[Reading Comprehension] Travel with your soul.

I recently watched Bi Shumin's Journey with a Soul. The first time I read her article was in junior high school. A textbook called "Remind Happiness" was only a teenager. I don't have such a deep concept of happiness, but I think the words are really beautiful. An argumentative essay can make people feel happy, like a kind elder, and it makes people feel like spring breeze.

Her words always bear the temperature of life, and a seemingly unnecessary thing is a different kind of scenery in her eyes. And I was shocked by her words again. She is really a person who lives with her soul. Everyone she meets in life can be cherished and treated well, so as to dig out the meaning in ordinary life. Even a cloud, a tree, a gust of wind, a mountain, everything in nature, in her heart, is a spiritual and ordinary life. In her pen, it has become interesting, and I seem to have followed her on a meaningful journey.

I especially remember a passage in the book: in ancient Egypt, there was a legend that every life did not open immediately after birth and needed the key of life. Only by opening life with the key of life will it be more meaningful and happier. I think she must have the key to life, so she can always find the meaning of life with her soul to see happiness.

? In Chicago, USA, she went to a residential center for the elderly in a small town in Illinois and stayed at the home of Yonala, an old man who received foreigners. She is not used to everything from diet to life, but her white lies to the elderly and her understanding and gratitude are touching.

?

? She went to a nursing home in America. She saw a group of lonely old people who could only remember and miss their loved ones through photos. What a cruel thing it is to experience your own aging and disability alone in the shock of loneliness. Let me be glad that I live in China and enjoy the warmth brought by a big family. Four generations live under one roof or five generations live under one roof. Although there will be a burden, because the child grows up day by day and can see hope, while the old man is aging day by day, you should support yourself and give him support. But nothing can replace the kind of affection between relatives.

? She went to the hospice care center in San Francisco, where she helped people practice how to face death. All those who face death alone will never tell you what death is like. One day, you will know, because all of us will face that day. I have also seen my grandmother lie in bed for a month before she died, eating only liquid food. In the end, she didn't even have the strength to speak, so she could only look at us with those helpless eyes.

I was thinking at that time, one day I will face that moment, what kind of mood will I use to face it? Now I think, when I am alive, I should cherish time. When I get old, it will really be a journey alone. At that time, I will say goodbye to this world calmly and tell myself that I have been to this world. ...

? She went to the crisis center in Santa Fe, where "crisis" is an open understanding. It's the first time I've seen an institution that can accept a "crisis" in this way. They say that everyone feels differently about the crisis. An old man, a child or an adult, as well as men and women, have different judgments and tolerances on the crisis, and there is no unified standard. The lovelorn and bankruptcy of adults may constitute a crisis, but children are reprimanded by their parents, and the death of a kitten and puppy may also constitute a crisis. We don't want anyone to call our answering phone and think: Is my situation a crisis? We hope you can call us when you need help. As long as you know that there is a door here and you have knocked on it, that is enough. You are free to tell the truth in your life, from your toes to your brain.

When I read this passage, I was moved to tears. It is not only when my life is in danger that the real crisis is, but also those in my heart! I think, when will China have its own crisis response center?

? She visited the "International Surgery Museum", saw the early surgical instruments, and felt the painful price and long time paid by surgeons for medical exploration in the past 100 years. It was half fear, half hope and more unknowable sadness. This gave birth to my reverence for the profession of doctor, my persistence in medicine and my cherish of human life, which gave me a new understanding of life.

? In Philadelphia, she met Rena, head of the Hershey Foundation, which advises women who may have their uterus and ovaries removed. After Genoa removed the uterus and ovaries, a series of physiological changes took place, and finally she was paralyzed in bed for nine years, and her life was once in crisis. And she told the world about her personal experience, so that more women can really understand themselves. It was not until I read this article that I deeply realized the importance of uterus and ovaries to women's bodies. When she talked about some patients, I was surprised, because they were friends, mother and daughter. In the face of surgery, they even hid the real postoperative situation from each other. It makes people feel horrible. The darkness of human nature is fully exposed here, and human nature is deeply perceived. Gene is doing a very great thing. ?

