What did ancient poetry bring to people?

Ancient poetry is a treasure of China traditional culture, which has been passed down for thousands of years and still shines in the contemporary era.

Ancient poetry taught us to be as free and easy as Li Bai in life, laugh at the sky and go out. Are we Artemisia people? When his official career was not smooth and he was hunted down, Li Bai still drank and recited poems, and lived up to his youth. In life, we may encounter many hardships and fail to reach the peak of our ideals and ambitions, but don't be discouraged and face it calmly. The bitterness of life is nothing but the coolness and sobriety brought by the gentle breeze of free and easy chivalrous people. Li Bai still drank and wrote poems when his official career was not smooth, and he was the most free and easy person in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Today, we should have the spirit of poetry and immortals in suffering.

Ancient poetry taught us to be as compassionate as Du Fu, to have a humanitarian mind, to be safe and sound in the endless buildings, and to make all the poor people in the world happy and calm in the rain. Du Fu was down and out all his life, caring for the people and scholars all his life, but he failed to realize his ideal ambition of serving the country and the people. However, in such a difficult life, his poems are all about people's sufferings, unsuccessful scholars and corruption in the court. He used his own poems to express sympathy for the people, compassion for people with lofty ideals, and cherish the humanitarian spirit and great love. In today's era, we need too many people who plead for the people, make decisions for the people and do things for the people, and too many people who are as compassionate and dedicated to the people as poets.

Ancient poetry has taught us a kind of attitude towards life, just like Tao Yuanming's leisurely seeing the contentment of Nanshan under the hedge of picking chrysanthemums, and retiring to the countryside to follow his own wishes in a paradise, which is a comfortable way of life for people in the Peach Blossom Garden. There are many choices in life, and the one that suits you is the best. Tao Yuanming's pastoral seclusion, returning to his original heart and being in harmony with nature may not be a good way of life. In today's society, lifestyle choices are more diversified, as long as you can feel fun in your life, that's enough.

We grew up reciting ancient poems, but it takes us a lifetime to understand these words left by the ancients.
