Learn to love and care
Here
I am sitting on a couch alone, thinking about what
I have just
finished reading with tears
of sadness filling my eyes and fire of
indignation
filling
my
heart,
which
revived
my
exhausted
soul
that
has
already
been
covered
by
the
cruelty
and
the
selfishness
of
the
secular
world for a long time. It is truly what
I felt after reading Oliver
Twist,
written by the prominent British author Charles
Dickens.
The resonance
between me and the book makes me feel not only the
kindness and the wickedness of all the
characters in the novel, but
what
this
aloof
society
lacks,
and
what
I
lack
deep
inside.
These
supreme
resources I??m talking about right now
are somewhat different from
minerals,
oil
that
we
usually
mention.
They??re
abstract
like
feelings,
and
some
kinds
of
spiritual
stimulation
that
all
of
us
desire
anxiously
from one another ???? love and care.
Those
charitable
figures
whom
Dickens
created
in
the
novel
are
really
what
we
need
in
life.
They
showed
love
and
care
to
others,
just
as
the
gentle
rain from the sky fell upon the earth, which was
carved into
my heart deeply.
Mr. Brownlow is one such person.
The other day he had
one of his elaborate watches stolen by two
skilled
teenage
thieves,
Artful
Dodger
and
Charley
Bates,
and
thought
naturally it was Oliver, who was an
orphan and forced to live with a
gang
of thieves, that had done it because he was the
only one near by
after
the
theft
had
taken
place.
Being
wrathful,
he
caught
Oliver,
and
sent
him
to
the
police
station
where
the
ill-tempered,
unfair
magistrates worked. Fortunately for
him, Oliver was proved innocent
by
one
onlooker
afterwards.
With
sympathy,
Mr.
Brownlow
took
the
injured,
poor Oliver to his
own home. There Oliver lived freely and gleefully
for
some
months
as
if
he
were
Mr.
Brownlow??s
own
son.
One
day,
however,
Mr. Brownlow asked
Oliver to return some books to the bookseller and
to send some money for the new books
that he had already collected.
The
thief
Oliver
once
stayed
with
kidnapped
him.
After
that
he
disappeared
in
Mr.
Brownlow??s
life.
Searching
for
a
while,
Mr.
Brownlow
had
to
believe the
fact that he
had run away
with
his money.
But
dramatically, they came across each
other again a few years later.
Without
hesitation,
Mr.
Brownlow
took
Oliver
home
for
the
second
time
not caring if he had done something
evil.
Perhaps
most
of
us
would
feel
confused
about
Mr.
Brownlow??s
reaction.
But as a matter of
fact, this is just the lesson we should learn from
him.
Jesus
said
in
the
Bible.
?°Forgive
not
seven
times,
but
seventy-times
seven.?±
Why
is
that?
Because
forgiveness
is
our
ability
to remove negative thoughts and
neutralize them so our energy may be
spent on doing what we came here for.
We cannot move forward in our
future if
past issues cloud our thinking. Stop put Mr.
Brownlow into
the
list of
your
models. Always
give
people
a
second
chance
no matter
what they might have done. That??s also
a substantial part of loving
and caring
others.
Charles
Dickens
said:?°Love
makes
the
world
go
around.?±
These
immortal
words
have inspired
and
will keep on
inspiring us
to
chant
the melody
of love and to
say the
prayer
of
care forevermore.
Let us,
therefore,
enjoy
life and treat other people lovingly. These
principles are the
roots
and
foundations
of
beliefs
supporting
this
article
and
our
mission
together.
Pride
and Prejudice ?¨°???????????
Many
people simply regard Pride and Prejudice as a love
story, but
in
my
opinion,
this
book
is
an
illustration
of
the
society
at
that
time.
She
perfectly
reflected
the
relation
between
money
and
marriage
at
her
time
and
gave
the
people
in
her
works
vivid
characters. The
characters
have their own
personalities. Mrs. Bennet is a woman who makes
great
efforts to marry off her
daughters. Mr. Bingley is a friendly young
man,
but
his
friend,
Mr.
