Chapter 65438 +0 Expectations for Travel Jennifer's famous saying: A person must swallow a toad every morning, so as to ensure that nothing more disgusting will happen during the day.
(Comment: I did have similar thoughts when life was really boring. If the essence of life lies in the pursuit of happiness, then few other behaviors can show the enthusiasm and contradiction in this pursuit except travel. No matter how unclear, travel can still express another meaning of life besides hard work and hard work. It will be closer to the truth and more beneficial to admit the basic "difference" between the field trip and the expected trip. It is much easier to find valuable factors in artistic works and expectations than in real life. Expectation and artistic imagination omit, compress or even delete the boring time in life, and lead our attention to the wonderful time in life without embellishing or faking it. As a result, their life charm is vivid and orderly. This charm and order can't be presented in our chaotic real life. When we focus on the pictures and text descriptions of a place, we often forget ourselves ... I didn't think that eyes are actually inseparable from the body and mind that accompany us during the trip; And many times, because of them, what we see with our eyes is even completely meaningless. ..... Body and mind are difficult companions, so it is difficult to appreciate the beauty of this trip. My emotions can't become high with the help of beautiful external things ... human emotions are subject to a rigid and intolerant logic. If we fantasize that the beautiful scenery in front of us can bring us happiness and ignore this logic, then we are wrong. Whether it is something pleasing to the eye or something real, the key to our happiness from it seems to depend on the fact that we must first meet some more important emotional or psychological needs, such as understanding, love, catharsis and respect. In any place, the actual experience is that what we want to see, in the real scene we can see, always becomes mediocre and bleak, because we are anxious about the future and can't concentrate on the present, and our appreciation of beauty is also subject to complex material needs and psychological desires.
Chapter 2 We saw stars in some places on our journey.
Wave; We also saw the beach;
Despite many troubles and sudden disasters,
Just like here, we are always bored.
-Baudelaire's Journey "For me, I always want to be in a place where I don't live now, so going to another place is always a happy thing for me." "Anywhere! Anywhere! As long as it is outside my present world! " Train, let me go with you! Ship, get me out of here!
Take me far away. Here, the soil is full of tears! (All the above are the views and opinions of the great poet Baudelaire on travel, a sense of fatalism doomed to be lonely all his life, which makes the poet full of fear for the world in front of him. Trains and ships take the poet to a distant place, anywhere, as long as it is not here. The take-off of the plane brings us inner joy, because the rapid rise of the plane is an excellent symbol of realizing the turning point of life ... the cloud brings a kind of tranquility. Below us is our place of fear and sadness. And our enemies and colleagues, now, they are all on the ground, insignificant, insignificant. Travel can make people think. There are few places where you can hear your inner voice more easily than on a moving plane, ship or train. There is a wonderful relationship between the scenery in front of us and the ideas that may enter our minds: broad thinking often requires magnificent scenery, and new ideas often come from strange places.
Chapter III Exoticism "Yesterday, we ate in the best restaurant in Cairo," Flaubert wrote a few months after returning to Paris. "At the same time, there was a donkey taking a shit in the shop, and another person urinated in the corner of the restaurant. No one thinks there is anything wrong with this, and no conference semifinals express any dissatisfaction. " In Flaubert's view, they did the right thing. "Camel is one of the most exciting things ... what moves me most is camel (Flaubert). You can rarely find anything else, which is more peculiar and elegant than a melancholy and kind camel. You must go to the desert to see the horizon. They marched in a single file like soldiers. Their necks stretch forward like ostriches and keep moving forward ... "
(Mr Flaubert loves Egyptian camels and donkeys as much as he hates the French middle class. A strange and distant place, where unique animals are often fascinating. So he (Flaubert) put forward a new method to determine a person's nationality: not according to the place of birth, nor according to the family affiliation: a person's nationality depends on the place he likes. "I am not so much a modern man as an ancient man; I come from China, not French. ..... I am the brother of all creatures, the brother of man, the brother of giraffe and crocodile. " When asked where Socrates came from, Socrates replied that he came from the world, not Athens.
