The idea of reading 1 with Molly on Tuesday at first glance, this title looks like a love novel! Actually, it is not!
This book tells the story of a dying old man and his students. The old man is a sociology professor. He is old and terminally ill. His student is a journalist and writer. The old man gives the student the last class every week, and the time is Tuesday. This is the origin of the title of this book.
This course lasted for fourteen weeks, and every week the students arrived as scheduled. They talked about the world, self-pity, regret, death, family, feelings, fear of aging, money, eternal love, marriage, our culture and coolness. The last class is the funeral of the old man. Every time the old man goes to class, his illness will get worse and it will be more difficult to speak. Finally, it is up to the students to beat their backs hard and talk hard. He is a lifelong teacher. He left people with infinite thoughts! Maybe talking about life is too big and empty, but life is really mysterious! No one knows what will happen next. No one knows what kind of story will happen in his life. So what are you waiting for, hesitating and grasping today! Every day is wonderful!
The book "Reflections on Tuesday with Murray 2" made me seriously think about death for the first time. Death can give us a new definition of life. The most important thing in life is to face your own feelings and others' feelings frankly. In the words of the book, the most important thing in life is how to give love to others and how to get love. Besides, death is inevitable and unpredictable. Everyone thinks it can't be me. Actually, I think we can think about it. The other is about forgiveness and forgiveness. Thinking about this problem will make your heart more open and peaceful. And then that's what you're looking for now. Is it really what you want? The so-called important things are not more cars, houses and possessions, but what you have now, but what you have neglected. In the morning, your sunshine, clear water, birds singing and insects singing, homemade food, quiet reading, hugs with family, heart-to-heart conversations with friends, afterglow of sunset, children's laughter and so on. I'll read it again.
Tuesday's thoughts with Murray's reading 3. The head of state hides at home all day, regardless of "state affairs"; Factory employees hide in bars all day and gulp beer; All the children don't go to school and watch TV at home. Everyone thinks that the most unfortunate person in the world is himself.
But Murray didn't. He knows that there are more unfortunate people in the world. He didn't feel too sorry for himself. He always looks for luck from his misfortune. "It's terrible only when you feel terrible," Murray said. "It's really terrible to watch my body wither slowly, but there is also a lucky side, just because I have time to say goodbye to others."
Yes, Murray, he did it. He turned his luck into everyone's luck, and he passed on his life experience to Mickey and all the people in the world.
Each of us is born lucky and doesn't need to complain. Sometimes a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. As long as you can treat everything with an optimistic attitude, don't feel sorry for yourself, don't give up on yourself, don't dwell on the past, and live happily every day!
Tuesday and Murray's reading ideas 4. Murray, an old man in pain, taught us a life lesson with his own personal experience, explaining the value and significance of life when he lost his ability to walk and take care of himself and bid farewell to privacy. He regarded himself as a "bridge between life and death", proved to us that the future is short and worthless, and told us that "if you learn how to die, you will learn how to live a meaningful life. Only by brushing the dust off your appearance can you see the true meaning of life. "
Murray reminds us that we need to forgive ourselves as well as others. Forgive yourself for what you should have done but didn't do, and make peace with yourself. The most important thing in life is to learn to give and receive love. We don't envy youth, because we were once young. Love life, live every day happily, and don't lament the passage of time. Accept the gift of natural laws and believe that aging is only a cycle of life. Whether it is physical withering or illness, we should be honest with each other and continue our present life as the deceased.
Reading with Murray's thoughts on Tuesday 5 During his illness, he was very humorous and often joked about his life. "When you lie in bed, you are a dead person", "Love or die" and "Once you learn to die, you also learn how to live". These classic sentences silently tell the feelings of coach Murray at the last moment of his life. Then I think, if you treat every day as your last, you will cherish it very much. An old man who is seriously ill, if he has a perfect and healthy day, will certainly strive to realize his ideal, and coach Murray chose "a breakfast of doughnuts and tea, go swimming, have lunch with friends, then go for a walk in the park and enjoy spaghetti in the evening." From this, I know that life is a never-ending process. Lazy and diligent, no one can give himself a satisfactory answer, because no matter how you spend it, there are more or less regrets, and the person who wrote the comment on this coupon-yourself. Therefore, you are the master of life! )
Read 6 with Murray's thoughts on Tuesday "Every night, when I fall asleep, I die. The next morning, when I woke up, I was alive again. "
Mahatma Gandhi
Finally, I found that crying is also a kind of luck, so that we can no longer ignore the world around us. Murray's favorite poet, W·H· Auden, said: Love or die. If life is to be beautiful, it needs love.
