"Falling red is not a heartless thing, but turning into spring mud protects flowers more" comes from Gong Zizhen's "Ji Hai Za Shi, the fifth" in the Qing Dynasty. The following is an appreciation of this poem:The phrase "turn into spring mud to protect flowers more" highlights a lofty spirit of dedication. From an inspirational point of view, it inspires us to have a mind of self-transcendence and selfless dedication. Life should not only focus on one's own gains and losses, honor and disgrace. A truly great person is always willing to dedicate his accumulated knowledge, experience and strength to cultivate and support the latecomers and contribute to a greater cause after achieving a certain degree of personal growth. This kind of dedication is not to get rewards or praise from others, but out of deep yearning for good things and a sense of responsibility to promote the world to become a better place. It encourages us to break through the narrow self-limitation, realize a higher level of self-worth in dedication, make the meaning of life sublimate constantly in giving, and use our own "nutrients" to water the "flowers" of others' growth, so as to achieve self-transcendence on the road of dedication and write a more meaningful chapter in life.On the road of life, we often encounter setbacks and difficulties, just as flowers have experienced the withering of flowering period and become "red". Gong Zizhen's "Falling Red" was originally a symbol of the decline of life, but the poet gave it a completely different and inspirational interpretation. It inspires us that even in adversity, even if we fall from the original glamorous "branches" and fall into a seemingly down-and-out situation, we should not feel sorry for ourselves and sink passively. Just like falling red is not immersed in the fading sadness, but with a positive attitude, she sees the value that she can transform-turning into spring mud to nourish new flowers. This tells us that setbacks are not terrible. The key lies in whether we can change our perspective in the predicament, tap our new value, and turn the unfavorable situation into an opportunity to continue to help growth, help others and help society.
-The technique of expressing one's will by holding objects shows that the whole poem expresses one's aspirations and feelings through the concrete thing of "falling red", ostensibly describing the destination and value of falling red flowers, but in fact expressing one's grand ambition of being willing to contribute despite setbacks and eager to exert afterheat for the country and society, which makes the poem contain extremely rich and profound connotations in a short space and enhances the artistic appeal and ideological height of the poem.Significance of the timesCultural connotation level
Artistic conception creation levelSignificance of the times-Conforming to traditional values: In China's traditional culture, there has always been the idea of "helping the world if you are up to speed, and protecting yourself if you are poor", as well as the value orientation of advocating dedication and paying attention to spiritual inheritance. Gong Zizhen's poem fits in well with this cultural background. He still chooses to practice the concept of "helping the world at the same time" in another way when he is frustrated personally and can no longer directly display his ambition in the officialdom. He shows the spiritual quality of selfless dedication by self-metaphor, which echoes the feelings of home and country and the sense of responsibility held by people with lofty ideals throughout the ages. Therefore, this poem can arouse widespread resonance and is deeply loved and respected by people.
