There are two tigers, one kept in a cage and the other surviving in the wilderness.

They all think their environment is poor and envy each other.

By chance, two tigers exchanged identities and both felt very happy.

The tiger who comes to the cage enjoys its success all day long;

The tiger who came to the wilderness found its long lost freedom.

But not long after, both tigers died.

One died of melancholy, and the other died of hunger.

Perception:

You don't need to look up to others, in fact, you are being envied by others.

Happiness is a bowl of plain water, no matter how tempting other people's drinks are, they cannot quench their thirst.

The reason why people suffer is because they pursue things that do not belong to them.

As long as you don't trouble yourself and know how to cherish what you have, it is happiness.

There is a person hiding under the eaves from the rain.

He saw a monk passing by with an umbrella and shouted loudly, "Master, please help me

The monk said, "I'm in the rain, you're under the eaves. And there's no rain under the eaves, you don't need me to cross

Upon hearing this, the person immediately walked out from under the eaves and stood in the rain, saying, "Now I'm also in the rain, shouldn't it be time to cross me

The monk said:

I am in the rain, and you are also in the rain.

I wasn't caught in the rain because I had an umbrella; You were caught in the rain because you didn't have an umbrella.

So you don't need to find me, please find the umbrella!

Perception:

Destiny is like one's own palm print, although curved, it is always in one's own hands.

To have what kind of life, the first thing to do is to take what kind of action.

Asking for help is better than seeking oneself, only those who help themselves can receive help from heaven.

Make the same wood into three wooden barrels.

0A, one for feces, everyone hiding; One for water, for everyone to use; A bottle of wine, held by everyone.

A bucket is the same bucket, with different contents and completely different destinies.

Life is also like this, the focus is on the content.

What kind of thinking, what kind of life there is.

Wang Xiaobo said, "When people live in this world, they just want to understand some principles, meet some interesting things, and if they can achieve their wishes, their life is considered successful
