Reading Ling Huxia's Empty Nest has changed my mind, and my spiritual satisfaction is far higher than my material needs.
The article mainly tells about; After the death of his wife who accompanied him for more than 40 years, an empty nester lost his spiritual support and suffered from insomnia all day. Because of his inner loneliness and nowhere to release his spirit and emotions, he took his beloved tiger for a walk to exercise, and his daughter occasionally came to see him. Finally, after experiencing the inner struggle, he finally listened to his wife's instructions before her death and felt that he wanted to find a new wife to spend this boring and lonely life. Both body and mind are getting better.
I think things can end perfectly. Old Wu, an empty nester, finally had someone to talk to and someone to cook for himself, and the days went on day by day.
Later, Aunt Yang planned to go to Beijing to take care of her daughter's confinement, and Lao Wu planned to go with her. However, neither her son in other places nor her 10,000 daughters around her supported her. When her son was thinking about his wife's confinement, his parents didn't take care of themselves for various reasons. Now I'm going to take care of other people's daughters with an aunt who hasn't been with me for a long time. I feel very puzzled and complain.
Later, Aunt Yang finally went to Beijing alone. Five months later, she told Lao Wu that she was not going to come back. Lao Wu was very sad when he heard the news. A spiritual pillar she had just sought finally collapsed again. Physical and mental health is getting worse and worse. Later, even the dog that accompanied him for many years disappeared. Finally, Lao Wu died and left with regret, leaving a note for Lao Wu and leaving nothing to be buried with his wife.
I wonder, if Lao Wu followed Aunt Yang to Beijing, would the result be different? You should be energetic and live a happy life.
After reading it, the first time; I cried, because the ending written by the author, Lao Wu was so pitiful that he left with sadness and regret.
The second time; My praise for the Great Xia is very real, and it really feeds back many problems in the real society. Father and daughter can do a lot for their children. Can you ask what it means? However, there are several people who really think about their parents and stand on their parents' side. It seems that there is really no such thing.
I read it for the third time today; I also reflected on many issues. I cry every time I watch it. I just told my husband. If I leave, you must find someone to accompany you. Someone retorted that I was stupid, looked at me in tears and comforted me that I was crazy. I don't know why I am so sad.
If you love your parents, you should respect their decisions. You can't kidnap them morally. As a child, you should not stand in your own position and ask your parents.
Spiritual comfort and support are far greater than the material giving I feel. I give my parents red envelopes, and they never accept them. My parents always say we have money. I know that it is the greatest filial piety to call and talk to them more and let them worry less.
Some friends commented; We should respect children's opinions more, and don't let them disrespect themselves when they are old.
I think respect should start at an early age.
If you have the opportunity to spend more time with your parents, especially those who help with their children at home, you can always make a phone call and talk to them for a few days.
In fact, everyone will experience loneliness. Whether we are teenagers, middle-aged or old, we should try our best to enrich our hearts, and don't always hope that others will get rid of loneliness for us.
When we face the abyss, the first thing we should think of is how to save ourselves, rather than asking others for help. But if we can't save ourselves, we must remember that we can't carry it alone.
Try to save yourself, don't ask for advice, and don't be influenced by children.
