Open business day-to-day

Chapter 70 Reading
Lin Rui drove home, and there were a few vases at home. He took them out and wiped them clean, put the flowers in, and looked at them carefully. They were not bad, and smelling the fragrance of flowers, the whole house seemed to have a natural atmosphere.

It's just that he has never learned flower arrangement, and the placement and matching are not natural and harmonious. He found some flower arrangement techniques on the Internet, adjusted it a little, and looked at it again, it was much better.

Since ancient times, Chinese people have pursued the elegance and refinement of their living environment, spiritual freedom and spirituality, so they highly admire a leisurely life.

When you are free, you can read books, visit famous mountains, make friends, drink alcohol, and write books. There is no greater joy in the world than this.

This is the ancient people's emphasis on the quality of life and the taste of life, a kind of spiritual sustenance.

The four elegant things of ancient literati, poets, and talented women, such as burning incense, ordering tea, hanging pictures, and arranging flowers, may be like this.

There are flowers in the house, and the house seems to be alive, with a bit of natural wildness in the warmth and comfort.

Lin Rui made himself a pot of tea, went to the balcony, and took out an introduction to communication psychology.

It's a pity that there is a cup of clear tea on the table, but there is no volume of ancient books at hand, which destroys the classical elegance in my heart.

Lin Rui felt a little regretful in his heart, but he put it away in an instant. When he wears a Hanfu, holds a folding fan, brews a pot of tea, dyes it with incense, and holds an ancient book in his hand, it will be truly antique and full of charm.

The bright moon is at the window, the breeze is in the arms, burning incense, ordering tea, hanging paintings, arranging flowers, detached from things, and wandering with things, this kind of life is so elegant and quiet to the extreme.

Lin Rui thought about this scene for a while, and yearned for it. This is probably the life that ancient literati pursued all their lives.

Such a textured and compelling scene, how can you miss it, you can try it when you have the conditions in the future.

If you learn from the ancient literati, you may be able to get a little bit of elegance.

……

I kept typing until after eight o'clock in the evening, and today I have written [-] characters, so I started to stop.

I got up and stretched my waist, stretched my legs and feet, followed by more than half an hour of boxing exercises.Punching and kicking, stepping and twisting the waist, after a pass of exercise, a thin layer of sweat broke out on the body, but the whole body was comfortable.

I came to the bedroom and lay down on the bed to rest for a while, feeling my body regained energy.

Go to the study, take out a book and go back to the bedroom.I rearranged the bed so that I could have a comfortable half-lying position, opened the book and began to read.

The book they are reading now can be regarded as a philosophical enlightenment book, "Sophie's World", which is not only a philosophical enlightenment book, but also a brief history of Western philosophy, but it is different from the dullness of other philosophical introductory books. , the language is very lively and interesting.

A few days ago, Lin Rui was in a philosophy class. He saw that the teacher spoke interestingly and listed many in-depth philosophical issues. He suddenly became interested in philosophy, so he asked the teacher where he should start if he wanted to learn some philosophical knowledge simply.

The teacher recommended this book "Sophie's World" and said that if he recommends other books, he might fall asleep and be unable to persist. This book is relatively better. It writes boring philosophical knowledge into a story, which should make people more excited. Hold on for a while.

After the professor recommended the book to Lin Rui, he encouraged interested students to follow along.

After recommending the book, the professor sighed with emotion at that time, and began to lament the era of entertainment to death.

With the help of the Internet and new media, people pay close attention to the life trivia and latest trends of entertainment stars, focusing on these things that can bring them temporary satisfaction.

Fragmentation of information and diversification of entertainment make people more and more impetuous, restless, and easily manipulated.

For this world, people should have deeper thinking and views.

But for most people, some of the simplest questions may not be clear until death: What is the purpose of life?Where is the meaning of being human?
Philosophy is a door opened for us to find these questions and guide us in the direction.

But the threshold for studying philosophy is indeed a bit high. It is the crystallization of the wisdom of countless people in the thousands of years of human history, accumulated from generation to generation.

Some people have read a lot of introductory books on philosophy, and they speak clearly and logically, but their hearts are still vague and vague.There are also some people who didn't even touch the door, so they had no choice but to give up.

After class, Lin Rui went to the bookstore and bought this book to read. He didn't need to be proficient, as long as he could expand his knowledge.

To put it simply, this book tells a story with a lot of brain holes.One day, 14-year-old girl Sophie came home from school and received a mysterious letter—the letter asked: Who are you?Where did the world come from?There was also a postcard addressed to "Please Sophie to Sid," postmarked from Lebanon.

From this day on, Sophie kept receiving strange letters like this.She doesn't know who Sid is, who sent the letter, and the story begins here.

The content of the letter is very long, from "Who am I? Where did I come from?" to Socrates, Plato, and then to Freud and Comrade Lao Ma, the spiritual leader of the proletariat, gradually triggered many interesting stories and thoughts !
In spare time, read such a profound leisure book, pass the time, think about life, as a way of entertainment, it is also very good.

An unpretentious day just passed by.
