6: Autumn Silent Words (21-24)
21
Early in the morning, walking in the foggy community, the fragrance of osmanthus in the community came from time to time, refreshing. It is obvious that the most intense fragrance of osmanthus has passed, and the fragrance of osmanthus smelled in the early morning has become much lighter than in the previous few days.
When I passed by the lake in the community, I saw another hazy scenery that I had not seen for a long time. The small lake is covered with thick fog, and the fifth phase building behind the small lake, looking from a distance, seems to be a house built on a certain line diameter. Especially when you vaguely see the upper floors in the fog, you feel like you have the illusion of a building in the sky.
Along the way, I looked at the buildings on both sides of the avenue in the car and realized that it seemed that all houses were like this today. Not only houses, but even the Golden River that you pass by on weekdays is covered in a hazy mist. The woods and plants on the Golden River pond also became dreamy in the morning fog.

When I came to the company, I passed by the office building and looked at the property opposite the company, and was also soaked in a fog. The mystery brought by the fog buildings I saw at this moment was even stronger than the introductory feeling that I saw when I first went out of the community.
After having breakfast, I sat in the office, and there was no one. Since it was Saturday, most of the others in the office were busy with their own affairs. Sitting alone in the office, I felt bored, remembering the misty fog I saw in the early morning, and suddenly I was thinking about going to the Golden River near the company to take a look. It has been a few months since I went there to see it.
After more than ten minutes, you come to the golden edge again. At this time, the sun had already dissipated the fog, and in the early morning I saw the hazy fog on the Golden River had already dissipated. The forests and flowers and plants on the pond by the Golden River are already clearly visible. The lush forests, green grasslands, and the still green vegetables planted by farmers, all of which are in their eyes.
You go down a yellow mud staircase on the shore and come to a sightseeing corridor built in the middle of the shore.
When I came here again, a familiar feeling came quietly. That was the feeling that I seemed to have forgotten for a long time and was immersed in nature. Look, a few little birds jumped around on a tree with slightly sluggish leaves. If you look far away, there are also a few birds flying around the woods and grass by the river. Continue walking along the sightseeing corridor and you see butterflies flying around the grass beside you. There are all kinds of butterflies, one or two larger black butterflies flying on the grass a little farther away, and a few smaller butterflies flying in the grass on the slope beside them. They have more colorful colors. After careful viewing, they can see yellow, gray, and the most charming purple. Butterflies are always a group of silent dancers. Their beauty and freedom are always conveyed to people's eyes through silent flying and bright colors. Perhaps, they are noble spirits of nature and do not want to communicate with this world!

You found another intersection by the tourist corridor and went down because you wanted to go to the river to take a look.
After going down from the sightseeing corridor, I really came to the pond by the Golden River. The rivers interspersed in the pond, the grass is high and low, and when you pass through the weed paths over there, you are more like you are interspersed in the grass. The huge silk thatch that is higher than you will "stroke" your face from time to time, your hands and the dew from last night on the grass leaves. This "stroke" makes you feel itchy and slight pain.
You have come to the Golden River again and are truly close to the Golden River. Walking along the path to the river, the first thing that catches your eyes is the short dam. In fact, the sound of the water flowing on the embankment has already reached your ears when it is already on the small road. When you look at the small embankment, the noisy water sound is even more clearly in your ears.The water flowed down from the dam quickly. The yellow water in the upper reaches became clearer when it passed through the dam. The water flowed through the dam, creating white splashes, rushing into the river downstream, and stirring up countless bubbles. The bubbles floated along the river for a while and then disappeared. The bubbles never walked far. There is a white bird in the corner of the river beside the waters in the distance. It is probably looking for food in the water! Looking downstream, there were two wild ducks swimming in the water and playing in the lower reaches of the flow level.
Looking at these scenes in front of you, you feel a natural balance. You remembered another question that you often think about. In terms of life, is it that people as busy as us are happy, or are these living conditions that live naturally in nature and integrate with nature happier?
The answer is unknown, and it always has its own theory. However, for you, you are more inclined to the latter, because in nature, you can always find the feeling that makes me intoxicated. It can always make you forget the worries of life and death, and it can also make you feel the feeling of passing through everything in accordance with the laws of heaven!

When I returned to the sightseeing corridor, the sun was already rising very high. The sun at this time can make people feel warm, and the strong winds and rainy weather have also dissipated for many days. At this moment, I enjoyed facing the sun. I sat down on the stone steps beside the sightseeing corridor, facing the sun, and then closed my eyes. At this moment, although there is darkness in front of you, you can still feel a dark redness. You know, this is the sun's heat. Perhaps, you can call it the blazing heat in the dark, or the red in the dark.
You just sit like this, facing the sun, feeling the redness and heat on your eyelids, and everything in the surrounding nature is right beside you. You hear the joyful cry of birds, you hear the chirping of insects, you hear the wind in nature, and you also hear the sound of water flowing in the Golden River not far away. When you gradually enter the state and blend in with nature, you will hear the carefree happiness of fish in the water, you will hear the freedom of butterflies dancing, you will hear the freedom of clouds floating in the blue sky, you will also hear the happiness of trees and flowers in nature facing the breeze and morning rain, and then, you will hear the growth of everything in nature...
When you open your eyes and return to reality from meditation, you hear the bustling sounds created by people, and you pick up your phone and look at the time. It was almost ten o'clock, and you think you have to go back. You have to go back to the world where you need to take responsibility, and there is a fast-paced busy world.
When you climb the shore, you suddenly realize that this feeling of meditating in nature seems to have been away from you for a long time, and I have not visited this golden river for a long time.
But you also understand that as you grow older, perhaps your inner heart is about immersed in nature and blending into reality, just like the changes in summer and autumn some time ago. After a few rounds of alternating heat and cold, you will eventually tend toward the latter with the changes in the seasons in the annual rings!

When you return to the shore from the pond of the Golden River, you see another realistic scene. When a young man saw a blue Buick car parked on the shore, he hurriedly ran over and knocked on the window of the blue Buick. Although it was a few meters away, you still heard the voice of the young man: "Boss, do you want to go to the state capital (a property by the Golden River) to see it!" The two middle-aged men sitting inside looked indifferent. They put down the car window slightly and shook it again, and the originally opened car door was closed again. Obviously, the middle-aged man was preparing to get off the car at first, but later he saw the salesman coming over for some reason and closed the door again and rolled the window. Then the blue Buick left, leaving behind a slightly disappointed and lonely young man.You accidentally saw the whole process, and during the whole process, the two middle-aged people in the car didn't even glance at the young man.
But fortunately, the young man stood there and was stunned for a moment and quickly crossed the highway and returned to the opposite property. He stood at the entrance and exit of the community, staring at the river road in front of him at all times, looking at every car that might stop, and every customer who might be his "God". It can be felt that although the young man was young, he was already a sales veteran, and he became accustomed to being ignored.
Looking at the young man, you thought of the two free and easy wild ducks just now in the Golden River. You don’t know, in terms of the essence of life, is it his life happier or the two ducks in the river. And when you return from the Golden River to the bank and from being immersed in nature to returning to the state of thought that becomes rational thinking, it seems like the Golden River and the real estate projects by the river, their transformation is only separated by a river bank.
This reminds me of a book again, and its name is "Genius on the left, Madman on the right". In fact, the spiritual world in your heart and the real world are just a piece of thin paper!
