When I was still young, I thought it was not enough to understand life without reading. It was not until later that I realized that if I didn't understand life, I couldn't read. The meaning of reading is probably to use what you feel in life to read, and to use what you earn from reading to live.

I really have some fascinating thoughts after watching it. If you don't understand it, you can go and watch his movie of the same name.

Recommended by veteran cadres Zhang Xin and Chen, it is absolutely correct.

It is another thought-provoking masterpiece. The "wonderful" stories in the book are all from more "wonderful" stories in real life... Human nature is an eternal philosophical issue...

No matter whether you are poor or rich, you will never forget your original intention and always maintain your yearning for that person. Endless dreams and sadness, encouragement is motivation, hurt is also motivation, with so-called dreams to find the person in memory... There are many infatuated people in the world, but what is sad is that what they are waiting for is the broken shadow of time. Things change and people change, and emotions change with circumstances.

So-so

Mentioned in the TV series "Shan Shan Is Coming", just download it and watch it. Old routine, Western-style critical realism.

I read the first chapter on the train, and I don't know if it's because the carriage is swaying so much that I'm dazzled by it, or because my own understanding doesn't keep up with the rhythm. All in all, I'm a bit confused~

This book is so-so, there are too many such infatuated stories. Not as good as The Sorrows of Young Werther. Not much connotation.

Gatsby! An infatuated person is a fool! I once lost a memory because fate required a weak and ignorant child who had just grown up to abandon her ideals overnight, accept the whole world, and wander in order to survive. She had no choice but to forget! The God of Destiny indeed arranged for her to remember that past event many years later. Who can understand the heartbreaking pain! ! !

Thoughts after viewing

Reading in a hurry, what I gain is that a person's style in life determines the person he accompanies on his last journey; a car is a good thing but also a dangerous thing; the title of the book "The Great Gatsby", I think, is an affirmation that he left a rich legacy when he came out of the army penniless before his death, and that he persisted in his inner nobility and filial piety to his parents in this world that lacked warmth.
