The old man and the child essay review

Any life will come to an end, no matter it is a pine standing proudly on a 10,000-foot wall, or a sea of turbulent currents, or even the sun shining brightly in all directions. However, the pine has never sighed, not the years of autumn cold, but sit without shame. The sea has not been worried, probably all the traces are free, the hundred rivers can also be accommodated. In the middle of the sky standers, the light of ten thousand feet, year after year, such as Chao Chao, dialing the Ming send warmth, do not know the roots of the less. They see the essence of life, that is, the end is another new beginning. Relative to nature's open-mindedness, the spirit of all things human beings?

The old man and the child - the end and the beginning of the conversation.

Flower garden parks, green steps and ancient staircases, often seen together with their companions. The old man's peace and quiet and love and obedience, the child's mischievous and naughty wit and quirkiness, so that these two completely different people found a point of convergence - frankness. Openness enables the two languages, which are very different in level, to be tolerated. The old man gradually feels the end of life, but when he sees a child, he sees the beginning of another life. Therefore, the old man can be more relaxed in old age because death can take away a lot of things from him, but not everything, everything, at least, when he sees the child, he also sees the rotation of life. Life with its rotation is a vast life. Flowers bloom and fall through the seasons. If you see yourself only as a flower, of course, you will have the sadness of the terminator, but if you place yourself on the whole flower, you will have the hope of the rotation.

The old man and the child - looking at endings and beginnings, poetic rhetoric.

Life is the brewing of a feeling, either sour, sweet, bitter, or spicy, not afraid of too much bitterness or spice, but of no flavor. Children are first-timers, holding a fresh feeling for every dish until they have the experience to be selective in their choices. Older people have tasted all the flavors, they do not have the youthful passion and impulse to develop their own territory - they have to do, and can not wait to do is how to wait, wait for their own territory, wait for the flavor. They fear, and this fear seems real as they approach the twilight of their lives, that death will indeed take away the flavor. Those who cannot take away their memories are blank, and subconsciously, death is a page towards the blank. And when the old man stroked the child's hair, he knew that, as it turns out, memories can live on. Leaving is a poetic page, miss, make everything then like everything. In order not to forget the cut memories, leaving is also a poetic continuation.

In fact, I would like to say that the old man and child, is a kind of inheritance, but not only inheritance. Life always tends to be perfect in the change, and perfection is not a unique standard, but always do not deviate from the human nature of "truth, goodness and beauty", perhaps "backward" to the beginning, perhaps, the original is the most unadulterated beauty. Moreover, the end and the beginning is a process that constantly makes people think y. Without the beginning, there will be no end, and without the end, there will be no new beginning, and the end is the most important beginning - the end of the dry, the end of tolerance, the end of the "nothing" will be the beginning of the "new". And the end is the most important beginning - a clean end, a forgiving end, an end of "nothing" in order to have a "new" beginning, a newness of everything. So the old man's peace of mind is unmatched courage.

By the old man and the child, I think of Japan. Yamato is a nation suffering from history. The Japanese people are hovering between memory and forgetfulness, pain. Painful history, who want to forget, only forget, can "wholeheartedly to turn over a new history", but such "wholeheartedly" but in the conscience of the sting is obviously not able to do, self-deceiving self-confidence will often be in the silence of a period of time as the Self-deluding self-confidence tends to erupt like a volcano after a period of silence - this is inevitable. Truly unwanted memories do not need to be deliberately forgotten. And Japan can not decisively choose, can only wander, but not by their own sadness. Japan's large number of people and small land, resource constraints, strong dependence on external development, the island and more earthquakes, the formation of individuality and independence and external tolerance of the conflict, the superiority of the economic favorites and the geo-crisis awareness of the sense of loss, sense of uneasiness of the conflict, a strong national cognitive force and self-knowledge ability to deviate from the great panic. The old man and the child, Japan, neither the old man nor the child, want to use the old man's mind as a "new" child, can only be - self-deception. And people, can not not be smart, can not be too smart, and even more can not be smart. When you look at Japan's "economic giants and political midgets", do you see "gray-haired children"?

All in all, life can not escape the fate of the end, the world has its beginning of the end, against the current even though it is brave style, but sometimes do not think it is a kind of "weak" to escape the reality of the sad? Going against the current, sometimes it is the wise man's calm, elegant, courageous another kind of strong.
