Life, the most troubled us, nothing more than gain and loss of these two words. These two words are also the root of all disputes, troubles and confusion. As the saying goes, "between gain and loss, there must be cause and effect." As long as we understand the reasons for gain and loss, we will naturally know the way to choose and lose, and then, all problems are solved.

In spring, the sun returns and the spring breeze caresses my face. The tree produces new leaves, which for the tree is what is called gain; Later, the autumn wind is clear, and the louvres wither, which is the so-called loss of trees. If there is no old leaves to die, there will be no new leaves in spring. After all, one eye does not make two leaves. With the initiation of new leaves, there is a new leaf old, old leaves fall. This is the way of heaven, the natural cycle, not human can violate. So, gains and losses are just points on a cycle, alternating endlessly. In the words of Buddhism, you win something, you lose something. Success in life depends on what position you put yourself in. If you stand at the point of loss, you will find that there are gains before and after. If you stand on the point of gain, you will find that there are losses before and after.

Leaves and trees together, is to have, is also fate. Similarly, leaves and trees from the points, is lost, is green points. And waiting for the fallen leaves is the embrace of thick soil, is another fate born. In this way, the edge is born, the edge is born, and never ends. You get, is fate born; You have lost, is fate. Man has two hands, but he cannot grasp both sides of a thing. You choose food, that bodybuilding figure will leave you; You choose the career, can not more to experience the warmth of home... In this way, no one can get rid of the fate of winning and losing!

The universe gives birth to all things, and all things are naturally equal. There is no weight, no rank. We are in the same ecological cycle, just in different positions! What we can do is to climb mountains, wade in rivers and watch the sunrise when the weather is fine. When the sky is overcast, cook tea, listen to the piano, talk sangma. Do not care about the cold autumn, winter night long. Do not rejoice with things, do not grieve with yourself.

When men come, they come empty-handed. When a man goes, he goes empty-handed. People have, only in the moment, how will there be eternal. After holding hands, must be to let go. After gathering, it must be parting. See clearly, let nature take its course, calm calm. Can't see through, blame heaven and earth.

The pursuit of life, should be more happiness, not more possession. When facing the mountain to see the mountain, when facing the water to see the water, as long as there is a good mood, everything is beautiful scenery. Do your best, do not pursue the wrong things. Heart, fate, will let go will have a happy life. (www.sanwen.net)

Life will have countless choices, not to choose unrealistic, also do not force their own. There won't be too much frustration, there won't be too much complaining. You don't end up owning anything, but you can make the process work to your liking. We can pursue beautiful moments, must not pursue beautiful eternity. In this changing world all the time, let us have more leisure, to enjoy the silence in the world of mortals, feel the wonderful flowers and leaves and green.

If destined to end empty-handed, even behind the cup of loess, finally do not belong to us. If this is what happens to all of us. So, we why sad, why crazy around, why not to persistent! It is a kind of wisdom and realm to know the choice and advance. It does not make us invincible, but it can make us sensible, can make us easy and elegant. It can't make our troubles go away, but it can make us let go of them.

What you have today will change tomorrow and be lost. Although the truth is such, but do not have to deliberately use the truth to verify life. We live on earth, and the fate of people together in the same story. Reciprocate, magnanimous tolerance, not for anything else, only to leave a clear shadow in this world when you leave. Life is bound to have a pursuit, got, still gratifying; If not, don't be sad.

Before he died, Alexander said, "When I die, put my hands out of the coffin. Let the world see that even a great man like me dies with nothing." What does Alexander mean by this, that he has more because he has nothing? Or that no matter how much you own, you end up empty-handed?
