【Original】"Half a Life of Flashy and Half a Dream"
Text/Rhyme Shoot Flower Man
Half a life of flashiness and half a dream, half a life of obsession and half a life of pain. A life and a half can appreciate the story of a lifetime, which is the gift of years and the normal state of life. Like spring flowers and autumn moons, each with its own beauty and sorrow, it is interwoven into a colorful and complex picture.
Walking in the bluestone alleys, the air after the rain is filled with a touch of moisture and freshness, as if it can wash away the hustle and bustle of the world. I looked up at the sky, the clouds gradually dispersed, revealing a piece of blue, just like the poem "After the clouds parted, the water flowed for ten years", time flies, and half of my life has passed in a blink of an eye. Those dreams and pursuits have gradually precipitated in the long river of time, turning into memories in the bottom of the heart, whether happy or sad, have become a thing of the past. As Li Bai said: "Those who abandon me cannot stay yesterday; Those who disturb my heart will have many troubles today. "The past has passed, the future has not yet come, only the tranquility and perception of the moment are real.
Walking past a quaint bookstore, my eyes are drawn to a yellowed book of poetry. Gently opened, the familiar poem from "Dream of Red Mansions" came into view: "The paper is full of absurd words, and a handful of bitter tears." Duyun is an idiot, who understands the taste? "Yes, life is like a dream, half a life is flashy, and how many people can really understand the taste? We are all chasing our dreams, but we are also experiencing our own pain. Perhaps, it is these infatuation and pain that constitute the heaviness and richness of life.
"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan." Nalan Xingde's words evoke memories of the past. The beauty of the first encounter, like the breeze of early summer, is warm and intoxicating. However, the passage of time, the twists and turns of emotions, but people can't help but sigh. Those once sweetness and bitterness have now become a touch of indifference in my heart. Perhaps, this is the true meaning of life - there are both good and regretful.
Half a life of glitz, I used to chase fame and fortune, thinking that it was the source of happiness. However, "I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain", when I stood on the top of the mountain and looked back, I found that true happiness lies in inner peace and satisfaction. Su Shi's wisdom made me understand that fame and fortune are just fleeting, and inner peace is eternal. So, I began to learn to let go, learn to cherish the scenery in front of me, and feel every beauty in life.
"How sad can you be? It is like a river flowing eastward. Li Yu's words expressed the emotion in my heart. Half a lifetime of obsession has brought endless pain and confusion. But I also understand that pain is a catalyst for growth, and it makes me stronger and more mature. Every time you fall, it's to get up better; Every tear is for a deeper understanding. I learned to be grateful for pain because it made me cherish happiness even more.
In a half-life dream, I dreamed that I was incarnated as a butterfly in Zhuang Zhou's pen, flying freely among the flowers. The world in the dream was so real, but when you wake up, there is nothing but emptiness. But I am no longer confused, because I know that life is a practice, and whether you wake up from a dream or not, you must face it bravely. Wang Anshi's "not afraid of clouds and clouds, and being at the top" gave me the strength to dare to face reality and move forward bravely.
During this half-life journey, I met many passers-by. They gave me warmth or pain, but they became an integral part of my life. As the poem says: "Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon." "I cherish the encounters I have met and the growth and inspiration they have brought me.
"Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely see Nanshan." Tao Yuanming's poetry makes me yearn for that kind of indifferent life. I longed to get away from it and find peace of mind. So, I looked for a moment of peace in the hustle and bustle, so that my soul could rest. That indifference and detachment became the driving force for me to move forward.
Half a life has passed, and I have learned to appreciate the changing seasons and feel the beauty of nature. Cherry blossoms in spring, cicadas in summer, falling leaves in autumn, and snow in winter are all gifts from nature. I understood the truth of "non-indifferent and unambitious, non-quiet and far-reaching", and also understood the open-mindedness of "pampering and forgetting, and putting the wine in the wind". These poems are not only the sustenance of my emotions, but also the guidance of my life.
Looking back on half my life, I am grateful to the people and things that have accompanied me through it. They make me more mature and stronger. There is still a long way to go, and I will continue to move forward with this understanding. Because I know that only by constantly pursuing and exploring can we appreciate more scenery of life.
Half a life of flashiness and half a dream, half a life of obsession and half a life of pain. This is my story and everyone's story. Let us taste the ups and downs of life and feel the true meaning of life in the company of poetry. May we all find our own peace and happiness in the days to come, and live our true selves.
