情 Love
ever since the dawning of the history of mankind, there have
been myriads of diversifed inventions, discoveries, and even
explorations of the mysteries of the universe. in fact, the
human beings are so intelligent that we have solved almost all
kinds of problems we have confronted with .
however, nobody has ever made out what the word “love ”
really connotes, not even the most famous people such as great
politicians, saints and philosophers can clarify the meaning
of “love ”, neither can they deal with the various affairs
concerning love. love is like a huge boundless net that shrouds
us all in. we can neither break away from it nor escape from
it. like it or not, we are always entangled in it. it is an
invisible net without any form, that shrouds in different
people from different angels; it is a merciless net that upsets
us or even tortures us to death. it is also a supreme net which
almost no human can surpass. even if they are heroes, emperors,
wise men or saints, they can do nothing but show their
helplessness in its face. those who can breathe through the
holes of the net should be regarded beyond commonness and
vulgarity. love can bring us temporary comfort and happiness,
but mostly they bring about annoyance and sufferings. maybe
this is the reason why many people have seen through the
illusions of the mortal world. however it is not so easy to break
away from this boundless, ever-existing and indifferent net of
love.
love is varied and changeable, but roughly it can be divided
into three categories: family love, fraternal love and amatory
love. not like monkey king who jumped out of the rocks, we were
all born after mother’s pregnancy of about nine months, hence
we have countless relatives without any choice: parents,
grand-parents, and grand-parents-in-law, uncles and aunties,
brothers and sisters, etc. and once looking at the genealogical
tree, we’ll see no end. family love is what everyone longs for,
but the warmth and support from our beloved ones are what
everyone yearns for the most. but how many of us are determined
to contribute to our beloved one? and how many don ’t expect
repayment and relaxed. conscience even if they have the desire
and preparation to contribute to their beloved. the distance
between relatives is different and so are their expectations.
but since it ’s very difficult to know how much we should expect,
a lot of worries and distresses emerge.
parents always expect their children to show their filial
obedience, or at least pay them frequent visits after they have
got married. if the children fail to do this, they feel hurt
and upset, and they ’ll even complain about their children,
because they just can ’t understand why their children don ’t
care about them after what they have done for the children for
so many years to bring them up. nevertheless, one’s experience
determines his ideology. young children are naturally attached
to their parents, but when they grow up, specially when they
have made their own friends, and got married, what they need
most is independence and freedom, and parents sometimes might
become their burden. once there is generation gap, it becomes
more difficult to communicate and this keeps them away from
their parents. objectively speaking, they need more
independence in order to achieve success. in the present
society, what the children want to have most is the economic
support from their parents, not their moral support or guidance.
they would complain if your economic support is not up to their
expectations. the love from uncles and aunties would naturally
dwindle after they have had their own children. only the love
from grand-parents and grand parents-in-law is pure and demands
no repayment, and they are also too old to wait for any repayment.
as for the distant relatives, their love depends on their needs,
just as the old saying goes “the poor have no friends even if
they live in downtown while the rich have distant relatives even
if they live in deep mountains ”. granny liu, a distant kinsfolk,
in a dream of the red mansions , claims kinship with the wealthy
jia family, thinking that she may benefit from it in some ways.
liu might have run away without any traces if the jia family
had been a poor one. another saying goes “close neighbors are
better than distant relatives. ” the most difficult is to
manage the relatives when doing business together, just as what
the tv series program liu laogen discloses. it is all right to
stay poor together, but as soon as the business grows prosperous,
the group will become estranged and even dissolve because of
the unfair distribution. family love is like a maze which we
shouldn ’t go too far into it, otherwise, we’ll surely get lost .
love is a bilateral matter and unilateral love can only lead
you to nowhere in spite of your good intentions. family love
is, sometimes, like an arranged marriage, leaving no choices
to you. due to the different experiences and tastes, staying