Chapter IV Curiosity 1799 In the summer of 1999, a 29-year-old German named alexander von humboldt set sail from La Coruna, Spain, and embarked on a deep-sea adventure in South America. He measures the temperature of the sea every two hours. ..... As soon as he set foot on Venezuelan soil, he immediately devoted himself to the plant research in Kumana. ..... One afternoon, Humboldt measured the circumference of a cactus, and the measured data was1.54m.. ..... There is a stream next to some huts on the plain. Indians all think that the water in the stream is fresh and healthy. We found this stream really delicious. Its temperature is only 22.5 degrees Celsius, while the temperature of the surrounding air is 28.7 degrees. He also wrote excitedly that flies are unlikely to appear above 16600 feet above sea level. For any traveler, the journey of gaining true knowledge is more beneficial than sightseeing. Nietzsche said: "there are always people in history who reflect on the great events of the past again and again." They gain strength from it and often feel the brilliance of human life. "
This is probably the attraction of places of interest. One of the dangers of traveling is that you can't wait to go sightseeing before you accumulate and have the required acceptance ability, which leads to the wrong timing. Just like the lack of a chain to string beads into a necklace, the new information we receive will become worthless and disorganized. Tourism distorts our curiosity because of superficial geographical logic, just like the designated teaching materials of university courses only look at their thickness and don't ask their themes. Chapter 5 "Cockcrow" in Rural and Urban Areas
The stream flows.
Birds chirp,
The lake is sparkling. ...
The mountains are full of happiness.
The fountain is full of vitality.
The clouds are floating.
The sky belongs to blue. "
Wordsworth's various phenomena in nature, including birds, streams, daffodils and sheep, are indispensable because they can correct and treat the troubled hearts of urban people. ..... Going to nature often is a necessary means to eliminate evil in city life. "I was moved by the scenery in front of me.
Before getting drunk, a dazzling dance
It is fleeting, but it is naturally presented moderately.
Eternal things. "
-Wordsworth Wordsworth said that nature will guide us to find "all the goodness and beauty and things that exist" from life and each other. Nature is "the image of beautiful ideas" and has the function of correcting distorted and deformed urban life. If we feel sad for the values of this era or elite, then it may make us feel relieved to think about the richness of life on the earth, and let us remember that besides the career of great men, there are also grass owls singing in Yuan Ye. We are either in an empty and anxious mind, in a "turbulent world", or in a traffic jam in a city, but we can all use the natural sights we see during our trip, such as a forest or a few daffodils on a lake, to alleviate some of our "resentment and despicable desires". Chapter VI Magnificent scenery can only be called magnificent if people feel power, a power greater than human beings, and even a threat to human beings. The magnificent scenery repeats the lesson that daily life often teaches us in a magnificent way: "The universe is powerful, but human beings are fragile;" Human life is fragile and short; We have no choice but to accept the restrictions imposed on our will; A lot of inevitability is beyond our ability to face. Facing them, we can only give in. "We can refer to the scenery in nature that is far beyond human volume, such as mountains, forests and deserts on the earth, to compare the fragility of human beings and make people strong. If the world is unfair or incomprehensible, then the magnificent scenery will remind us that the world is just so, there is nothing to make a fuss about. Chapter 9 The only reason why people are used to being unhappy is that they don't know how to stay in his room quietly. Pascal: The pleasure we get from traveling depends more on our mood when we travel than on the destination itself. Traveling alone seems to have an advantage. Our view of the world is usually greatly influenced by the people around us, and we will reconcile our thirst for knowledge to meet the expectations of others. They may have decided who we are, so we should consciously hide something from ourselves. Being closely observed by our peers will prevent us from observing others. We are busy adjusting ourselves to meet the questions and comments of our peers, and we should make ourselves look more normal ... (A person will not have this concern when traveling) Pay attention to what we see before going far away.
