Someone once asked, "How can we effectively avoid the trivial things in life that are not satisfactory?"
A wise man replied:
"When I was on the first floor, as far as the eye could see, it was full of clutter and unbearability;
When I climbed to the top of the 30th floor, I was greeted by a magnificent cityscape and a distant horizon.
This shows that the broadening of horizons and the improvement of the pattern can naturally keep those trivial troubles away from our world. ”
Indeed, everything in the world is complicated.
If we are careful about everything and pay attention to everything, we will only fall into it and consume our energy needlessly.
Therefore, learning to improve one's self-realm and expand the capacity of the mind is the key to purifying the atmosphere of life and being able to enjoy the thousands of beautiful things in the world.
Don't care, break things away
There is an old proverb: "The river carries the sand, only the precipitation can be clear, and the journey of life is troubled, and there is no way to avoid disaster if you make unwise choices." ”
The river water does not reject sediment, after precipitation, self-clarification;
People deal with the world, are not informal, and know how to let go, so that they can stay away from troubles.
The world is chaotic, perfection is hard to find, and everything cannot be perfect, only by broadening the mind, regarding adversity as normal, and seeing frustration as the path of cultivation, can we be open-minded.
Have a sudden bearing, worry and worry, and the road ahead is self-evident.
Zhang Zhidong, a famous minister in the late Qing Dynasty, was slightly short in stature, and when he was the governor of Huguang, he was once ridiculed by a painter with a watercolor painting of "Three Dwarf Strange Talks", which contained Zhang Zhidong and two other officials with similar figures, intended to mock.
The paintings were exhibited, attracting laughter and discussion.
One of them was about to hear it, and he wanted to punish the painter angrily, but Zhang Zhidong smiled indifferently and said: "There is no need to mind." ”
He even sent people to buy this painting when no one cared about it, and when the world heard this, they were ashamed, and no one dared to talk about it.
This incident shows that he does not care about the small sections.
"The Analects of the Eight Hundreds" has a cloud: "The past is not to blame, the success is not spoken, and the established is not persuaded." ”
Teach my generation that there is no need to dwell on the past, that there is no need to dissuade the established things in vain, and that the mistakes of the past should not be investigated.
Single-mindedly facing the sun, looking ahead, not trapped in the past, not obsessed with the present, not annoyed by trivialities, the journey of life is naturally spacious and smooth.
I don't care, rotten people are far away
In the Analects of the Analects, there is a saying: "If you behave properly, you can get others to follow you without orders, but if you behave badly, no one will obey even if you give instructions." ”
This quote profoundly reveals the importance of personal conduct:
When a person cultivates moral character and is positive, it is often needless to say more, and his actions become an example of his own;
On the other hand, if a person is biased and does not reflect on himself, it will be difficult for him to be touched by the teachings of external forces.
The story of Lu Mengzheng, the famous minister of the Song Dynasty, is a vivid embodiment of this principle.
From a humble background, he jumped to the Jinshi through diligent study and entered the court.
When he first entered the officialdom, he was contemptuous in the face of the contemptuous words of some colleagues who were from prominent backgrounds and regarded themselves very highly - "A beggar from a broken kiln dares to discuss state affairs in vain?" Lu Mengzheng showed extraordinary bearing.
Upon learning of this, his colleagues were indignant and wanted to stand up for him, seeking out the contemptuous man to reprimand him.
Lu Mengzheng responded lightly:
"Once I know who this person is, I am afraid that I will not be happy if I teach others a lesson. Still don't know why. ”
This move not only showed his open-mindedness, but also made Song Taizong praise: "I can't do enough to be right." ”
This magnanimity not only won the admiration of the emperor, but also made many upright people in the court and the central government form a deep friendship with him and create brilliant political achievements.
Wisdom in life lies in knowing how to deal with those who are stubborn or deliberately hurting.
The most clever strategy is to ignore it and not get entangled with it.
As the old saying goes: "In addition to bowing your head and doing things, you need to know people with your eyes, choose sincere and kind people to accompany you, and walk with gentlemen." ”
In the long journey of life, time is precious, avoid fighting with people with negative energy, and instead associate with good gentlemen, the heart will reap tranquility and be broader.
Enlarge the pattern, and good luck will come
The words of wisdom in the Book of Exhortations remind us: "Mount Tai does not reject every grain of soil, thus making it majestic, and the river and sea do not find fault with any trickle, thus making it profound." ”
Just as the mountains are more majestic because they contain tiny sand and stones, and the rivers and seas become deeper and deeper because they gather trickles, people should continue to broaden their hearts and expand their minds in the journey of life, and welcome the gifts of fate with a broad heart, and embrace every coming of luck.
Guo Ziyi, a famous general in the Tang Dynasty, was famous, but he encountered the jealousy of the eunuch Yu Chaoen, and even his ancestral grave was dug up.
In the face of such insults, Guo Ziyi showed extraordinary bearing and said to the emperor: "This is the result of my own excessive killing, and there is no need to be held responsible." This move is intended to maintain the stability of the court and reflect its overall view.
Subsequently, Yu Chaoen set up a banquet to invite Guo Ziyi, fearing that his suspicions would change and endanger the innocent, Guo Ziyi resolutely decided to ride alone to the meeting.
His courage and tolerance deeply touched Yu Chaoen, and the two turned enemies into friends.
Guo Ziyi's life was highly respected because of this broad mind, and she died at the age of 85 with profound blessings.
This verifies a truth: the breadth of one's destiny is actually a reflection of the breadth of the soul.
If you are open-minded, everything is small;
The heart is open, and the worries are self-reduced;
With a big heart, your destiny will be smooth.
As the slang goes, "If you have a mind like the universe, you will always be ready to cross people." ”
When you can not be confined to the narrowness of others, do not indulge in personal difficulties, and tolerate all things with a peaceful heart, God will give back with unexpected gifts and the help of nobles, so that your wishes will quietly come true!
The ancients said: "The grass and trees are orderly in spring and autumn, and everything has its place." ”
It means that everything in the world has its own time, and only by going with the flow can we understand the true meaning of life.
In the journey of life, the appearance of every person and every event is not accidental.
They carry their own mission and contribute to our growth.
Trivial things actually teach us to give up and move forward, grasp the present, and focus on the future;
And those who are not satisfactory are the opportunity for us to introspect and improve ourselves, to distinguish between the good and the bad, and to broaden our minds.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about unsatisfactory situations.
Bad things are regarded as the step of growth, and bad people are regarded as the mirror of spiritual practice.
Only by being calm and unhurried and being the most authentic self can you be comfortable and laugh at the ups and downs of life.
May the rest of our lives be full of joy, befriended noble people, broad-minded, and enjoy the happiness of ordinary days.
