Make an appreciative comment

What this article mainly wants to tell us is that Zhuangzi's pursuit of "carefree travel" is a subjective idealistic fantasy, which is impossible between heaven and earth. Zhuangzi wants to transcend time and space, get rid of the influence and restriction of objective reality, forget everything, and realize the "carefree" outlook on life in subjective fantasy. This paper uses fable to express the connotation of this outlook on life by writing fable stories.

Creation background

You may not be able to understand the meaning just by reading the article, but this must be interpreted in combination with the background at that time. Zhuangzi is a philosophical work in the Warring States Period. At that time, China's politics and society were very turbulent, and various ideological trends were complicated. Zhuangzi's thought and life background had a great relationship with the society at that time. The "carefree travel" advocated by Zhuangzi is a reflection and response to the chaotic social state at that time.

Enlightenment of life

This sentence tells us that a truly excellent thing or person, no matter how much praise or criticism he gets, can keep his true and firm belief without external interference. This also enlightens us that we should stick to our own beliefs and values in life and not be influenced by other people's eyes and evaluations.

At the same time, we should keep a modest and open mind, don't be complacent because we get too much affirmation, and don't lose confidence and motivation because we are criticized. On the road of life, we will face all kinds of challenges and tests, but as long as we always adhere to our own beliefs and directions, we will certainly be more determined and confident.
