Don't take yourself too seriously, in the rush of life, you are just a passerby, in the long history of mankind, not even comparable to the weight of a grain of sand.

One night, she was waiting at the airport. To pass the hours of waiting, she bought a box of cookies and a book. She found a seat, sat down, and began to read intently.
Suddenly, she noticed that a young man sitting next to her reached out and grabbed the biscuits in the box between them without hesitation. She didn't want to cause trouble, so she turned a blind eye.
The displeased lady also began to take biscuits from the box and eat them. She looked at her watch, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the person who "stole" the biscuit was doing the same.
She was even more angry, and thought to herself: "If I hadn't been so kind and educated, I would have swollen this impudent fellow's eyes a long time ago." ”
Every time she eats a biscuit, he eats it too. When the last cookie was left, he smiled unnaturally, reached out and picked it up, broke it in half, gave her half and ate the other half himself.
She took the half of the biscuit and thought, "This man is so uneducated!" Don't even say thank you! I've never seen anyone so brazen. ”
She let out a sigh of relief when she heard the boarding notice. She hurriedly stuffed the book into her bag, picked up her luggage, and went straight to the boarding gate, without even looking at the "thief".
After getting on the plane and taking a seat, she began to look for the unfinished book again. Suddenly, she was stunned, and she saw that her box of biscuits was still in her bag!
It's too late to ask that person for forgiveness. She felt very sad in her heart, because she herself was the arrogant, unreasonable, and uneducated "thief".

Once upon a time, we thought things were supposed to be a certain way, only to find out later that they weren't the way we thought they were?
There was a time when we relied on subjective assumptions to judge others unfairly because of a lack of trust, and as a result, we often turned away from the truth.
It can be seen that we should think twice before judging others, and think about the good side of others first, rather than rushing to make negative judgments.
If you think more about your own mistakes, you will slowly forget the mistakes of others, there is no right or wrong, but the position is different, and whose field is to be praised.
Please don't judge me rashly, you only know my name, but you don't know my story. You just hear what I've done, but you don't know what I've been through.
A truly strong person does not put too much thought into pleasing and attaching himself to others. The so-called circles and resources are just derivatives. The most important thing is to improve your internal skills. Only when you have cultivated well will others come to you.
If you are a sycamore, the phoenix will come to perch; I am the sea, the rivers come to gather, and the fragrance of flowers has its own butterflies. Only when you reach that level will you have the corresponding circle, not the other way around.
No one will walk with you for the rest of your life, so you have to enjoy it; No one is going to help you for the rest of your life, so you have to build a strong self.

Life is a feeling. When the people who love you abandon you, it will not help if you call the sky and grab the earth, life is scattered and impermanent; When there are people behind you who fly short and long, no matter how much your tongue is like a lotus, you can't argue, the world is full of ups and downs.
When the ambition is achieved, good things rise like a tide, and after frustration, they all fall like flowers. Don't take yourself too seriously, aggrieved, helpless, and want to cry, these are all indispensable parts of your life.
A person is always looking up to and envy the happiness of others, and when he turns around, he finds that he is being looked up to and envied by others. Actually, everyone is happy. It's just that your happiness is often in the eyes of others.
The mountain of happiness has no top or head. You have to learn to stop and go, look at the mountains, enjoy the rainbow, blow the breeze, and get the satisfaction of life in relaxation.
Happiness does not leave anyone behind, and sooner or later it will find you.
Life is so full of ups and downs that you never know what will happen in the next moment, and you will never understand why fate is the way it is for you.
It is only after you have experienced all the changes in your life that you will lose your initial glitz and look at the world with a humble attitude.
No matter how hard you try today, the fallen leaves will still fall tomorrow, and there are many things in the world that cannot be advanced in advance.
