Go slowly and enjoy!
The value of an artist is determined solely by whether it can be incorporated into a harmonious whole, which is often unexpected. He is capable of valuing what the average person values and undervaluing what the average person values. When valuing a thing, he knows persistence; When he downplays a thing, he knows how to get rid of it. Artistic ability is found not only in what is known, but especially in what is known. Su Dongpo's thesis, that is, like water in the valley, in what it has...

When winter comes
When winter comes, can spring be far behind? But how many times do you see spring coming after winter? Diogenes, the Greek philosopher, used to sleep in a earthen jar. One day the Emperor Alexander came to see him and asked him, in the emperor's usual voice, "Have you any request of me?" The cynical philosopher rolled his eyes and replied, "I beg you to go away a little and not blot out my sunshine." I'm afraid there are different opinions on the meaning of this well-known story. We...

activating the spiritual part of our mind
Reading humanistic books means activating the spiritual part of our mind. The highest part of our soul is the spirit. If you're a humanist and you go into history, you're not just reading facts.

the mountain
Let oneself in a daze before the mountain Hongyan, let oneself word poor, let oneself draw a stroke. One autumn in Qixia, a friend who lives in a northern city couldn't wait to tell me how the leaves of a mountain forest turned red.

Frustrated and angry, he sent a message saying, "Come and see for yoursel...
