In today's fast-paced society, eating is fast food, and the Internet is 5G. In the morning, you can eat meat and meat in Xi'an, and you may eat roast duck in Beijing in the afternoon. Everything is based on the theme of fast. However, the fast-paced one is to make our lives unable to calm down, and the other is the dialectics of life, and it also requires that we sometimes need to understand slower rhythms and methods. Just like reading, whether you want it or not, reading is a process of spiritual cultivation and immersion that requires us to calm down to experience, study, and comprehend. Some fast food books in the world today are simple and easy to understand, but they don't have much nutrition and knowledge. Perhaps it is only for us to calm down, pick up those classic works, turn page by page, study and appreciate page by page, and use yesterday's experience to understand the philosophy in the book. In modern society, electronic products are popular, and people inadvertently slide their fingers on the screen every day without knowing it. Although fragmented reading accurately pushes the knowledge points that we are interested in, it lacks a systematic theoretical knowledge construction and cognition, and we tend to ignore and forget the systematic connection between each knowledge point. Do you have a feeling that every time we pick up a book and let the fragrance of books infiltrate our desire for knowledge, the whole person's harvest is completely different from the experience of reading mobile phones and e-books. This is the reason why we still need paper-based reading in an age when information is flying all over the sky.
Milan Kundera said, slow down, because a free and productive life is not anxious. Indeed, work can never be done, but life is not like this. Life is a way to slow down. It is a process and experience of sitting around a table and savoring feelings, life, moving, beauty, romance, warmth, and dreams among home-cooked meals. For thousands of years, regardless of geographical distance, wind, frost, snow and rain, this kind of process and experience is like a sense of life like "what year is this eve" every holiday season. The beauty and innocence are turned into train tickets for returning home across thousands of rivers and mountains. Perhaps, in the eyes of Chinese people, faster is for the sake of family reunion and sweetness.