Darcy,
is
a
very
proud
man
who
seems
to
always
feel
superior.
Even
the
five
daughters
in
Bennet
family
are
very
different. Jane is
simple, innocent and never speaks evil of others.
Elizabeth
is a
clever
girl who
always has
her
own opinion.
Mary
likes
reading
classic
books.
(Actually
she
is
a
pedant.)
Kitty
doesn??t
have
her
own
opinion
but
likes
to
follow
her
sister,
Lydia.
Lydia
is
a
girl
who
follows
exotic
things,
handsome
man,
and
is
somehow
a
little
profligate.
When
I
read
the
book,
I
can
always
find
the
same
personalities
in
the
society
now.
That
is
why
I
think
this
book
is
indeed
the representative of
the society in Britain in the 18th century.
The
family
of
gentleman
in
the
countryside
is
Jane
Austen??s
favourite topic. But this little topic
can reflect big problems. It
concludes
the
stratum
situation
and
economic
relationships
in
Britain
in
her
century.
You
can
find
these
from
the
very
beginning
of
this
book.
The
first sentence in this book is impressive. It
reads: ?°It is
a
truth
well
known
to
all
the
world
that
an
unmarried
man
in
possession
of a large fortune must be in need of a
wife?±. The undertone is very
clear:
the foundation of
the marriage
at
that time is
not emotion but
possession.
People
always
think
that
Austen
was
an
expert
at
telling
love
stories.
In
fact, the marriage in her book is not the result
of love, but the
result of economic
needs. After reading this book, I know the truth
is that a poor woman must be in need of
a husband, a wealthy man.
I couldn??t forget how eager Mrs. Bennet wants to
marry off her
daughters.
If
you
want
to
know
why
she
is
so
crazy
about
these
things,
I
must
mention
the
situation in
Britain
at that
time. Only
the eldest
son
had
the
privilege
of
inheriting
his
father??s
possessions.
Younger
sons and daughters
who are used to
luxurious
lives have no
choice
but
marry
a
man
or
woman
in
possession
of
a
large
fortune
to
continue
their
comfortable lives. Thus, we can see
that getting married is a way to
become
wealthier,
particularly
for
women
without
many
possessions.
Jane
Austen
told
us
that
money
and
possession
determined
everything,
including marriage and love in her
century.
In ?°Pride and
Prejudice?±, the sister of Mr. Bingley strongly
opposed
his
plan
of
marrying
Jane
because
the
Bennets
don??t
have
many
possessions
and
their
social
positions
are
much
lower
than
them.
From
this,
we
can
see
there
are
a
lot
of
obstacle
for
a
not
very
rich
woman
to
marry
a
wealthy
husband.
The
society,
the
relatives
would
not
allow
them to
get married.
In modern
society, although the marriages of economic needs
have
decreased rapidly, the concept of
?°money determines everything?± is
still rooted in some people??s mind. A
lot of parents try hard to
interfere
their
children??s
marriages.
Education
background,
possessions,
jobs remains the main reason that may influence
one??s
marriage. Marry for money is
still a big problem in our society. We
can??t help thinking: can money
determine everything?
Austen
left
this
problem
for
us
to
think.
The
genius
of
Jane
Austen
lies in this perfect
simplicity, the simplicity that reflects big
problems.
Although
Austen
was
only
21
when
she
wrote
?°Pride
and
Prejudice?±,
her
sharp
observation
of
social
lives
makes
the
style
of
this book surprisingly
mature and lively. The plots in her works are
always very natural. The development of
the plot is as inevitable as
a
problem in
mathematics.
I
think the depth
of Pride
and
Prejudice is
the
reason
that
makes
this
book
prominent
and
classic.
Today,
her
book
still
can be the guide telling us the economic
relationships both at
her time and in
modern time.