? In the pet treatment center, I saw Shanni Corps, a kind of dog therapy, which specializes in treating hemiplegia and senile diseases, thus helping the recovery of nerves. They will also go to prison to treat prisoners, restore trust in people and awaken their deep conscience.

The motivation given by trust is enormous. These dogs can't talk, but they are pure and kind, persistent and lovely. This is a difficult task for human beings. Reminds me of my dog, which has grown up for seven or eight years. Then I walked for three years, and when I came back, it recognized me, which made me feel incredible. Dogs are more loyal to humans than you can imagine.

? In new york, she went to the public women in Harlem, a poverty-stricken area dominated by blacks. A girl in China is proud to be a tiger, which makes people deeply aware of the power of culture. A Chinese-American girl was happy to learn Chinese when she was studying in an aristocratic private girls' school.

I went to a new immigrant children's school in San Francisco and saw a group of friendly people, no smiles, no eye contact and no tacit understanding. Only indifference and avoidance, as if a group of dolls made of wax. They feel inferior and miserable, and even don't want to admit that they are from China. They are seedlings pulled up from the motherland and floating on new land.

The pain without a sense of belonging is the shock of culture and the desolation of stripping. In the face of these children walking on the difficult road, she can only tell them that persistence is victory, because it is unrealistic to go back. Maybe when they accumulate enough wealth and think more about life, they will stand on a higher scale, look at the culture of the motherland and be proud of being Chinese descendants.

This reminds me that most children who grow up in poverty and suffering have to experience this lonely and desolate growth experience. Their hearts are always more sensitive than others, and their souls are more worried about life and the future. Often only through those times, when the depth and height of thought are constantly expanding, can we really face what happened and thank those hardships.

At the girls' art tutorial school in New Mexico, she really learned about the influence of art on children. Through art, children have a successful experience and feel their own value. In the study of art, this successful experience will spread to all areas of life, even the whole life. In fact, for children, it is not real art, but another expression of the soul. Art is not only technology, but also the habitat of the soul.

Reminds me of my favorite painting. Perhaps the best memory of my childhood is about painting, which is where I can make myself feel valuable. Only when you are immersed in painting can you appreciate the joy of life. Until now, I am still painting, not for anything else, just because of the warmth and beauty in my heart.

At the airport in Florida, she realized that the interests of consumers, whether they can be protected by businesses and their ability to protect themselves are closely related. On the train from the central part of the United States to the west, she can talk to strangers about China culture they don't know. On the cruise from Finland to Sweden, she met an Icelandic Chinese, Po, and talked about her story.

In key west Island, she visited the scenery on the island and dived into the Caribbean waters. In the Norwegian fjord, I experienced the precipitousness of mountains and rivers and the blue sea. I went to the place where Andersen wrote fairy tales in Denmark and brought back a little tin soldier. I went to Iceland and read the gentle and quiet poems of the tenacious people. When I arrived at Lake Baikal, I thought that Su Wu had been herding sheep here and felt the tenacity and persistence of human nature.

In Egypt, I saw the papyrus I missed. After thousands of years of wind and frost, it is still white and soft. I went to Japan and felt the Japanese nation's vigilance against disasters; I have also experienced the feeling of crowding that is hard to breathe on the Japanese subway.

Long-term dwelling will narrow our horizons and narrow our minds. Many times the conditions are limited, so read a book. From those few lines, I felt the vastness of the universe and the tenacity of life, and also felt the shortness of life, as if my heart had followed.

Perhaps, life is also a journey, there is no retreat, only progress, in a limited life, no matter where you are, please remember to bring your soul. Probably, the key to life is your own soul. The day when the soul awakens is the day when the key of life opens life. Only then can you truly appreciate the meaning and happiness of life.
