What kind of girl should you be? How can we live out that true self? How should we correctly face the myriad of life, career, and love? Come with me on a visit to the March family in Little Women, talk about the sisters' upbringing, and see what inspiration and help we can have.
The eldest sister Meige is gentle and kind, beautiful and virtuous, exuding the brilliance of motherhood in her bones, after entering the palace of marriage, she is keen on family life, taking care of her husband and housework wholeheartedly as the focus of her life, and her husband dotes on her. However, with the birth of the child, the little woman, like most stay-at-home wives, was gradually distracted by trivial household chores, and she threw herself into the child, ignoring her husband's feelings. Although she is still beautiful, compared with her before, it is discounted in terms of appearance and makeup, self-improvement, emotional control and care for her husband, and gradually there are small quarrels and estrangements between husband and wife, and her husband no longer thinks about going home after work, but begins to envy the fireworks of other people's homes.
Meige also felt the change in her husband, and the confused Meige was very sad, and her mother, who loved her deeply, found the clue, and under the mother's questioning, Meige told her situation. She couldn't understand why she was doing the most tiring work, while her husband snubbed her without any joy, and she now felt that men were the most selfish, and the best was no exception.
Although the mother was deeply sympathetic and distressed by her daughter's situation, she couldn't help but shed tears. But she still pointed out that the root of the problem was Meig's. This surprised Mess and said she couldn't understand it. Her mother told her, "You are the sunshine in the house, and if you are in a gloomy mood, there will be no sunny days in the house." Then the mother made her understand that she had just made the same mistakes that most young people make--- and that she had forgotten her responsibilities to her husband while caring for her children.
Her mother told her to spend time with her husband and exchange ideas with him, so as to improve communication and understanding, and to be able to help each other better. At the same time, we should enrich ourselves more, don't close ourselves in a cardboard box, learn about the outside world, let yourself actively participate in it, and do some necessary fitness exercises. She made Meige understand that children should become a bond that shortens the distance between husband and wife, not a stumbling block between them, that there needs to be a reasonable division of labor between husband and wife, that children also need the company of their fathers, and that husbands should be more involved in some housework and taking care of children, that the children need him, and that husbands will feel that there is something to do.
Meige did what her mother said, and often talked to her shrewd husband, and there was more communication and companionship between them, which greatly enhanced the relationship between them. The children have the discipline of their father, and they learn order and obedience from their father, which makes them grow up stronger, and Meige also does a lot of physical and mental fitness exercises, and has a little fun in moderation. Finally Meige recovered her spirits, stabilized her emotions, the whole person was like sunshine again, their home was like a home again, and her husband was reluctant to go out again unless he took Meige with him. They go hand in hand like a pair of faithful friends, sharing weal and worn. They have found the key that opens the door to happiness in their married life.
I think that I want to grow up and become Miss March, but I am really annoying, I am not happy to wear a long dress, and I don't want to be an aster-style Chinese lady! I just love boys' games, boys' jobs, boys' demeanor. But it's a woman, it's bad enough, it's not a man's body, it's really boring, there's nothing worse than now, I want to go to war with my father, but I can only stay at home and weave things, like a stinky old lady! It was Joe who made these remarks, Miss Joe disdains the world, and only wants to be herself and does not want to be a lady, she is a raunchy tomboy in the eyes of many people, behind the seemingly barbaric growth of Joe, but it is the other side of her kindness, bravery, justice, and helpfulness, she is like an unpolished jade, seemingly ordinary, but in fact, there is infinite energy inside.
When she found that the life of the neighbor boy Laurie was lonely and boring, she stretched out her warm hands and invited him to her life circle, and Laurie's life became colorful, the dark clouds were gone, full of sunshine and laughter, not only Laurie but also Laurie's grandfather gradually became their loyal friend and relative in the relationship with the Qiao family, and he sincerely thanked the Qiao family for the great changes they brought to their grandson.
Joe loves her family deeply and has a strong sense of responsibility for her family, Joe, she used the first manuscript fee to arrange for her mother to take her sick sister to the seaside vacation, she sincerely prayed and eagerly hoped that her beloved sister could be ** as soon as possible. My sister came back from vacation and became healthier, and her mother announced that she felt ten years younger, which made Joe extremely happy, and Jo used the rest of the manuscript fee to pay the bill for the family's butcher shop and lay a new carpet for the family, and her manuscript fee became a boon for the family's food and clothing during that time, and Joe was happy to do it.
Cheerful and optimistic by nature, innocent and romantic, mischievous and cute, with a childlike innocence, Jo calls herself the king of chaos in a letter to her father. She also always brings joy to people, and often makes people laugh, she turns the kitchen into a battlefield, and she makes herself covered in flour and coal dust, and she screams with an unkempt head and a red face: "Is the bread swelling to the outside a successful fermentation?" It made the nanny Sally laugh, and the older sister Meige raised her eyebrows on the spot. After mistaking salt for sugar, and forgetting to refrigerate and spoiling, she messed up a luncheon, and everyone couldn't help but reveal a disastrous appearance, and she was about to cry, and inadvertently met Laurie's eyes, and her faithful friend Laurie bravely chewed on her terrible lunch, but her eyes still pretended to be happy and delicious, and she suddenly realized how funny it was, so she laughed, and the tears of laughter flowed down, and everyone else laughed happilyEveryone talked and laughed, and this unfortunate lunch ended happily. Joe is such a different and cute pistachio, she can bring happiness to ** when she walks to **, even if the scene is bad and embarrassing, she is cute and can always make the painting style happy and interesting. Just like she couldn't resist Amy's coercion and temptation, she had to put on a dress and pretend to be a lady to cooperate with her sister to visit the neighbors, for Joe, pretending to be a lady was simply to let her go to justice, and in the end Joe's words and deeds still disappointed Amy, and she even wanted to rush out of the room as soon as possible with her incurable sister, especially seeing Joe's painting style at this time: Joe was sitting on the grass with a group of boys stationed around, a four-pawed dirty dog resting on the hem of her holiday dress, and a child was playing with a turtle with Amy's baby parasolThe second was eating gingerbread on Joe's best hat, and the third was playing with a ball with her gloves, which seemed to Amy to be terrible, and as Jo was about to leave with her damaged belongings, her guards crowded around and begged her to come again. It was obvious that all of them were having a good time, and they all liked Joe.
