The writer Beauvoir has a classic passage of the other party saying: Do you really love life? Yes, I love life. Have you never had pain? There have been a few times, but the pain itself is also life.
Half a life has passed, only to recognize the essence of life, the essence of life is sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, that is, a hundred flavors of life.
No one's life is only sweet and not bitter, walk through life, look back, seven points bitter, three points sweet, life is often not alarming, life is always suffering, but life is after experiencing a cold bone, only to smell the fragrance of plum blossoms.
Half a life has passed, I hope you can look down on everything and go with the flow, because everything in the world has cause and effect, and those roads you have traveled, the setbacks and sufferings you have experienced, are actually coming to cross you. As long as you survive, life will be clear.

Half a life has passed, look down on the gains and losses, don't be proud of what you get, lose, don't care too much.
In fact, the Tao Te Ching says, "Misfortune depends on blessings, and blessings and misfortunes lie down." ”
Life is blessed and bad, gain and loss, success and failure, what you lose, in fact, is not just lost, sometimes, it is precisely because of the loss of some things, and transformed into another thing to come back to you.
In short, we must have a mentality of winning my luck and losing my life, and let nature take its course, and everything is the best arrangement.
In the circle of friends, I saw a middle-aged big brother said: After half a life, I slowly understood to remove the armor that did not belong to me, and carried it for so long, in fact, I was a tool in disguise, I fought with others for so long, and my competitive spirit has not been able to put it down, which is also the reason why I have not been happy so much.
Nowadays, after taking off his mask, he is much more relaxed, no longer thinks about those fame and fortune status, no longer competes with whom, and quietly lives his life, abandons some circles, sorts out his circle of friends, reduces social interaction, but has a lot more time to come out and do what he wants.
Half a life has passed, know how to choose, and those who lose will come back. Therefore, you don't have to worry too much about losing, it doesn't matter if you don't get it, look down on it, and life can live freely.

"The Shawshank Redemption" says: There is no incurable pain, no unending sinking, and all that is lost will return in another way.
Half a life has passed, and I have learned what life is. Pain is life, joy and sorrow are life, life and death are life, joy and sorrow are life, ups and downs are life.
In fact, after walking through the first half of life, from naivety to maturity, although I have endured a lot of pain, I have not experienced a frustrated life, which is not enough to talk about life.
After all, only those who have rolled through the mire can experience true strength.
Along the way in life, through one experience after another, a variety of feelings, and understanding again and again, we can see through it now, look down on it, no longer fight, no longer compare, no longer do some senseless things, know how to cherish their lives more, and cherish the people around them who are good to themselves.
After all, not everyone will be sincere with you, and many people are interested in their actions, and can give you a sticker, but they can't give you charcoal in the snow.
Therefore, after recognizing life, learn to look down on it, people come and go, just go with the flow.

Half a life has passed, look down on right and wrong, no longer angry, the second half of life, fight is health.
Looking back at the first half of my life, I always felt that I was very young, I didn't care so much about managing my body at all, I always thought that staying up late was fine, anyway, I was still young, but I went to middle age, and I found that I couldn't stay up late, and there were many problems in my body.
It turns out that the money exchanged for health is not long-lasting, but will lose more.
In the past, I always loved to be angry, always liked to be true with others, for a little thing I wanted to be unable to lose, I must win, I valued winning and losing too much, and I cared too much about right and wrong, so I have always let myself live in pain, and even always have negative emotions.
Half a life has passed, I have seen some separations around me, some people even say that it is gone, life is impermanent, health and peace is the most important.
We have walked through the half of life, and there is still a second half of the journey that we need to live well, don't get angry anymore, anger is just used to torture ourselves.
Life looks down on everything, not angry, be a faint person, live in the moment.

There is a saying in "One Hundred Years of Solitude", "We tend to walk in the eternal journey of life, running in the ups and downs, nirvana in setbacks, sorrows all over the body, and pain floating everywhere." We are tired, but we can't stop; we are bitter, but we can't avoid it. ”
Half a life has passed, learn to go with the flow, the one who should come will always come, and the one who should go cannot stay. The good and the bad are actually life. No matter what we experience, we can't complain, please walk forward with your head held high.
Wind and rain life, cultivate a calm, go with nature, and be at peace with the encounter.
Life is not worth it, it is enough.
