There are old grandparents in the pavilion to cool off, there are going to dance in the square, there are young people in the dance I do not know what kind of dance, there are students after class to play happily, there are baby parents with small children, they can not play independently.
Seeing all these lively scenes, I immediately thought of this book, "Lively Earth, Half-Full Life" by Liang Qiushi.
The author Liang Qiushi: a famous essayist, scholar, literary critic, translator, and the first domestic authority on Shakespeare. He is the first authority on Shakespeare in China. He has left behind more than 20 million words of writings for the Chinese literary world, in which his prose creations are particularly outstanding, and he is regarded as "the master of Chinese prose".
As written on the cover of the book, life has always been a little less than full, half-poor, half-rich, and half-self-contained. The world is full of shortcomings, and when we are greedy to pursue a kind of perfection, sometimes it is like the moon in the water.
This book contains more than 60 classic essays by prose writer Liang Qiusi, who speaks of both the multitude of phenomena and the leisurely life. Through the simple and elegant words here, you can appreciate the literary master's open-minded thinking and contented attitude towards life, and find the most comfortable and comfortable state in your own life.
When I opened this book, the first thing I loved was the colorful illustrations on the top, and when I saw these beautiful illustrations, a kind of tranquil mood surrounded me. For example, this one, a young girl under the tree, a moon hanging high in the sky, written under the painting: "Happiness is in the heart, do not pretend to seek outside, seeking that is often not, the more troublesome.
This book a turn of the table of contents, let a person know how much the author of this book like the literati and elegant guests, do not believe you see.
The table of contents is written in such a literary style! The chapter titles of each chapter are so loveable, as well as the subject captions given for each chapter. The essay content inside each chapter is also written before the essay by picking out the key phrases. Gives you a general impression of the thematic content of the essay.
Let's look at the first chapter - the title is: in the colorless place to see the flowers
Have to need more literary people can put this simple text, written into such a let a person's heart. Everywhere in life is a scene, everywhere there is love, and therefore Liang Qiushi wrote: "Life is like a send, I live in the 'House of Grace' one day, 'House of Grace' is one day for me all".
In this chapter, we see the simple side of Liang Qiushi's life, which is no different from our ordinary life. Here, I saw his elegant house, elegant house is not all he has, but, as long as live a little longer, but also produced feelings.
Also saw his side of humor, the home of the mosquitoes and flies also as the population of their own homes, that his home is populous. Even the mosquitoes come to work are written out 13 steps, which makes people smile.
Mr. Liang Qiushi is more than just humorous; he loves birds, talks about trees, talks about sleeping, talks about haircuts, wise bargaining, solemn travel, and so on. No matter which article you take out to read, there is something that can make you feel funny.
When I was in school, I couldn't read prose, so I thought it was so hard to guess the meaning of the passages. But after working for more than a decade, I read prose again and realize that the meaning is in our lives.
Finally, I'd like to show you an illustration from the book, with mountains, water, and trees, under which it says: "The beauty of a good time and the pleasure of enjoying it are everywhere. The wise man enjoys the water, the benevolent man enjoys the mountains. The rain has its fun, the sunny has its marvelous." May you come to read this book Liang Qiusi's "lively earth, half-full life" to give you a calm and light space to enjoy our life.
