Although our days are getting better and better, everyone is getting busier and busier.
Changsha is a leisure city, because the foot bath shops all over the street are called "foot capital". Even in such a casual place, even after 3 am at night, there is still a lot of traffic. As soon as the sun rises, some areas start to be congested, and it is a busy scene.
I have nothing to do at the reading club, and I often ask my friends what they are busy with recently. No matter how many kinds of answers, it seems that they all come down to making money in the end.
A clever friend asked back, what else can you do if you are busy without making money?
Everyone was stunned.
We are all. But when I was busy, I felt more and more tasteless, eating big fish and meat was tasteless, fruit and vegetables tasted tasteless, I always remembered that when I was a child, when supplies were scarce, I had no money to buy candy, and I dried my old mother before frying it. The sweet potato fries are used as snacks, and the sesame fragrance in them can still be remembered to this day. And the glutinous rice cake cooked with cabbage, or the glutinous rice cake cooked in front of the fire, with fermented bean curd inside, it is really delicious in the world.
Every time I go back to my hometown and eat a few simple hometown dishes, I can eat a few more bowls of rice.

In the book club last week, there was a friend named Wei. He experienced some unpleasant things recently. He said that life was too hard. (This is a little different from Fan Zhongyan's far-reaching and open-minded approach.) After he talked about it, I realized that his hope was not to be bothered by things other than himself.
In short, I hope that you are indifferent to the emotions of the outside world, or preferably indifferent.
I have a slight feeling that the busy people and Wei's pursuit are all pointing to the cursed pirates aboard the Black Pearl. They have endless gold coins to spend, endless food to eat, and they kill people if they want to.
The most enviable thing is that they can kill others, others can't kill them, they are immortal, and they can't kill them.
It's an enviable life.
For us ordinary people today, financial freedom is a lifelong desire. If we can still live forever, what more would we want? What you want can be achieved immediately, without hard work, just like the paradise depicted in "The Ferryman", everything is provided according to your desires, so that you have nothing missing.

But there is nothing missing, what will it be like?
We bought a luxury car for less than a week and no longer felt it, we bought a cell phone for a year and we started thinking about getting a new one, we found a beautiful partner, and it didn't take long to be like a cursed pirate Likewise, the left hand touches the right hand.
Could this be a dilemma that we cannot resolve?
When you don't have it, you want it. Handy, but indifferent.
For pirates, fine wine cannot satisfy their needs, food turns to dust in their throats, and the once indulgent life of lavish wine cannot satisfy their desires. At this time, they only have one wish, which is to grab the last gold coin, get back the feeling, and be a human being.
Remember what Captain Barbossa said when he was killed: I feel. (I finally have a feeling)

Young people, tired of life, hope that they will not be happy with things and not be sad about themselves.
Maybe at a time, when we are numb to feelings and things, watching young partners on campus fall in love and hug each other tightly in the cold wind, my Burmese Tianlun brother, who has passed his destiny, will not be able to help it. He took out his phone and took a picture of this touching scene.
I also often mention to my friends that old man from Wulingyuan, who is over sixty years old, and he is ecstatic because he likes someone, he is reluctant to sleep, and he has to make phone calls with his confidant for several hours every day. This kind of innocence made me and the younger generation feel inferior. I also envied a retired surgeon. Although I was used to watching life and death in the hospital bed all my life, when I mentioned a certain patient, I would burst into tears.
Feeling, will not be the best thing for us human beings.
Otherwise, why did the goddess go down to earth, and why did the pirates lift the curse?
