enjoy while one can
"Today you have wine, today you are drunk" is a well-known sentence, which comes from Luo Yin's "self dispatch" in Tang Dynasty: "when you get it, you sing loudly, when you lose it, you will stop. When you worry about it, you will hate it. Today we have wine, today we are drunk, tomorrow we are worried, tomorrow we are worried. " This expresses the author's optimistic and open mind.
This sentence often refers to people muddling along, only thinking about the present and not thinking about tomorrow's sorrow. It reveals the negative emotion of being happy in time in life. But in the late Tang Dynasty, when the politics were corrupt, how could it not be a kind of frankness? And the poet ordered his poem to say "self dispatch", which means self relief?
"It's a day to be bitter and a day to be happy. Why not be happy?" Luo Yin's official career is bumpy, and he won ten scholarships, but not the first one. This poem was written by Luo Yin with emotion and self mockery, but it is also a pity that later generations compare him to muddle along.

Appreciation of famous sentences
"Today there is wine, today drunk", the poet here tells the world: when frustration can not be resolved, you can be drunk to relieve. As a matter of fact, it has existed since ancient times to use wine to relieve worries. Cao Cao said, "only Du Kang can relieve worries.". But this kind of words from the poet's mouth will have a different taste. If you really have wine to relieve worries all the time, it's OK to be drunk all your life. However, the poet is a poor scholar. He can't drink every day. The repetition of the two "today" shows that the so-called relief is only temporary relief. It seems that in the face of the world's endless troubles and frustrations, the poet has no way to solve them.
