The first time I saw Yu Hua's Living, I thought it was a complete tragedy. All the relatives are gone, and all the good things are shattered. All that's left is a person, a cow and a memory.

Now read it again and find that living is actually a fable about life. Each of us can find our own points, sadness, patience, life, fate ... this is the charm of living and the charm of all excellent works.

I have carefully read the prefaces of various versions written by Yu Hua for Living, and the last sentence caused me to think deeply: "Life belongs to everyone's own feelings, not to anyone's views."

Yes, life belongs to you. When we cry for the tragic situation of Fu Gui's life, Fu Gui himself, who has long been carefree, has a diluted and peaceful mentality. Don't forget, he sang in the field: "The emperor asked me to be a son-in-law, and I won't come all the way."

Here is another question of "children are not fish".

So our feelings are more for ourselves, and the state of wealth is beyond our comprehension.

In the final analysis, we are all lost in this world, and everyone's road is made by their own feet.

Fu Gui's life is a life of light and darkness, and a life in which a prodigal son becomes a bearer of suffering. Yu Hua's handling of Fu Gui's life trajectory is brilliant, leaving almost no trace, without the sense of procrastination at that time, and the description of suffering also adopts a bystander way without subjective feelings.

In fact, this is life, and all the pains and joys are rubbed in time and happen naturally.

This is the genius of Yu Hua. He said, "What a real writer seeks is truth, a truth that excludes moral judgment. The writer's mission is not to vent, not to blame or expose, but to show nobility to people. The nobleness mentioned here is not pure beauty, but detachment after understanding everything, treating good and evil equally, and looking at the world with sympathy. "

We have reason to believe that Yu Hua knows life, and so does Fu Gui.

Everything in life happens naturally, and living is the greatest strength of being born. "Its strength does not come from shouting, nor from attacking, but from enduring, enduring the responsibilities entrusted to us by life, and enduring the happiness and pain given to us by reality, boredom and mediocrity."

When one day we truly understand living, it shows that we have really experienced suffering, learned patience, shouldered responsibility and understood life.

And really, be a person.

I finally found out that the most terrible thing in this world is actually time.

Time can create everything and take everything away. Fu Gui's wealth and idleness were washed away by time, and Fu Gui's relatives and friends gradually disappeared in time. Time grinds a prodigal son into a peaceful old man, and also hides history and human suffering in the depths.

This is time, as if nothing happened when the wind blew, but in fact, everything happened.

Then, the time we want to feel is a lifetime. Life is a long time, but every time we feel it, the time will be less; The more we feel, the less time we have left.

So maturity is not so good, and understanding is even worse, because what we pay is our time and life.

Fu Gui's memoirs of life, taken together, are a "living". And wealth is a person who can really see his past and really touch the trajectory of life.

Many people can feel the past, but no one can really touch their future. Because people's life is like walking in the dark, each of us is lost.

There are often several lights on the road to show us the way from time to time; There are often supplies and traps on the road, which bring us joy and sadness; On the road, there are often companions and guides, which affect our choice for a period of time.

But life belongs to your own feelings, too many roads, you can only rely on yourself. We will learn from it, but more often we are groping. We have no specific direction. Once you choose an intersection, you have to face the unknown ahead.

The front is always dark, invisible and intangible. Before we die, we are all lost.

Before we die, all we can do is live. "People live for living itself, not for anything other than living."

Now I will be afraid of the future and miss the past, but I want to take my life seriously.

Life belongs to each of us, and the greatest strength of living is living.

I watched Alive again, just want to live seriously.
