Mr. Yang Dai has a passage: "Heaven will not let all happiness be concentrated on someone, getting love does not necessarily have money; having money does not necessarily get happiness; getting happiness does not necessarily have health; having health may not necessarily achieve everything." "[Breeze]

[Breeze] In childhood, children are premised on happiness, and the wishes of children are always fulfilled by parents who do their best to satisfy them. When a child cries, he will immediately get good food and fun, coaxing and hugging to get caress.

When the child is afraid, he will be comforted and protected by his parents in time; when the child is sick, he will receive timely care and treatment.

[Breeze] The child knows from a very young age that he has nothing to satisfy or what not to get, as long as the crying parents will immediately come to comfort and act according to the child's wishes.

[Breeze] When he was a child, he did not know self-restraint, and his young mind only wanted to meet his needs immediately.

[Breeze] Actually we are all people who have come over, all the adults, used to be children. [Breeze]

When [Breeze] grows up, he understands that some satisfaction should be postponed, some desires should be restrained, and what should be done is suitable for his current situation and what is not suitable.

[Breeze] You and I may understand these truths, but most people will still be confused when it comes to the end, such as in the face of fame and fortune, feelings, hobbies, etc., and the lack of consideration in the choice of giving up will deviate from the center of gravity. [Breeze]

There is a story in "Nebula Night Talk" that there is a traveler, passing through a steep cliff, accidentally fell into the valley, in a hurry to grasp the branches on the rock wall, can not go up and down, praying for the Buddha to rescue, the Buddha really appeared, and reached over to pick him up, said: "Now you put down the hand that grasped the branch!" However, the traveler did not let go, he said: "As soon as you put your hand down, you are bound to fall into the abyss and fall to your death." ”

[Breeze] The travelers grasped the branches even more at this time. The Buddha laughed and said that such an obsessive person could not be saved by anyone.

[Breeze] Think about it, people who don't know how to give up often don't get anything. [Breeze]

[Breeze] Life is on the road of gain and sacrifice, do not have to worry about those irreparable losses, give up what should be given up, [Breeze] maintain a contented and happy mentality is the best way to refine the mind and purify the soul. [Breeze]
