The heavy snowfall for several days finally made people suddenly feel the feeling of returning to Beiping. The foggy sky makes the capital feel like a fairyland, and the capital shrouded in fog is a bit real and illusory. The garden and grass are covered with snow-white quilts, and the snow from yesterday and even the day before yesterday remains on the treetops and on the roof of the car, which pulls people back to the real world from time to time. But how to face muddy roads, cold air, you must also be mentally prepared.
The city of Beijing, covered in snow, adds a little warmth to the cold modern architecture. The snow has not stopped, and the palm-sized garden in the community has been lively, and people have gathered together in the cold wind of the snow. The old man no longer seemed to feel that the weather was freezing, and he willingly came out to taste the cold snowflakes. The children were the most excited, and they had already thrown away the gloves that the adults had prepared for them before going out, and held the cold crystal clear in the palm of their hands, as comfortable as eating a popsicle in summer. Some children can't help but put the snow in their mouths, which certainly doesn't taste the ice cream, but they get the most real feeling. is really like a newborn baby, everything must be used with the mouth in order to taste this future life.
The falling snowflakes and the biting cold wind made everyone's faces flush, and I think their hearts must be full of warmth. Because the neighbors who have not been in contact for many days suddenly have a common topic, especially the neighborhood relationship that quickly cooled on days of mutual suspicion, suddenly becomes warm, and everyone talks about the heavy snow with joy, sharing their stories and happiness. Watching the children running around in the snow excitedly, although they may also be worried that they will fall, but there is no sense of warning, maybe because the thick snow can't fall at all, everyone enjoys this rare opportunity to gather in the community.
At this time, there must be a lot of people in the park to watch the snow, although I also like to enjoy the snow, but I think you can enjoy the snow in **, there is no need to run to the park to enjoy the snow. Whether it is in the community, on the side of the road or in the street park, there are all kinds of strange and beautiful snow scenes for me to enjoy. There are many photography enthusiasts or self-leading practitioners, who may go to the Summer Palace, Xiangshan Park, etc. to enjoy the beautiful snow scenes, which may not only satisfy their desire to appreciate, but also realize their responsibility to spread the beauty. They made beautiful ** so that more people could enjoy the beautiful snow scene. In the past few days of snow, many of the ** I have seen are beautiful snow scenes, and it is they who have broadened my horizons and let me see the beautiful snow scenes that I have not noticed before, although the way of seeing is a little different, but it is also immersive. In fact, as long as there is beauty in the heart, beauty can be found in **, beauty is around us, see how we use this pair of eyes to find beauty. Although Lao Tzu said that "the five colors are blinding", we must not ignore the blooming snowflakes.
Heavy snow can obscure something, but it also marks something. When I went out in the morning, I saw the cars on the road, some of them looked like walking pulsatillas, and I could see at a glance that the car had just experienced a blizzard last night, and at the same time, it was as if I saw a thick layer of snow on the roof of my car, which must be scattered with pure snowflakes in the heavenly maiden scattered flowers. And those cars parked in warm garages, or because they are parked in sheltered from the wind and rain, are the ones who come out in the morning. Later, when I saw the snow washing cars in the parking lot, I knew that the owner had not experienced the care of the vehicle for many days.
But there are many things in the world that are not always directly revealed, and there are even many things that are hidden. Some of the garbage that was covered by heavy snow will not only be discovered by the time the flowers bloom the following spring, but may also be smelled already because of the unpleasant smell. There is a saying in China that "paper can't contain fire, and snow can't bury dead children." It means that the truth may not be discovered for a while, but there will be a moment when it will be revealed to the world. Because the facts are there, it's hard not to be discovered. Many things in the world cannot be seen clearly at a glance, and many things in the world are like flowers in the fog, and it is difficult for people to distinguish right from wrong. "It is sensual knowledge to distinguish between white and black, good and evil, and it is rational knowledge to distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil. But no matter how difficult it is to distinguish between right and wrong, it will never change its essence because of a lie, and even overwhelming propaganda cannot deny the existence of facts.
Beijing is a city with severe water shortages, and in the more than 30 years since I came to Beijing, the rate of rainfall and groundwater visible to the naked eye has been decreasing year by year. Therefore, snow has always been relatively scarce, and it has become the hope of Beijingers to be able to snow on time. Of course, I was excited that the long-awaited snow had finally arrived, so I took advantage of the lunch break to take a walk around the nearby garden with the falling snowflakes, and I was in a much happier mood. Although the gray sky has blocked my vision, I look at the vast heaven and earth, and I can no longer see the mountains that are not far away, but the mountains in my heart have always existed, the goal of stepping on the mountains has always existed, and the hope of standing on the top of the mountains has always existed.
I'm not a big fan of photography, and I've always felt that what comes to my eyes is in my heart, and I don't need to take photos to prove that I've been here. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, if it does not enter a person's heart, it will be like a passing cloud, and you will not feel much relief and pleasure. So when I visit various attractions, I basically don't take pictures. Today, I saw the snow that I had been looking forward to for so long, and it finally fell happily, and the snow was heavier than before, and the snow scene was more beautiful than ever. So I asked a friend to take a **, and I suddenly felt that it was best to take another one without a hat, so I took off my hat and took another one. Later, when I compared these two **, I found that although there was no change in the appearance, I always felt that the one without a hat was more real and kind. Although the hat covers the gray hair on the head, it may make people feel younger. From the early birth of Huafa in the year of not being confused, to the pulsatilla in the year of knowing the destiny of heaven. I believe that when Song Xianggong sees me dancing with guns and sticks, he will also feel that a powerless Ermao has nothing to worry about.
A heavy snowfall unifies the landscape of a city, masking many phenomena, but also exposing some problems. What I hope most is that the pure snowflakes can purify our hearts, and the places blackened by all kinds of materialism can be white.
It is better for people to be true to exist, because sincerity can reduce a lot of troubles, and after being simpler, there is no need to weave more lies for one lie. You don't have to think about whether there are contradictions in your opinions, you don't have to get excited about being praised, and you don't have to be frustrated by being criticized. There is no need to pray for the appreciation of some people, and there is no need to ignore the meanness of some people, so that everything is "transcendent".
