I think the smartest people in the world are actually children and old people. Children are naive and know what they need most. The old man is weather-beaten and knows that he needs nothing; And those ambitious, arrogant young people, many of them are blinded by the world of mortals, trying their best to get things outside their bodies.
The ancients said that "a man will be old, and his words will be good", and the proverb also said that "if you don't listen to the words of the old man, you will suffer in front of you". Therefore, I respect the truth of the people, and I am willing to sharpen my dull eyes and broaden my narrow mind.
I saw Jiang Yang's centennial speech from Brother Tianma's blog post, and I was naturally delighted.
Jiang Yang is a writer, translator and foreign literature researcher. From 1935 to 1938, he studied in England and France. After returning to China, she taught in Shanghai Aurora Women's College of Arts and Sciences and Tsinghua University successively. After 1949, he worked in the Institute of Literature and the Institute of Foreign Literature of China Academy of Social Sciences. His works include Bathing, Six Chapters of Cadre School, The Three of us, Walking to the Edge of Life, etc. He was written at the age of 96. There are other translations such as Don Quixote. Jiang Yang was born in July 19 1 1 year 17, and he was a member of Xuantong in Qing Dynasty for three years. 10 The Revolution of 1911 took place at 10, so she was the same age as the Republic of China. On the occasion of her 102 birthday, reading the centennial speech should be a great pleasure in life.
However, reading and reading, the more you read, the more contradictory and wrong you feel. In addition to "different degrees of exercise, there must be different degrees of achievement; I agree with this slightly positive attitude. Different degrees of indulgence will inevitably accumulate different degrees of stubbornness, while many others dare not compliment. For example, when a centenarian has to rely on others to take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation, how can he say such inappropriate words as "the world belongs to him and has nothing to do with others"? Since "peace of mind is like water, you should welcome every day with peace of mind and get ready to go home", how can you cynically sigh "life is really hard enough ..."? As for the saying that "teenagers are playful, young people are infatuated with love, young people are eager to become famous and have a family, and they are content to deceive themselves in their twilight years", it is even more difficult for everyone who respects their honor to say. Isn't it "self-deception" that she published "testimony" in her later years? Moreover, even if Jiang Yang's centenary speech really existed, it should have been published on 20 1 1, and it should not have appeared recently.
Finally, it was reported that People's Literature Publishing House clarified through the official Weibo that the first words of this article were "I am one hundred years old and have reached the edge of my life. I'm not sure how far I can go, and I can't help living, but I know very well that I will go home soon. I want to wash away the filth that has been contaminated for a hundred years and go home. I don't have the feeling of "climbing Mount Tai and being small in the world". I just live a quiet life in my own land of Xiaotian. Thought of here, my heart is as calm as water. I should greet every day calmly, live every day well and get ready to go home. " It does come from Sitting on the Edge of Life-Answering Mr. Jiang Yang at the Age of 100, but many of the life insights behind it are pieced together.
I have never read Miss Yang's works carefully, so I can't judge the authenticity from her writing style. However, after careful reading, the more I feel that the statement of the humanities society is established.
I like reading, but I don't like reading fashion. It is said that this "testimony" was madly transmitted on the Internet, which was also related to its reprinting by big V such as Kai-fu Lee. Hehe, the national conditions are so!
I love literature, but after I'm fed up with the deception and deception of modern works, I'd rather accompany ancient writers, such as Qu Yuan, Tao Qian, Li Bai, Su Shi and Xin Qiji, laughing and cursing, and expressing my thoughts directly. What an honor.
After that, you gain wisdom. In order to communicate with Brother Tianma in the future, it seems that I should read Jiang Yang's "Walking to the Edge of Life" devoutly, which is her work.
The second thought of Jiang Yang's centennial speech: Jiang Yang is honored as Mr ... A knowledgeable woman is so respected because people sincerely admire her knowledge, morality and cultivation.
I happened to see her century-old speech, plain words, with such strong penetrating power, penetrating into my chest and forcing something out of my eyes. ...
At ordinary times, we always follow Confucius' summary of ourselves and grow up in contrast: standing at thirty, not confused at forty, knowing destiny at fifty ... When youth is drifting away, in fear, in regret and regret, on the way to being photographed on the beach, we pretend to be an experienced person and know everything. How do you feel when you suddenly see Mr. Jiang Yang, who has lived for a century, calm and calm?
When it comes to Mr. Jiang Yang, you can't help mentioning Mr. Qian Zhongshu. They are husband and wife. The first thing we know is Qian Zhongshu, his humorous Fortress Besieged and his besieged theory. His erudition is radiant, which eclipses the gentle and honest talented woman Jiang Yang behind him.
The calm and concise words in Six Chapters of Cadre School and The Three of us make people know this calm scholar again.
After living for more than a century, she witnessed that magnificent history, and those tragic and stormy days are now dusty and frozen into a picture. The pain she experienced personally was expressed in her humorous words today, which was less fierce and cruel at that time.
What kind of mind does she have? What kind of wisdom is behind her indifferent smiling eyes?
"We were so eager for the waves of fate, only to find out in the end that the most beautiful scenery in life is actually inner peace and calmness ... We are so eager for the recognition of the outside world, and in the end we know that the world is our own and has nothing to do with others."
Reflections on Jiang Yang's Centennial Speech 3: When I was reading the newspaper this morning, I read Mr. Jiang Yang's Centennial Speech. Although it was only a few short sentences, I thought deeply.
I'm 30 years old now and I'm reading Mr. Jiang Yang's centennial speech. I wonder if I 100 will have her feelings. Of course, what is my education, status and level, and how can I compare with Teacher Yang? I just want to say, what will happen to me 100 years old? I never knew. But teacher Yang's words really touched me deeply. Yes, "We were so eager for the waves of fate, only to find out in the end that the most beautiful scenery in life is actually inner peace and calmness ... We were so eager for the recognition of the outside world that we finally knew that the world was our own ..." That was really good. Although I have accomplished nothing so far, sometimes I feel calm inside. I have a place to settle down now, and I don't have to run around. I have children now. I just want to be with him, spend every minute with him, feel his joys and sorrows together, be healthy and safe!
I didn't go to work at home for a year. This year really made me crazy from the beginning, and I was ruined. I went to college for nothing, and my ambition ended like this. Wait, isn't being calm and uncomfortable now my change? Day by day. I don't want to live a rich life. I just want my family to have food, health and safety. Some people may say that you are too decadent and have no ambition at all. Hehe, I also know how to say this question. It is certainly a happy thing to realize your dreams and ambitions through hard work. But then again, isn't our goal all to make ourselves happy in the end? We can do anything, can't we? Hmm. How interesting
I don't know, I'm incoherent again, but it makes me think. It's always good to stop for a while, reflect, or review your recent trip, hehe, get rid of the bad ones, sum up the good ones, and then move on with your life. ...
