A poem summing up the past and looking forward to the future
1. If you realize the past, don't protest. If you know what will happen, you can pursue it.

Since Wei and Jin Dynasties, Tao Yuanming's "Return to Xi Ci".

Recognize that past mistakes are irreversible and know that there is still time to remedy them in the future.

Appreciation: A kind of repentance and happiness is beyond words, first words of self-reproach, and then words of self-forgiveness. Really, it's not far from going astray. I think today is right and yesterday is wrong, which expresses my contempt for officialdom and longing for the countryside.

2. It's a long way to go, and I will go up and down.

From Qu Yuan's Li Sao in the pre-Qin period.

Commentary: There is still a long way to go to pursue the truth, but I will persevere and spare no effort to pursue and explore.

Appreciation: Expressed Qu Yuan's enterprising mentality of "exploring the road before it is completely dark".

3, long hate this body is not me, when to forget the camp.

From Su Shi's Lin Jiang Xian Ye Gui to Lingao in Song Dynasty.

Explanation: I hate official career. This body is not my own anymore.

Appreciation: This philosophical exposition is full of the poet's personal feelings, deep feelings and heartfelt words, so it has its own touching power.

4. On the side of the sunken ship, Qian Fan and Wan Muchun are in front of the sick tree.

From Liu Yuxi's "The First Meeting in Yangzhou" in the Tang Dynasty.

Explanation: There are still thousands of sailboats from Qian Qian passing by capsized ships, and thousands of trees are thriving in front of withered trees.

Appreciation: Liu Yuxi compares himself to a sinking ship and a sick tree. Although he is disappointed, he is quite philosophical. On the side of the sunken ship, Qian Fan is competing; Before a sick tree, everything is spring. He excavated these two sentences from Bai Juyi's poems, but encouraged Bai Juyi not to grieve for his loneliness and waste, showing his open mind about the changes of the world and the rise and fall of his official career.

There is no doubt about mountains and rivers, and there is another village.

From the land tour of Shanxi village in Song Dynasty.

Commentary: the mountains overlap and the water twists and turns, worrying that there is no way to go. Suddenly, a mountain village appeared between willows and flowers.

Appreciation: This sentence describes the scenery along the mountains and rivers, which contains philosophy and is a metaphor for the joy of seeing vitality again in a difficult situation. It has been widely quoted for thousands of years.
