Chapter 1354: Do what you want
Dragon Slayer.
Many times, many of people's dreams are often very simple......
However, the more simple the dream, the more difficult it is to actually realize it......
Just like when many people are children, when someone asks them what their wish is, many people will answer: "I hope the world can be peaceful......
In a sense, such an answer does not sound like an unattainable wish, because in the vast majority of the time, the world is relatively peaceful, and even if there is a war, it is only a war on a local level, and a world war in the real sense, even now, has only been born twice......
And the vast majority of people in this world are actually peace-loving......
Peace is the norm compared to war......
From this point of view, it is not difficult to realize the wish for so-called world peace......
However, if we think about it from another angle, the so-called world peace is the most difficult and difficult thing......
For no other reason, although peace is a mainstream state, complete peace in the true sense has never really existed, and conflicts and small-scale wars are constantly exploding and annihilating almost every moment......
It is almost impossible to achieve the so-called world peace, let alone peace between countries, and even the disputes and quarrels between individuals and individuals have never really stopped......
And the same reason, for Wang Yu. He has no ambitions. There's not much to pursue. All he asked for was four words......
Follow one's heart!
Yes, whatever you want!
Literally, it's actually easy to understand that the so-called freewheeling means doing whatever you want......
For the vast majority of ordinary people, this does not seem to be a difficult thing to do, because everyone has their own freedom. They all have the right to do whatever they want......
However, if you think about it carefully, it is actually very difficult to really do what you want......
From the word freewheeling, if you put it in another way, it is better to describe it in another word......
That's capriciousness!
Yes, capricious!
Literally, the so-called willfulness is to let one's own temperament dictate one's own behavior. Do whatever you want and ignore any rules and regulations......
Do whatever you want. You don't have to think about the background of the occasion at all, you can do what you want, and you can say whatever you want......
In many novels, or in reality, in fact, the vast majority of people should have seen such people, especially young girls or children, many of whom are very willful, often doing things that others can't understand or accept, or make others unable to get off the stage......
Such a person is actually very disgusting in society......
Because of this, generally speaking, a person who has been in society for a period of time will always gradually become less willful, always gradually become sleek, and gradually become sophisticated......
It can be said that society is a whetstone, and for anyone who enters the society, they need to go through such polishing in order to be able to integrate into society in the true sense......
If an ordinary person is always willful, then in fact there is no difference between being dead and dying......
To give you a simple example......
If a child always asks his parents to buy toys that they can't afford at home, then no matter how much the child's parents love the child, over time, the child will eventually be disliked by his parents......
After all, this kind of thing is not something that anyone can do......
Everyone has a different living space, has a different living environment, and under different living environments, everyone has a clear or dark rule that needs to be followed......
Just like for a child from a poor family, they must be sensible enough from an early age, and must not be able to cause any trouble to the family, even if it is something they like very much, if the price exceeds the scope of the family's burden, they should even put away their eager eyes, so as to avoid parents seeing what their children want, and feeling guilty because they can't afford it......
Only such a child can be regarded as a model of a child from a poor family......
Conversely, if you live in a relatively wealthy family, then the children's willfulness space can be slightly larger, and they may be able to let their parents buy them a huge cake or expensive toys for their birthdays, so that their parents can spare precious time to accompany them to the amusement park for a whole day......
From this point of view, if you want to be willful, it is not without conditions......
At least, many rich people can afford the dream, and the poor can't be capricious......
The so-called rich and capricious in society, from this point of view, is not unreasonable......
Rich people are capricious, because even if they are willful, for them, it will not produce too many evil consequences, they can not work, they can have fun all day long, they can get drunk and dream of death......
But ordinary people are different, many people have to pay off their mortgages, they have to pay off car loans, in such a situation, they can't lose their jobs, that is, because of this, even if they are angry in the company and accept unfair treatment, they can only grit their teeth and endure, and they can't be willful......
Because they know very well that willfulness is refreshing once, but the price of willfulness is unbearable!
I want to do something. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean you can do it. In fact, there will be a lot of constraints. For example, factors such as wealth, status, honor, and so on can actually limit what a person can do......
The more things a person has, the more constraints they have. The more you can't live as you want......
And a person has too few things, and sometimes they can't live as they want......
In a certain sense, freedom in the true sense of the word can be said to be the rarest thing in the world......
The so-called freewheeling, in essence, is a kind of freedom in the true sense!
Don't be bound by anything, don't be constrained by anything, just do what you want to do......
What kind of freedom produces freedom in the true sense of the word?

The so-called freedom is not a very simple concept......
Living in society. In fact, as an individual, there are many things that can be done. But......
However, all these things that can be done do not mean that they are truly free......
It's one thing to be able to do a lot of things, but after doing it, there are also a lot of things that you have to take a certain amount of risk......
For example, all kinds of illegal and undisciplined things, of course, can be done, this is the freedom of every person in power, but after doing it, there is naturally a risk of being caught, and because there is a risk of saving, so the vast majority of people in power, even if they use power for personal gain, will never reach the point of madness, and the vast majority will still have moderation......
Another example is killing people and setting fires, theoretically speaking, everyone can do it, but if you pay off your debts, kill people to pay for your life, and do something, you must be mentally prepared to take responsibility, that is, because of this, although everyone can do many things, only a few people can really do it......
Many times, even if you want to do something, you often choose to give up for various reasons, which is essentially a compromise with reality......
And with this kind of compromise, it can't actually be considered freedom in the true sense of the word!
Freedom itself is a relative concept......
Generally speaking, the vast majority of people in this world, what they pursue is actually nothing more than a relatively greater freedom......
