I have read Long Yingtai's "Child, Take Your Slowly" these days and I have a lot of thoughts. A person's life is so long, from babbling to gray hair, a decades-long scene. During this period, you will grow up slowly, you will experience the first love, you will encounter setbacks and hardships, you will enter marriage and start a family, you will work hard to make money for your children, you will be heart-to-heart for your children, you will be pleased with your achievements, and then you will sigh that life is short, you will feel that life is monotonous, and then you will gradually lose your heart, and then you will never do anything again, and then you will do nothing, and finally the sunset will set.
This book tells the story of Long Yingtai raising his children Hua'an and Feifei. As a mother born in 1952, she has such an educational viewpoint and has to be said to be a successful mother. In that era, when the natural poet Liu Kexiang first got married, he said he would not have children. In such a harsh environment in Taiwan, he must not have children. But a few years later, he held his child and talked with others about his experience as a dad, and expressed his happiness in his heart in a way that was abused and complained. Even though children will bring countless troubles to their parents, they are more of the happiness of the continuation of love. Long Yingtai deeply understood this point. Being a mother is a step in her life. No matter whether she has taken this step or not, she will still grow old and move to the next step. On the road of life, there is no disconnection, there is only going forward.
After Long Yingtai was born in Hua'an, as a mother, she had to serve as the tour guide for Hua'an to understand the world. This is also an important step in Huaan's life, but she is not in a hurry. She hopes that Huaan can take it slowly and perceive the world slowly. She is good at using external things and naturally brings An An into this world. Every morning when I wake up, Long Yingtai takes An An to kindergarten, and I will experience many scenic things on the way. An An is full of curiosity about everything outside and always asks questions. This is probably the reason why children talk too much. They are integrating into this world in their way. Long Yingtai always patiently told him what this is and what that is. Once you go back and forth, An An can recognize these things. When he saw it again, he happily pointed it to his mother. When the child gradually begins to grow up, it must be a mother's relief. The hardship of ten months of pregnancy suddenly became as light as goose feathers. An An enjoys this process, and her mother also enjoys this process.
An An’s father is German and her mother is Taiwanese. The children in An'an Kindergarten are Swiss. When the smart Anan talks to her father, he speaks German . An An speaks Chinese to his mother, while An An speaks Swiss to the children. An An’s father and mother communicate in English, but no one taught him English. The best way to learn a language is to be in the world of this language. An An involves these three worlds respectively. When the child followed Long Yingtai back to Taiwan, on the plane, people thought he was a foreigner and talked to him in English, but he did not respond. When he heard that he was talking about him in Chinese, he communicated with him in Chinese and explained that he knew German and Chinese.
What a cute kid this is. An An learned to say what to someone. In his world, he always thought that the children in kindergartens spoke Swiss. So when he communicated with his Taiwanese uncle's children in Swiss language, he ended up having no idea. In the world of children, everything is so simple. These Long Yingtai did not rush to tell him the language difference between Chinese and other countries a long time ago, but asked Xiao Anan to think about it and discover it himself. Because children don’t need to know so much in advance, maybe not only children, but also adults don’t need to know so much in advance. Just like a young man in his prime, he doesn't have to know the feelings of life experiences of middle-aged people after suffering from the weather in advance.
Later, An An's mother had a younger brother Feifei again. Feifei is relatively young, and her mother always gives Feifei careful care. An An is no longer an only child and shares her mother's love. The young An An began to think that his younger brother had snatched his mother away and that his mother no longer loved him.After Long Yingtai discovered it, he gave him an example of what Feifei had not seen before and An An had already had, and told him that An An had been hugged and loved like this when he was a child. When his mother loved An An, she had not had a younger brother yet, An An enjoyed all her mother's love. And the younger brother, after he was born, he would share his mother's love with his brother. My younger brother is pitiful. An An understood from then on and began to take on the responsibility of being an older brother and take care of his younger brother. Mom was very happy to hear it. When children share something with others, they always feel that the other party gets more, but if they have not experienced such thoughts, how can they understand the joy of sharing with others?
Childhood is the first stage of life, and the innocent and innocent people should not be allowed to know what they will happen in the future at once. If a person knows his future process and ending since he was a child. So what is the meaning of life? A person’s life is not a line, but a curved and unknown curve. Although there is only one end point, what does it matter? When a temporary person looks back on the past, he does not regret me for doing nothing, nor is he melancholy because of wasting his years, because his life is full of joys, sorrows, and bitterness, then he can leave traces of his existence in the world.
Please walk slowly in life!
