Yesterday, because she wrote a diary of the Sichuan character pattern on her friend's forehead, she was seen by a friend, and today she chatted with me for a while.
(See: "Chopping Sword in the Sichuan Character Pattern")
She said that in the process of getting along with everyone, she found that her separation was still very large, so sometimes she was unaccustomed to it and sulked, which caused the second appearance of the Sichuan character pattern.
I said, who isn't?
I can tolerate what I like, whatever the other party does, and I don't want to see what I don't like, no matter how good they are to me.
It's all like that in human nature, but it's good for us to have an awareness and know that we need to adjust.
I told her about the miscellaneous book I read about faces, and it said that the "chopping sword" in the middle of the Sichuan character pattern can be resolved, because people are born from each other. It's just that you have to accumulate a lot of yin merit to change, which is not easy.
I teased my friend and said: Fortunately, you have always insisted on learning and using the Tao Te Ching, insisting on serving everyone, "Jiande if stealing" is not easy for others, and it should not be too difficult for you......
Unexpectedly, a friend said that she occasionally did a little thing, and was praised by several elders around her, called and wrote a diary......
This praise doesn't matter, she is very ashamed of her praise, and she is also praised by others for their inexplicable trust in her, and they come to her when there is something, because they think she has merit and experience.
But my friend said that it was not really her credit, but the perseverance of the teachers and volunteers around her that allowed several people to slowly get out of the predicament.
Therefore, others praised her like this, and she really couldn't stand this inexplicable credit.
I listened to it funny, and said to her: Then you should also go and boast about it! Praise them back, just to clarify, it is not our credit, we can't ask for it!
My friend bowed his head and said: No, I was praised to the point of cold sweat.
My friend said that in fact, there are some things, it seems that she is holding others out of the predicament, but without the other party, she herself has no motivation to continue reading the Bible and exercising. Therefore, she felt that she was not holding hands with others, but that the other party was incarnated as a weak person and held hands with her in turn.
Therefore, she remembered the words that her teacher used to say:
"Be grateful to others for giving us the opportunity to serve, because it is always us who grows. ”
That's how she feels now.
But as for what others praise her, she will clarify what she can, and if she can't, she will make sure that she is "pampered" in her heart - after all, what others say is what others think, as long as her heart is not moving, she will not be complacent, and there will be no omission in cultivation.
I think my friend taught me another lesson, and she taught me really well.
We have been volunteering all these years, in fact, it is not that we are helping others, but that we are grateful to others for giving us the opportunity to serve, so that we can get exercise and growth.
Therefore, the people who really participate in the service are all "frozen age", and for more than ten years, they have been in better and better condition, and they have not aged at all.
It's just that when others praise us, what kind of mentality to use to face it, this is the test.
The ancients said: "The heart of a gentleman is blue and white, and no one should know it." The talent of a gentleman, the jade Yun pearl is hidden, and it cannot be easily known. ”
It is the ability to be open-minded, and it is wisdom to be able to hide in the body.
Being able to stay sober, ashamed, and diligent in praise is the greatest exercise for the heart.
I am grateful to my friends for contributing two days of good themes, and I am grateful to the Tao Te Ching for letting us hold hands and accompany each other.
