"Elderly and Sea": Everything is contrary to your wish, in fact, there are other arrangements

Author:Insight Time:2022.07.02

An elderly man, a fluttering boat, a large fish of eighteen feet, and an endless sea.

70 years ago, Hemingway wrote a shocking work- "Old Man and Sea" with four simple elements.

This book tells the story of the elderly San Diego's experience of three days and three nights, fishing a big fish, but in the confrontation with the shark group, but eventually found nothing.

Life is alive, who is not floating in the sea.

The more you go through, the more you understand, the more San Diego, which is not a matter of doing nothing, is actually a microcosm of you and me in the red dust.

In this world, there is no perfect life, everything is contrary to his wishes, and there are other arrangements behind it.

1

Increased, it is the normal state of life

Old man San Diego is an elderly fisherman in the Gulf of Mexico.

He lives alone in a narrow and dilapidated small shed. All the property is just a boat, a set of fishing gear, a table and a chair.

The fishermen on the island called him out of bad eggs because he had not caught a fish for 84 consecutive days.

But San Diego didn't care about it. He believed that as long as he insisted on going to sea, he would always return one day.

So, on the 85th day, when the sun rose, he sailed again with all his equipment.

This time, the god of luck finally cared for him.

A Malaysian forest fish bit his bait and pulled his green fishing rod to the water.

He was happy in his heart, holding the fishing rod hard.

But after the big fish hooked, he did not immediately capture his hand, but dragged the boat hard and swimmed into the depths of the sea.

The power of the fish is too great, and the boat is too light. San Diego has to bow to his body and pull the fishing rope to resist the tension of the rope forward.

After several hours of confrontation, San Diego found that the strength of the big fish was gradually exhausted, and the speed of moving a lot was a lot.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he struggled to pierce the fish fork into the fish body, and the big fish was killed.

He tied the fish to the side of the ship with satisfaction, then raised the mast, ready to go home.

At this moment, the accident suddenly came.

The wound of the big fish released a strong bloody smell, which soon attracted the siege of the shark group.

Although San Diego was exhausted at this time, he still played twelve points to deal with sharks' provocation.

He struggled to insert the blade into the middle of the shark's spine and head, one, two, three ...

After three days and three nights of battles, the sharks or died or fled, and San Diego won the final victory in exhaustion.

However, his only loot, the big fish, was bitten by the shark group.

All efforts have become phantoms.

The experience of San Diego's fishing failure is like we struggling in the hardship of life.

It may be for the opportunity to promote a thousand years, it may be for an extremely important test, or it may be for the long -awaited human confession ...

We made all the preparations in advance, but our fate was unwilling, and gave us a bamboo basket to make a water ending;

We tried their best to get what we wanted, but God quickly deprived of this hopes, and it began to slap us by the way.

We often look forward to a lot of cultivation and can gain a point.

But life is so cruel, it makes you understand in the loss of time again and again:

There has never been a life -like life, regret and pain are inevitable.

Learning to accept the imperfections of life is the only way to mature.

All the loss will return in another way

In the past, San Diego would bring a little boy Manolin.

Mano Lin was a child of his neighbor's house. When he was 5 years old, he followed San Diego to fish.

San Diego taught him to use fishing tools and related techniques, and Manarin helped to make bait like a little adult.

On the sea, they occasionally chatted, and occasionally enjoyed silence, and said nothing.

Back to the island, Manolin often enthusiastically solves the problem of food and clothing for San Diego.

When he sleeps in San Diego, he covers a warm blanket for him;

In the days when San Diego, he will provide him with black bean rice, fried bananas and stew.

When all the fishermen laughed at San Diego a bad egg, only Manolin firmly believed that he was an unusual fisherman.

He often said to San Diego: "There are a lot of fishermen, and some are very amazing, but only you are at the top of the top."

But this time, Manarin's parents left him with him, and San Diego could only be alone.

