragedy with laughter, but also a tragic comedy, which describes the life of three generations of a family. It not only describes the prosperity of such a family, but also highlights its decline. What's more worth mentioning is that the author expressed all the thoughts of that era, the shameless and shameless degeneration of people under that thought. This paper expounds the rise and fall of a family, but it shows the hypocrisy and fraud of that era and class struggle, as well as the greed and decay of the society. The collapse of a family in the author's pen is also the death of this society and this class in the author's pen.

At the same time, the author also focuses on the traitors who love life and dare to resist in the aristocratic family, mourning the victims under the feudal system, but they can't get rid of the hypocrisy of morality and utility. There is a quest for fame and fortune, a yearning for freedom and freedom, discipline and tax drama. In the whole little red book, there is a contest and a competition. Er Yu's love tragedy condensed the struggle without smoke from beginning to end. One is "coming and going when you are clean", and the other is "returning to the fairy when you are well informed". In the whole process, she was persecuted, indifferent and even paid the price of her life. However, after reading this macro view, we lament that Jia Baoyu's love tragedy for Lin Daiyu, and we should also realize that Lin's noble personality was not tolerated by that generation at that time, and it was also incompatible with the social system at that time. Her loftiness, narcissism, inferiority and self-pity also reflect her self-esteem, which is of course the process she experienced and eventually becomes the beginning of tragedy.

A flower burial is now a secular person who can't understand her thoughts at that time. It is commendable for a weak woman to dare to ignore secular constraints and challenge the traditional laws of feudal society at that time. After she suffered numerous devastation, when the end of her life came, Baoyu's marriage accelerated the death of Xiaoyu. On the one hand, it is a celebration of marriage, on the other hand, it is sadness before death. "The day is over! Where is Xiangshan? " The weak woman never gave up her pursuit of freedom until her death.

However, as a natural person in contemporary society, in an economic society without exploitation, oppression and discrimination, shouldn't we break the shackles that don't adapt to economic development, try again boldly, explore hard and develop vigorously? China has been carrying out reform and opening up for 30 years, and the party and the state have been educating the people from beginning to end, making them open, reforming and making them rich. But why do some units and individuals still cling to dogma? Are they not as good as the little girls written by Cao Xueqin? It is true that in reality, there are large and small Wen Qiang who are using backstab, and there are also many gangsters who are muddling the water. Don't be afraid, this is not the era of Lin Daiyu. Everything in reality can't be as confusing as pondering A Dream of Red Mansions. "False is true and false, and inaction is everywhere."
