I got up early and glanced at the calendar on the table, which said that there were 30 days left in 2021.
How, time is such a page turned, how, the past 300 days, how have you lived?
The days are like being pressed on the accelerator button every day, waking up early from opening your eyes, is busy working, for life.
We were busy like a top, and we didn't dare to rest until the last moment, and when we turned our heads, we found that there were 30 days left in this year.
In the morning, I read an article called "Mindfulness of Your Own Thoughts."
It is mentioned that people who are in the midst of mindfulness will always face their own thoughts, and whenever they observe their own thoughts, listen as much as possible to the sounds that appear in your head and feel what you are currently feeling.
Acknowledge your feelings and allow it to exist naturally. Whether pleasant or unpleasant emotions, they come and go as a natural part of life.
Be convinced that everything in life is constantly changing and that nothing is eternal.
We can listen with our ears and observe that sound continues to appear, disperse, and then disappear. We see with our eyes how the seasons change with time, how everything gets older, how the world changes.
If you have time, you can sit down, meditate for a while, listen to the sound of your own breathing, let your brain become blank, feel the bulge of your lower abdomen with each inhalation, exhale all the gas, feel the collapse of your lower abdomen, and be alone with yourself in a quiet space for a while.
Use the body's feelings to perceive the changes around you, such as washing a piece of clothing, not completely clean and finish, but you can feel the texture of the cloth with your hands, put the fragrance of laundry detergent, washing clothes is doing this alone.
Sometimes, it always feels that it is efficient to do different things at the same time, and the reality is that it will consume more energy, from one thing to another and then come back, in fact, it takes 50% more time, and the error rate will increase by 50%.
In fact, our life does not have to be arranged too complicated, if you feel that the materialistic society has no house, no car, and feel that it is impossible to live, you can go to read "Walden Lake".
There was such a person, quietly guarding a lake, watching the microwave of the lake, and accompanying birds and animals.
He will let you know: we actually don't need much in life, three meals a day do not have to be luxurious to fill the stomach, a piece of clothing should not be gorgeous, it can be warm, and a house does not have to be luxurious to be at ease.
All this is not an ideal or a fantasy, but a life that has been practiced.
Sometimes, the simpler we live, the freer we are.
The book "Walden" raises two questions:
1. What are the real needs of life?
2. What exactly can be satisfied in life?
The days you used to grit your teeth and persevere will make you stronger and more relaxed in the future.
Coming to an end of 2021, may we all ride the wind and waves, take the road ahead, and protect the well-being of our families.
