What is the purpose of my life?
Bertrand Russell
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have dominated my life: the longing for love, the pursuit of knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like strong winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the verge of despair.
I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy-ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought love, next, because it relieves loneliness-that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. Finally, I have sought love, because in the union of love I have seen the mystic miniature of the heaven imagined by saints and poets. This is what I sought, and although it seems too good for life, this is what I finally found.
I seek knowledge with the same enthusiasm. I hope to understand the human mind. I want to know why the stars shine. I tried to understand the Pythagorean power, through which numbers dominate change. A little, but I haven't achieved much.
Love and knowledge, whenever possible, will lead us to heaven. But pity always brings me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain echoed in my heart. Childre & gt& gt
Question 2: The meaning of Russell's life: Why am I alive? Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, dominate my life, namely, the longing for love, the pursuit of knowledge and heartfelt pity for human suffering. These winds blow me everywhere, to the brink of despair.
I have pursued love, first, because it brings me great happiness and makes me willing to sacrifice the rest of my life for a few hours of such happiness. I have sought love, next, because it relieves loneliness-that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold lifeless abyss. I have sought love, finally, because in the vast world of love, I have seen the mystic miniature of the heaven that saints and poets once imagined. This is what I pursue. Although this kind of love seems too beautiful for a person's life, it is what I finally found.
I pursue knowledge with the same * * *, and I am eager to understand the human mind. I wonder why the stars are brilliant. I also try to understand Pythagoras' theory. He thinks that numbers are an eternal force above all flows. I have made some achievements in this field, but not much.
Love and knowledge will try their best to take me to heaven. However, pity always brings me back to earth. The cry of pain echoed in my heart. Children suffer from famine, innocent people are tortured by oppressors, helpless old people become hateful burdens in the eyes of sons, and loneliness, poverty and pain are everywhere in the world-all of which mock the life that human beings should live. I long to reduce evil, but I can't, so I feel pain.
Question 3: Russell's Why I Live and Why I Live Russell's desire for love, pursuit of knowledge and overwhelming sympathy for human suffering are three simple but strong feelings that dominate my life. These feelings, like strong winds, have blown over my turbulent life, sometimes over a sea of pain, to the verge of despair. I pursue love for three reasons. First of all, love sometimes brings me ecstasy. It is so powerful that I often sacrifice everything in my life to experience the joy of love for a few hours. Secondly, love can get rid of loneliness-the shivering consciousness of terrible and lonely people, and sometimes from the edge of the world, we can observe the cold and lifeless abyss. Finally, in the union of love, I have seen the miniature of the paradise that sages and poets in ancient and modern times dream of, which is the realm of life I pursue. Although it may be too beautiful for ordinary human life, it is what I finally discovered through love. I have also pursued knowledge with the same feelings, eager to understand human beings. I am also eager to know why the stars shine, and I also want to know the power of Pythagoras. The possible fields of love and knowledge always lead me to heaven, but sympathy for human suffering often brings me back to the real world. Those painful calls often resonate in my heart. Hungry children, oppressed and crushed people, helpless old people who support children, and the existence of global loneliness, poverty and pain all ignore and satirize the ideal of human life. I often hope to do my bit to alleviate this unnecessary pain, but I find that I have completely failed, so I feel very painful myself. This is my life, and I find that people are worth living. If someone gives me another chance to live, I will gladly accept this rare gift. This article is Boehlandt? Preface to Russell's autobiography.
