The secret field of my heart

story

There is a saying in the Cai Kan Tan: "If one is too idle, other thoughts will creep into one's life; if one is too busy, one's true nature will not emerge." The idea is that if life is too idle, other thoughts will creep in; if one is too busy, one will not reveal one's true nature. So how to achieve a perfect state? It is neither to be too idle and fall into evil thoughts, nor to be too busy and have the true self covered up.

  If you are too idle in life, like yourself this time, it seems that you have nothing to do, except for classes and meals, you don't want to step out of the dormitory, and you feel just right to be trapped in the small familiar world in front of you, so you finally get the habit of opening a book and then closing it, and you also get the famous saying of "do it tomorrow" to procrastinate your life. By the way, I see many people on the Internet who are as idle as I am doing something not so idle, such as acting as a "keyboard warrior" to fight with people as if they don't want to be too idle to make their heads completely strike because they have been pampered for too long; and for example, coming up with some "shocking" For example, they come up with some "shocking" ways to shoot some short videos that they are used to, as if they are telling others that they are very idle but also very "outstanding" living; there are also some people who act as viewers to see other people's lives, that is, the so-called "gourmets", this kind of people are probably the idle people of the idle people Strike, neither thinking nor hands will be able to take in the world, it can be said that "the show does not go out, know everything under the sun, and occasionally encounter with their own views do not fit or willing to take out their own golden fingers to express their unique views.

  If life is too busy, it is the exact opposite of the above-mentioned idle people, such as adults who are still knocking on the keyboard on the way to work or home to change the program and the tireless students on the way to school or home, whenever you see them, you will inevitably praise their diligence and hard work, but on second thought, this diligence and hard work for some people is indeed from a strong belief in self-promotion in a good ideal, but there are also some large Probably not from their own, or forced by life and top leadership "expectations" or for parents and teachers that they are not looking forward to the future that is forced to be busy. These people who are forced to be busy naturally do not have the same fulfilling and satisfying pleasure as those who voluntarily create it, or worse, they lose the pleasure of building a wall of affairs to keep their true selves in the dark, just like the birth of the term "social animal", which is mostly used for self-deprecation by office workers, but we can see that in the eyes of many office workers people are no longer human They have become the cattle of society, being whipped by the relentless whip of society and life.

  How to find the real meaningful happiness between being too idle and too busy, as mentioned at the beginning, is to combine work and rest, to enrich ourselves with busyness and to enjoy ourselves with leisure. For individuals in society, we should expect society to leave us enough time, but the flow of society is difficult to stop because of our own efforts, how not to be hidden by the flow? It is better to separate the real "I" from the "I" facing the society, and Tao Qian's "hut in the human realm, and no car and horse noise" is roughly like this. In their own hearts to make a garden, with the outside world to plow it, so that it is simple outside also has the light of wisdom and the warmth of the world, in the heart of the garden rest and drink tea, look at the lingering play butterfly, look at the free and delicate warbler, the social torrent can not wash away is always hidden the deepest heart.
