_______ (the person who lets grass bloom)
Now it is summer, and summer is precisely the season when various plants are at their most vigorous. Their leaves are striving to turn green; their flowers are striving to turn red— they are all striving to show their beauty to the world!
Because the flowers, grasses, and trees know: if you miss the beautiful opportunity in your life, waiting for the time when 'autumn Wind bleak, dew turns to frost' and the autumn Wind sweeps away the fallen leaves, then at that time, if you still want to beautify the world or turn red, there will be no chance.
In response, the ancients long ago warned us—
"Life is a temporary stay, fleeting like dust in a whirlwind."
"Why not whip a swift horse and first seize the vital crossing?"
"Do not merely cling to poverty and lowliness; constant struggle brings hardship."
Putting the ancients' words plainly: life in this world is merely like a traveler—coming hurriedly and leaving hurriedly; or like dust occasionally swept up in a great wind, not only brief and empty, but also involuntary. Still, while one is young and in the prime of life, strive for the ideals in your heart! Otherwise, when the leaves of life fall and wither, any regret then will be too late.
Even when I was a teenager studying, my friend Zhong Wei Yun already understood these principles—
"If one does not strive in youth, one will only regret in old age."
Therefore, he strove himself, struggled through youth. He set his direction to beautify the world: researching the usage of punctuation marks.
Studying punctuation marks—what could be worth studying about those tiny punctuation marks? This is truly inconceivable!
However, how many inconceivable things there are in this world!
This, as a Western philosopher once said: you have your thoughts—
You are like a solid, firm tower, unmoved by time, unshaken by storms; while I have my thoughts—
A patch of tender grass spreads in all directions; in its sway you can see delight.
Perhaps friends, like me, are puzzled by Zhong Wei Yun's research: what cannot be researched, why solely study those dull, boring punctuation marks?
But in the eyes of the young Zhong Wei Yun, that tiny punctuation mark is exactly like a tender patch of grass by the spring riverbank—so adorable. And from that love, he saw delight!
Actually, grass, even fragrant grass, is not particularly adorable. Although everyone will sing the high tune: 'No floral scent, no towering trees, look—my companions spread to the ends of the earth.'
…………………
Yet the little grass at the ends of the earth is not willing to remain a mere blade of grass for a lifetime. Some say that grass that can bloom is beautiful and adorable!
Someone shares my feeling, he said—
When the flower has not yet bloomed, the flower is still grass.
When the flower has bloomed, the grass has become a flower.
This grass is still not like the flower; it does not belong to the same class: grass can never compare to a flower. Although grass is also beautiful, but the flower is more beautiful than grass!
Friends surely guessed: Liu Guozong's friend Zhong Wei Yun must have turned from grass into a flower, or bloomed among the grass leaves!
Yes, friends, you guessed correctly—
Our nation's renowned language educator Liu Guozheng (Liu Guozheng and Liu Guozong are two different people, Africa relative relationship) praised and evaluated Zhong Wei Yun in this way—
………You have devoted yourself to researching (punctuation), persevered diligently, achieved some results, I greatly admire……………..
Friend, please remember: a person whose education is only a rural junior high school graduation, his research achievements can earn such an elder's 'admiration'!
This grass, hasn't it already bloomed?