The more wealth a person has, the higher the status he occupies, and the more people who identify with him, the higher the degree of freedom a person has, and the more he is able to act willfully......
If you have enough money, you can buy the island willfully, and if you have a high enough status, you can willfully punish corrupt officials and bullies, social tumors, and the more powerful the background, the more you can manage it when you see injustices, and be a modern Bao Qingtian......
The more freedom people have when they do things......
A lot of other people need to follow the rules, and they don't hold it for them......
It's like a five-star hotel, which is sure to turn away people in rags, but what if a world-famous rich man wears short-sleeved slippers to enter it? I'm afraid that no doorman will choose to stop him, but will only respectfully send him in, any high-end banquet where everyone is in a suit and leather shoes, will definitely refuse those who are not neatly dressed to enter it, but for the real rich, even if they are dressed in stalls, they will also attract the attention of everyone in the audience......
The greater the power and the higher the status of a person, the more places where he can be willful, and the more others will be able to tolerate their willfulness, and even regard their willfulness as an example......
It's like there was once a writer whose books were selling very well, and a reader once said that even if the book sold by this author was a wordless book without a word, they would buy the book back and treasure it at home, at most, the next time they bought his book, they would open it and take a look. Let's see if it's a sequel to the wordless Book of Heaven......
That's the case. Nature is just a joke. But it is enough to show that when an author's fame reaches a certain height, as long as he writes something, even if it is a wordless blank paper, as long as it is in his pages, it will become a precious souvenir worthy of book lovers......
And the same reason, in many TV series, in many novels. In many stories, there will always be such a bloody plot......
Professor so-and-so stole his student's essay sheet and won the grand prize, so-and-so fashion designer stole his student's design sheet and then won the grand prize, so-and-so writer stole his student's essay sheet and then won the grand prize......
In such bloody stories, many students always think that the teacher stole their achievements, but in fact. But they always ignore one thing, and that is whether it's a thesis. Whether it is a design or a novel, the reason why they will win awards after the table is not only because their talents have been recognized by the public, but on the other hand, it is absolutely impossible to ignore the influence of their teacher's reputation......
It's like the same costume design, if it is done by a fledgling designer, it may quickly be buried, but if it is the work of a master, then it is often easy to attract the attention of others......
In fact, a well-known fashion designer, no matter how ugly the clothes designed, will invisibly correct the public's aesthetic perception and even lead the fashion trend......
This is the power of authority......
People live in the world, there are many rules to follow, and the more superior the person, the less constraints they are restricted, and the more privileges they enjoy......
Although the vast majority of wealthy people do not wear short-sleeved slippers to some banquets, it is not because they can't do it, but simply because they don't want to......
For the vast majority of people who are barely qualified to attend, they must decorate themselves with dignity and elegance enough to be able to attend such a banquet, and even the choice of words and sentences, or etiquette things, must be impeccable, only in this way can they be truly recognized by the upper class people at the banquet......
On the contrary, the more casual and comfortable the person who behaves at a banquet, the higher the status of this person......
The richer a person is, the more he or she often has the qualifications to be willful......
However, if you want to be truly and completely willful, it is not enough to simply be rich......
From Wang Yu's point of view, in fact, there is a certain difference between willfulness and self in essence......
Capriciousness usually refers to some excessive self-awareness......
That is to say, when a person expresses willful feelings, that is, the vast majority of people feel that this person has done things too much, so it will be called willful behavior......
Completely ignoring the feelings of others and only taking into account one's own thoughts is a typical kind of willfulness......
Wayward and freewheeling, in essence, are similar in meaning, but willfulness is a derogatory term, while willfulness is relatively neutral......
When a person's actions are considered to be willful, most of the time, that person's actions have caused a certain amount of distress to others......
From Wang Yu's point of view, the freewheeling he pursues is actually a kind of freewheeling that is not capricious......
It may sound paradoxical, but if there are restrictions, how can it be called freewheeling?
In Wang Yu's view, doing what he wants means not letting his thoughts and behaviors be subject to any constraints, and it actually refers to his own feelings, the so-called self-knowledge of being warm and cold when drinking water......
And willfulness itself is actually just other people's opinions, and it has nothing to do with one's own feelings......
What you want to do and what kind of thoughts you create for other people has nothing to do with you in the world......
Of course, although other people's cognition of their own behavior has no impact on their own behavior, in Wang Yu's view, if his behavior causes trouble to his relatives and friends, then such behavior should still be slightly restrained and reserved......
In Wang Yu's cognition, doing what you want in the real sense is to do what you really want to do without causing trouble to your family......
Only in this way can it be regarded as a true freewheeling......
Maybe many people will have their own ideas and family conflicts, in this case, their behavior will appear a little willful in the eyes of others, for example, many young people who pursue their so-called dreams despite the opposition of their parents, in the eyes of many people, belong to the category of this willfulness......
However, Wang Yu will not, he always knows what he needs, and he always understands what his family needs to do, so he can always allow himself to achieve a state of unity of action and knowledge......
On the one hand, he pursues freewheeling, but on the other hand, he can abide by his own principles......
The so-called "doing what you want" is such a state......
This is a description of the state of the elderly......
The so-called knowing the destiny of heaven is such a state......
When a person's understanding and cognition of the world has reached a certain height, then he can do anything, no matter how he does it, he will faintly abide by the rules of this world, no matter what he does, it will be correct, and it will not cause other people to be disgusted......
This is like for a good person who has wisdom in the true sense, then no matter what he does, his point will be good, and his wisdom can ensure that he can always make correct judgments, then such a person, no matter what he does, will actually always be right......
It's like a saint, no matter what he says or does, he will be absolutely recognized, in fact, the same is true...... (To be continued!)
