Reflections on the youth of the chaotic youth 17
On September 22, 2043, at 11:40 a.m., it was time for the two classes of "Selected Works of Ancient Literature" to end. Professor Chen said: "In today's two ancient literature appreciation classes, I think you must have a general understanding of the ancient poetry of the pre-Qin period in China, and today I will assign you an assignment. Please talk about the characteristics of the ancient poems of the pre-Qin period, and talk about whether these famous poems are still of guiding significance for real life. After class, you can also go to the library to check out other famous passages in the Book of Poetry to fully grasp the essence of the Book of Poetry. At this time, the bell rang for the end of class, and Professor Chen said, "That's all for today's class, the end of class." The warm guide shouted, "Stand up." Professor Chen: "Goodbye, students. "Walked out of the lecture hall.
The students were divided into the front and back doors, and walked out of the classroom, and Shen Zhe and I walked out through the back door together. At this time, Huo Caixia said: "Continue, how do you understand the significance of the times in this ancient poem?" I said, "I don't understand this very well, but I always feel that this ancient poem is ostensibly expressing the process of young men and women overcoming many obstacles and pursuing perfect love." But it always feels like the meaning is too narrow. I think this poem has a broader practical significance. ”
Tian Xiaorui said: "Continue, what do you say still has those practical significances." I said, "I don't necessarily understand correctly, but I understand that seeking up and down for the sake of my beloved, regardless of difficulties and obstacles, is a kind of perseverance and pursuit spirit that can be sung and cried." That "Yiren" can actually be regarded as a state of perfection, a kind of transcendence that points to the ideal. This is reminiscent of a novel called Jonathan the Seagull. Jonathan the Seagull never wants to stare at the stinky fish and shrimp in front of him like his own kind, and always wants to fly higher and reach the state of perfection. In order to practice flying, his wings were broken and injured, but he still did not change his original intention. His companions seduced him and ridiculed him, but he persisted in his quest, preferring to go hungry rather than chase what was in front of him. What Jonathan wants to achieve is to transcend ordinary people, to approach the realm of perfection, and to strive to sprint towards the ideal. What the protagonist of "Pu Jia" pursues is also the perfect ideal in his own heart, and he is the person he is dreaming of, so he will not hesitate to seek up and down at any cost, and continue to pursue. For true seekers, the goal is a kind of direction. It is important to achieve the goal, but more importantly, it is the fulfillment and life experience gained on the road to success in the process of pursuit. Life is a process, and the value and meaning of survival exist in the process. In the same way, the value and meaning of the pursuit are also present in the process. If you ignore the process, you are actually ignoring the pursuit itself. The state of perfection is impossible to achieve, both theoretically and practically. In other words, perfection is just an idea, a mind-directed concept. It guides us to move forward in the course of ordinary and trivial life, just like the fire that illuminates the way in the night, the compass on the way to the lost, let us keep moving forward and keep pursuing. This is the true meaning of this ancient poem in today's society. From the pursuit of perfect love to the pursuit of perfect things. ”
Shen Zhe said: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that Brother Yang still has such a talent for recruiting and inducting, and the eldest brother admires you a little." Liu Yuexiao next to her said: "Continue, the depth and breadth of thinking are more than we think, and you will have to help me more in the future." I said, "Do your best." Liu Yuexiao said: "Then I will often trouble you in the future." I said, "Everyone learns from each other and complements each other's strengths, which is the key to progress." Huo Caixia said: "If you continue to say yes, in the future, we will communicate with each other and make progress together." I said, "Okay." At this time, everyone had already walked from the teaching building to the front of the cafeteria, and everyone went into the cafeteria to buy lunch.
After lunch, the students went back to the dormitory to rest. It seemed to be two o'clock when I didn't sleep, and I didn't wake up until two o'clock, because there were no classes scheduled this afternoon, but there were two advanced math classes from eight to ten o'clock in the evening, so everyone didn't get up in a hurry to do their homework, and they were still lazy in bed.
At this time, my mobile phone rang, I opened the phone, and saw that it was Ge Hongxia calling. With a swipe of my finger, I took the call. Ge Hongxia said, "Continue, do you have a class this afternoon?" I said, "No." Ge Hongxia said: "Which is the best." At four o'clock this afternoon, in the small conference room next to the teaching office, all the members of our student union are going to have a meeting to study the work of this year's student union. I said, "Okay, who's going to be there?" ”
Ge Hongxia said: "Director Shi and Clerk Wang of the Teaching Office of the college, it is said that if Dean Sun is free, she will also attend the meeting of student union officials this afternoon. I said, "Dean Sun is also going to attend today's meeting, and it looks like today's meeting is very important." ”
Ge Hongxia said: "Dean Sun attaches great importance to the work of student self-management, and she asked Chairman Sun to convene this meeting, and Chairman Sun entrusted me to inform all of you. I said, "Okay, I know the senior sister, I promise to go, is there anything else?" Ge Hongxia said: "No, I'll see you later." I said, "Goodbye, hang up the phone." "It's still early, take out "Selected Ancient Literary Works", and write the homework assigned by Professor Chen today.
