light life 林清玄 796Words 2018-03-18
One day, I suddenly had this idea: go to the old residence I used to live in Taipei to see!So I went out in the light rain, and went to Tongshan Street, Roosevelt Road, Anhe Road, and also went to Jingmei's alleys, Muzha's villa, and the bungalow next to the examination institute... Although I looked at it with an ordinary attitude, I couldn't help but fluctuate in my heart, because some houses changed neighbors, some rebuilt buildings, and some were completely razed to the ground. Standing in the rain, I remembered the old house. The voices and laughter in those houses, as real as if they were unreal, are now far away.

I feel that a person living in this time and space only passes by the universe by accident. The brushing between people is an instant, the brushing between people and houses is a blink of an eye, and the brushing between people and the universe is just a snap of the fingers. What about?We live in the universe, thinking it is real, but looking back at dusk, we find that it is just the shadow of some dreams. We are hermit crabs living on the ocean of time, wandering around all day long, constantly looking for a bigger and more suitable shell, until one day, we are unable to go any further and return the shell to the world.There is no shell at the beginning, and it returns to nothing in the end. This is the real scene of life. I and my physical body just pass by lightly.

I really like the couplets that a friend gave me. He wrote: came by chance, Walking is inevitable. Watching the world of mortals every day, thinking of these eight words makes me feel sad!However, some passing moments in the world cannot be ignored. If you are affectionate, righteous and innocent, you will find that there is nothing more beautiful in life than the passing moments. Our accidental rubbing shoulders in life is the greatest miracle in karma.The world is so full of miracles. It is a miracle for a rose to bloom freely in the mountains; it is still a miracle for a rose to be picked by someone in the flower market;

To another person, inserted in front of a bright window, is still a miracle. Therefore, we can say this: for a rose, although life and death are inevitable, there are many beautiful miracles in the process of life and death. The same is true of life, every gaze on the current cause and condition is a miracle. I bought a goose-yellow rose from the flower shop where I used to buy flowers. I walked along Dunhua South Road, smiling at everyone I passed by, as if giving them a rose. It is impossible for me to send roses to everyone, so let me replace my roses with my most sincere heart and greetings with a smile!Every meeting in our lives is also passing by by chance. At the snap of our fingers, I firmly believe that it is the biggest, most beautiful and most precious miracle of life!
