The countryside compares the wind, and when I go back to my hometown and say that the salary is 3,000, a group of uncles and aunts are full of relief
While people pursue satisfaction and recognition, they often fall into the quagmire of comparison. This kind of comparison is especially obvious in rural areas, where people are happy to praise the high and step on the low. When a person returns to his hometown and says that his salary has reached 3,000 yuan, the aunts and uncles will express their appreciation for them with a smile on their faces. However, this kind of comparison is often just to satisfy one's own vanity, but it has a negative impact on society.
In rural societies, it is generally believed that the standard of living is lower at home and higher abroad. Therefore, they like to compare domestic with foreign. If a person can go back to his hometown and claim that his salary has reached 3,000 yuan, then he has become a successful person in the countryside, and everyone will look at him with envy. However, this comparison is only a pompous act and has no practical meaning for real wealth and happiness.
The author is aware of the absurdity and meaninglessness of this comparison, and he would rather be hated than spoken. He doesn't want to engage in this kind of false comparisons and comparisons, but wants people to really focus on their inner satisfaction and growth. He believes that true happiness and success can only be achieved through real hard work and self-improvement.
However, in rural society, the style of comparison has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The painter lost all his savings by gambling during the Chinese New Year, and this incident once again triggered people's thinking about the comparison style. In pursuit of momentary excitement and pleasure, the painter loses all his hard-earned money despite the dissuasion of his family. This kind of comparison psychology and gambling behavior not only causes great harm to individuals and families, but also has a negative impact on the whole society.
The style of comparison in rural society is not only a superficial phenomenon, but also a deep-seated social problem. People need to realize that true happiness and success do not come from comparing themselves to others, but from their own efforts and growth. Only by abandoning the psychology of comparison and focusing on self-improvement and creativity can we achieve true happiness and success. Let us work together to change the atmosphere of comparison in rural society and create a positive and healthy social environment.
