In the morning, the sky was overcast and the office was a little dark, so I turned on the lights to work.
After a while, I heard the sound of flying insects. Looking up, there was a flying insect about the size of a moth, but not like a moth, smashing around the ceiling. The windows were always open, so it wasn't strange that flying insects came in. I got up and opened all the windows so that the insects could get out. However, the flying insect didn't seem to want to escape, and only flew towards the light.
I looked up and watched, and the bugs were slamming into the lamp more and more frantically. It kept flying, crashing, with great force, without stopping for a moment. Listening to the sound of flying insects crashing, I was very worried. The body of the insect is so weak, but the tube is hard and covered with a metal frame. Every time a flying insect hits it, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and it is destined to hurt itself.
The tube was only two meters away from the window, and the worm could escape by turning around. I searched around to see if there was anything I could do to keep the insects away. Unfortunately, the office didn't have the right tools, and the ceilings were so high that I couldn't hook them. After turning around, I could only watch the flying insects hit the light.
The flying insect tried several times to no avail, but still stubbornly flew towards the same place. Probably because flying insects have an instinct for phototaxis, and when they sense light, they will step forward, regardless of what the outcome is. It was the first time I saw flying insects running to the light with their lives at such a close distance, and I couldn't help but sigh what kind of courage it was.
After a while, the flying insects found a place to settle on the metal shelf outside the lamp, and finally stopped. I let go of my suspense and continued to work at my desk. When I finished the work at hand and looked up again, the flying insects were gone. Hopefully, it has found an exit from the window, flown outside, and be free.
From a human point of view, it is futile and stupid for a flying insect to hit the light. Where there is light, there is not necessarily freedom. Relying solely on light to decide on a destination is bound to be ill-conceived or even wrong. Only by giving up the light in front of you and flying out the window will there be real light. But the flying insects are too small to see that far, so they only run to the light.
After thinking about the narrow-mindedness and pitifulness of the little flying insect, I couldn't help but ask myself. If the light of the lamp is what we have been longing for, we should rush forward desperately when we find that the light is right in front of us. Even if we realize that the light is a dead end, will we be able to turn around and fly out the window in time?
If it takes courage to run to the lights, it takes not only courage to give up the lights, but a more intelligent prediction of the future. Perhaps at different stages of our lives, we have all been desperate to fly to the lights and get bruised all over our bodies. But as long as you figure out the situation in time and find a real way out, colliding with the lamp is just a vivid lesson in life. We have experienced it and will understand that only by giving up the attraction of light can we truly go out the window and into the distance.
