Features: Liu Xinwu, a renowned contemporary Chinese writer, has many works celebrated in the literary world. This book is the result of his long-term reflections and insights on society and life. Through everyday incidents, he interprets the truths that ordinariness is genuine and tolerance is a blessing. Deep in human nature, the hardest thing to bear is when someone once familiar and humble suddenly achieves success. To say that the line between vulgarity and elegance lies in whether one understands or can enter a poetic state is something people are more likely to accept. However, above elegance stands nobility, and this nobility does not refer to material wealth but to what we call the nobility of the spiritual aristocracy. Whether one has entered this realm of nobility can be determined, to some extent, by whether their heart has a conscious rhythm of pause in life—this point may not be easily grasped by everyone. To address social injustice, eliminate corruption, organize social life well, so that those who are "regulated" are no longer "regulated," enable the wealthy to be benevolent, and help the poor escape poverty—truthfully speaking, even if literature, along with other art forms, and even academic research and discussions exert their full efforts, the actual results they can achieve are ultimately limited. As for literature, its very nature may not be to save the world but to purify the soul.
