Books are really "don't borrow or read"

When I was in middle school, I didn't learn much classical Chinese. Yuan Mei's Borrowing Books by Huang Sheng is the one with the deepest memory, especially the sentence "If you don't borrow books, you can't read them", which has inspired me to read books all these years. I borrow books to read.

1994 went to college. There were fewer cameras at that time. Of the 100 people at the same level, only two people have their own cameras and are still outside the stadium. On weekends, everyone begged two classmates to take pictures for them and also gave them some money. At first, the two students were enthusiastic, but later they got a little impatient and stopped giving money to everyone. Out of curiosity, I go to the school library to read books related to photography whenever I have time. Although there is no camera experiment, I feel it after watching it too much. When chatting, I often talk on paper, just like a "photographer". Later, I borrowed my classmate's camera to take pictures for everyone, and everyone praised me for taking good pictures. In order to make myself shoot better, I will borrow books from the library according to my own practice, thus forming a virtuous circle. Even the teachers in the library know that I love books on photography. As long as I buy new books on this subject, they will keep them for me. During my four years in college, I not only took photos of my classmates, but also published several works in the school magazine and some newspapers.

1998 When I graduated from college, I bought my first camera: Ricoh CR5 or SLR. Assigned to the unit, the publicity unit is the seagull camera, which is worse than my own. In addition, my published works were quickly transferred to the office to be responsible for publicity and culture. Because of the shortage of housing, I am arranged to live in the library, and it is also a very happy thing to study after work every day.

In 2002, I was admitted to graduate school, but I caught up with SARS the next year. The school implements closed management, which is really closed. We haven't left school for half a year. Some of my classmates are playing games, while others are in love. I still insist on going to the library. After SARS, I published five articles and finished my graduate thesis. Almost completed all the hard indicators required during the postgraduate period. When everyone was busy sending articles and writing papers, I began to look for an internship.

Fortunately, I stayed in Beijing, and my unit is close to the National Library. My living conditions have improved a lot over the years. I also have my own study, and I bought many books that I need and like for work, but many of them are there and I seldom read them. I also answered the words in Huang Sheng's book borrowing, "I am always in a scroll when I am gray." My main way of reading is to borrow books from the National Library. Every time I borrow them, I will carefully indicate the borrowing time on the book. I often have the idea that if I save them today and leave tomorrow, I won't see them. I borrow dozens of books every year. My personal growth experience tells me that books are really "not borrowed or read", and I often take my children to study in the national map on weekends and holidays.

Maybe you will say, I am very lucky, and I always have a library with me. In fact, in recent years, with the gradual advancement of reading for all, "public reading space" has come to everyone's side. As long as you want to read books and paper books, of course. Moreover, reading paper books is also a good way to set an example for children. At least in my family, I don't have to worry about leaving a child to play games and watch TV at home, but I forget to do my homework as soon as I read a book.
