Chapter 68 The word "temporary" has a strong sense of Zen

"Temporarily leading", "Temporarily at the top of the list", "Temporarily no change", "Temporarily lagging behind"... Watching the Olympic Games these days, I often hear the commentary with the word "temporary" in my ears, and often inhale the word "temporary" in my eyes The subtitles of the words, the competition is tense and ever-changing. Those who are "temporarily leading" or even "leading the way" will lose their names to Sun Shan when the final frame is fixed. in hand.Exactly: the moon has its ups and downs, people have their joys and sorrows, and the moon bends to illuminate Kyushu. Some families are happy and some are sad.

Thinking about the word "temporary" carefully, one can feel awe, and finally the person who is all over the body is the real fighter and the strong.The universe is constantly moving and changing, the stars are changing, the flowers are fading and the flowers are blooming, the east and the west, the vicissitudes of life, this is the right way in the world.The champions who have won many times will finally be replaced by new heroes; the records that have been maintained for many years will eventually be broken by new attackers.And today's failure may be the starting point for winning the championship tomorrow. Winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs, and the "ever victorious general" is just that he has won more battles than other generals.

In the process of struggling, one should grasp every "temporary", but must not stick to a certain "temporary".For those who have passed through every "temporary" and finally won the championship, the temporary ecstasy, temporary ecstasy, and even the temporary display of the domineering arrogance of the king and the arrogance of the winner, as long as it is only "temporary" after all, it is not a big problem, but we can see it from the screen. It can be seen from the Internet that individual gold pickers have lost their shape and lost their composure for too long, and as a result, they perfunctorily or simply forgot to perform the important etiquette that is customary in the Olympic movement: shaking hands with the referee to express gratitude, expressing gratitude to the podium of the same station The runner-up and third runner-up expressed their mutual joy and mutual congratulations with facial expressions and body language, and waved and even bowed to the audience, including those foreign audiences who only cheered and applauded their opponents.Medals are indeed a kind of honor, but they should not only symbolize honor. After all, honor is a "temporary" thing. Except for experts, data writers and sports fans, who can always remember the gold medal winners of each event in the previous Olympic Games?The more important symbolic meaning of the medal is to remind us: remember the path leading to Great Harmony - the peaceful competition of human beings, and all ethnic groups are like brothers.

The Olympic Games in Athens are not halfway through, and when I write this article, our athletes are temporarily ahead in the number of gold medals, and I am delighted.But I am also soberly aware that once various track and field events are launched, we are likely to be overtaken by the United States and Russia.In the end, the sports level of a country or a nation should mainly reflect the popularity of sports among the people and the average health status of the people. Don't be fooled by the temporary "golden light".The Olympic Games are like this, in fact, our gains and losses in the trek of life are all like this. Our life and career are developing in a chain of "temporaries" one after another. We should grasp each "temporary" well, Don't get carried away by the "temporary" success and honor to stop the slide, don't be depressed and passive because of the "temporary" setbacks and failures, and always surpass every "temporary" and strive towards a life that fully expresses oneself and benefits others and the world The end, into eternity.At this point, I temporarily stop writing, and in silence, I can deeply appreciate the strong Zen meaning of the word "temporary".
