[Title]: When people reach middle age, please put away your generosity, life is not poetry, it is fireworks in the world
Today, let's talk about the topic that once caused heated discussions in the literary world -- Mo Yan's classic prose "When you reach middle age, please put away your generosity". Doesn't this title sound a bit harsh at first glance? Don't worry, listen to me slowly.
We all know that when we were young, we were all full of pride and willing to do everything we could to help our friends, and that enthusiasm and selflessness were like the sunshine in spring, warm and warm. But time flies, and when people reach middle age, we have to understand that generosity is good, but we must also do what we can. After all, "life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon", this sentence couldn't be more clear, isn't it?
Mo Yan said: "Life is not poetry, it is the world of fireworks." This sentence hits people's hearts and reminds us that in real life, we can't patronize romantic ideals, but also face the trivialities of firewood, rice, oil and salt. Sometimes, your generosity can be a meal, a trip, or even an investment of all your money. But in middle age, these need to be considered rationally, because "the money in the pocket is the warmth of the heart".
Our old-timer Li Bihua also said: "Life is excessive, but too much." Dafang is not a brainless profligacy, but knows how to leave a little room for one's life at the right time. Not to be stingy, but to be responsible for yourself and your family.
I remember one time a friend told me how he generously helped a friend buy a house, only to find himself in financial trouble. I laughed at the time, and I said, "Brother, you are a 'chivalrous man, for the country and the people', but we have to take care of our own little family first." He thought about it too, and since then he has learned to find a balance between generosity and reason.
Therefore, when people reach middle age, our generosity may wish to bring some wisdom and more rationality. It's not about not helping others, it's about helping yourself and others to be sure-footed. After all, "contentment is always happy, and knowing is fixed", these eight words should be engraved in our hearts.
Life is like that bowl of hot noodles, salty and delicious, which is the best taste. Generosity can be had, but it must be moderate and principled. Together, let's embrace every stage of life with a more mature attitude.
I hope this article resonates with you, if you think it makes sense, you might as well forward it to those friends who are experiencing or about to enter middle age, so that they can also have some insights. Life is not easy, but as long as we know how to put away generosity at the right time, life will become better. Finally, don't forget to give me a thumbs up, your recognition is the biggest motivation for my writing!