If we are unhappy, we will undoubtedly describe our life with sadness. In the world, people die all the time, even without cause and effect. The iron lock is easy to solve, but the mental prison is difficult to solve. Since death is bound to come back, why escape from such fear and escape into the prison of your own making? Murray spent the rest of his life in this process, always telling us to bravely deal with aging, death and life.
Closing the book is like a bright moon shining on my heart. I'm glad you came.
Seriously drifting across the world, when the years are full, the trivial and moaning must be gone, but love is still there.
After reading with Murray on Tuesday, 7 "The world is too perfect and harmonious to firmly believe that life is an accident without cause and effect."
"My consciousness still exists. I became a part of the universe. "
To tell the truth, I'm afraid of death. But death itself is not terrible. The terrible thing is that my consciousness will no longer exist. I snickered when I watched it there. Unexpectedly, I, a little reader, can have a * * * with Murray.
When I closed the book, I didn't make a silly gesture to celebrate my persistence as I usually did after reading the book. Put the books away. I always sit still. This class is still going on, and the lives of all the students are still going on. I had a lot of questions before. Why is everything so troublesome? Why are there so many problems? What is death? How big is this world?
Where are all the good people? Why are there so many social disadvantages?
Coach Murray told me that the answer is in my heart, in my future life. Everyone should explore his own path and find his own life answer. )
I firmly believe that unexpected encounters in life are lucky.
Reading Thoughts with Murray on Tuesday 8 This book is very easy to read, which is good, because each chapter is dictated by Professor Murray, and the author also records it in very simple words, so that readers can easily enter the professor's room, sit face to face and listen to each class, and then consider and discuss it together. In the past fourteen weeks, we have considered the simplest themes: self, death, love, family, money and so on. With the consideration of a dying person, the old professor hopes to awaken or perhaps guide us to cherish what we have now and the people, things and things around us.
After reading this book, he can't bring you extra energy, but you will remember what he said. When you regret a job, you suddenly feel that I should take action to change, instead of being immersed in this emotion. When you encounter a quarrel with your brother, you will think that Murray lost his friendship because of the quarrel with his brother, and then you will be willing to consider it from the perspective of your brother and untie the knot.
This book is the most superficial truth, helping you to improve yourself and find the blind spot in your present life. I believe that what Mr Murray wants to spread to more people is to face life, family, brothers, cherish himself and live in the present with "love".
Tuesday with Murray's idea of reading 9. These great philosophers cannot explain the problems of ordinary people. As Yu said in the preface, most wise people avoid the problems of life! It is precisely because no one dares to say that he is an expert on life problems. )
Murray lit up Mickey with the candle of his own life, and the light shone into Mickey's heart. Mickey felt sorry for the weak light.
But Murray's humorous and kind words infected Mickey, making Mickey fearless of death.
Molly's candlelight is getting weaker and weaker, and Mickey's passion for life is getting stronger and stronger.
Murray gradually influenced Mickey, the people around him and the people who read this book!
Everyone will get old, but most people know this fact, but they never want to understand it. Everyone wants to be young, and they are willing to stay in the stage of being energetic, strong and strong, and the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. But there was no life experience and experience at that stage. Murray is great. He is willing to understand getting old. He doesn't envy other age stages, because getting old must be based on youth. In fact, we don't have to be afraid of getting old. Death is the other side of life. Getting old is just closer to the destination, and it is a pure land. This should be lucky. After all, there have been, and it is enough to struggle. If we stubbornly stick to a stage and stifle growth, it is against the laws of heaven and nature. I am afraid it is not an act of god, nor is it the preparatory work we should do when dealing with the return of death. We don't need to refuse, we don't need to resist, we just need to live every day seriously. Today is the end of today. Even if I die tomorrow, I will die without regret and have a clear conscience. That's the state of life that we should have in life. Although few people can really do it, even if they only learn a little and apply what they have learned, it will be enough for a lifetime. A clear conscience in this life is enough! )
