Love left and right


When the ancient city of Troy was excavated, a British archaeologist discovered a bronze mirror. The bronze mirror was engraved with an incomprehensible inscription. He devoted his life to many ancient Greek experts and could not decipher the mystery. .

After the death of the archaeologist, the mirror was quietly lying in the British Museum. Until 20 years later, one day, a handsome young man came to the museum. Accompanied by the curator of the museum, he went straight to the ancient mirror. In front of the glass cabinet with the assistance of the staff, carefully take out the bronze mirror and turn it over on a piece of red velvet. The inscription behind the ancient mirror reflects the cold golden luster on a red background. The young man took an ordinary mirror from his rucksack and turned his head according to the inscription on the bronze mirror. He smiled and said to the museum curator: "Look, the inscription behind this ancient mirror is not difficult to solve, just Ordinary ancient Greek is engraved according to the mirrored text pattern.” The curator of the museum is also an ancient Greek expert. He holds the reading glasses on the nose frame and puts his face together to carefully analyze the mirrored text. Slowly, read the word: "To my dearest person: When all people think you are to the left, I know that you have been to the right."

The young man looked up and sighed and said: "It's a pity! My grandfather spent all his life and couldn't crack the mystery in the text, but he didn't know that he was wasting it. The result turned out to be so simple!" Museum curator silenced For a while, faintly said: "Maybe you think he has been to the left, in fact, he has been to the right." The young man looked a move, fell into meditation.

We have no way of knowing whether this text was written by the beautiful Helen to her hard-working lover, but the spirit of infinite support for the lover contained in the inscription is still irritating today. In the customs of many countries in ancient times, there was the concept of left-right and right-handedness. It seems that the prehistoric city of Troy is also the same. We can see from the inscriptions of the ancient mirror that the author's lover may be regarded as constantly degraded by others, and will soon fall into all sides, and under this kind, the sweet person uses this passage to show the lover. The incomparable trust, his inevitability will reach a correct one. How valuable this trust is to a person who is trapped!

The archaeologist failed to uncover the mystery. It is not necessarily that he did something wrong. It only shows that he does not have enough luck to discover the truth. The outsider may think that he is going to the left, but in fact he has been to the right. As the heir to the archaeologist, his grandson needs to understand this and respect his grandfather's relentlessness to comfort his lofty spirit of perseverance and death. This may be the meaning of the museum director's discourse.

When everyone thinks that the person you love is pointing to the left, you may wish to shout at him: "I know you have been to the right!" This may be the best expression of love.
