Behind the prosperity is life

No matter how lively life is, one day it will become a cloud of smoke

By Shaw Jr CPublished 2 years ago 4 min read

No matter how lively it is, it will not last for a while: one day.

One day, those who are hot, suddenly dim; one day, those who are flattering, suddenly lose power; one day, those who are complacent in the spring breeze suddenly become despondent; In front of the saddle, he suddenly turned his face and didn't recognize anyone.

——How much lively life is, one day it will become a cloud of smoke.

Prosperity passes away, liveliness is scattered, people are desolate, and it is easy to be looked at with cold eyes. Only then did I know that life should be indifferent to business operations, not flashy, noisy, and even more arrogant. Only after the great ups and downs, the great glory and the great humiliation, can people live clearly and live honestly.

Of course, without great desire, there is no great disturbance. Most of the people who live in fear are those who have strong desires, for fear that one day they will lose their power and lose their favor. Such a person, as beautiful on the surface, as empty in spirit; as violent in appearance, as weak at the bottom of his heart. Unlike indifferent people, who don't need to rely on anything, they are not afraid of losing anything. They have no wind, no rain, no surprises and no disturbances, and they quietly sip a cup of tea at the bottom of the eaves.

Happiness is actually a sense of inner peace.

Be still, fame and fortune are not disturbed, the world is not disturbed, and your heart is not disturbed.

If your heart is a big river, the realm of life is all over the world; if your heart is the earth, the realm of life is the whole universe. Of course, if your heart is only as small as the eye of a needle, the frontier of your life will never exceed the length of a needle.

How broad the heart is, the farther away the frontier of life is.

If you think that there are too many bad people and villains, you have too few people; if you think that there are too many dirty and filthy people, you have not accommodated enough. The world everyone wants is definitely not the whole world, plus what you don't want, the world is complete. And the practice of life, in the end, is to compromise with what you don’t want, and even shake hands to make peace.

Life is almost like such a dinner party, you have to push the cup with the person you like, but also change the cup with the person you hate. After eating a meal, you can receive a heart, and you can also see a face. At the end of the meal, you can still be lively and laugh at this insincere feast, which is your ability to carry the world.

Life is always a little bit worse than we would like it to be.

For example, a target you are looking forward to, when you arrive, you will find that it is nothing more than that. For example, a person you love, when you get it, you find that there are many problems. In fact, the goal is still the goal, the person is still the same person, looking at it from a distant time and space, it is as dazzling and magnificent as the original.

The problem is that people tend to be condescending after they have them. Once you have it, it is often not used to cherish, but to be critical, not to care for, but to criticize. Possession has become the beautiful sharp weapon that cuts the bottom of the heart. People's disappointment lies in not getting it, and the deeper disappointment lies in getting it.

Humans are the most contradictory and complex combination in the world. One section of mountains, one section of water, one section of spring, one section of autumn, one section of good person, one section of bad guy, one section of gentleman, one section of villain, one section of greatness, one section of meanness, one’s self-fulfillment and one’s own destruction.

There are so many enemies in life. More people are fighting with themselves for the rest of their lives.

A bad life is like sleeping, not sleeping when it's time to sleep, and not getting up when it's time to wake up.

If the squandering and waste before going to bed are replaced by greed and cherishing between waking up and not getting up, the value of life will become different.

Unfortunately, it can't be replaced, it can't be changed. It's not that you can't see it, and it's not that you can't see it through. It's that you can see it and see it through, but it's hard to change.

Some people struggle with change all their lives. This kind of struggle is like the discomfort before getting up. After all, the bed is too warm, and the posture of squinting and squinting is too comfortable. I clearly know that the hope of life is in the future, but the future is too far away, and the present is too worthy of obsession.

Many people are mediocre, not because their vision is not long enough, but because their vision is always far away, and people are always nearby.

Does this world have a destiny? The wind is coming, you follow the wind and ask, and when you reach the wind, you will recognize it.

It's not that you can't escape, it's that you don't want to escape. Long in the wind, you've been blown through

One thing, you chase it, keep chasing it, chase it for a year, chase it for ten years, and you will eventually have to recognize it. Because, even if this matter is not possessed, time will be possessed, and you will surrender.

When the wind comes, look at the clouds. Clouds are in the sky, there is wind, but without you.

If you can always turn for life, try to let yourself wander in new landscapes. Then, any strangeness and impermanence of fate cannot help you.
