What does it mean to be "lonely"?

Does depression count, does social phobia count, does a person who doesn't want to go out and just want to nest at home and eat grass, does it count?

People who don't have love in their hearts will never understand what it means to be "lonely."

When Nietzsche rushed out of the house and wept bitterly on the street for a lame old horse, and when Ai Qing wrote "Why do I often have tears in my eyes, because I love this land so much", they are undoubtedly burdened with deep loneliness.

Only with the deepest love can we experience the most piercing pain. In Su Dongpo's "Red Cliff Nostalgia", he started with "the big river goes to the east", and then "the lupine scarf, the canopy is wiped out between talking and laughing", what a pride and what a love, but at the end of the pen turns sharply, "Life is like a dream, a statue is still in Jiangyue", is it pride that sprinkles Jiangyue?It was clearly sad and tearful, a middle-aged man who was nearly fifty years old, and after his belief in cherishing treasure for half his life was ruthlessly destroyed, he was sad and bloody.

You can say that he is a "naïve" who is nearly half a hundred years old, but only true feelings can be heroic, only with blood, can he feel sad, this blood and tears, through the wind and rain for thousands of years, under the Chinese sky, on the red cliffs of Huangzhou, imprinted with two deep words, "loneliness".

"In my back garden, I can see two trees outside the wall, one is a date tree, and the other is also a date tree," ......

I don't know how many people are like me, the first time I saw the article "Autumn Night" in a middle school textbook, I was confused by this kind of writing and expression, what does this mean?I've asked a lot of people, and the answers they give only make me even more confused.

It wasn't until many years later that I, who always spent my monthly salary in the middle of the month, habitually patted my pocket again, one empty and the other ......emptySuddenly, I realized, I understood in seconds. I see, it's called "disappointment, disappointment," and it's a cold state of mind that only those who have been full of expectations will understand.

In reality, in paintings, it is often used as a foil to the dilapidated and ruined walls.

Disappointing, cold, lonely, boring, why is this happening?It is never easy to understand Lu Xun, because first you have to understand the darkness.

As the first part of Lu Xun's prose collection "Wild Grass", "Autumn Night" was written in 1924, 6 years after "Diary of a Madman" became a blockbuster, and 5 years after the "May Fourth Movement" surged.

From the initial uprightness, tenacity, mutual support, to the later parting of ways due to different ideas, and even the degree of attacking each other, Lu Xun, who experienced the whole process, said that there was no fluctuation in his heart, how could it be possible.

In the meantime, after countless warlord melees, "the city head changed the banner of the king", for the youth, students, and workers who wanted to progress, the brutal and fierce suppression was even more day by day, until the "27**" in 1923

The development of the current situation, personal experience, since the "May Fourth", the situation has deteriorated, what I have heard and seen, it is all "dust", there is no hope, and under that "strange and high sky", there are only two "boring" jujube trees left that still insist on standing.

Where is China headed?On this night in 1924, Lu Xun couldn't see a way out, he guarded his broken heart, and all he felt was the boundless cold.

Will there be hope, will there be a way out, he had to ask himself, despair and confusion simply occupied his heart, and he secretly "wiped tears on the last petal of the little pink flower". "Otherwise, it's better to destroy it, it's a hundred", and occasionally even had such vicious thoughts, which made him "eat and laugh" in the middle of the night. Is it vicious, but the world has never treated him like this?

But, no, okay?The "little flying insects" on the glass and the lampshade were dazed, and the moths fought the fire towards the light in their hearts, and they went forward one after another, using life as a paintbrush to draw "a scarlet gardenia", just for them, they can't.

So, while the leaves of the jujube tree were guarding the wounds, he still had to "silently pierce the strange and high sky, pierce the full moon in the sky", and he wanted to tell the "little pink flowers", "autumn comes, winter comes, and then spring comes". This "little pink flower" is you, it's me, it's you and me.

Loneliness, pain, despair, hope, insisting on all kinds of emotional entanglements, wanton flowing, full of emotions to almost **, if the violent emotional twists and turns in Su Shi's "Red Cliff Nostalgia" are more about feeling themselves, then Mr. Lu Xun's "Autumn Night" is undoubtedly compassion for the family and country.

Such a concrete and rich emotion is probably beyond the vast majority of people's cognition of Mr. Lu Xun, but otherwise, how can we truly understand Mr. Lu Xun's "uprightness", and how can we understand Mr. Love, and loneliness.

There is never a smooth sailing in this world, if there is, it is that you have not seen the price, to soothe disappointment, understand despair, learn to live in peace with them, Mr. said, "Despair is vanity, with hope".
