If you don t do boring things, how can you send your life!

Qian Zhongshu, "Pipe Cone Edition", Volume IV, page 1433:

According to Zheng Shi (the case refers to Zheng Wenzhuo's "Half Rain Building Cong Banknote") said that "it is not a useless thing, how can it be a happy life", see Tao Hongjing's "On the Book of Emperor Wu of Liang", which seems to be wrong, Volume 46 (case refers to "Quanliang Wen") "Enlightenment with Emperor Wu of Liang" Seven poems did not have this at the beginning. The two languages are quoted in the past dynasties, and it is actually a section on identification, collection, purchasing, and reading and playing in the second volume of Zhang Yanyuan's "Records of Famous Paintings of the Past Dynasties": "I sighed and said:

If it is not a useless thing, then An Nengyue has an endless life! It's a hobby, close to a habit. "Chen Shidao's "Houshan Poetry Collection" Volume 12 "Inscription Mingfa Gao Xuan Over the Picture":

I know that calligraphy and painting are really beneficial, but I regret that there are not many years", that is, I use Zhang Yu instead; Jia seems to be a good collection, the name of the hall is called "Yuesheng", and the volume 12 of "Shuo Xuan" is called "Yueshengtang's Miscellaneous Notes", which is also taken from this Zhang language. However, Dong Qichang's "Rongtai Collection: Poetry Collection" Volume 4 "Imitation of Li Yingqiu Hanshan Map: Preface" cloud: "Yu Jie Nian Quanshi, thinner than eunuchs, has to paint the Tao."

Tao secluded in the clouds: 'If it is not for useless things, how can you enjoy a happy life!' 'Sympathy through the ages, but only faith, not to the laity"; Mistaken for the Lord's name early.

The self-preface of "Treatise on Books and Poems of Unhelpful and Beneficial Zhai" in Li Baosui's "Seven Kinds of Yizhou Li's Series" is also mistaken for the Tao language. The Zheng family passed on the lie and sat down. Xiang Hongzuo's "Remembering Cloud Words" C draft self-preface:

Whew! If it is not for useless things, how can it be sent to life! The times change, and the habits do not change"; Change the collection of calligraphy and painting to the writing of words and chapters, and it is easy to "please" to "send", which means more poignant.

The simplest explanation is: to do something in your life that you have hobbies that have little to do with your work, and to cultivate other interests and hobbies in order to enrich your life. 】

If you don't do boring (meaningless, time-wasting) things, how can you spend this long life!

In a very negative sentence.

"If you don't do things that are useless, how can you send them to a life with an end" is not to do things that are not beneficial, how can you entertain this endless life.

As early as the Warring States Period, Zhuangzi mentioned something similar: "My life also has a career."

And there is no end to knowledge. With the end, there is no end, and it is gone; He who has become a knower is gone."

Zhuangzi's meaning is that human life is limited, and knowledge is infinite, and the pursuit of infinite knowledge with a limited life will make it exhausting. The principle that Zhuangzi tells us is to do things in moderation and go with the flow.

1, Dong Qichang.

Rongtai Collection of Poems" Volume 4 "Preface to the Imitation of Li Yingqiu Cold Mountain" cloud: "Yu Jie Nian Quanshi, thinner than eunuchs, has the help of painting the Tao." Tao Seclusion Cloud:

If it is not a useless thing, how can you have a happy life! 'Sympathy through the ages, but only faith, not to the laity"; Mistaken for the Lord's name early.

2, Xiang Hongzuo (Xiang Liansheng) "Remembering Cloud Words".

Preface to the draft: "Whew! If it is not for useless things, how can it be sent to life! The times change, and the habits do not change"; ”

The meaning of this sentence is: If there are no useless things that exist, then how can we spend our limited and precious life time? That is, useless things are not necessarily completely meaningless, they are also able to enrich and enrich our lives, allowing us to better understand and feel the world.

Hello, I have seen your question, and the answer is being sorted out rapidly, please wait for two minutes

Hello, "If you don't do nothing, how can you send a life" means: 1) To do useless things in order to pass the time. 2) In order to live a limited life freely and happily, take the initiative to do unhelpful things.

Nearly a thousand years later, the Qing Dynasty poet Xiang Hongzuo (1798-1835) borrowed Zhang Yanyuan's words and made a slight change: "If it is not for useless things, how can you send a life!" ”

It means that you should do something in your life that you have hobbies that have little to do with your work, and you must cultivate other interests and hobbies in order to make your life colorful.

From - Qing Dynasty Xiang Tingji's "Yiyun Words A B C Ding Manuscript" ("A Draft Preface").

Original text: "Preface to the First Manuscript" cloud: "If it is not a useless thing, how can it be sent to a life?"

Translation: How can you get through this long and limited journey of life without doing things that seem meaningless?

If it is not a useless thing, how can you send this life with an end" from: Qing Dynasty Xiang Tingji's "Yiyun Ci A, B, C and Ding Manuscript" ("A Manuscript Preface").

Meaning: How can a person spend this long life if he does not do things that seem meaningless.

As early as the Warring States Period, Zhuangzi mentioned similar words: "My life has an end, and knowledge has no end." With the end, there is no end, and it is gone; He who has become a knower is gone."

Zhuangzi's meaning is that human life is finite, and knowledge is infinite, and the pursuit of infinite knowledge with a limited life will make you exhausted. The principle that Zhuangzi tells us is to do things in moderation and go with the flow.

Yes, if you don't do something unhelpful, how can you comfort yourself through your limited life?

Those who understand this truth can be said to have attained enlightenment, and can be called wise men. Most people, on the contrary, always claim to be doing something beneficial, and never know that there is a bridge in life.

I'm one of these people, after half a century, I still think about doing something meaningful all day long, but what is meaningful, who can say clearly, how can I say clearly, why bother, do what is in front of me, live today, it should be fine.

I also want to find one, or a group of people who understand this truth, to do useless things happily together, it should be very satisfying, very happy, my heart yearns for it, haha.
