Scenery along the way Zhang Baotong 2017.2.21
We flew to Lhasa by plane or train. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info If we only look at the scenery and scenic spots of Lhasa, and do not pay attention to the scenery and scenery along the way, then the significance of our sightseeing will be much less. But the truth is that no matter where we travel and sightsee, we always have such a tendency. Yes, we are always very purposeful in life, and we attach too much importance to the purpose and result of something, and we tend to ignore the process of reaching the goal. For example, when we travel by plane or train, people will doze off, play with their mobile phones, or make small talk, and rarely look out the window to the scenery. It's as if the scenery outside the window isn't what we want to see, or it's not worth seeing. Moreover, when we talk about our sightseeing experiences and feelings, we always hear about the scenery and style of the destination, and rarely talk about the scenery along the way.
The scenery along the way is not unsightly, and although it is different from the scenery and scenery of the destination, it also has its own characteristics and differences. Compared with the scenery of the destination, the scenery along the way may be more ordinary, more expansive and more colorful. Whether it is along the railway or the highway, there are endless scenery and scenery that we can see, with farmland and wheat fields, pasture and fruit forests, buildings and cottages and distant mountains and mountains. Even if you sit on the plane, you can see the white clouds above the clouds, which are difficult to see normally, where there are thousands of miles of snowy peaks and huge sea mirages. And these are things that we don't see anywhere in any destination.
Many landscapes are unpredictable and colorful with different times and regions, which will allow you to see a lot, discover a lot, see a lot, and even feel a lot. Many scenery and scenery are still unseen or unheard of, which will leave an unforgettable impression on our memories, gild our mood with a different light color, and make us feel an unexpected harvest. Even if we have seen these scenery in the past, it will make us feel different depending on the mood and season, and it will produce a new feeling.
People sometimes talk about the scenery or places of interest of a place, not really to praise it or appreciate it, but to show the fashion and extraordinariness of their own life. Because in today's society, travel and sightseeing are not only rich and fashionable in life, but also a kind of insight and extraordinary. Therefore, although many people go to a certain scenic spot or scenic spot, or even travel by car, they do not remember deeply and have a shallow impression when they really tell the feelings and experiences of travel and sightseeing. Because his travels are essentially a formality, not an experience. Because he just walked around there, he did not deeply understand the characteristics of the landform and the connotation of the cultural landscape. If you ask him to talk about the scenery along the way, it is estimated that he will not be able to say much. Because throughout the journey, he either ate and drank, or dozed off with his mobile phone, so he didn't regard the scenery along the way as a kind of scenery.
Traveling abroad is not a very easy task for anyone, and in addition to leisure and relaxation, it should also be rewarding. Through a trip or tourism, you should have a deeper feeling of the beauty of life and a new understanding of life and life. The meaning of travel and sightseeing itself is to cultivate our feelings and enrich our sense of beauty. If a beautiful scenery does not arouse our interest and attention, and does not feel and touch us, then it will not have any meaning for us.
We often hear other people's words, even through TV shows, about the beauty and beauty of a certain place and go there. And when we actually come to the scenic spot or the place of scenic spots, we find that the scenery and attractions here are not as beautiful as we originally imagined. This can be a kind of disappointment that doesn't live up to its name. In fact, seeing the scenery is not as good as listening to the scenery, which itself reflects the difference in our ability to perceive beauty. When we listen to the scene, because other people's narration can be exaggerated, colorful, it will make you full of wonderful reverie and imagination space for something you are not familiar with.
But when you look at the scene, the scenery you see can be seen at a glance in front of our eyes, time, space and objects are completely fixed in front of us, without any rendering and imagination? Otherwise, you will feel disappointed that what you are looking at is not as good as you originally thought. Just like we watch the Spring Festival Gala, if this year's Spring Festival Gala is not as good as last year's Spring Festival Gala, we will consider it a failure. We just want to see the gorgeous and dazzling beauty, and we don't care about or pay attention to the plain and unpretentious beauty. It is precisely because of our aesthetic of pursuing the ultimate beauty and ignoring the ordinary beauty that we ignore the scenery along the way and focus on the scenery of the destination. This may be the misunderstanding of many people who appreciate and appreciate beauty. Everything in the world is colorful, unpredictable, and has its own characteristics. Every beauty is a stunning beauty. It's just that some species seem ordinary and plain because they are seen too much, while some species are precious because they are rare. It's easy to blind us to the beauty of the ordinary, but the beauty of the precious is what we're trying to explore. This is the saying that scarcity is precious.
Ordinary beauty and extreme beauty are indispensable to us. Ordinary beauty is set against extreme beauty, and extreme beauty is different from ordinary beauty. It is like the complementarity and contrast of red flowers and green leaves. As long as it is a beautiful thing, whether it is ordinary or extreme, it is beautifying our soul and life, just because of our mediocre and snobbish gaze, we ignore the ordinary beauty and advocate the ultimate beauty, and develop the habit and mentality of disliking the poor and loving the rich and valuing color over vegetarians.
Despite the fact that transportation is now very developed, trains and planes can transport us thousands of miles or more in a day. The time and space of the journey are greatly reduced and compressed, but our patience is getting worse and worse, and our interests are becoming very monotonous and snobbish. We can see many people looking down at their phones in front of the scenery. It seems that the mobile phone is the most beautiful scenery and beauty in front of us, and it is our constant interest and hobby.
As our eyes become more and more focused on our mobile phones, our field of vision is rapidly shrinking, our minds are rapidly desertifying, our aesthetics are becoming barren and boring, and when we don't even care about those places and landscapes, then we may not have the time and interest to enjoy the scenery along the way.
Our life is a relatively long journey, and going to school, working, getting married, having children, and being promoted should all be important life goals for us. Reaching the goal of life is important, but in the process of reaching one goal to another, there is a long way to go, if we omit these processes along the way, but directly from one destination to another, then, our life will be much shorter, and without the process of struggle and trekking, the meaning of reaching the destination is insignificant.
Like a climber, the process of climbing a mountain is long and arduous, and after reaching the top, the climber has only a short time to enjoy the infinite scenery and then has to descend the mountain because the storm is coming soon. Therefore, the journey of our life is the same as mountaineering, the time on the top of the mountain is short, and more and longer time is in the journey. Therefore, it is also very important for us to enjoy the scenery during the trip, and it will allow us to have more pleasing and relaxing times in the journey of life.
