The journey of life has been moving forward, passing through success and failure, shuttling between gain and loss, wandering in joy and sadness. When the heavy pace can no longer support the tired body, people fell on the road in the journey.
Perhaps as Mr. Zhu Ziqing said, “naked” came to this world, and finally “naked” left. Life in the world, everyone can not get nothing, although the wind, but life will not be blank. Until finally even life lost, only to see the original gain and loss between an equal sign.
From the moment of birth, the lost fate can not be avoided. Every time you get something, you are doomed to lose it. But if you think that even the precious, the only life has lost, then why should the rest of the heart. For example, those who fail in love, study and job hunting choose to abandon themselves, and some even choose to commit suicide. But I forget that when I never get all this, I don‘t live the same way? As long as life is still there, everything can be got again.
Du Fu, who lived in an Shi rebellion period, lost his position, money, fame and fortune since the outbreak of the rebellion. Everything was gained by his efforts. Du Fu, who was hit hard, did not give up his life. He has talent, he has sincere friendship. In the end, he got the reputation of “the sage of poetry”, which is precisely because of his extraordinary talent and the tragic life that has been lost, as well as a strong belief that will never be lost.
In fact, in a sense, loss is also the beginning of gain. There is a saying that “the old does not go, the new does not come”, is not this truth? Su Shi was an open-minded man, full of optimism. After being demoted for many times, he was in the mood to visit the mountains and rivers, write poems and paintings in his spare time, and he also created such delicacies as “Dongpo meat” and “Dongpo tofu”, which are still praised by people today. Who can say he didn’t lose a lot? Who can say he didn‘t get a lot? For Su Shi, the most important thing is to have no regrets in this life. It is his optimistic spirit that makes him get more while losing a lot.
Gain and loss are mutually transformed and coexist. Perhaps the difference between them is more reflected in the attitude of treatment. People who are driven by desire often only see their own loss, but they don’t know the precious health they get, but they gradually lose it under the torture of spirit, and ignore that they get a lot more. But in the optimistic people‘s view, despite all kinds of diseases, there are still friendship, family affection, and learning. Just like Zhang Haidi, he can also deduce a wonderful life.
Is loss suffering? No one can draw that conclusion. Sometimes the lost value may be higher than the gain. At least losing is not a failure, but the beginning of success.
