Writer Chen Zhongzhong once said: "In my experience of reading the book Life, the impact it brought to me was unprecedented, and that feeling I had never experienced when reading any literary work." ”
This ** is the famous work of Lu Yao, the winner of the Mao Dun Literature Award, and is praised as a miniature ordinary world.
The book has a total of 140,000 words, telling the story of the tortuous emotional experience and career ups and downs of Gao Jialin, a rural intellectual young man, in the context of urban and rural life in northern Shaanxi in the 80s.
The struggle between ideals and reality that he faces is not only his personal dilemma, but also the confusion that each of us may encounter.
The twists and turns of Gogarin's life have taught us the importance of the road in life, and have given us more courage and strength when we encounter difficulties.
If you have ever felt lost and helpless in your life, then I suggest you read Lu Yao's "Life".
Before he set foot in the county to work, Gogarin had a special girlfriend in his life.
Her name is Liu Qiaozhen, and she is a beautiful rural girl.
Although Qiaozhen has not been exposed to much cultural knowledge, her innocence and kindness have won praise from the villagers.
In that dark time, she was like a beacon of hope, pointing the way to Gogarin.
Their relationship is favored by the people of the village, and everyone thinks that they will become a happy couple.
However, fate played a joke on Gogarin.
When he used his talent to earn a place in the county's communications department, the trajectory of his life changed dramatically.
The environment there was very different from the countryside, and he was surrounded by many women who admired him.
The prosperity and freshness of the city made the desire in his heart begin to waver.
At the same time, Huang Yaping, a high school classmate who had a deep friendship with him, reappeared in his life.
Her family background is prominent, and she is more in line with the image of a modern urban woman than Qiaozhen, and has many topics in common with Gogarin.
This put Gogarin in a dilemma.
On one side is the unpretentious Qiaozhen, and on the other side is the charismatic Huang Yaping, who begins to make visions for the future.
With Qiaozhen, his life may not change much, stable but lacking in passion.
And with Huang Yaping, he has the opportunity to see the wider world, and may even be transferred to work in the province to achieve greater ambitions.
After weighing the pros and cons, Gogarin made a decision.
For the sake of his future and career, he chose to sacrifice his love with Qiaozhen.
At that moment, he seemed to have forgotten his innocence and persistence.
However, life always teaches a lesson.
The price paid for desire will need to be repaid one day.
Huang Yaping's ex-boyfriend, Zhang Kenan, fell into deep pain after the relationship between the two ended.
Zhang Kenan's mother, seeing her son suffering so much, burned resentment towards Gao Jialin in her heart.
In order to retaliate, she resolutely reported to the Commission for Discipline Inspection that Gogarin had joined the work through the back door.
This report instantly knocked Gogarin's life back to its original state, and he had to return to the village and become an ordinary farmer.
However, Huang Yaping could not choose to spend the rest of her life with a migrant worker for love, and the relationship between the two came to an end.
Gogarin's vision and pursuit of a better life have also become unattainable with this series of blows.
Jia Pingwa said in "Learning to Refuse": "In the face of **, learn to refuse so that you will not go astray." ”
On the road of life, we will always encounter all kinds of **, as the old man Deshun said: "No matter when you arrive, we can't lose our old age." ”
In the journey of life, in the face of all kinds of **, we should adhere to the basic principles of life and choose kindness, in order to ensure that our life road is stable and far.
In "Life", Qiaozhen, a rural girl, touched me deeply.
Although she did not have much education, the tenacity and kindness she displayed were more respectable than those of those who were highly educated.
When Gogarin is in trouble because he loses his job as a teacher, it is Qiaozhen who stands firmly by his side and gives him strength with her unpretentious love.
She is not afraid of the eyes of the world, is not afraid of a hard life, and is willing to work the fields with Garin, and even go to the city to collect manure.
At that time, their lives were simple, but they were full of sincere happiness.
However, Gogarin's accident changed everything.
