I don't know where this sentence comes from, but it seems to be very popular on the Internet. I've seen it a lot recently anyway. I didn't take this sentence to heart when I first read it, but after reading it too much, it caused me to think deeply: my body and soul, are you on the road?
My mother is a primary school teacher. I grew up in school and got acquainted with my mother's colleagues. They like to take me and tease me when they have nothing to do. For example, they picked up the official seal of the school and put it on my clothes, saying that I belonged to this school from now on. Ha ... I haven't washed the red inkpad off my clothes for a long time until my clothes are worn out and the round official seal is still visible. For example, once, a couple in a nearby village quarreled and his wife jumped into the river in a rage. The strong labor in the village was fished for three days and finally fished out. A young female teacher wanted to go sightseeing, but she was too timid to go alone, so she asked other teachers to accompany her, but she told her not to go and said she was afraid of having nightmares. When she saw me, her eyes lit up and she even coaxed me to go. I have diarrhea for a whole month. I took all the medicine and tried all the treatments. Later, my grandmother sent my aunt to an ancient road behind my mother's back and brought back half a bowl of magic water from the ancient road. It is said that she is possessed by evil spirits. What they do is more like to let me read, just take a book, turn over a page and say, test you, what is this word? How to pronounce this word? What does this word mean? How to combine this word? How to make sentences with this word? Unconsciously, under the constant "examination" of this group of teachers, I know more and more words, and it is not a problem to read some picture books and cartoons. More importantly, I learned pinyin from my teacher. I can read any word with a small dictionary. When I grew up, I went to school. Sometimes the school holds a student meeting and needs the student representative to speak. After the teacher finished writing the manuscript, he asked me to go on stage to read it, because I know a lot of words, but other children don't know much. They just stood under the stage, envious.
I remember when I was in the fourth grade of primary school, one weekend, my parents took my brother out to do something, leaving me alone at home. I played with other children in the playground for a long time and had a good time. Later the child was called home by his parents. I had to go home and walk around, feeling particularly bored (at that time, TV had not spread to ordinary people's homes), and finally stared at a row of books on the window frame. I moved to the small bench, climbed onto the table, stood on the table and turned over those books. Finally, I chose a thick book without a cover. The first ten pages have been torn off and the pages are yellow. Well, I know most of the words and can tell stories, so I take it down, climb down from the table, sit on the small bench and start reading. Unconsciously, it took me half a day to finish reading this book ... Then, I took it to my room, put it under the mattress and secretly took it out whenever I had the chance. This book is so thick that I haven't finished it for a long time. But I didn't know the name of the book until I finished reading it Later in high school, I found the same book in the school library. This is one of the "three flowers" in Feng Deying, the winter jasmine. The other two flowers are camellia and sowthistle. This is the first voluminous book I have read and the first novel I have read. Up to now, the images of the protagonists in the story and the story can still clearly emerge in my mind and have been fixed in the depths of my soul. Later, no matter where I went, I looked for books to read. I read all the books I could find and forgot to eat and sleep. Even once, I didn't know it because I was reading while cooking, until my aunt next to me smelled the smell of paste and came to help me turn off the fire, saying that my soul had been hooked by books. I saw the boiling mountain that was popular at that time, the morning in Shanghai, exploring the Red Fish Cave and so on. One of my friends also secretly showed me a banned book at that time-The Second Handshake, which was her brother's. It was winter, and she quietly stuffed it in a big cotton-padded jacket before taking it out. Besides, I can only watch it for three days, and I have to return it quickly.
In the second grade, the Chinese teacher talked about Paul? Kochakin's story recited Paul's famous saying: life is the most precious thing for people. Life is irreversible. A man's life should be spent like this: when he looks back on the past, he will not regret wasting his time, nor will he be ashamed of doing nothing. In this way, on his deathbed, he can say, "I have devoted all my life and energy to the most magnificent cause-the struggle for the liberation of mankind." The teacher said that this book was written by ostrovsky, How Steel was Tempered. Let's look for it. I'm interested. I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find it. Later, it was found that there were two books on the shelf of the supply and marketing cooperative. The shop assistant said that a piece of 20 cents, I was afraid I was hungry, only my mother gave me pocket money, 10 cents (you can buy two meat buns). I thought for a long time and got up the courage to tell my mother about it. My mother asked if it was recommended by the Chinese teacher, so she gave me money without hesitation. As soon as school was over the next afternoon, I went straight to the store. God, that was close. There is only one book left, and the other book has been bought by others. I carefully took the book handed over by the salesman, gently rubbed the smooth and thick cover, went home to find the calendar paper, carefully wrapped the cover, and quietly opened the first page ... You know, my mother's salary as a private tutor is five yuan a month! This is my first novel, and I cherish it. After reading it several times, it's as good as new.
When I was in high school, I read more books, and my understanding ability was stronger. I could imitate myself and write. Since junior high school, every weekly diary and composition of mine has been read as a model essay by the Chinese teacher in charge of the class. In addition to reading model essays, high school teachers will also send our compositions for submission. I remember it was a snowy day, and one of my articles won the lottery. The Chinese teacher happily gave me one yuan for writing. I excitedly took this dollar and looked at the envious eyes of my classmates, and my heart was full of joy. That's the first payment in my life! At the weekend, after returning home, I bought 20 sweets at the canteen at the school gate with 20 cents and distributed them to my grandmother, aunt, parents, brothers and sisters. Everyone is eating sugar, talking and laughing, and their hearts are sweet, sharing my happiness together.
