introduction
Time flies like a white horse, passing in a blink of an eye, leaving only endless nostalgia and the vicissitudes of the years.
People get old, and after the age of 65, with the aging of the body and the decline of memory, life can no longer be the same as before.
Choosing the right lifestyle, which is really important, will determine the quality of life in our later years.
When we are young, the lifestyle we pursue is fast-paced, but when we are old and retired, we have to slow down the pace of our lives in order to feel the details of life.
In the 10 years of 65~75 years old, the advanced "way of living" is: slow down, calm down, and let go
01. "Slow down": Don't be impatient or impatient, feel life.
When people are old, they must understand the preciousness of time and cherish the time of the rest of their lives.
Therefore, we must try to slow down our lives and slow down so that we can listen to the voice of life and savor the taste of life.
Get up early in the morning, take a leisurely walk in the park, listen to the insects and birds, look at the lazy clouds, and instantly throw away all your troubles, how pleasant life is!
Slow down and you'll hear a lot of wonderful sounds; Slow down, you can see the leaves dancing in the branches; Slow down, and you can feel the tremor of the years as it crosses the strings.
Life, in fact, is not only firewood, rice, oil and salt, not only troubles and trivialities, there are many beautiful things worth our understanding, but we used to go in too much hurry and forgot to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.
02. "Calm down": stay away from the hustle and bustle, self-cultivation.
Now that smartphones have taken over our lives, how long have you not been quiet to read a book?
In this era, there are too many ways to entertain, people are becoming more and more impetuous, and there are very few people who can really calm down.
Therefore, in the 10 years of 65~75 years old, we must cultivate our hearts well, calm ourselves down, and stay away from the hustle and bustle of cars and horses.
The ancients said: "When the heart moves, everything moves; When the heart is quiet, everything is quiet. ”
Only by calming down can we not be affected by the fluctuations of all things in the world, truly live for our own hearts, and will not be swayed by other people's opinions.
Tranquility is born from the heart, and the environment is transformed from the heart.
Zhuge Liang once said: "The trip of a husband and a gentleman is quiet to cultivate oneself." ”
Only by calming down can we better cultivate ourselves.
People who are too impetuous will not calm down to read a good book and reflect on themselves, so it is impossible for such people to progress.
People with a calm mind are often able to reflect on themselves, be able to calm down and learn, and constantly improve themselves, not seeking to be a perfect saint, but at least being able to be a person with extremely high cultivation and connotation.
03. "Put it down": Don't worry about the future, don't regret the past, and live in the present.
The Buddha said: "Everything follows fate, everything is like a dream, let go of obsessions, and the mood is self-relieved."
The reason why many people still feel very tired and miserable after living to the age of 6 or 70 is because they can't let go of their obsessions and always live in the past.
complained that when he was young, he didn't make good money, he didn't seize the opportunity to change his fate, and now he has become a retired old man who does nothing.
Or complain that you didn't know how to cherish it when you were young, missed a beautiful marriage, and didn't go to the end with your beloved......
However, there are no ifs in life, and since it is a thing of the past, then there is no need to regret it.
There are some things that we cannot control, and the power of human beings is very small in front of the universe.
The more you can't let go, the easier it is to lose; The more you try to catch it, the faster it disappears. The more you want to have, the more often it doesn't belong to you; The more you want to grasp it, the more you lose it.
So, learn to let go and accept the uncertainties of life. What belongs to you will not leave, and what does not belong to you will not be kept after all.
Calmly faced,
Don't be anxious about what may happen in the future, because no one can say for sure, what we can do is to grasp the present, cherish the sunshine of every day, embrace life, love life, and live up to the last golden years of life.
