The meaning of living out of life

Misery itself is meaningless, but we can give it meaning through our own response to suffering.
From this book, from the Frankel of life in Auschwitz, I learned that the ultimate freedom of humanity is the freedom to choose one's attitude and way of life in any situation!
I also think of "Xiangtalan" in a paragraph: "Even if the shackles of the body, a blood-stained, isolated helpless, I am still free, I can decide to hate the people who tortured me, or forgive them," when the shackles are the only one, that freedom will give you infinite hope. To hate, or to forgive, this choice is enough to determine the fate of a person's life. ”
Freedom begins with self-redemption, don't give up on your responsibility!

Frankel as the founder of the therapeutic method of meaning. From their own experience to speak more convincing, but the focus, or the author in the suffering of life is not as depressed as most people, the author face The suffering of the optimism let each reader moved, awe. After narrow escape, can reflect to examine their own heart, examine the public psychology, and to examine the deepening, sublimation, the system to discuss the meaning of life, rare! However, as the founder, Frankel did not spend too much time and ink in theory, a few words contain really too much information, read the second part of the book, very laborious.

I am most fascinated by the author's sincere and detached perspective. He is based on his own heart, hard to be honest, but also to the doctor's professional calm attitude, beyond the harsh environment at that time, not self-pity do not complain not to talk. This style of writing/attitude, both to feel his tenacity of the heart and the pure mind of excellence, but also let a person fully understand his inhuman situation, he does not have to talk, the feelings have been abundant. Such a state, in fact, has reached a fairly high level in literature, and such a person can only be described by diamonds, or with the graceful words of Chairman Mao: a noble man, a pure man, a moral man, a man who is free from the vulgar, a man who benefits the people. Each one matches!

There is a paragraph in the book, written to the author in the Snow and ice, empty belly, wearing a leaky shoe, full foot frostbite, was the prison head and scold, toward the construction of the railway site. He is full of hatred: tonight's "dinner" will not be more than a few beans, later will not be dialed to another strange cruel Tang, feet of this pair of "shoes" can also support how long ... He suddenly realized that these ideas were so trivial and useless to their own existence, so he turned his head and began to look at his situation from a professional perspective and study his own mental state from the distance of his profession. In fact, there are not many people who can do this kind of change. Believe that such a free, is he in the concentration camp in the habit, and this book is the foundation, this is how to lay.

Sometimes, he is wandering in the current environment, in the heart with the beloved wife dialogue, let love full of caps. At that time, the wife is still dead, there is no difference. The ability to use imagination to pull away from reality is a unique skill that helps people survive in extreme environments.

It's really touching. So the theory that he said was unconsciously accepted. Story + Not sentimental + plain English = psychotherapy theory.

In fact, a lot of things happen beyond the scope of our choice, but we can only face. But we can choose to face its attitude, this choice is very important, even to a certain extent, determines the dignity of a person.
