A letter to Xiao Chen: Think more before taking action

Xiao Chen:

It doesn’t matter whether a girl looks good or not, she has a great temperament. It doesn't matter whether it is or not. The key is that as a human being, you need to cherish life, advocate principles, be kind and courteous, and be clear-eyed about world affairs. However, things in the world are often entangled and conflict with each other, making it difficult to be comprehensive. In the name of valuing life, you reported on your father who called on the highway and repeatedly tried to persuade him. Regardless of whether highway-phone-persuasion-reporting was the only reasonable logical chain, at least you showed me a person who was naturally ignorant and deceived by society. A profound formatting process. I don't know whether to congratulate you or feel sad for you.

You need to know that your father is your strongest connection with the world. You are a flower, and your roots have always been involved in his heart. How deep does it go? You can't see. But if the wind blows, even if it is not uprooted, it will affect the whole body. I remember one time, I rebelled against my father. After a long conversation, I watched him take a knife and peel an apple hard. He chopped off large pieces of fruit flesh with a knife and an ax as if he was angry. With a frozen expression, I witnessed his shocking expression of love... As we grew up, the heat of our blood changed from hot to warm. Years from now, we will also become them. I want to say that father and mother are not only the source of blood, but also the place of safety, warmth and trust. The world has changed, it is cold, desolate, and beasts smelling blood are infested. We need to depend on each other and let our hearts rest for a while. People call this general term love. What is the most lasting thing in this world? Only blood ties are lasting. So don't neglect the source of love easily.

Is it possible that your father used to look at you like he was stroking a baby, but after your actions, he will look at you like a little wolf, with isolation and vigilance? Therefore , Xiao Chen, I think you still have a lot of work to do between dissuading and reporting. This both solves the problem and conforms to social norms.

Xiao Chen, you are right to value life, and our social rules also take respecting life as the first priority. Of course, as far as rules are concerned, they are nothing more than the accumulated habits of public will over the years, invented, revised and improved by some unknown people. They die one after another, and you must respect their will to survive. Unless you become an anarchist, you will never be able to subvert the rules. Therefore, when a natural person enters the socialization assembly line, he must be imprinted with rules, he must obey the instructions of the group, and he must also position his small self in the big society. But this necessity must be based on rationality and consciousness, rather than casualness and ignorance. What you need to know more is that among all the rules, reporting is the most social. In addition to its attributes of communication, dissuasion, and regulation, it also has the meaning of accountability, punishment, and warning. It is rational, ruthless and cold, and even more severe. Reporting has its origins in modern Chinese history; especially in contemporary Chinese history, it occurs frequently. I believe that in the panic caused by speed, you have no other choice but to seek external help so that problems that can be solved at the family level can be brought to the social level. This is your abnormality and your shortcoming. I see you are two separate people. You are facing the world's most difficult paradox.

As for this world, it is changing rapidly and development is everywhere. We follow the great wheel of the great era, the wind blows in our ears, and we roar and roll involuntarily. The world wants to get faster, but we have to slow down; the technology and art of this world are changing every day, but we seek permanence amidst the changes; the world is full of "tiny" things, but we work hard to pick up the broken time, Integrate into a new self. However, no matter how technology updates and society develops, human nature will not change. It is being respected and maintained by our increasingly perfect social rules.

Understanding this, you can definitely do better.

You are young and still have time to think and make decisions.

A letter to Lao Chen: Be a role model for children

Dear Lao Chen:

We have never met each other, but after hearing your story, I decided to write you this letter.

Like you, I have mixed feelings about your daughter.

She has already gone to college, but she has not yet learned the principle of "hiding relatives from each other". Instead, she went to expose her father. This is heartbreaking and even more worrying - if this stupid child is still like this after entering the society, she is so sophisticated in the world. How can you stand in this complicated world if you are completely clueless and always criticize this and report that?

I am very sympathetic to your experience. It was just a small incident at first, but it caused an uproar and became known throughout the country. Isn't it just to answer the phone while driving? Who dares to swear that he has never answered or made a phone call while driving? When the phone rings, your boss will ask you, your colleagues will ask you, your friends will ask you. It is not appropriate to answer the phone late! Follow the pedestrians who run the red light. , cars that change lanes savagely, garbage on car windows that are impossible to guard against, and the "Second Ring Thirteenth Lang" drag racing gang that roars in the middle of the night, we are just answering a phone call, and we should be regarded as model law-abiding citizens, okay? Scenes of driving and talking on the phone appear every day in movies and TV dramas, but the screenwriters never immediately send a police officer to stop it.

Old Chen, I know you must have heard a lot of truth recently. Traffic accidents have become one of the major "killers" of mankind today, and the casualty rate is increasing year by year... Who are you trying to scare with those distant numbers? Cancer is the number one killer, so don't we have to listen to probability theory? I believe that there must be someone who follows. You harped on about “rules” awareness. What are rules? In the past, "imperial edict" was the standard that we Chinese people followed. Later, without the emperor, there was a constitution, and statutory "rules" gradually became a system. The country has declared that "rule by man" will become "rule by law." We all understand the truth, but we also all know that the roots of the "hidden rules" have taken root earlier and too deeply in this land. If you just drive and answer a phone call, you will be punished. When will the "privileged car" be allowed on the road according to law? Our children take the college entrance examination in a disciplined manner, while others blatantly find someone to take the exam for their children; our children go through all kinds of hardships to enter college. , others unknowingly transferred their children from a poor school to a prestigious school. The road ahead is long, and there are always some "others" staying by our side. Tell us, which direction should we turn the steering wheel in our hands?

Lao Chen, in any case, I don’t want you to blame too much. daughter. She was just a child. If every member of society respected public order and other individuals like she does, perhaps there would be no such turmoil at all, and the face of the Chinese people presented to the world would not always be the same as "jumping in line." ", "Spitting on the ground", "Global tycoon who buys goods" are connected with the titles "Visit here" engraved on scenic spots and historic sites. I think your daughter’s report to you is a question and challenge from one generation to another - the question is, whose side are the citizens of this country willing to choose today?

Dear Lao Chen, listen My feelings after reading your story are indescribable and I look forward to further communication with you.
