Read the following materials and write as required.
There are 365 days in a year. Some people have passed 365 days; Some people only spend 1 day, repeating 365 times.
What associations and feelings have the above materials caused? Please write an argumentative essay or narrative of at least 800 words.
A brief analysis of the meaning of the problem
This material consists of two sentences. The first sentence is always to explain a fact; The second sentence lists two kinds of people's life contents and ways-the first one is rich in life and innovative in change; The second kind of people live a single, conservative and unchanging life.
We can't simply affirm or deny these two life contents and ways.
For the first kind of people, 365 days are different, and there are new changes every day, which is a manifestation of a positive attitude towards life. However, if freshness is only the form of life rather than the quality and artistic conception of life, people will be lost because of lack of constant persistence in the flow of life.
For the second kind of people, 365 days is like a day, with no change and single tone, which may be due to the lack of positive attitude towards life and feelings of love and investment; But from another point of view, this repetitive and monotonous life may just show a person's persistence and tenacity in dreams for decades, because the repetition is only the form of life, and the wonderful thing is the quality and artistic conception of life.
Several strategic choices in writing;
1. Choose two people's lifestyles or contents.
(1) affirm the first category, deny the second category, and grasp the contradiction of "richness and singleness": life should be rich, not monotonous/every day of life is fresh/cherish the present life/live in the present/wonderful life comes from love. ...
(2) Deny the first category, affirm the second category, and grasp the contradiction between "novelty and constancy": don't blindly seek novelty, insist on/have wonderful things in the repetition of life/do one thing well all your life. ...
2. Put forward new views on the choice of life content and way on the basis of materials.
How to spend every day? You can pursue novelty, you can stay single, and you can have other choices.
Excellent composition
Repeat yesterday and get rid of your old self.
Nowadays, the voice of personality freedom and life experience freedom is getting higher and higher, and more people begin to ask: How can we make every day different?
Kant once said, "I will exhaust all possibilities in my life." Many people misunderstand this sentence and choose to escape from reality, fearing the simple repetition of life. Therefore, the "walk-and-go travel" on the Internet is highly sought after. However, people who really put it into action often can't find the answers they want. What's more, I fell into the strange circle of dance academy.
Their fallacy lies in not accurately grasping the true meaning of "difference". What Kant said is true. However, today, the bondage of the workplace and the stability of life have not allowed people to avoid repetitive work and rest and pursue daily iterative life experiences. This means that people will inevitably repeat yesterday. In order to be different, we can only get rid of our old selves.
What is "breaking away from the old self"? Yin Hao's indifferent answer in Shi Shuo Xin Yu is fresh in people's memory: "I've been dealing with me for a long time, I'd rather be me." This is the self who is unwilling to live a monotonous life and chooses to change under the heavy external shackles. Every day benefits from knowledge and virtue, and every day gains growth and experiences a new life.
Mandela's life in prison is undoubtedly more boring and monotonous than you and me. But behind bars, he never stopped talking to himself, asking questions and introspection day and night, and finally he changed from a radical and violent man to a modest great man.
This is the best proof of repeating yesterday but different from yesterday, and it is also our only choice in this world with detailed social division of labor, that is, to get rid of the old self and welcome every day with a new look.
However, it is easier said than done. Even if we deeply understand this truth, many people are still struggling with their old selves, which is probably caused by inertia and unknown fears.
Breaking away from the old self is often equivalent to seizing new opportunities and opening an unprecedented world in the journey of life. Open source always needs sweat and even tears. So people regard this as a fear of the road and cling to the comfort of the known world. However, Lu Xun, who abandoned medicine and literature, and Wittgenstein, who abandoned the philosophy of aviation, only overcame their own inertia, discovered new fertile soil and made some achievements.
As for the fear of the unknown, it is unnecessary. Remember Eliot's motto: "The end of exploration will be the beginning." Every day's exploration of new possibilities and new self will surely make us start a new day with the satisfaction of "another different day". There is no harm in exploring the unknown, besides, isn't the unknown itself the "difference" we are looking for?
Master Hongyi said, "Holding an elephant is a thousand miles away." We should recognize the true meaning of life, not refuse to repeat yesterday and avoid repeating ourselves.
Treat repetition and change rationally
Nietzsche said: "Every day that never dances is a disappointment to life." However, should we choose a fixed dance step or change a pattern every day? Different people have different views, and wise people have different views. As long as they choose well, they are all worthy of recognition.
Why do some people like a different life every day? And why do some people prefer to repeat day after day? Tracing back to the source, whether it is repetition or change. Is guided by the heart. A colorful life can enrich the soul, expand the experience and add the ups and downs of life. Behind the seemingly monotonous life, repeated life can also thicken the riverbed of the spirit and make life more difficult to precipitate. The key question is when and where we choose the right way. When all beings suddenly realize, beauty will open a bright door for us.
Rousseau said: "People are born free, but they are everywhere in chains." It is true that we have the freedom to choose life, but we are repeatedly restricted in life. If this restriction limits our pursuit of dreams and makes our life exhausted in daily life, then why don't we choose to break the shackles and pursue a rich life? Sanmao travels in the Sahara and gets her own beauty in different lives every day; Gide endured a monotonous life and found his own life value after a long trip ... Some people's lives are wonderful because they have the courage to forge ahead, which makes those who are willing to be bound alive ashamed.
It is worth mentioning that choosing a rich life does not mean trying new tricks every day. Some people can enrich their lives by repetition. Thales realized the philosophy of life in his daily sewing, and Sisyphus realized the true meaning of life in the process of constantly pushing boulders every day. As Wittgenstein said, "I don't want to dance in the clouds, I just want to walk close to the ground." Down-to-earth, trying to do one thing best, can also contribute to the construction of life and let the soul grow.
Regrettably, today's people can't find a balance point in repeated changes, and even deviate from the baseline of human rational laws. There are people who are idle all day, and there are also people who are not motivated by mechanical life. They lost their thinking about life and became spiritual slaves. To avoid the appearance of these people, we should add rationally, subtract blindly, and grasp the dialectics of addition and subtraction of repetition and change. Choose to change in mediocrity and choose to repeat in the life we pursue. It is not a very pleasant thing to solve problems with changing ideas and improve our industry with repetitive mentality.
On the fulcrum of repetition and change, I hope we can treat it rationally and live a beautiful life that truly belongs to us.
