Chapter 58: Essay "Fifty-Eight"
Life is like a road, all the way hard, all the way to the scenery, as far as you can see, is your life realm; Always seeing someone better than yourself means that you are going uphill; Always seeing people who are similar to yourself means that you are messing around; Always seeing people who are not as good as you are, it means that you are going downhill; Instead of complaining about the world, it is better to change yourself, adjust your mentality, and move forward positively, and your life journey will be full of sunshine.
In my own life, I have been looking at those who are better than myself, no matter what it is, sometimes I am really envious, because what they sometimes have is out of your reach, money, relationships, status, etc., which you can't look at, so don't focus on those external things, otherwise you will complain and complain.
I have a friend around me, who often complains in my ear about this and that, always talking about how rich people are, how they have a stake, whenever I hear this, I want to tell him that money is someone else's, and the relationship is someone else's, what you can do is to put in twice the time and effort than others, instead of complaining and complaining.
Of course, in the current environment, it may not be that you will have results if you work hard, but we still have to give it a try, which is better than complaining.
A person's life is like taking a bus, some people have a long trip, and some people have a short trip; Some people are very calm and can enjoy the scenery outside the window; Some people are lucky enough to be seated as soon as they get in the car; Some people are very unlucky, even when the whole car is sitting, he is still standing; Sometimes the seats elsewhere are constantly vacating, but the one next to me is silent; And when you make up your mind to go somewhere else, the person in the seat just happened to leave.
Therefore, the fate of life, whether lucky or unfortunate, must be tenacious and diligent. Life is an empty life, the replacement between there and no is life, the mentality after the gain and loss determines the bitterness and happiness, the fate does not refuse, the situation does not stay, and the gains and losses are downplayed, so that there is leisure to taste happiness.
In life, there are always many ditches to cross, years, there are always many regrets to make up, and there are always many confusions to comprehend in life; Some people always complain that they can't get out of the trough because they haven't walked and have been squatting there crying.
Life is impermanent, people's hearts are fickle, why bother with those grievances and grievances? If you look down, it doesn't matter if you are right or wrong, let it go, and the gains and losses of success or failure will be the same; Thousands of things in the world, with an indifferent smile, in the face of various circumstances in life, a smile passes, it is a kind of elegance of life.
