I am an adult in the wind and rain, but like a child in the sunshine (3)

I have seen this passage: When I was a child, the pillow was full of saliva, and when I grew up, the pillow was full of tears; when I was a child, my smile was a mood, but when I grew up, my smile was an expression; when I was a child, I cried. I just laughed, and when I grew up I laughed and cried.

The seemingly simple outline, whether realistic or freehand, is rich in connotation and thought-provoking, vividly and vividly expressing the difficulty of life and the hardships of the adult world.

However, the simplicity and straightforwardness of her childhood can never be found again when she grows up? Should life be so complicated and miserable when we grow up?

"I am an adult in the wind and rain, and like a child in the sunshine." I like this sentence! Much more positive than the opening paragraph. Mature and calm when encountering difficulties, and as sunny and innocent as a child when things are going smoothly. What a wonderful state of life!

Everyone has experienced carefree childhood and youth, and everyone must grow up. Childlike innocence and maturity are not inherently contradictory or exclusive. It is entirely possible for a person to be mentally and spiritually mature enough to face and endure the sufferings of life, while at the same time his heart remains pure and he has a child-like interest in the world!

Poet Balji Yuanye said that innocence is sometimes poetry, sometimes wisdom, sometimes humor, and sometimes insight.

Childlike innocence is true, it is the innocent heart that remains after crossing the sea and clearing the clouds to see the future, knowing the world without being slick, understanding human feelings without being pretentious.

On the contrary, if a person no longer appreciates nature, frankness and simplicity, but blindly puts on a mask and guards others for practical interests, he may be more sophisticated and diplomatic. , but unknowingly lost a valuable characteristic of his talent. Perhaps, sophistication is a layer of iron armor that can protect us from injury, but it also limits our actions, making us burdened and hobbled.

In real life, there are many adults who always maintain a childlike innocence, but they also do a good job and even have a prosperous career. For example, an old deputy county magistrate in our district was in charge of agricultural and rural work in the county. He achieved remarkable results and had a certain position and reputation in the province and city. In his spare time, he loves photography. He has been tracking and photographing elk for 35 years. He has created more than 500 elk-themed photography works and has won awards or been exhibited in international film festivals in 76 countries and regions. He has let the world see elk. Learn about elk, fall in love with elk. In his seventies, he won the highest honor in the photography industry: the 11th China Photography Awards. He often carries tripods and other equipment on his shoulders, wears waterproof clothing, and stays between the shoals and Yunio Harbor for a day or more. He always keeps his eyes wide open and curious like a child, and uses the most focused eyes to Capture the most dynamic and captivating "decisive moments" in an elk's life.

There is a friend Tan who follows me on the platform. She is born in the 1980s. It can be seen from the article that she lives in Kunming in the south. She loves to appreciate, photograph, and write about flowers, and she also loves to watch, photograph, and write about birds. Her writing is delicate and simple, with a strong sense of imagery and immersion. Both the pictures and text in her works are pure and beautiful, and most of them are full of innocence and childishness. The titles of some articles are interesting, such as "On the first day of the new year, I waited for a bird under the tree", "After catching fish, Xiaocui went to take a bath", "Manjianghong, has the ambition to become popular all over the river", " Prepare to play a piece of woody mandala" and so on. Let’s look at two more passages: “I sat under a tree and looked up at the tree opposite. I would get nervous whenever there was any movement, and I would immediately look to see if there was any movement on the tree. There was indeed movement, but I was still disappointed because there was no movement. The one was the squirrel, which performed a difficult move of hanging one tree trunk on its front feet, another tree trunk on its back feet, and bringing the two trunks closer to eat the fruit. "On this day, people were making noise not far away. It seems that the birds are not in the same world as us, and we are neither in the crowd nor in the bird's world. We sit on the lawn, the sun moves slowly, and the wind blows gently. , the sun is very good, and the birds are fighting for territory, which is also very good.

"In life, she has many friends, especially fellow photographers, who are also characters who often appear in her works.

There is also a literary friend from Guangdong on the same platform, who is a primary school Chinese teacher who has taught for many years. His surname is Wei, a Tujia nationality, and he is also a senior class teacher. It can be seen that Teacher Wei’s teaching is excellent and has been unanimously recognized by teachers and students, especially children. The description of children's heart and innocence, especially the psychological activities of children, is lively and interesting without being artificial, and has a strong appeal. Teacher Wei's comments and comments after the children's daily updates are basically in an equal dialogue. , there is no rigid preaching, and there is no condescending distance from the teacher. Sometimes I will joke and say: "Brother, learn from you!" ”

Marx once quoted Schiller’s motto many times: “What is invisible to the wise cannot be hidden from the innocent mind of a child.” Wordsworth, the "Lakeside Poet" who wrote many children's poems, also said: "Children are the fathers of adults." Innocence is valuable to both children and adults. It is a sign of human purity, such as kindness, Honesty, purity...

Bringing the topic closer, let me talk about a question someone asked me: "You are the author of simple and fresh words, and you are also an administrative official. Which one is better?" Is it the real you? "In fact, this question is not difficult to answer, or it is not a problem in the first place.

Mencius said: "A great man is one who has not lost his innocent heart. "In Mencius' view, a great person will not deviate from his pure and kind heart, and childlike innocence is also the heart of an innocent child. If a person can allow himself to have an innocent heart, do things with an optimistic mood, and treat others with a kind heart, If he is less selfish, less jealous, faces the sunshine, and moves forward bravely, his life will be much happier than others.

Although I am not a great person, I can follow the example of great people and strive to "not lose." His innocent heart".

"Looking at the same situation in different states of mind, the understanding is different. Sometimes, when we are busy, even if we stay for a second, we will find that the beauty in life is not only at the end, but also on the way to chase dreams, and there are also splendid things along the way.

"The Stove", Su Tong's "Bicycle Song" and Wang Anyi's "Amplified Time", etc. Each of the articles is interesting and beautiful, and the writing is very plain and simple. However, these writers are also provincial-level literary and art circles. Or the leaders of writers' associations often need to deal with a lot of work and problems. It can be seen that it does not mean that you have to stay in the study room all day long and seem to be ignorant of the fireworks of the world in order to write beautiful words in a certain position. On the other hand, standing higher and seeing farther will only be more conducive to writing, and I will be able to write good works with the flavor of the times. My articles "New Shoes, Old Shoes", "Wind Blowing Wheat Waves", "Hometown". This Sea", "Red Lanterns Seen All Over the City", etc., can leave a deep impression on some readers and can be published by mainstream media and periodicals such as "Farmers Daily" News Network, "Jiangsu Rural Economy", etc. It has won two awards in essay competitions organized by the Yancheng City Federation of Literary and Art Circles and other units.