In college, it's a vast world, and the books in the library can keep me around all day. After work, I don't have much leisure time, but I still set myself a reading of 60 books a year. The complicated society didn't make me confused or impetuous, but the essence of the book soothed my soul. In my world, there is a golden house in the book, thousands of millet in the book, and Yan Ruyu in the book ... Some people say that I live in seclusion. I meditate on reading, let myself wander in the endless sea of books, meditate ... reading makes me completely calm down and feel the society and even the whole world. I like San Mao's sentence: "the more you read, the better your appearance will naturally become." Many times, you may think that many books you have read have passed away and lost your memory. In fact, they are still in your latent temperament, in your words and in your mind. Of course, they may also be revealed in your life and words. " I often pick up a pen and write my thoughts in the depths of my soul, so that my thoughts can be communicated with readers, and the manuscript fee can also subsidize my family, hehe!

I decided to give it a try, because I have always been a person who only likes reading and doesn't like sports. Physical education class has always been my fear. Once upon a time, I was thin and thin, like a "reed stick", and I was a real "yellow-haired girl". My hair is yellow and dry, and I hold it in my hand, just like catching a withered grass that has not been moistened by rain and dew for a long time in autumn. Later, I got married and gave birth to a child, but my body expanded like a balloon, reaching 150 kg at the fattest time. My colleagues I haven't seen for half a year don't even know me. Physical fitness also drops as fast as a child sitting on a slide, and he breathes when he moves casually. I realized that I couldn't do this anymore. I choose various forms of exercise to keep healthy. I have no sports cells since I was a child, and it took me a long time to learn to jump rope, and my hands and feet are not dexterous. It's a bit exaggerated. When dancing square dance behind others, I often move my feet when others start, and I move my right hand when others extend their left hand. What a poor sense of coordination! But I have healthy limbs. I can always walk and run! I chose walking and running.
At 6 o'clock every day, I get up on time and go to the school playground. At first, I couldn't run, I was panting, and I felt that I was dying. Then slowly, I can run, 65,438+0,000 meters, 2000 meters, and then run more than 3000 meters every day. Feeling better and better, more and more relaxed. When it rains, I run at home, sometimes in the same place, on the carpet in the living room, and enjoy my favorite TV programs; Sometimes I run into the living room from the restaurant, turn around and come out, then run into the bedroom and study, and turn around countless times, and I like my clean and loving home more and more. Go running in the nearby park on weekends, going uphill and downhill, which is very cross-country and can see many interesting things.
I like this sentence very much: "don't show off your wealth, death is waste paper;" Don't show off your work. If you leave, countless people will do better than you. Don't show off your house. Going is someone else's nest. Don't show off your car. Someone else had the car keys when he left! What you can show off is your health. When everyone else is gone, you can still bask in the sun, drink tea and enjoy a healthy and happy life. We should be kind to ourselves, because parts are not well matched and thieves are expensive! Money doesn't necessarily have goods! "
Indeed, think about yourself. After running, great changes have taken place in body and mind. First of all, my physical fitness has been obviously optimized, and I no longer call in sick. The flu is coming. I'll never catch up with that fashion again and go hiking with my colleagues. I'm not the one who's dragging everyone down anymore. During the physical examination, the doctor said that kidney calculi had disappeared and the gallbladder polyp had disappeared. Old classmates would exclaim at the meeting: How slim I am! I haven't seen you for a while. Have you had plastic surgery and liposuction? ..... I was the first person recognized at the university reunion, saying that I haven't changed for so many years (they don't know, in fact, I have changed back). Secondly, my self-control has been strengthened and my personality has changed. I became confident, no longer hiding behind others for fear that others would pay attention to me, and became a joker. I take care of my family's affairs. My family's finances are in good order, the furniture is neatly arranged, the windows are bright and clean, flowers are in full bloom, green leaves are everywhere, and the kitchen often exudes attractive fragrance. At work, I am more proactive. Assigned tasks are always completed in the first time, and I have done everything I can outside of work. Colleagues' requests for help are no longer rejected, and I am happy to share my experience at the conference. Even the books I have read are discussed with you.
Run. There is no difference between people who run and those who don't run every day; Every month, the difference is very small; Although the gap is obvious every year, it seems nothing; But once every five years, the physical and mental state is a huge dividing line. After 10 years, it may be a gap that one life can't reach for another. No matter how busy you are, you should run.
Exercise. The inner impetuousness can easily make us lose ourselves, while exercise can let us completely put down our burdens, enjoy the comfort of sweating and make others envy the pleasure of having a good figure.
The body is moving, enjoying the natural and human scenery all the way; Because of reading, the soul always enjoys pleasure and joy in the sea of books. For a healthy body and a noble soul, whether it is exercise or study, it must be on the road. And I, body and soul, embarked on a happy journey at the same time.
