Chapter 47: May life be as calm as water

Life is not a battlefield, and there is no need to compete against each other. Between people, there will be less misunderstanding, and between hearts, more tolerance, there will be less disputes.

Don't judge a person with your own eyes and cognition, and judge whether one thing is right or wrong. Don't expect others to have the same point of view as you, don't expect others to fully understand you, everyone has their own personality and point of view.

People often take themselves too seriously to suffer from gains and losses, and feel that others must understand them. In fact, people should look down on themselves, have less self, and have more empathy in order to be happy. As the saying goes, there is as much happiness as there is in the heart, and the more you tolerate, the more you get.

Don't talk about people behind your back, don't care about being said. There is nothing to say about people who are good, and the more outstanding people are, the more people will be said. There is nothing in the world that is not judged, and there is no one who is not judged.

We can't control other people's mouths, but we can look at all the troubles with an indifferent heart. Only when the mind is quiet can we hear the sound of all things, and only when the heart is clear can we see the essence of all things.

Precipitate your heart and watch the situation change. To get along with others, you need to pay attention to ways and means. There are some things that need to be endured and not to be angry, and there are some things that need to be let and not investigated. What's the point of suffering some losses, what about letting him score three points. Everyone needs to be respected, everyone wants to be understood. The water is silent, and the people are steady. Learn to calm down and learn to hold back your anger and face dissatisfaction.

We can't be too precise in everything, we can't be too strict with others, we can't be too harsh and have no friends. Only by knowing how to retreat can we show our magnanimity, and if we know how to tolerate it, we can show generosity.

The shortness of oneself should not be hidden, the more it is hidden, the shorter it will be; Don't show off when you're proud, don't be discouraged when you're frustrated. Flowers are not red for 100 days, people are not declining for 100 days, three points rely on luck, seven points rely on themselves, just work hard, do your best, the result is not the ultimate goal, the experience of the process is the most true understanding.

We do not ask for ten points in everything, but only in our hearts, and we do not want to be perfect in everything, but only strive to do our best.

There are some things that only after working hard can you know your achievements, and only after struggling can you know your potential. The flowers are elegant, the water is true, and the people are pure. To be a man needs to be light, light and fragrant. Not contentious, not flattering, not glamorous, not vulgar.

The real taste in the light, the real fragrance in the light. If the heart is unharmed, I will be harmed, and if people are not in love, how can you be hurt. Pain is due to comparison, and troubles are due to the heart. Calm, so not hurt, indifferent, so not annoyed. **It is the boiling water in the pot, the human heart is the tea in the cup, the water is boiling because of the heat of the fire, and the heart is not shocked because of the coolness of the cup. When ** is cold, precipitated in the heart, it will not be annoyed, not annoyed.

Don't laugh at the efforts of others and don't belittle their achievements. Everyone's worth is different, and there is no need to be dismissive of anyone. What is useless in your eyes may not be really useless. Not a single person, not a single thing.

Look at the people around you with a humble heart, and look at the things around you with a respectful heart.

There are always advantages in others that you can't see, and there are always values that you can't find, so there is no need to judge the efforts of others.

The ruler is short, the inch is long, and there is no perfect person in the world. Only by giving full play to one's own strengths and learning from the advantages of others can we better improve ourselves.

Right and wrong, disturbed one after another, without looking, listening, or thinking, you can feel calm. Sometimes, it's not because someone else has hurt you, it's because you care too much.

Some things don't need to be considered, time will tell, and some people don't need to see, and the Tao is different. The affairs of the world are the degree of the world, and the principles of the world are self-realizing. In the face of harm, it is open-minded to smile slightly, and in the face of insults, it is extraordinary to ignore them.

Patience is not cowardice, but tolerance, and concession is not incompetence, but generosity. "Care" about right and wrong, and "ignore" oneself is quiet. May life be as calm as water!
