This is a philosophical poem written by Cao Cao in his later years, which tells the poet's attitude towards life. The philosophy in the poem comes from the poet's real experience of life, so it is written with great interest, with a sincere and strong emotional power; Philosophy and poetry are expressed through figurative techniques, so that the perfect combination of reasoning, ambition and lyricism has been achieved in specific artistic images.

The whole poem is full of ups and downs, but also meticulous in mechanism, shining with the light of philosophical wisdom, and sending out a sense of progress, vibrating with an optimistic tone. The artistic style is unpretentious, lofty and impassioned, showing the poet's enterprising spirit of self-improvement and optimistic spirit of loving life. The length of human life is not completely determined by the sky, as long as the body and mind are healthy, you can prolong your life, here it can be seen that the poet has a negative attitude towards the mandate of heaven, and the optimistic spirit of having confidence in things is man-made, expressing the poet's unwillingness to age, not believing in the destiny of heaven, the struggle is endless, and the pursuit of great ideals will never stop the ambition and pride.

Cao Cao's view of life is quite a bit of dialectical thinking, he first talked about respecting the laws of nature, people always have to die. Then he said that in his limited life, he should give full play to his subjective initiative, be proactive, and make meritorious contributions. Finally, we will talk about the fact that man is not completely powerless in the face of the laws of nature, and although the length of a person's life cannot violate the objective laws, it is not completely subject to God's arrangement.

If you pay attention to maintenance regularly to make it healthy and happy, you can also prolong your life. Cao Cao's "blessing of recuperation" does not mean that there is nothing to do, sit and recuperate, but that a person's mental state and physical health are the most important, and should not be depressed due to the twilight, but to "be strong" to have a never-ending ideal pursuit and positive and enterprising spirit, always optimistic and energetic, self-improvement, and maintain ideological youth. Cao Cao expressed the importance of human spiritual factors to health through personal experience, and in this respect, it is also a wonderful health theory.
