When you are a child, happiness is an object, and you will be happy if you have it; when you grow up, happiness is a goal, and you will be happy when you reach it; after maturity, you will find that happiness is originally a state of mind, and you will be happy when you understand it.
○ Who moved my happiness?
Back when I was a child twenty or thirty years ago, a dime and a pack of spicy silk, a penny of sticky tooth candy, we ate a sense of happiness; a popscreet stick, a few small stones, we can have a lot of fun; often a sandbag, a leather band, or a chalk painted grid, can make us intoxicated for a long time; there is a new dress on Children's Day, and a firework in the New Year will be excited for a long time...
Nowadays, with the development of the economy, although the material is greatly enriched, people's happiness has been lost.
All kinds of trendy electronic products, fresh and energetic as soon as they are put in the corner to eat ash; no matter how delicious things, they can't eat a few bites to get tired; no matter how good-looking clothes can't be worn a few times, they press the bottom of the box...
Time passes, we are swallowed up little by little, and when we look back to find those happiness, we find that the heart has been lost for too long...
○ Are everyone else happy?
In this society, whether it is the so-called bottom, middle or upper class, each class has its own pain points.
The people at the bottom cannot even get guarantees for basic problems such as food, clothing, shelter, and transportation; although the middle-level people have no worries about food and clothing, they are also faced with problems such as children's education and living environment; and the upper-class people are afraid to watch the powerful people around them being investigated one by one.
Along with the widening gap between the rich and the poor in society, various contradictions in society have become more and more prominent, and hostility has become heavier and heavier. On the subway, you can often see people arguing or even scolding because of crowding, takeaways can be cut because of a bad review, and various road rage.
We can't help but wonder, what's wrong with this society?
○ What exactly is happiness?
We all think that with wealth and status, we will be happy. However, in the process of pursuing these things, he lost himself, let the heart lose, and lost the ability to be happy. When what we have is long beyond what we need, happiness is hidden from us. Matter brings temporary satisfaction, but this pleasure is so short-lived that competition and competition ensued. Seeing that others have more, satisfaction becomes dissatisfaction, and even brings jealousy and hatred, and happiness is getting farther and farther away...
The body virus is terrible, and the mind virus is also terrible. Some people say that the 21st century is an era of mental illness, and if we do not pay attention to spiritual construction, we will be the first to become victims. Today, with a rich material life, many people are still unhappy, is the problem not in the spirit? Spiritual construction will surely become a key issue in the future society.
We should not only pay attention to health and wellness, enhance physical strength, and resist viruses; at the same time, we should also arm our spirits through reading meditation. An empty heart will do nothing. A confused mind breeds all sorts of mental illnesses. We not only need material wealth, we need spiritual wealth. Reading, inheriting The excellent traditional Chinese culture, establishing the spirit of Chinese, self-cultivation, and cultivating the personality and quality of life of Chinese are urgent things that cannot be delayed in the healthy development of Chinese society.
