Northern Song Dynasty Su Dongpo, a famous writer during the period, was demoted to Huangzhou for opposing Wang Anshi's reform. In Huangzhou, he wrote two "Red Cliff Ode". In "Ode to the Former Red Cliff", Su Dongpo lamented the changes in the world from the scenery in front of him. He said: "We are taking a tour of Red Cliff today. I think back then, Cao Cao was also a great hero, but where is he now? We are fishing and shrimping on this river. As a companion, as a friend of a deer, we are like a mayfly, living between heaven and earth. We are just as small as a grain of grain in the sea, and the river is endless. How short is our life when we think of it? Can it not make people sad?" Su Shi of the Song Dynasty's "Qian Chibi Fu": "Send a mayfly to the sky and the earth, a chestnut in the vast sea." Life is like a long road, full of miracles and unknowns. Time is like a vast sea, flying into the future. Life and time are closely connected. Without time, would there be life? Without life, time is a waste. Only when life and time are truly combined can our lives be more brilliant and successful.
What is life? Life is the whole process of living in this world. Apart from these misfortunes and coincidences, people live in this world for as little as fifty or sixty years and as many as eighty or ninety years. What can we do in such a long time? You can say too much, you can also say too little. Looking at ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, how many people have truly achieved this and spent their lives perfectly? Too little, as little as a drop in the ocean. Time is time, time flies by. Some people say that time flies, but in my opinion, time is fair to everyone. It is neither generous nor stingy. It just arrives as scheduled and leaves as scheduled. It doesn't pity anyone, and even if you spend a lot of money, it won't give you a minute.
Cao Cao, a hero of a generation, divided the country into three parts and ruled the Central Plains. His generals are like auspicious clouds, and his soldiers are like jungles. The sentence "I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me." reflects his hegemony. At the banquet in front of Red Cliff, a short song line reflected Cao Cao's outlook on life: life is short, enjoy yourself while you can. He is a celebrity of a generation, with great achievements and fame. Although he is world-famous, he is still practicing life, eager to unify the world, eager to govern the country and save the people, and eager to live for another 500 years.
However, he did not give up and still stood up and moved on. On the way forward, he carried a heavy burden and held mountains and rivers in his hands. He cherishes every moment of his life and thinks about great things all the time. Finally, he completes and fulfills his life. The road of life is so long. In modern times, we don't need fame and power, we just need a sincere heart and a desire to realize ourselves. If everyone does their job well at every stage, life will not be wasted. Students must study hard, soldiers must protect their families and the country, and doctors must help the wounded and dead on this basis. Cherish time and persevere, and life will be saved. There will be good results. When you reach your golden years and look back on your life, you will be proud of yourself. The most precious thing in my life is time, the most glorious thing in life is career, and the happiest thing in life is struggle. "Cherish time and achieve life." is not a famous saying, but it is much better than the true meaning of the world.
