Yuan Dynasty Xu Zaisi Xiaoling says: "A sound of sycamore leaves and a sound of autumn, a little bit of banana leaves and a little bit of sorrow." Autumn sorrow is a kind of sadness in the state of mind. From ancient times to the present, people in the world have feelings when they are in autumn.
Seasonal changes, watching the world and everything from prosperity to scattered. The temperature that goes down every day and the cold autumn wind not only makes the body shrink, but also makes people feel confused and lonely. Whenever this solar term comes, we not only need to add autumn clothes to our body, but also don’t forget to keep our soul warm.
How should a person’s heart keep warm? In autumn, cold winter, I believe everyone has a similar experience: it is almost time to eat, my stomach is so hungry that I growl, my hands and feet are cold. This kind of cold seems to penetrate deep into the bone marrow and tremble in the heart. But after enjoying a hearty meal, my whole body immediately warmed up, and most of the coldness dissipated. I ordered a cup of hot coffee, and I felt even more bright and cold. This is the power of food. As the saying goes: hunger and cold are with each other, and fullness and warmth are with each other. Therefore, if you want to keep your heart warm, you need to add food to it.
What is the food for the soul? What kind of way can I use to supplement it? The easiest way to do it is to read.
Writer Jia Pingwa in the prose "Love Reading" talks about the benefits of reading: "You can understand the greatness of the world, understand the difficulties of life, have self-knowledge, have predicted first, do not be sad for suffering, do not be favored, do not be lonely when you are lonely, and do not be lonely when you are lonely, so you will be dispelled, abandon flamboyant, be self-respecting, self-reliance, self-reliance, neither humble nor fearful, and not flattering.
" Reading is so able to understand life and characterize. Its benefits are like supplementing the mind with protein , vitamins, and minerals, which can make our hearts full and strong.
At dusk, a desk lamp was lit in the study room and the warm color dyed yellow book door was watched. In the tranquility at this moment, there is no longer restlessness and anxiety, only the tranquility of opening a book and the exploration from the heart. Then, we freely gallop across the sea of books and surf our lives. The autumn is cold outside the window and the autumn rain is bay. The house is warm and bright, and the tea fragrance is everywhere. More importantly, the soul absorbs nutrients and gains a lot from this calm reading, allowing warmth to grow from the inside.
The coldness of autumn is caused by the external solar term. In fact, this little coolness in late autumn is nothing compared to the bone-broken coldness brought by the disasters in life. Grand Secretary Su Dongpo experienced ups and downs throughout his life. After being exiled to Hainan in his later years, he saw a "six no" world of "food without meat, no carriage, no house, no illness without doctor, no charcoal in winter, and no spring in summer". Looking back on the injustice he encountered in this life, the coldness that Su Shi experienced in really made him feel heartbroken.
But for Su Dongpo, the most painful thing is not that he has no relatives and nothing is, but that there is no book to read. This predicament made him lose his mind. In desperation, Su Shi and his son began to borrow books and copy books.
friend Zheng Jia will send some books from Huizhou across the sea, which is a huge happy news for them. They arranged the books neatly in the house. In one of the "Two Poems with Zheng Jia", Su Dongpo said: "It's so quiet that it's not the world, but it's so peaceful. Besides, before the past, I can talk to you." During that time, the father and son sang together with poems, with deep feelings and a deep interest. In this sad years of exile, it is the books that comforted their biting coldness in desperate situations.
is much warmer than Dongpo father and son. The vast sea of books allows us to raft and dive at will. Late autumn is the opportunity for us to select those good books with positive energy to boost our minds.
Once I learned about the beauty of the year in Japanese culture because of reading the " Weeds" by Japanese writer Liu Zongmin. Especially the songs "Seven Grasses in Spring" and "Seven Grasses in Autumn" are even more moved. Japan has the habit of drinking Qicao porridge on January 7 every year. The seven grasses in the seven-grass porridge also refer to the "seven grasses of spring": celery, shepherd's, mother and son grass, Chinese wisp , Buddha's seat, suckling, radish .
These seven plants sprout in autumn, wearing green leaves through the cold winter, and are tenacious.Drinking the seven-grass porridge at the beginning of the year embodies people's wish to be free from illness and disaster throughout the year. The "Seven Grasses of Autumn" are: Hagi, kudzu , stuncao , samadhi, girl flower, fuji, samadhi . They all grow in the cold autumn, not afraid of wind and frost, and each of them becomes a good medicine to cure diseases and save people.
Through the understanding of these natural books, we can see how many life is challenging the cold and open-minded. The more you read good books, the more positive energy you can give us full of energy and boost our spirits, and the cold and solemn atmosphere of autumn will be wiped out.
Late autumn, when your mind is sinking and irritable, please don’t forget to hold a good book and use the most beautiful poems and the most extensive wisdom to keep your soul warm, so that it can be smooth and unafraid in the gradual transformation of wiseness.
