I couldn't fully understand my father's words, but I felt a sense of warmth and hope. Perhaps, this is the meaning of the celebration. I looked around at the adults, each one joyfully raising their glasses and drinking. Their laughter was so hearty, and their expressions so relaxed, as if this place were paradise.
I curiously asked my father, "Dad, why are these uncles and aunts so happy while drinking?" My father smiled at me and said slowly, "Because they are celebrating peace and enjoying life." Celebrating peace, enjoying life? I looked at my father; his face was adorned with a gentle smile, and his eyes were deep and bright, as if he could see through everything.
At that moment, I suddenly felt that my father was so loving and wise. He must have many stories and insights hidden in his heart. "Dad, what is peace?" I asked curiously. After pondering for a moment, my father smiled and replied, "Peace is the treasure of life; it is something we all pursue. With peace, we can live and work in comfort, enjoy life, and find tranquility for our souls."
"Then how do we cherish peace?" I pressed on. "To cherish peace means to learn tolerance and understanding; it means to value life and ensure that every life has meaning," my father gently said. I nodded in partial understanding, yet my heart was filled with confusion and contemplation.
Though my father's words were simple, they contained profound truths that made me feel an unprecedented emotion. I sat quietly there, watching the lively scene before me, no longer just thinking about the delicious food but reflecting on my father's words. Peace and enjoying life—these all seemed ordinary yet were so extraordinary.
We often overlook what we have while pursuing what we do not possess. But in reality, what we have is the most precious. I looked up at my father; he still wore a gentle smile on his face, and his gaze was so warm and loving.
At that moment, a warm current surged in my heart, and I knew I was fortunate because I had such a wonderful father.
That night, I lay in bed, gazing at the moon outside the window, my thoughts drifting in my mind. My heart was filled with imagination and ambition.
I envisioned myself as a brave warrior, riding a warhorse, holding a spear, galloping across the battlefield at the frontier. My comrades and I stood together to defend our homeland and protect our loved ones.
We gathered around the campfire at the border, singing loudly, laughter echoing back and forth, creating a lively scene. Our hearts were filled with passion and determination; we feared neither hardship nor sacrifice. We only wanted to safeguard our homeland and ensure our families lived happy lives.
We drank heartily, getting completely intoxicated, even knowing that tomorrow we might face the battlefield and possibly death. Yet we still laughed boldly in the face of life.
"Do not laugh at those who lie drunk on the battlefield; how many have returned from wars throughout history?"
At that moment, my heart felt liberated; I seemed to see my future and my value. I wanted to study hard, train myself, and become a true warrior.
The next day, I woke up filled with gratitude for my father. I finally understood the meaning of the lines he recited from "Liangzhou Ci" last night.
"Do not laugh at those who lie drunk on the battlefield; how many have returned from wars throughout history?"
This line means that even if one is drunk, do not mock me because throughout history, how many warriors have been able to return safely from battle?
This line expresses the tragic emotions and heroic spirit of warriors, allowing me to deeply feel their fearless spirit and willingness to sacrifice. It also conveyed my father's message to cherish peace and enjoy life.
Even in such harsh places as our current frontier, people still maintain optimism and courage, cherishing every gathering and moment of joy.
At this moment, I finally understand the importance of cherishing peace and enjoying life that my father has always taught me.
