God is in the rain

Camus: "A more convenient way to know a city is to ask people there how to live, love and die."

I never know what it's like to walk on the streets of foreign countries; Or in a foreign land thousands of miles away, Wan Li, will you have a special feeling that you have become a "foreigner", the object of thousands of words that foreigners secretly comment on, and there is a kind of "but a sandpiper in a vast, vast world!" Vague and erratic beauty? The beauty of wandering, I am obsessed with this beauty because of the three hairs in the Sahara desert. "There will always be a hometown of past lives" makes me want to go abroad and travel all over Qian Shan for a long time.

When I was about to leave this country, I was walking in a corner of a church next to a Russian city. Winds from all directions fell from the sky, and mud and flowers brought crisp and continuous drizzle, which sounded like broken bamboo, like small beads around a jade plate, and like heavy snow in the air. The rain smells good, too. At first it smells ethereal and dreamy, then it smells like grass, and finally it smells like ginkgo biloba and a little mint. In the intoxicating light and smell, pigeons spread their wings in the rain and landed on the grass for food. Dark clouds swept over the silent church dome. One or two Russians lingered in the wind and rain with umbrellas, leaving me a silent figure with blurred rain ... Russians often take umbrellas when they go out, but they don't want to take shelter from the rain. It's rainy, so they can walk in the rain. I wonder if they have a pair of big hands as strong as vikings in their pockets to warm a pair of slender hands. There are also many couples. I passed them quietly, like a silent cloud overhead.

Before leaving China, the tour guide joked that there was only one summer in Russia. Because the weather that exceeds 25 degrees all year round is usually only one or two days, and the rest are as sloppy and cool as autumn. Slowness is a life feeling of Russians. Although Russians drive fast, it is said that they drink with friends, go to the theater to watch ballet, and enjoy the hard and heavy warmth of the ancient stone road in the blue world and the sunshine shining on their shoulders overhead, which is as powerful as hot rain …

Then naturally, do as the Romans do. Slow down, Russia is so big, but when you slow down, you feel that the world is getting smaller: watch a bronze statue riding on a horse and stepping on a poisonous snake that instigates Adam and Eve; It's exciting to watch pigeons land on the godfather's cross. I always wander around a few streets. This road leads to the naval school, this road leads to the central square, and this road leads to the Winter Palace. Familiar flowers and coffee always come from a small restaurant at the intersection ... I want to know about Russia, not only through my own actions, but also through careful observation. Russia shows its antique style and worship of antique style everywhere, but when a couple is sitting on the sunny grass in front of Moscow University reading a book, the young people in Victory Square hold hands and thank the martyrs for creating a bright future for them ... I can't help feeling that the love atmosphere in Russia is really strong, and almost all the girls with blond hair and blue eyes are accompanied by a muscular and elegant young man and a pack of humorous gentlemen. Probably also related to Russia's relatively open concept of marriage. This is really an ancient and young country. The remains of the monarch make it older and deeper, and love puts a fresh and sweet veil on him …

In the rain, I took out a piece of bread, kneaded it into fine powder and threw it into the grass. The fluffy clouds stirred in the rain immediately gathered together. The little head fluctuated with the rhythm of the rain, and suddenly a few flew in. The sparrow is very flexible, jumping between the pigeon and the bread, which makes the pigeon very angry. They are not afraid of people. Some of them boldly jumped on my feet, and I dared not move for fear of stepping on them.

Rain is a beautiful background. The healthy and strong Russian people who are not afraid of rain have been pursuing beauty in the rainy season. The birds around me obediently followed me and asked for the last bite of bread. Suddenly, one ash and one hundred and one black came to me in the rain, protecting the camera with ash. A pair of lovers held hands and looked at me in the rain like a pair of angels. The man was very enthusiastic, tall and handsome. He stepped forward and smiled at me and said a word in Russian. It is said that Russians have a strong sense of nationality and generally can't look directly at foreigners when they speak English. I smiled and shook my head. The photographer said something to me in English. It turned out to be like taking a wedding dress for a couple with these pigeons as the background. He used the word "give" and I smiled.

Pass the noodles to the photographer, who scatters crumbs around his lovers and then orders them to run hand in hand. In an instant, it was dawn, pigeons were flying, and suddenly they floated to the dark clouds in the distance. The rain blurred the wedding dress and suit. They are running forward, they are chasing forward, and the ancient church on the side overlaps with thousands of engagements and vows of lovers. ...

God saw this sentence in a book "The End of Love" in the rain. I don't know what it means in the book, but it is inseparable from love. At the moment, I really feel that there is a generous and broad existence. God stood somewhere in the rain, standing in a bright puddle, standing on the clear dew on the grass, standing in the countless feathers of pigeons, standing in the shutters of the church, standing in the warm palm of his big hand, standing in the ring worn on his slender hand, silently watching his creation, sweet and happy, rushing to a brand-new future in the rain and fireworks of love.

A writer once imitated Yu Guangzhong's Listening to the Cold Rain and went to the heavy rain alone, trying to find that feeling. Unfortunately, I just felt the cold of the rain and completely lost my interest in "listening". Later, he reflected on himself and wrote an article "Pouring Cold Rain". He knew that there was no girl around to accompany him through the misty rain. Yu Guangzhong's original words were: "Once on a rainy night, the tarpaulin of a tricycle was hung up. On the way home, the world in the tent is small, and she hides outside the jurisdiction of the police. The bigger the raincoat pocket, the better. One hand can hold a slender hand. " This is the true meaning of rainy season. Without love, you can only water it. When you have a lovely little hand, you can have the mind to soak in the gentle rain country with her, listening, smelling and watching, dribs and drabs from the ground, ups and downs. The rainy season is the flower season, spring. I think this is one of my greatest gains in understanding Russia. Even if people can be lonely enough to meditate and realize the Tao, you can be happy enough to experience the philosophy of heaven and earth. Let's listen to the wind and frost together, let's not envy immortals together, and let's enjoy it silently in the rain together.

I believe that human beings can solve all the problems about truth, goodness and beauty, and no one needs to turn to God. This has touched me many times. The courage and ability of human beings to pursue truth, goodness and beauty is really beyond God's estimation. I ran to Russia for the beauty of wandering, and my lover wandered for the beauty of rainy days. Our meeting ... Is it a coincidence that human beings' thirst for truth, goodness and beauty makes our lives overlap? Anyway, Russia is romantic and loves beauty, and its first impression is good.

Think again about the sentence "God is in the rain". When you are in pain, you want God to touch your shoulder. When you are happy, just like the couple who took a wedding dress in the rain, God will bless you silently. Einstein was once called a man who is infinitely close to God, because he penetrated the truth of physics-whenever a person is infinitely close to the truth of truth, goodness and beauty, God will be with him. Sometimes, God is in our life, and we can find him without going to church.