Joe has a firm dream, and she has no hesitation on the road of writing, although she has also been questioned by the outside world on the road of literary creation, and has a dilemma between earning money and choosing materials to create. But all this only made the brave girl stronger, and she was still able to say freely: "I will cheer up and write another book." "Even if the book is not written and the wealth is not made, what can be done? I made another friend. Joe said. She has always found true happiness in her life that is not as good as she could see.
Although Jo is usually sassy and frizzy in small things, she is unusually sober and cautious in the face of Laurie's obsession and fierce pursuit of her, she is well aware of the difference between the two, they are only suitable to be friends and not partners, but Laurie does not realize this. She decisively cut off this possibility between the two, and although it was extremely painful for both Laurie and her, time would give all the right answers, and in the end she and Laurie found their ideal partner, and they were friends and family forever.
Beth is a little angel in Linfan, a little saint in the eyes of her family, she loves the people around her, small animals, and even abandoned rag dolls can be cared for by her. As long as she can do it, she will do her best to do it. She once said: "The love of the world is the only thing we can take with us when we leave, and with love, it will be easy to go." Her words interpret the essence of life, and also say that the foothold of life's final destination should be in **.
She said so and did so, because while caring for a poor child who was sick, Beth contracted a terrible illness and nearly lost her life. Even at the end of her life's journey, she was seriously ill and still used her weak hands to make some gadgets for the elementary school students who passed by every day--- threw a mitten out of her window and gave it to a child with frozen purple hands, or prepared a sewing paper clip for the little mother who owned many dolls, or provided a pen pad made of cloth for the children who were crooked and practiced calligraphy, she also made scrapbooks for the children who loved to draw, and all kinds of small stationery. The children saw the kind benefactor as some kind of godmother. "Beth is holy and crystal clear.
The youngest sister, Amy, is extremely self-disciplined, she knows exactly what she wants and actively works hard to achieve it, she has great taste and artistic attainment. Amy has almost strict requirements for her appearance, appearance, makeup, speech and demeanor, and strives for perfection, but not only that, she also attaches great importance to inner cultivation and morality, and when she realizes that she has vain and selfish shortcomings, she is determined to correct them. She has carved her life with great care, which makes her exude extraordinary grace and grace from the inside out, and she will always be the one who shines the most in the crowd, shining and dazzling. She loves to socialize and pursue fashion, but doesn't follow the crowd. Her self-esteem and self-love have earned her a beautiful love and marriage that belongs to her.
I have to mention and thank Mr. and Mrs. March for their example and example in nurturing such wonderful children, who are respected role models and guiding lights in the hearts of children. They gave their children the most precious gift in the world--- that is, noble character and moral sentiments.
Even though they were not wealthy, Mrs. March still took her children to visit the poor Hummel family regularly, which gave the children a compassionate heart, kindness to others, and help others, which also made their love more extensive.
Mrs. March and her husband pay great attention to protecting the children's nature, respecting each child, allowing them to be themselves boldly, encouraging the children's multifaceted interests, and the children have their own anthology club and drama club, where they can unleash their nature, create and perform freely, which greatly stimulates their creativity, independent thinking ability, imagination and self-expression, and also makes the children's feelings more intimate.
Let the children get closer to nature and appreciate the beauty of each grass and tree, the sisters each have a small plot, and Meige's field is planted with roses, green lotus, periwinkle and a small orange tree. Jo likes to experiment, and the garden is different from year to year, but this year it was sunflowers, and sunflower seeds were given to Aunt Giggle and her chicks. Beth's garden is full of fragrant flowers—sweet peas, glauca grass, delphinium, caryophyllus, pansy, lettuce, chickweed to feed the birds, and camphor to attract cats. Amy's garden made a small pavilion, although twisted and twisted, but also very beautiful, crawling with circles of colorful honeysuckle and morning glory, one by one, bunches hanging, quite elegant, and tall white lilies, delicate grass ferns, all strange, blooming at the right time, quite poetic. The children worked happily while relaxing, and went to the embrace of nature! Being with the sun, rain and dew, and all creatures makes them grow up healthier and happier, so they have the magical power given by nature--- that is, the power to forget their troubles and purify their hearts!
Mr. and Mrs. March let the children know that it is extremely shameful to be idle, indulgent and indulgent, and only to care about pleasure, that everyone should not only take care of themselves, that everyone should have the courage to take corresponding responsibilities, and that they should think more about others, and that only by helping each other and tolerating and restraining can they get along harmoniously. Time is precious, so make every day enjoyable and rewarding. Of course, don't work as hard as a slave, but combine work and rest.
They also taught the children that elegance and charm are never made by fancy clothes and gold and silver jewelry, but by accumulating knowledge, developing good character, learning etiquette, and dressing neatly and appropriately, and only through continuous self-cultivation can true elegance and calmness be exuded. Therefore, even if the children of the March family go in and out of the party in not gorgeous clothes, they are still generous, full of vitality and sunshine, full of confidence, and beautiful.
The book "Little Women" is like a key that can help girls open the door to happiness, and I hope that everyone can benefit, and each of us can find that true self! Like them, they are kind, sunny, loving, upright, brave, optimistic, and confident.
