Everything is alive, living in its own orbit, experiencing the ups and downs, joys and sorrows. Whoever tells us what we want to live to be successful is not true, we can only live as ourselves. Only by enjoying this moment is that there may be no meaning in being alive itself, but as long as you are alive, you can find something meaningful. Let me take you to see the vicissitudes of life in "Alive"!
Cry with laughter and live with death!
Fugui, the protagonist in "Alive", has experienced so many despairs and blows, has he really not thought about giving up? I think there is. From his tone that has been tortured to the point of numbness, or from his already flat words, you can see the humility of this man living at the bottom.
But the reason why he can live bravely is because after every blow, there are people who become the meaning of his life. When he was arrested, his mother, wife and children at home became his concern. He lives for himself, but also for the sake of seeing the people he cares about.
Later, his mother died, and the gentle Jiazhen gave him all the love, Jiazhen was originally a young lady from a large family, but she was willing to accompany this man who had nothing to suffer. This warmed the heart of the rich and noble again, and also made him understand his responsibilities and obligations. He began to get rid of his bad habits and began to learn to feel sorry for his wife. Later, the death of his son once again dealt him a heavy blow.
It's really hard to face a cruel life when you're alone. If someone can be our spiritual support, at least we can cry with laughter.
While we are living a good life, there are many people who are still struggling with fate.
Let me tell you a little story. In a fire, a young boy was seriously injured. Although he was rescued from danger by the hospital, he still had no sensation in his lower body. The doctor had to regretfully tell his mother that the child would have to live in a wheelchair in the future.
His mother pushed her son out into the yard to get some fresh air, and then left for something. A strong impulse surged from the bottom of the boy's heart: I must stand up! He pushed the wheelchair away, then dragged his weak legs and crawled on the grass on his elbows, and step by step, he finally climbed to the edge of the fence.
In this way, every day the boy had to cling to the fence wall and practice walking. But as the days passed, he still had no feeling in his legs. As he dragged his weak legs and clung to the fence again, a piercing pain came from his lower body. Gradually, he was able to walk independently, and on the last day, he actually ran in the yard.
In life, no one can defeat you, only you will defeat yourself. As long as you dare to hold fate by the throat, your life will change for the better.
Many times, we are like the rich and noble in "Alive", we will suffer one blow after another, if you can withstand it, then what are these blows? Life is inherently bitter, what we have to do is not to complain about life, but to add some sugar to a very bitter life.
Everyone in this world has a reason to work hard, no matter what that reason is, to live is to live for the sake of living itself. It is said that desire is wrapped in us, but we don't know that desire is also wrapped in life, as long as the original intention remains the same, all the coercion is just the driving force that pushes us forward.
No matter what, a person should not stop moving forward because of setbacks, nor should he give up the desire to live because of difficulties, I think, this is what the author Yu Hua wants to express. Life is not easy, life is not easy, don't give up easily, don't compromise easily.
Yu Hua's "Alive" is a classic that you must read in life, it tells you that people live for the sake of life itself, not for anything other than life. There is nothing better than being alive, and nothing is harder than being alive. I also hope you will read the other three books, "One Hundred Years of Solitude" + "Human Disqualification" + "Love in the Time of Cholera".
I hope you can find what you want from these books, what about the world, what about suffering? I have come to the world to enjoy love, and I have come to the world to enjoy freedom. Click on the merchandise card to buy it!
