The nobility that goes deep into the bones is very personal

01

Hemingway wrote in "True Nobility": "Superior to others, not noble, the real nobility should be superior to the past self." ”

Many people think that making some abnormal moves, making others pay attention to themselves, or being above others, is noble.

In fact, nobility is the upbringing and temperament in a person's bones, and it is the courage and wisdom to constantly surpass oneself. He's a little unsociable and a little offbeat, but when you think about it, it's common sense.

Usually, noble people, such as plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, personality is not ordinary.

02

Noble people, as fragrant as orchids.

There was a man named Mao Bocheng, who was born in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, was good at reading, and served as a western marcher to join the army. At that time, he was also a high-ranking official.

He has a mantra: "I'd rather fall like an orchid and be crushed like a jade than blossom and flourish like mugwort." ”

We often say that it is better to be crushed by jade than to be completed. That is to say, if a person's material is different, then his final outcome is different. The jade is broken, or jade, and the tiles are humble no matter how they change.

Orchids, born in the valley, naturally bloom, naturally withered, whether anyone comes to appreciate it, it will not affect its life. Perhaps, the orchid did not want anyone to disturb it.

If you are a person who loves orchids, then you will find that if you bring orchids from the mountains to your home and raise them in the most expensive pots, the orchids will not live long.

When you get close to an orchid, you can smell the flowers from afar. The quiet aroma, refreshing the heart, brings a good mood to others.

Zheng Banqiao said: "The ancient Youzhen is this flower, and I don't seek to smell only smoke." ”

Get rid of the impetuousness of society, hide in the mountains, just like a reclusive wise man, although he does not show off himself, but the wine is not afraid of the deep alley, has long been famous.

03

Noble people, as straight as green bamboo.

During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a man named Zhuge Liang who served as the Grand Sima in the State of Wu. Later, the Western Jin Dynasty replaced the Three Kingdoms and set its capital in Luoyang.

Zhuge Liang has since gone into hiding and will not come back. The most incredible thing is that at any time, he sat with his back to Luoshui, expressing his loyalty to the state of Wu and not worshipping the emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of Jin and Zhuge Liang had been friends since childhood, admired his talent, and ordered him to be an official. Zhuge Liang resolutely refused to go to his post.

Later, Emperor Wu of Jin took the initiative to find Zhuge Liang and talked on his knees: "Do you remember our friendship when we were young?" ”

Zhuge Liang burst into tears, believing that he was ashamed of Wu Guo and expressing his feelings.

The ancients said, "A loyal subject does not do two masters, and a virgin does not have a second husband." ”

Some people, just a tendon, no matter what happens, will not change the original intention. His character, like bamboo, is straight up, and if it is bent, it is broken.

And those who are weak will always fear the powerful, and will change their original intentions at will because of their greed for money, and in front of the strong, they will only promise.

The high wind and bright knot of the bamboo just set off a person's untamed character. Since ancient times, many literati have studied and practiced among the bamboo forests, planted bamboo in front of the windowsills, and reminded themselves at any time to take this as an example.

"Thousands of grinding blows are still strong, and Ren'er's east, west, south, and north winds are strong." Stand well, no matter how much wind and rain, do not lie down, such a spirit, naturally noble.

Noble people, as proud as Qiu Ju.

Huan Wen, a famous minister in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, although his official position was not small, his temper was not small.

Once, lying in bed, he said to himself, "I am so obscure that I will be looked down upon." ”

Therefore, he suddenly jumped up and said to himself, "Since you can't live for a hundred lifetimes, it will be good to leave a stink for ten thousand years." ”

Later, it was believed that he and the chancellor Yin Hao had a good fight, and often compared them to each other.

Huan Wen said to Yin Hao, "How about you compare yourself with me?" ”

Yin Hao said: "I have been dealing with myself for a long time, and I am what I am. ”

The two masters of that year had personalities and were not inferior.

At any time, be yourself and be ashamed. Even if there is gossip outside, don't care, don't deviate from your own direction. This spirit is like a chrysanthemum blooming in the face of cold frost.

When everything began to wither, the autumn chrysanthemum began to flourish, and the opposite was done.

The poet Yuan Shu said: "It is not that the flowers prefer chrysanthemums, but this flower is even more flowerless." ”

In the cold and grinning autumn, the autumn chrysanthemums have bloomed, which means that winter has come, and this year, it is difficult to see the vibrant scene in the yard.

Arrogance is not stubbornness, but persistence in the difficulties of life, gritting their teeth and moving forward; it is after life reaches the peak, silently going downhill.

Surpassing oneself again and again is a hundred times stronger than repeatedly defeating others. Cold is an external difficulty, and the most feared thing is the cold of the heart. If you can use a stable mind to face the cold wind and cold rain, is it different?

05

Noble people, as joyful as Lamei.

Lin Yutang wrote in the article: "Plum blossoms are naturally related to white snow, and it and daffodils become part of our New Year's enjoyment. ”

In my hometown, people are used to calling plums "spring plum blossoms". In other words, the plum blossoms bloom and spring is not far away.

Noble people, like plum blossoms, are accustomed to being alone, but they are very kind, and their hearts are always warm as jade.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a minister under the Duke of Jin Ling named Zhao Dun. He went hunting with a group of men, and on the way he met a dying man. Originally, as a high-ranking minister, it was possible to dismiss ordinary people. But Zhao Dun moved his compassion and ordered his entourage to bring out a bowl of rice to the man.

The man was so grateful that he left half a bowl of rice behind, saying that he would take it home for his old mother to eat.

Zhao Dun's mood was very uncomfortable, so he ordered his entourage to give another bowl of rice to the man, and added some meat.

The kinder a person is, the more noble he is. When good deeds are done more, people will have the appearance of compassion and be respected.

06

The truly noble man is a humble gentleman and a man of sharp edge. They are a positive force in society.

The nobility of a person lies not in the fact that he has read a few books, nor how much money he has in his hand, nor what position he has achieved, but whether his character has been tempered, whether his heart and mind can nurture others, and whether he has a positive spirit.

Good-looking skin bags are the same, and noble character is one of the best.

From now on, every day to improve a little bit, beyond yesterday's self.
