After closing "the old man and the sea" gently and close my eyes quietly, in my mind, it's full of frightening pictures of the old man fighting with the shark. I'm afraid of these bloody pictures, but I'm deeply attracted by the old man's confidence, tenacity, courage, fear of losing, courage to fight, and strive to defend the noble quality of his life.
The novel mainly describes Santiago, a Cuban fisherman, who was born with a set of good fishing skills - eyesight, physical strength, skills, etc., but he was not lucky. He did not catch fish in 84 days, and no one was willing to go to sea with him. Even the only child was forced to leave because of the wishes of his parents, leaving him to drift on the sea alone. When he was ready to give up fishing and return home, he finally found a salmon that was 18 feet long and weighed more than 500 pounds. Without weapons, water and food, Santiago fought with salmon for three days and nights, and the salmon was killed by Santiago. However, Santiago was attacked by sharks on its way home. When he returned to the port, only the remains of salmon were caught.
We have to admit that "the old man and the sea" is not only the great praise of heroism, but also the contemporary echo of ancient Greek tragedy. "A man is not born to be defeated." "a man can be destroyed, but not defeated." This is what Santiago repeatedly mentioned in his fight with sharks, and what Hemingway wanted to tell readers. It is undeniable that a person will have weakness. When a person admits the weakness and tries to overcome it, there is no inevitable relationship between his life value and success or failure. Romance Roland said: there is only one kind of real heroism, that is, people who see the world as it is and love it. A hero is a person who has the courage to face setbacks, challenges and himself. Even if he fails, his will won't be destroyed and his dream will still be persisted. Santiago, the old fisherman, is such an image. He knows that the sea is unfair to him, and he is still not afraid of failure and does not yield to fate. Even in the end, the dream still hasn't come true, and he can only recall the past strong years in his dream, but the hero hasn't fallen, and he is still the strong one in life.
I think life is like the old man fishing at sea, there will be all kinds of difficulties that need to be faced bravely. Even if there is no success, we should not surrender ourselves, leaving regret for life. Reading the book "the old man and the sea" makes me feel the courage and strength to overcome difficulties. In the future, we may encounter more and more serious setbacks and failures, but I believe that as long as we think of the old fisherman by the sea, his strength and his love for life, we can also become heroes and overcome difficulties!