Just when everyone thought that he would marry Qiaozhen, he chose to spend the rest of his life with the girl in the city, making Qiaozhen suffer the ridicule of the whole village.
Despite the tremendous pressure and ruthless abandonment, Qiaozhen was not defeated.
She didn't let the pain overwhelm her, nor did she let the grief overwhelm her life.
On the day of the breakup, she gave Gogarin the last respect, did not let the tears flow, but said lightly: "I can't read a word, I can't help you, and I have to drag down your work; You go yours and go outside to find a better object. ”
Faced with the sudden changes in life, Qiaozhen did not give up on herself.
She didn't wallow in grief, and she didn't complain.
She chose to be brave enough to accept all that life had to offer.
She toiled in her family's own plot and repaired broken fences.
Then he returned to the ranks of labor, and as usual, did whatever he could.
She lives so freely and tenaciously that people have to be moved.
Gogarin's later regret was perhaps the greatest lesson of his life.
When he finally understands that this rural girl he once disliked is the person he loves the most, everything is irreparable.
Qiaozhen's tenacity, kindness and freedom have become his eternal regrets.
At that time, Qiaozhen was already married to a wife, and her heart belonged.
Her heart could never belong to him again.
As Yang Jiang said: "When we understand the impermanence of the world and learn to accept it, we can calmly face all kinds of unsatisfactory life and live a more open-minded life." ”
There is always a lot of helplessness in life, and different people will have different choices.
Pessimistic people are trapped in grievances, complaints and evasions, while optimistic people can find beautiful bits and pieces in the imperfect world and treasure them in their hearts.
What kind of state of mind to choose is only a thought.
We don't need to complain about the fate of life and lament that life is not easy.
Only by accepting the impermanence of life and turning sorrow into beauty, our life will go more and more smoothly, and life will become better and better.
When life changes, try to accept and let go, so that your future life can be more brilliant.
Just like Qiaozhen, she faced everything with an optimistic and relieved attitude, and finally won the understanding and tolerance of the villagers, and also found her own happiness again.
In the work "Life", there is a character that has to be mentioned, and he has made countless readers awe-inspired.
He is the old man of Deshun.
Although he was alone, childless, and daughterless, he won the love of the whole village.
When he was young, the old man Deshun and the Lingzhuan girl fell in love, and the two fell in love.
However, the tricks of fate separated them.
Lingzhuan's father married her to a merchant in Tianjin, and the two never saw each other again.
After losing his spiritual transformation, the old man of Deshun buried this deep affection in his heart and no longer showed it easily.
He looked down on his marriage, and despite the emotional trauma of his youth, he still treated everyone around him with sincerity.
When his family's fruit trees bear fruit, he gives them to the children in the village to taste, and he also offers suggestions to improve the lives of the villagers.
When Garin was in trouble, the old man Deshun gave him encouragement and enlightenment with his own life experience, telling him to face life bravely even if he suffered.
As Yang Jiang said: "When you look down on everything, life will go smoothly." ”
Only by learning to subtract from life will happiness be additional.
Learn to look at adversity and setbacks for a better life.
When you look at adversity from a different perspective, all the stumbling blocks become stepping stones.
Life should be like the old man Deshun with open-mindedness and detachment, calm and calm, indifferent, and calm life.
Mo Yan once said: "How can there be wealth in the world for no reason, only their own bitterness, this is not fate, but their own choice." ”
These words are like shining pearls, guiding us to the true meaning of life.
Life is full of difficulties and challenges, and we cannot change the problems that life throws at us, and we cannot reverse the trials given by fate.
However, we can decide how to meet these challenges and how to overcome them.
We can choose to face it bravely, choose to deal with it positively, and choose to live optimistically.
Life is like a journey, and we are all the directors of our own journeys.
We can choose the route of our journey, decide the pace of our walking, set our destination, and maintain a positive attitude.
The meaning of life lies in how we choose and how we build our own lives.
