"Einmal ist Keinmal." - Once is equal to nothing
This is a German proverb. I recently read Milan Kundera 's " The Unbearable Lightness of Being " and saw this sentence.
once equals nothing, and only once does not count.
You only live once in life, right?
So, you can only live once, which is equivalent to never living at all? Is this really the case with
?
Every yesterday and today will become tomorrow's history. What everyone has experienced will become his own personal history. Although not everyone can become a sage, be famous throughout the ages, be admired by all generations, and write autobiographies and memoirs that are circulated, but everyone's experience constitutes the historical memory of this era and this period of time.
I thought of several books by "grassroots" writers that I had read before, such as "Autumn Garden" and "Driftwood" by Yang Benfengrandma, and "In Chaotic Times, Poor Times" by grandma Jiang Shumei. These books all record the family and personal historical memories of ordinary people. Through these memories, we can see how the weak and small fate of individuals fluctuates with the trend in the historical torrent of the great era. It turns out that everyone's unique history is also so meaningful, interesting and profound.
Let's talk about the sentence "Einmal ist keinmal". People do live only once, but this time is not a sketch. Since you can't do it again, you should draw it carefully, draw it carefully, and write it carefully. Living, laughing, crying, loving, and hating are all part of life; getting together, parting, entangled, and resentful are all expressions of emotions; country and family, family and people, people and country, are all part of life. are inseparable. Each person's little history builds the memory of the times and forms a microcosm of society.
Many times, when we look back on the past, we don’t simply miss the good things. We also miss the suffering, the joy, the sadness...
Because those are all important parts of our lives that are not "sketches".
