This book of Yu Hua pointed out one leaves us the closest farthermost perhaps topic: Living. Yes, our happy event, anger, sad, happy, we are living; We are lost, we get, we are living still. In such big environment, derived to baffle the problem of a few acting people: We why and vivid.
余华的这本书点出了一个离我们最近又或者最远的话题：活着。是的，我们喜、怒、哀、乐，我们活着；我们失去，我们得到，我们还是活着。在这样的大环境中，衍生出了一个困惑了几十代人的问题：我们为何而活。
We teach with respect to ground of type be engraftinged as a child: Live for the following life, future, live for parental family teacher, to make a career one time vivid …… little imagine, we cast living essence. These seeing be like ” of wonderful “ general principle, because this is planted,absurd —— is in frame living it is to get, it is to obtain influence, money, approbate etc. Wanted you to lose these only, lost the sense of existence.
我们从小就被灌输式地教育：为了以后的生活、前途而活，为了父母家人老师而活，为了成就一番事业而活……殊不知，我们抛掉了活着的本质。这些看似美妙的“大道理”，骨子中是荒唐的——因为这种活着是为了得到，是为了获得权力、金钱、认可等等。只要你失去了这些，就失去了存在的意义。
But, why is blessing expensive however can subsist?
可是，为什么福贵却能活下去？
His one's early years lost money and status, lost …… of mother, son, daughter again he lost everything. But, why is he returned living, and very hopeful?
他早年失去了钱和地位，又失去了母亲、儿子、女儿……他失去了一切。但是，他为什么还活着，而且很乐观？
Be willing because of him living, he is living and living. Missing thing is not the dreadest, lost living will, just be the deadliest. We are living if seem the end with great empty actually to what realize to look only, that is a machine. Living purpose actually very small, it is subsist faces the world. Fixed position is too high, lose ego easily instead.
因为他愿意活着，他为活着而活着。丢失东西并不是最可怖的，失去了活着的意志，才是最致命的。我们活着若只为了实现哪些看似伟大实则空洞的目标，那就是机器了。活着的目的其实很小，就是活下去面对世界。定位太高，反而容易迷失自我。
So much now person commits suicide because of miss the bus, flatter oneself is cast off, it is take along sth to sb took composition life actually. Their purpose is too excessively long-distance big, but no more than is: Money, authority. Did not understand even living significance, be in so after losing these, why to talk about stage a comeback?
现在那么多人因为事业失败自杀，自以为摆脱，实际上则是捎走了作文性命。他们的目的太过远大，但无非就是：钱，权。连活着的意义都没有理解，所以在失去这些后，何谈东山再起？
Living itself is a kind of a kind of value, meaning. Blessing is expensive, can commit suicide when decline of family financial situation, be shot dead possibly when be a soldier, may distress when the family member dies and dead …… but he chose subsist. Somebody thinks this is weak behavior, but as a life individual, living be the first important thing? In the book, the dragon that ever was a landlord 2 by execute by shooting; Ever was a head of a county spring the commit suicide in be born in Culture Revolution; The mayor that ever was production team header is pulled …… of criticize and denounce sb they “ ever ” is what VIP, also stand to pass life peak, but drop came down to fall to smash; They also “ ever the sniff of the behavior that maintain an order with expensive to blessing ” , but oneself lost a lot however finally. Because of them for gold, influence, position living. Liberate, Culture Revolution, the society changes greatly, lost these, did not live —— they from do not have a living itself to should return a responsibility at the beginning, as time passes, lost live to be the volition of the last moment.
活着本身就是一种价值、一种意义。福贵，在家道中落时可以自杀，在当兵时可能被击毙，在亲人去世时可能悲痛而死……但他选择了活下去。有人认为这是软弱的行为，但作为一个生命个体，活着不是第一重要的事吗？书中，曾是地主的龙二被枪决；曾是县长的春生在文革中自尽；曾是生产队队长的村长被拉去批斗……他们都“曾”是什么大人物，也都站到过人生顶峰，但都跌下来摔了粉碎；他们也都“曾”对福贵的保命行为嗤之以鼻，但最后自己却丢了命。因为他们为了钱财、权力、地位活着。解放、文革，社会大变，丢失了这些，就不活了——他们从一开始就没把活着本身当回事，久而久之，就失去了活到最后一刻的意志。
Want me to say, the society is changing forever, you also are being worn in move ceaselessly the position. You get everything likely at any time, also lose likely at any time all. The success is not actually significant, because succeed,just make the life better just. The most important, when it how still be is the most difficult to how still be subsist. And be about to decide an issue at this moment: We for living and living.
要我说，社会永远在变化，你也在不断在挪着位置。你随时有可能得到一切，也随时有可能丢失所有。其实成功并不重要，因为成功只是让生活更好而已。最重要的，还是如何在最困难的时候活下去。而这时就要确定一件事：我们只为了活着而活着。(文/赵传畅)
