the old man and sea
Several times in the novel the old man dreams of lions. The lion here is a symbol of the yearning and longing for a better life and the memory of a better life. Can also be understood as the old man living in a cruel environment, to create a kind of wings for themselves. It was this kind of wing that kept the old man fighting. However, this kind of wingspan can eventually appear in a dream, not a reality.But even so, the old man, faced with his own cruel fate, still stubbornly fought. The sentence "A man can be destroyed but not defeated" in the novel reminds me of the words of another great master from the East -- "True warrior, dare to face the dripping blood, face the bleak life". It is these words that inspire generation after generation to forge ahead even in the face of difficulties.
