I have been depressed for the past two days, and I am not interested in anything again. The reason is just a few chats with my brother the afternoon before yesterday. I got angry inexplicably. I was disgusted with my brother's lack of understanding of the situation and only sent some useless messages. This roof leak is not a simple matter. I just searched for something on the Internet and sent it. I don't know this. In addition, I feel that my brother’s views on many things are very different from mine. He is becoming more and more like a tacky middle-aged man. He is almost too greasy. Any topic is inseparable from making money, or leads to making money. He is already a person who never slows down and rarely pays attention to himself. Is the pressure in life really so great? There is basically nothing to share with him. Let's live each other's lives well in the future. Why.
I read Yang Jiang's "The Three of Us" today. A great writer must have suffered a lot in life. In fact, writers who can write excellent works are unfortunate. Sure enough, Mr. Yang Jiang has also suffered a lot.
I was very moved after reading this book. Her daughter and her husband Qian Zhongshu left within two years of each other, and the family was separated. In her words, the three of us were separated.
In the end, we will all be separated and enter the unknown afterlife. No matter how we cherish it in this life, it will still be sad.
However, the three of them were lucky. They were very close when they were living together. They understood and cared for each other, and they maintained love for each other throughout their lives. They were considered a very happy family, although they would eventually be separated.
I am especially envious of those families who have close relationships and profound experiences. For example, Wang Anyi and her mother had the experience of traveling to the United States together in the 1980s. The two of them traveled across the United States hand in hand and saw many people and things together. These are precious things.
Those are very serious cultural families who understand life, relationships, and life.
If you compare your own home with these other people's homes, it will appear scattered and incomplete, missing many elements and missing many important links and elements in life.
I went to bed feeling depressed again today. I hope I can have a positive mood when I open my eyes tomorrow and live a fulfilling and meaningful day.
