"Why do I live? Why do I wish for anything, or do anything? Is there anything in my life that will not be broken by my death?" Like Leo Tolstoy, the famous Russian writer, many people ask these difficult questions. Tolstoy spent his whole life trying to answer these difficult questions.
As a young man, he thought people could be perfect if they tried hard enough. So he worked very hard to be the best in everything. He thought that he would find the meaning and the truth in success.
In the 1850s, Tolstoy wrote his first stories. He wrote about his life when he was a soldier. He also told stories about his childhood. These works were published (出版) and Tolstoy became a well- known writer. He got the respect he always wanted. Many rich and smart men met and talked with Tolstoy. But soon Tolstoy recognised that these men were not perfect and they could not answer his questions.
So in the 1860s, Tolstoy tried a different way to find the meaning of life. He opened a school for the children of his serfs — the people who worked on his land. These workers were very poor. He wanted to help them because he thought they were more honest than the rich people he knew.
Tolstoy learnt a lot from his workers. He understood how they worked hard to support their families. He began to believe that marriage and family would give his life meaning. So in1862, Leo Tolstoy married a young woman named Sonya Behrs.
The next 15 years were the best years of Tolstoy's life. It was during this time that he wrote his most famous books— War and Peace and Anna Karenina. In these books, Tolstoy believed humans should live a simple life and take care of their families. Tolstoy thought this would satisfy him and bring him happiness.