In the darkness, when he was facing a strong opponent and was taken for his rapid rolling by the Malaysian Malaysia, he began to miss Manolin.

When his left hand was cramped because of his tight fishing cable, he thought that Manolin always helped him massage and knead at this time, so he couldn't bear it.

Three days and three nights wandering on the vast sea, San Diego said the most: "If the child is here."

When every injury, starving, no one speak, and silent, he was repeating this sentence.

Although, under the attack of the shark group, there was only one skeleton left, and San Diego had never been dead.

On the contrary, a large stone in his heart seemed to fall quietly because he just wanted to return to Mannolin quickly.

The existence of Mannolin made him understand that the significance of going to sea was because someone understood him. Some people, some things, and some feelings in their lives are far more precious than a big fish.

No matter how difficult fate is, as long as someone is accompanied, there is hope that it is hopeful; if someone is guarded, it can be seen by the difficulty.

In this life, it is a process of constant loss of and constantly obtaining.

In some cases, we will also feel desperate because of our dreams.

But when you look back, you will find that the people you meet have its own meaning.

The rich and abundant of the material is lost, but it has gained the happiness of feelings.

Discarding the current fruitfulness, but getting the flowers of tomorrow.

Life always makes us bruises all over, but later, those who have suffered will definitely become a reward.

All the loss in life is just a prelude to this world gently compensation.

All regrets will also be another kind of good success.

There is no need to complain to live, everything is the best arrangement

When San Diego's boat entered the small port, the lights of the terrace hotel all extinguished.

On the dark night, all residents fell asleep in peace.

Only San Diego, in front of a small pebble beach alone, spent his efforts to drag his boat to the beach.

He raised his heavy mast, carried it on his shoulders, and walked along the road.

Three days of hard work made him difficult.

Along the way, he stopped and stopped, resting five times, and barely walked to his shed.

This time, he originally thought that he could catch a big fish and prove his ability to the people around him.

But I do n’t want to, to make people, all their efforts are paid to the east with the arrival of the shark group.

Nevertheless, he did not complain.

He looked at his small boat and thought: "At least, the boat is still good. It is perfect, not a little damage, except the rudder. However, it is easy to replace."

So he walked into the shed, lay on the bed, and fell asleep deeply.

As soon as he woke up, his energy recovered a lot. He saw Maninolin sitting next to his side with coffee, and immediately enthusiastically discussed the next sailing with the other party:

We have to make a good spear that can kill the fish and often put it on the boat. Let me go to put the knife and grind the steel plate. How many days do you have to scrape this strong wind?

After the losing Malaysian forest, the pain and torture that he suffered in three days also forgot to remember it.

What he thought of thinking is what he should gain in the next sailing.

Although he lost a fish, in fact, he also gained rare experience and the courage to set off again.

Feng Zikai once said: "As long as the life is immortal, even if it is seriously affected by natural disasters and people, it is temporarily suppressed, and there will be a day of looking up."

Life is like the sea area where the elderly is located, and the tide rises and falls, and the tide falls.

Along the way, although there is no shortage of pain and loss, as long as you have hope, you will definitely wait for a new turn.

Don't complain, don't blame, face life with a smile, everything will be the best arrangement.

Some people say that people have to read "Old Man and the Sea" three times in their lives.

The first time was the first time when I was young, when I was heartbroken, my heart was heartbroken, and the pain was unbearable;

The second time is to be middle -aged, and to do his best for your career, but he has been repeatedly setbacks;

The third time was the old age, and after going through the ups and downs, it was found that life and expectations were completely different.

In these three stages, when you read the story of San Diego, you will find:

All love is unable to do, all the hard work, and all the dissatisfaction is actually the norm in life.

Those who live transparently are not able to have a smooth life, but when things and wishes violate, they can face it calmly.

Believe that there is always a long way to go;

All the pain and loss are for the happiness of the day to get the position of the day.

As long as you have hope, you will be able to pay as expected in the next voyage.

Like a praise and encourage friends.
