The complexity of human nature

Speaking of the complexity of human nature, we have to mention two people in Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude.

One is Aureliano the second, and the other is his mistress: Petra. Cortes.

Since the outsider Petra Cortes, Aureliano the Second has been involved with her.

To live with his lover, he moved the family feast and removed the cowshed and stables.

Finally, on the pretext that his mistress' house was cooler, Aureliano II moved to the small office where he ran his business, and together they enjoyed and spent a lot of money.

His wife, Fernanda, became a "widow" with a husband.

In today's parlance, Aureliano II was a G-husband, Petra Cortes was a shameless, shameless, shameless husband. Cortes was a shameless "mistress" who took advantage of other people's husbands.

However, when it rained for four years, eleven months, and two days, the family showed signs of decay and even had problems feeding themselves, Aureliano II was busy making and selling lottery tickets and saving money to send her daughter Amanda Ursula to school in Brussels. He was a good husband and father who was responsible for his daughter, Amanda Ursula, going to school in Brussels.

After the death of Aureliano II, every Wednesday a basket of food was brought to Fernanda's house, enough to feed the family for a week.

No one knew that this food was sent by Petra Cortes. Cortes had it delivered.

At first, she wanted to humiliate those who had humiliated her through persistent acts of kindness.

However, the resentment disappeared much faster than expected.

She continued to send food out of pride, but eventually out of pity.

Petra demonstrates her compassion by starving herself so that Fernanda can eat.

And it is so noble for a person to have compassion.

How complex and changeable is human nature?

Maugham once said: "I did not know then how contradictory and complex human nature is, how much artifice is contained in sincerity, how much vileness in nobility, and how much goodness in evil. Now I realize this, that meanness and greatness, viciousness and kindness, hatred and love, can coexist in the same heart."

Knowing the complexity of human nature, we need to have these 3 kinds of psychology.

① Don't judge a person easily

A good attitude to the waiter may be that he is deliberately showing it to others.

A solid truth is: that some people can do anything to get close to you.

A person who is friendly to a small animal may not be kind to his parents.

②If someone sets you up, consider the person who has a stake in the matter first.

In "The Count of Monte Cristo", Dondes was framed and imprisoned on the day he was about to marry and be promoted.

The people who set him up were Danglar, the accountant of the Pharaoh, who wanted to be the captain of the ship; Fernand, who adored his girlfriend, Mercer Tess, who wanted to marry Mercer Tess; and Wilford, the acting prosecutor, who wanted to get rid of him.

③ Don't give your heart to a person easily

Sometimes, the person who says something has no intention to hear it.

Don't give your heart and soul to a person so easily.

Some of your "handles" or important information fell to others, you do not know when will be used.

There are few people in the world who want you to have a good life.

You can't harm others, but you can't do anything to prevent others.

Because of human nature, you can't see straight.
