Text/Thousand Flowers and Thousand Trees
The complicated world is full of paper drunkenness and gold fans, and materialism is rampant. Those dazzling things can easily disturb the mind. I would like to ask you, have you also unconsciously lost your true self? You may ask, what is true? In this real society where many people live in masks, how many people can still remain real?
For me, the simplest definition of truth is to know yourself correctly. Many people think that they are themselves, so they know themselves best. In fact, the person who knows himself the most is himself. You see, how many people overestimate themselves when things are going well, and underestimate themselves when they are unhappy. Many times, it is always contradictory.
For countless people, it is a difficult thing to correctly understand yourself. Because we are always unwilling to admit some facts, for example, in the face of difficulties, admit our weakness. And when the idea is seen through by others, we also vigorously deny it. And the more this happens, it is difficult for us to calm ourselves. Over time, he also put on a mask.
To correctly understand yourself, I think the most important thing is to recognize your current state, recognize your emotions, and find your strengths and weaknesses. Don't deliberately compare yourself to others. Because, there are people outside of people. Don't deny yourself, either. Although the starting point of life is different, through their unremitting efforts, they can still get everything they want. Of course, it is premised on contentment.
We may be living a bad life, and we may continue to fight for a while. But have you ever found that when our expectations of life are not so high, the distance between ideals and reality becomes very close. When we laugh and face difficulties, many solutions will keep popping up. When we become real, the goodness of the heart will be like a magnet, attracting the good. And truth is like an armor that protects us from the false invasion of the outside world.
Everyone has a direction to live. Whether it is to be a towering tree, or to be a nameless grass, whether it is to become a mountain, or to be a stone, this is a kind of existence. There is a reason for existence. To exist, to be real. Only by being true can we discover our own value and make our existence meaningful in our hearts.
Enlightenment is the beginning of a correct understanding of oneself. You can listen to others judge what kind of person you are, but don't use other people's evaluations as a criterion for judging yourself. We can refer to the evaluation of others to improve ourselves, but we must not live in the eyes of others. Because, life, is to live for oneself, not for others. Living in the eyes of others will only exhaust yourself faster.
To realize yourself, you must take off the mask you wear on your face. Looking in the mirror and looking at your own smile is not from the heart. Look at your parents and see if what you say is a lie. The tone of looking at your lover and child, watching yourself imagine the future, is not very firm. To your friends, to see if the way you express yourself is a kind of politeness.
Realize yourself, but also be kind to yourself. When you are lost, don't hold back and not cry because you feel ugly. Tears are a kind of venting, and there is no sin in crying. Let the tears release the depression, let the tears clean the eyes, in order to see themselves, the present, clearly. When you are tired, don't be reluctant to eat supplements. The body is the capital of the revolution. Only by keeping your body can you better fight.
In a lifetime, from learning to speak and crawling in infancy, to standing on both feet when he grows up, heading the heavens and the earth, and then to the old age and physical decline, walking with a cane, from simple immaturity to seeing through human feelings, it is a process of cultivating the mind. Cultivate a calm, cultivate a contentment, cultivate a wisdom, repair a cognition, repair a truth.
The rest of my life is long, and the future is beautiful. Know yourself correctly, be your true self, and give yourself the strength to believe. Believe in yourself and become a good version of yourself. Believe in yourself, but also can bring out the good taste of life. Be authentic and lively, slowly get rid of the trivial things in life, try to be as simple as possible, try to be happy!
