A poetic face
Dunzhe Ling
I've always wanted to write a short article to explain the relationship between face and mentality. Browsing the web the other day. I saw a netizen say this about Liu Xiaoqing and Yang li Ping. Liu Xiaoqing a face of silicone, embarrassed expression. Yang li Ping has an outstanding temperament and a poetic face in Zhang Fuyou.
Face is particularly important to women, and no woman doesn't want to be beautiful and young. Liu Xiaoqing and Yang li Ping are both entertainers. An actor, a dancer. Obviously, Yang li Ping's artistic path is more single-minded. Temperament is superior to that of Liu Xiaoqing, and she is also reasonable.
"The article is natural and wonderful." This sentence is used to describe literature, and I will use it to describe my face today.
When you were born, you had a face. Everyone will use words like "cute" and "naive" to describe a baby. Laozi said in the Tao Te Ching: "Can you carry your spirit and hug one?" Committed to softness, can you be like a baby? "God and form are one, can't they be separated? Can you be as absorbed, soft and docile as a baby? Baby instinct makes people want to be close and love. So the face is the same as the article. Naturally, everyone has it.
But as soon as I landed, I was restricted by the surrounding environment. Then his original "nature" article began to change. I am very happy today, and I laughed a lot. Still unhappy, often crying. Laugh more, the longer and rounder the face, the better it looks. Crying too much, eyebrows tight, face tight and fleshless, naturally not good-looking.
Chekhov, a famous Russian writer, famously said, "When a person reaches the age of 30, only he can be responsible for his appearance." Schopenhauer thinks it is scientific to judge people by their appearances. Lincoln once rejected a candidate because of his bad face. Zeng Guofan used to look at people's faces and temperament. A famous one is Liu Mingchuan. He was the first governor of Taiwan Province Province.
It is excusable for a child to be ugly before his intellectual development is mature. But after 18, the longer the better. He caused it himself. Everyone is shaping himself every day.
A stingy person will tighten his eyebrows, a greedy person will be cruel, and a cunning person will cut his flesh and show his bones. On the contrary, those who are cheerful, beautiful and kind, with fleshy faces, gray inside and clear eyes.
I like physiognomy, so I have seen many faces. However, as physiognomy says, phase is born of mind.
When you grow up, people praise you constantly and people want to be close to you, then you are a kind, positive and happy person.
If people stop praising you slowly, people will consciously avoid you, so you should look at your face in the mirror and ask your mind.
Many businesses seem to be successful, but in fact they are yellow. Many objects have no news at first sight. Many friends are just fair-weather friends, and none of them are close friends. This is nobody else's problem. Think about yourself.
"The article is natural." You have a good card. "You got it by accident." The world is full of reasonable people, and many people believe it. But in the end, not many people really remain "beautiful". "I got it by accident" is true.
I have carefully observed many people. Including myself. I'm really touched. In 2008, I was sick and worried all day. In just one year, three deep wrinkles appeared on my forehead. I've aged a lot at once. I'm only in my early twenties, and I look like I'm 30. Later, when I went to college, my mood and environment changed, and my three wrinkles faded a lot.
There is also a primary school reunion. In some primary schools, girls and boys are very beautiful. The result is ugly. Ten years have passed, and you dare not admit it at all. Only from their present faces can we vaguely see the beauty of that year. But I can only sigh and say nothing.
Even I think even babies are influenced by their parents' mentality in their bellies. Especially the mother's mentality. The mother is nutritious, healthy, happy and objective, and the child looks great a few days after birth. His face is chubby and white, and his eyes are black. This is a true story, and I have my own feelings.
Generally speaking, you go to see those great artists and literati, they all have their own temperament. Different from the temperament of a businessman. Look at Zhang Daqian, Picasso, Li Keran and Huang, and then look at the faces of literary masters such as Lin Yutang, Zhu Ziqing, Zhang Ailing and Qian Zhongshu. They all have their own world.
The place where everyone stands looks very poetic, jumping in the spring breeze and not talking to himself. People either want to get close, look up, ponder or get it.
Starting today, you should pay attention to your heart and change your appearance. This is more practical, safer and more reliable than plastic surgery.
Don't worry, don't do it, don't get angry, don't scold, don't sigh. . This honey trap, gentlemen, remember to remember.
