What one person eats is a tonic, but what others eat is a toxin. ?Teachers cannot force students to read according to their own preferences, and parents cannot hope that their children's hobbies will be the same as theirs.

3) When studying words, the most important thing is to know the taste. Plainness is the most mellow and lovely, but the most difficult. Why? There is only a slight difference between being bland and superficial. If a writer's energy is insufficient and his literacy, knowledge and thoughts are not enough to enrich him, then he will be in vain. Therefore, both fresh fish and rotten fish can be braised, while fresh fish can be steamed, otherwise the sweet and bad taste will be immediately apparent in the mouth.

7) Occasionally their boat passed an isolated hut, and they saw the hut standing high and sideways, with the sky on its back. Sometimes they saw woodcutter chopping wood. Seeing the hut standing there alone is enough to prove that the people who live there must be extremely poor. The small roof is only covered with wooden boards and no tiles. Su Dongpo was thinking about the labor of life when he suddenly caught a glimpse of an eagle circling so leisurely in the sky, seemingly not thinking about tomorrow at all, so he figured that for the sake of fame and fortune, civilized life would be shackles. Is it worth it? The goshawk flying elegantly in the sky is a symbol of the liberation of the human spirit.

11) Love is a wound that can never be sealed. When a woman loves others, she will definitely feel that she has lost something, which is part of her soul. So she goes everywhere to find the lost part of her soul, because she knows that if she does not find it, she will be incomplete and unable to Calm down. Only when you are with your loved one can you be complete again; but once your loved one leaves and you lose the part of yourself that your loved one took away, you will not find peace again until you are reunited with your loved one.
12) Our national destiny is in a troubled autumn. No matter the life of the country or individual, it will reach a period filled with the spirit of early autumn, with green mixed with yellow and brown, sadness with joy, hope with reminiscence. . At this period of life, the innocence of spring has become a memory, and the lush lingering sounds of summer are lingering. When we look at life, the question is no longer how to grow, but how to live sincerely, not to fight hard, but to enjoy what is left. Precious time does not lie in how to waste physical strength, but in how to preserve strength and prepare for the winter. Feel that you have reached a certain point, settle down, and find the goal you are pursuing. I also feel that I have some achievements that, although insignificant compared to the glory of the past, are worth cherishing, just like an autumn forest that has lost its summer splendor but still retains its resilience to withstand the cold.

17) When talking about Su Dongpo, we cannot avoid the word "qi". Because every literary critic must use the word "qi" mentioned by Mencius when summarizing Su Dongpo's personality. ?Qi? is originally a common word, which means air, gas, atmosphere, spirit, strength, movement, and the anger that is stuffy in the heart. In "Mencius", "qi" is a philosophical concept, similar to what Bergson said "vibrant", which is the "vital energy" of personality. What makes a great man obviously different from an ordinary man is often the difference in energy. In Mencius' philosophy, "qi" is a great moral driving force. To put it more simply, it is the noble spirit of people seeking goodness and justice. This spirit is possessed by everyone and is innate. As long as a person lives in the world, this "qi" can grow stronger due to its cultivation and nutrition, or it can also weaken due to reduction.

This makes us calm and a little melancholy; many people make their lives poetic because of it. But most importantly, we can resolve to live wisely and honestly even though we know our lives are limited.
6) The reason why people are sad is because they don’t see far enough. Before the future comes, how do you know that the so-called predicament now is not a good thing?

We often return to nature, taking nature as the source of truth, goodness, beauty and eternal happiness.

The clear and melodious sound is heard by the older generation, which is regarded as one of the joys of life. In this way, the father can correct his son's pronunciation errors, because beginners naturally have many difficulties in reading classics. Just like Ouyang Xiu and later Su Dongpo both leaned on the bed and listened to their sons reading, now Su Xun is also leaning on the bed listening to the sweet sounds of his two sons reading. His eyes are fixed on the ceiling, and his mood is probably like a hunter shooting his last arrow. But failing to shoot the deer is like setting a new arrow and asking the son to shoot again.

It won't be too late to get to know each other after a few years. You still don’t know what marriage is. Marriage is about two people with different personalities, different genders, and different interests, who originally lead two lives, marrying each other to live one life. Assuming you don't quarrel, there is no sense of humanity at all. You will eat together, live together, sleep together, get up together, and play together. How can there be two people in the world whose habits, tastes, sexual desires, hobbies, and interests are so compatible?

This is because in the age of pursuit, everyone respects everyone's freedom of eating, sleeping and moving, and they will interfere with each other once they get married.
