After reading Yu Hua's "Alive", I realized that the greatest meaning of life is to live, and compared with the tragic fate of the characters in the book, the bad things we encounter are not worth mentioning at all.
The protagonist Fugui is lucky and was born in a landlord's house. He was also unfortunate that he lost all his family's 100 acres of fertile land. He was also sober, and in order to continue to live, he leaned over from the young master of the landlord's family to become a tenant.
Son Youqing, a teenager. saved the county magistrate's wife with his own blood, and her life stopped at that moment. And that county magistrate turned out to be a rich comrade-in-arms.
From that moment on, it was as if there was a curse on his fate. The relatives around him are leaving him one after another. The daughter had a difficult birth, the son-in-law was stoned to death by the floor slab, the wife also left, and the grandson also left because of greed. At the end of his life, he was accompanied by only an old cow. Accompany him through the last journey of his life.
Compared to wealth, our life is happy. Happiness is a family eating hot pot together, complaining that the ** of meat and vegetables has risen again. Happiness is that the wages arrive today, and tomorrow there is still a famine behind the buttocks. Happiness is the helplessness when the child happily goes home and sees the report card in his hand.
Happiness is not the meaning of life, the meaning of life is happiness. When you complain about the bitterness of life, complain about the injustice of fate. While talking about this, you should feel happy, because there is nothing more meaningful than living.
Some people read "Alive" and tears wet their eyes, and some people feel compassion for the characters in it. While reading about the tragic fate of others, it also reflects us in real life. Are we like the characters in the book, even if they are miserable, they are still persevering? I have thought about giving up many times, and I am also working hard for the family around me. "Alive" is not about a person's fate, but a spirit, a spirit that does not bow to fate.
The fate of wealth is the epitome of each of our lives, and also the epitome of our entire nation. We have been invaded by foreign enemies and humiliated by foreign powers. After a bumpy journey, we are back on top of the world's nations.
