The Most Extreme Male-Female Affection Will Surely Rise to the Level of Parental Love for Children
Are you sure, do you really love him? If you truly love someone, you'll experience joy and sorrow together, feeling everything with your heart.
That day, the nearsighted stone went through the restaurant to the kitchen to fetch food, only to be slammed shut by the glass door. I couldn't help but laugh, uncontrollably, and the more I thought about it, the funnier it became. But when I looked back, I saw the fish's wife, his woman, writhing in pain, her face contorted in a terrifying grimace, unable to speak for half a day. It was as if that heavy glass had struck her head.
I finally stopped laughing, unable to anymore, because the person I loved was my friend, and a friend's man getting hurt, I was still laughing, because I didn't love him. I just liked him, not to the point where I would feel his pain.
Dear, have you ever felt that kind of pain when you love someone? Lu Xun once said, 'There's no true empathy in the world.' Below, a man was dying, the wall separating the two houses played a gramophone, on the other side, a child was being cared for, and above, two people were laughing, along with the sound of cards being played. A woman was crying on a boat for her deceased mother. And Mr. Lu Xun, only felt their noisy commotion.
Yes, with just a few strokes, the indifference and ruthlessness of human nature were vividly portrayed. Therefore, Shen Congwen, at ninety years old, after experiencing the pain of the Cultural Revolution, was interviewed by a journalist. She patted his shoulder and said, 'Old Shen, you've suffered!' Just for that one sentence, he wept like a child!
Everyone should be loved, this lifetime of solitary cultivation must have the warmth of traveling with others, otherwise we would be content. However, love and hate are fleeting, and being unable to have someone is the norm. A truly enduring emotion must be willingly given and accepted, accepting the other person's whims. All emotions, if there is conflict and arguing, if there is comparison and demanding, if there is obsession and claiming, that's because the love isn't deep enough. In the best of times, loving someone at their prime is Shen Congwen's confession to San San.
But San San never understood this deep affection, Shen Congwen chose silence and cowardice, bowing down to San San's fickle nature. This is like a parent's deep affection for a child, you let me down, I am sad, but I won't accuse or demand, I will wither alone.
