10 "I Still Believe"
Text/Feng Tang
The alma mater, Union Medical College, organized several of our students who have graduated for more than 10 years to return to the school, and suggested to the president how to improve teaching, continue the tradition of Concord, exchange life insights with the primary school students, and help them take the road ahead. The north of Dongdan Santiao was demolished to only the Concord Auditorium, the Central Academy of Fine Arts was demolished to only one art museum, the locust tree in the No. 5 courtyard of Santiao was more strong, and the white marble carving Long Dan Majesty who could run up and down was covered with glass and spotlights.
When I talked to the principal, I didn't say my biggest fear, I was afraid that it would be too cruel: nowadays, the foundation of the Concord tradition may no longer exist. When communicating with the young students, the host has been showing his talents, taking off the script for a large number of comments and crossing the bridge, and the old graduates around him talked about medical reform, medical ethics, and medical technology. Looking at the hope of medicine in the motherland in the audience, I felt that I, who had not been a gynecologist for a day since graduation, was a mistake on such an occasion.
When asking questions freely, a boy asked, what we want to know most is not medical reform, medical ethics, and medical technology, but what do you want to tell us most now after you have graduated for so many years? At the time, I thought it was a very good question, and he was actually asking what do I still believe in now? I didn't hug it at the time, and I said three points, actually, I thought of ten points at the time.
First, I believe in my fate.
A result, related to too many factors, is very small, the proportion that can be controlled by people is even smaller, and the proportion that can be controlled by you tends to be close to zero. The principle of large numbers indicates the inevitability of the whole and has nothing to do with the individual. It's like lighting a pillar of agarwood, I know it's going to drift, I'm going to smell it, but I don't know where it's going at a particular moment. If it weren't for Sima Qian's cutting of the chicken in 100 BC, the official history of China would basically be the taste of the chicken. If it weren't for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in 1850, Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang would have been third- and fourth-grade officials, accounting for less than two pages of the "Qing History Manuscript". If it weren't for the troubles in Japan in 1940, Taipei would not have built the Forbidden City. If Lennon had been born in my homeland, if he hadn't gone to the cave, his income from music before and after his death would not have exceeded 100,000. McKinsey conducted a survey among partners, what is the biggest factor in your promotion to partner? The first thing 80% of people talk about is luck. God appreciates food, the energy in your body is lent to you, and everyone will die, "The law should still be abandoned, let alone illegal?" ”
Second, I believe in evil.
I believe in the power of the spirit, the potential of man, the strange, the power, the chaos, and the gods. If you look at the big picture, the earth is a pinball, and if you look at the small one, the sesame seed is a universe, and there are always many more unknowns than the known. My mother's hometown, the Laoha River, has been prevalent in shamanism since the Liao Dynasty. I haven't seen what my mother said, walking on the surface of the lake without sinking, the knife pierces the body, and the blood is not seen, I have seen my mother spit lotus flowers in her mouth after drinking, creating zào Chinese. I asked her why she was always busy, and she said, she has a mission, and I asked what the mission was, and she said, just pull into my life. I believe that she was a shamanic god in her previous life.
Third, I believe in simple happiness.
The meat hand is typing the novel on the keyboard, and the small fish and shrimp are jumping on the screen, murderous and erotic. Glasses that have been frozen for a long time, cold beer, fresh breeze, bright moon, football on the big screen twenty meters away, hot pants and long white legs within twenty meters. Sitting on the road, mosquitoes and vines, alcohol on the head, and the occasional poem. With the pot in hand, the tea in the mouth, reading the 500-page report, and summing up three points, the world is immediately clear, go to the bathroom to urinate, relax the bladder, look around for it, and be full of ambition.
Fourth, I believe in the present.
Don't memorize a textbook five times. Go play ball, enjoy your body, and in ten years your body will be different from now. Go and accompany your current girlfriend, ten years later, she is likely to run away with someone else. Usually, parents leave before we do, so we look at the living people first, and then look at the photos after they leave.
Fifth, I believe in common sense.
Cutting nose hair is more important than wearing a brand-name suit, 300 Tang poems are more important than five lectures, four beauties and three loves, primary school application questions are far more important than college calculus, and knowing how much a ticket from Hong Kong to Beijing costs is far more important than knowing what year Zhu Yuanzhang died. Ask the interviewer to estimate the monthly ticket income of "Impression of West Lake", one ticket is estimated at 20 yuan, one is estimated at 100,000 people, and some open the SPSS in the computer and use multiple regression to build a statistical model. Management is the application of common sense. I believe in the potential of Chinese mainland, 2050 GDP accounts for 20% of the world, back to the proportion of Kangqian prosperity, but I do not believe that Beijing will have Hong Kong's transportation and Taipei's cleanliness in my lifetime.
Sixth, I believe in my true self.
The true self is not the self, the true self is a useless wood in the land of nothing, and the self is a bonsai that has grown crooked. One hundred and eight arhats have different appearances, but they can see the same things, and the same is the true self, and the Buddha is me. One hundred and eight modern bosses had a meeting, and everyone looked at their phones, texted, and thought to themselves: I, me, me, these are narcissistic crooked egos, falling into hell, thousands of miles away from the Buddha.
Seventh, I believe in inheritance.
I believe in craftsmanship, craftsmanship is not the same as natural science, and there is a golden horizontal line between truth, goodness, and beauty, which has been there since ancient times. If you don't get to that level, there must not be many people who know about it, but there must be people who know it. I believe that the craftsmanship can be continued, and the almost broken context can be revived. In the present world, I have seen very good ink, furniture, woodcut, purple sand, embroidery, and the craftsmanship is close to the prosperous era of Kangqian. In this life, I have seen the possibility of the reappearance of the Book of Songs and the Records of the Historians. An old professor told me that the tradition of Xiehe is to "eat hard in the bitter to become a superior person", and now only the first half of the sentence is left, but I still see that the old professors and the students they brought out go to the ward before seven o'clock every day, and the stethoscope is warmed up on their bodies and then placed on the patients, and the ties are always tied in the summer when there is no air conditioning.
Eighth, I believe in the creation of zào.
I believe in a free spirit and independent thinking. Ten years later, Newton gritted its teeth and became an iPAD, and in May of this year, Apple's market value surpassed Microsoft's, and in June this year, Apple launched the fourth generation of the iPhone with one-sixth of Nokia's R&D expenses, "We-changed-everything, again". Despite the increasing size of the Fortune 500, despite globalization, the law of creating, protecting, and destroying still exists, and in the 21st century, millet plus rifles can still defeat aircraft and artillery, and with their own strength, they can still destroy the six countries. Economic and social society, sending a love poem written by yourself a week is still better than sending a MiuMiu bag a week.
Ninth, I believe in moderation.
If you go too far, leave room for others. If you are too rich and enter the wealth list, it is easy to go to prison, and your son is easy to be kidnapped. If you don't have any money, you will easily hate society and start a cult. At work, after 30, you have to believe that calm, it's not a big deal, 80% of the diseases are not cured by treatment. The nine-character mantra of work: no hurry, no fear, no shame.
Tenth, I believe in the two.
One day, driving over the nameless hills, I suddenly realized that the mountain is the mountain, I don't know what you call it, no matter if you build a mansion on the top of the mountain, no matter if you build a convenience store at the foot of the mountain, no matter how much you add an inch, no less than a point, this one, not two. But at this moment, the mountain smiled, she was extremely charming, and her crown was ancient and modern.
