The writer Jia Pingwo once wrote such a sentence:
"May the rest of your life be calm and not flustered, affectionate and not entangled, and peacefully and conscientiously exhaust the rest of your life in the fireworks of the world."
When you think about it, it is.
In the first half of life, use passion and courage to break through, but in the second half, you must spend the rest of your life with wisdom and feelings.
People who have lived to a certain age and have read the vicissitudes of the world should be sober and self-aware.
Do not argue, do not compare, do not seek.
Ordinary days faded by, and I spent the rest of my life in peace.
A life of contentment and happiness is a transcendent life.
No dispute, be open-minded
In the Seventy-Three Chapters of Lao Tzu, it is written: "The way of heaven is to win without controversy."
This means that the fundamental principle of the operation of the laws of nature is not to compete with others, but in the end to be able to win.
In the second half of life, you will eventually understand that quietness is the most far-sighted cultivation.
As we all know, Mr. Yang Dai is not only a famous writer, but also proficient in the languages of many countries, and she has created and translated many works in her lifetime.
However, when his works were published, Mr. Yang Dai never deliberately and actively signed them, and did not allow booksellers to carry out frequent publicity.
The publisher approached her to plan a workshop on her work, and she said:
"I'm a drop of water, not soapy water, and I can't blow bubbles."
She donated all the money she earned from the publication of her books to her alma mater.
Even on his centenarian birthday, he closed the door and focused on creation and spiritual exploration.
Mr. Yang Dai has been indifferent to fame and fortune all her life, never pursuing fame and status, and only quietly reading and writing is her lifelong love and pursuit.
She does not argue about anything, but each work is deeply loved by people, and she is the only woman who is honored by everyone as "Mr."
Mr. Yang Dai said: "I don't argue with anyone, and I don't care about anyone I fight with. ”
Watching the changes in the situation and not arguing, there will be a lot less annoyance and entanglement, and more calm and calm.
Firm in heart, the rest of your life is indisputable.
Everything is arranged, what is yours is yours, and why fight if it is not yours.
It doesn't matter what you lose, what matters is to have a good mood of happiness.
If you don't care, you will see the bright sunshine.
In the second half of life, the eyes are wide, looking at the world; the heart is wide, allowing the world to do things.
Indisputability is the most advanced self-discipline and an attitude of indifference and tolerance.
No, be indifferent
Bi Shumin once said: Life should not be compared, the so-called inferiority is produced in comparison.
Each of us is an independent, special, and valuable individual.
We have the value and reason for our own existence.
I've heard a story like this:
A very famous scholar went to visit the master, and when he talked to the master for a long time, he suddenly felt that he was "short" by a long time.
He asked incomprehensibly, "Before coming to you, I was very confident, but after comparing with you, why do I suddenly feel inferior?" ”
Looking at the endless stream of people who came to see him, the master said:
"Well, I'll answer you when everyone's gone."
In the evening, when all the people were gone, the scholar asked the master, "Now, can you answer my question?" ”
"Let's go outside," said the master:
"You pay attention to those trees, there is a big tree straight into the sky, and next to it there is a small tree, they have been next to my house for many years, and the little tree has never asked the big tree, why do I look inferior in front of you?"
"This tree is small, that tree is big, why have I never heard them whisper like that?"
Scholars say: "Because they don't compare. ”
The master replied, "Well, you don't need to ask me, you already know the answer." ”
The moon season is not more than the charm of Wenzhu, because it knows that you have your elegance, I have my beauty;
The mountain is not as vast as the river, because it understands that you have your breadth, and I have my majesty. ”
Born to be human, everyone is a unique self.
Everyone is the best version of themselves.
Only with constant joy can we be physically and mentally healthy.
Life in the world, happy to be yourself, simple life, is the most advanced way to live.
Comparisons are odious.
Comparison and calculation will only increase the number of troubles, and it will no longer be beneficial.
Writer Marshall Luxemburg said: "Comparing with others is the beginning of a miserable life." ”
In the second half of life, be indifferent and not compare with others in order to live freely.
Know that what you want to surpass is always just yourself.
Don't ask, get a little out of it
I have seen such a saying: "The wise man asks for everything for himself, and the fool asks for everything for others." ”
Once upon a time, a man was in trouble and went to the temple to ask for Guanyin.
Walking into the temple, I found that in front of the statue of Guanyin, there was a person worshipping the bodhisattva.
Strangely, the man looked exactly like Guanyin.
So he asked, "Are you Guanyin?" ”
The man replied, "Exactly." ”
"Why don't you worship yourself?"
Guanyin smiled, "I have also encountered difficulties like you, but I know that it is better to ask for others than to ask for myself." ”
In this life, when people come in the wind and go in the rain, they will inevitably encounter various difficulties and problems.
How to get out of the predicament? Ask for others or ask for yourself?
The only way to do this is to cross yourself.
In the long river of life, only self-crossing can avoid dangerous beaches, and only self-crossing can willow and dark flowers.
Throughout your life, you are your own ferryman.
In the second half of life, I gradually realized that life is not easy for everyone.
Many things, can not be asked.
Many people are too busy to take care of themselves.
If you don't ask for people, you will have no distractions and be at ease.
Don't ask, less desire, more relief, life can suddenly be enlightened.
As Marie Curie said, "The road must be walked on its own, in order to go wider and wider." ”
In the second half of life, if you can not ask for people, you will not seek people, which is the most advanced self-discipline of a person.
In the second half of life, we must learn to let go
I like this sentence:
"Take a touch of the slanting sun, smell a breeze, leisurely and quietly pass, and spend the rest of your life with a shallow smile."
Half of life has passed, no matter whether the front is success or failure, in the second half of life, we must face it calmly.
Life, suitable for oneself, is the best, optimistic and strong, look down on everything, not afraid of the future, dare to take responsibility, smile in the sun against the wind, laugh at the wind and rain in the run.
In the second half of life, I held an umbrella alone and had the courage to cross myself.
Indisputable, open-minded and relaxed;
No more, calm and comfortable;
Don't ask, transcend peace.
On the way to getting old, learn to let go and be kind to yourself.
Shallow time, calm and calm, start the second half of a beautiful life.
May we look down on everything in the days to come, and cross our own ferry and cross people.
