People understand that they are satisfied and happy.

When I was young, I always knew everything, and it was true that it was true.

Later, when the age gradually grew and experienced the deepest experience, I finally understood:

Properly confused and learn to be content is true wisdom.

01

Confused is the ability

The writer Su Yi said: "I once thought that I lived well, but later discovered that a person who really lives and understands will not bear to let himself live too clearly."

When people reach a certain age, they will find that living too much is a negative, and everything cares about everything, and will only increase their troubles.

There was a sighing thing between Lu Xun and Lin Yutang.

At the beginning, the two lived in the same yard and were good friends with similar interests and often discussed literature together.

After dinner one day, the two sat together and smoked tea while talking.

During the period, Lu Xun threw the cigarette butt to the cigarette head. I did not expect that the cigarette butt was just on the mosquito nets of Lin Yutang, and the mosquito net burned a hole.

Lin Yutang was very angry about this and relentlessly reprimand Lu Xun.

Lu Xun felt that he was inadvertent, but the other party did such a small question, and he ignored his friendship too much.

So politely refuted: "Even if it is completely burned, it is only 5 yuan!"

As soon as Lin Yutang heard even more angry, the two quarreled, and never come and go.

Friends who have been interested in their feelings, but hurt and angry because of a trivial trivial matter, make people feel sorry since then.

In fact, many contradictions and entanglements in life lies in too real, and everything wants to win or lose and debate.

"The Tao Te Ching" has a saying: "The way of the saint is not fighting for."

Real wise people, tolerance and no argument, taciturn. Because they understand that for small things, they are anxious to get angry, and they will only lose their big loss.

Open one eye and close one eye, pretend to be deaf and dumb, so that you can live easily.

In "Dream of Red Mansions", Wang Xifeng deliberately teased Liu Ye in order to please his mother.

Let Liu Xun hold pigeon eggs with a slippery chopsticks, and also inserted many colorful flowers on Liu Ye's head, and dressed her into a romantic "old fairy", making everyone laugh.

Playing in the ugly appearance in public is also ridiculed by everyone, which is reasonable to say that this kind of thing will be angry.

However, not only did Liu Ye not care about it, but also took himself up:

"Although I am old, when I am young, I love flower powder, and I will make an old romance today!"

In fact, for Wang Xifeng and others, she deliberately played her old lady in the countryside, and asked Jia's mother -in -law's heart.

It is the wisdom of Liu Ye if you do n’t expose you to see it.

Taking a sense of confusion, it has become a complete person, and it will not be embarrassed.

Ji Xianlin once said: "Life is alive, sometimes it really needs cleverness, but even more confused."

False is not stupid, not stupid, but a kind of open -mindedness, a wisdom that changes power, and a ability to flex and stretch.

When you do it, you should not pretend when you understand. You should be more true when you should be confused.

02

Contentive is clever

"The Tao Te Ching" has a saying: "The sin is greater than desire, the calamity is greater than that, the blame is greater than the desire."

The people's heart is not enough to swallow the elephant. Even if they already have a lot, they still think about getting more, which is the evil of human nature.

There are two people in Lu State, one poor, one rich.

The poor are often happy, but the rich are full of sorrow all day long.

One day, the rich couldn't help asking the poor: "You are so poor, why are you so happy?"

The poor replied: "Although I am poor, I have all my clothes and eat all.

You have thousands of hectares, and you are always unhappy? "

The rich sighed: "Although I have a lot of money, but some people are richer than me, I am naturally unhappy."

Although the poor are poor, they can be poverty and enjoy the happiness and beauty in life.

Although the rich is rich, he wants to be richer, adding a lot of distress and losing a lot of fun.

Just as the Northern Song Dynasty poet Lin Yan wrote in the "Finding Records": Connect, poor and poor;

Whether a person can live comfortably is not how much wealth, but the size of desire.

Greeting is too strong, and will only live in unnecessary pain, know how to be content, naturally happy, and happy.

The story of a layman described in "The Great Mastest Theory":

This dweller is embarrassed, lacks clothes and eats, and is ridiculed as "the poorest."

But whether life is poor or rich, and the days are good or bad. He always adheres to the content of the Buddha's praise, and he will be peaceful.

He often recite a slang: "The first benefit of the disease is not the first, the prosperous is the first, the good friend is the first relative, and the nirvana is the first music."

Everyone in this world, no matter what kind of situation is in, knows how to maintain a contentment and a quiet mood.

Don't be greedy, don't try to try, in the vulgar world of material desires, keep a pure land for the heart, add a happiness and happiness to yourself.

As Master Jingkong said: "People know that they are contentment, their hearts are reluctant, and they are really happy."

Simple heart

I have seen such a story:

A fortune teller named "Blind Banxian" put on a blind man in order to make a living, wearing a pair of sunglasses.

In his fortune -telling career, he has met all kinds of people.Everyone thought he was really blind. He only closed his eyes for fortune -telling, and he couldn't open his eyes to see the real world.

So there were those who greedy money to take the fortune -telling remuneration in front of him, and some good people did some small actions that disrespected him in front of him.

In fact, blind Banxian can see clearly.

But he just smiled indifferently to others offending him and never kept heart.

For those who walked away for his fortune -telling, he also had an indifferent attitude, and nothing happened.

This kind of life that is neither compromised nor tangled for small profits has made him less troublesome, and live very comfortably.

At a certain age, people have seen more people, and they have experienced big and small things, and gradually realized something.

It is understood that the baht will only be more happy than finding themselves, and insufficient greed will end up.

Right and wrong, there is less care, and less greedy before and before the fame is the true ability, great wisdom.
