Eating sugar for the first time

(Sweet feeling is happiness)

A Tibetan cadre named Tashi Dawa asked others to guess what was the happiest moment in his life, but no one could guess. He said, "That was the first time I ate fruit candy."

It was a day in the early spring of 1950. Tashi Dawa, then a serf, was grazing and met a young team. Each of them has a dazzling red five-star on his hat. He was very scared, but the soldiers were very friendly. A soldier his age gave him a fruit candy. This is an ordinary sugar. He didn't know what it was, but the soldier drew a piece of paper and put it in his mouth to eat. He dared not eat it, so he held it in his arms.

After what happened, I dare not say anything, because the serf owner knew to gouge out his eyes and cut his tongue. In the dead of night, he secretly took out this piece of fruit candy, peeled off the paper and put it on his mouth and licked it gently. God, a feeling I have never experienced spreads all over my body, and there are such wonderful things in the world. He licked it again, almost suspecting that he was dreaming. He cherished it, took it out and licked it at a certain time, and it took him a long time to finish eating the sugar.

Tashi Dawa, who later became a senior cadre in Xizang Autonomous Region, didn't know how much sugar he ate or how proud he was, but only this time he ate sugar, which made him feel the deepest and happiest.

Lin Juemin's farewell letter.

(Happiness is happiness for the whole world)

Lin Juemin is one of the seventy-two martyrs in Huanghuagang. He was born in a rich family. For the sake of feudal rule in Qing Dynasty, he abandoned his wife and children, left a happy family and joined the revolution. For the sake of national prosperity and national rejuvenation, he participated in the Guangzhou Uprising led by Sun Yat-sen. Unfortunately, he was shot and injured when attacking the Governor's Office, and was arrested, and finally died.

Lin Juemin made full preparations for sacrifice before the uprising. Three nights before the attack on the governor's office, he wrote a farewell letter to his father and his wife respectively. The letter to my father wrote: "My son is dead, but I am tired of the hardships of adults. My sister-in-law lacks food and clothing and ears. However, it is of great benefit to my compatriots all over the country. " The letter to his wife wrote: "Since I met you, I have been wishing all lovers in the world all shall be well. However, there are red clouds everywhere, and the streets are full of wolves and dogs. How many can be satisfied? ..... I love you and help the whole world to love what they love, so I dare to die before you, regardless of you. You care about my heart, and you care about the world when you cry. You should also be willing to sacrifice your and my welfare for the happiness of the world. " Lin Juemin wrote this letter with deep attachment to his beloved wife. From this, we can see the noble feelings of a revolutionary, sacrificing personal happiness for the happiness of the world, which is happiness.

Du Lang seeks happiness.

Happiness exists in every detail of life.

In our world, the most elusive thing is the deliberate pursuit of happiness. American writer William? Du Lang once described how he sought happiness. He first sought happiness from knowledge and got only disillusionment; Looking for it from travel, all you get is fatigue; Looking for wealth, all you get is struggle and sorrow; Looking for it from writing, all you get is fatigue. One day, however, he came out of the station and saw a young woman sitting in a car with a sleeping baby in her arms. A middle-aged man got off the train and went straight to the carriage. He kissed his wife and kissed the baby gently-for fear of waking him up. Then the family drove away. At this moment, Du Lang was surprised to find out what true happiness is. He breathed a sigh of relief happily and understood that every normal activity in life carries some kind of happiness.

Every detail of life actually carries some kind of happiness. That shallow kiss contains her husband's care and her father's love, but this small detail is full of the most detailed interpretation of human feelings. Can you say that your wife was unhappy when she accepted that kiss? Can you say that the baby doesn't feel taken care of? That's what happiness is called. You don't need any magic formula, just your emotional input. Give a sleeping child a loose quilt, and pulling the quilt hand is the way to summon happiness; Knocking on the tired lover's back, up and down, elastic fist is the way to summon happiness; Tell an old joke to my parents who are getting old quietly. Smooth airflow is a powerful way to summon happiness. When you use these methods to summon happiness, aren't you the happy person in the world at this moment?

There is happiness when there is love.

(Yan Ni's view of happiness)

The love between Marx and his wife Yan Ni is an enduring story. Yan Ni is a great woman. For love, she left a rich family and lived a poor life with Marx. During his exile in London, his family lived on potatoes for several weeks. There is no firewood to make a fire in severe winter, and there is no money to call a doctor when you are sick. He can't afford the rent, and his iron bed, bedding and clothes, and even his daughter's toys and children's bassinets are mortgaged. Marx wrote Critique of Political Economy, but he didn't have the postage to send the manuscript to Berlin. Children have to drop out of school because they can't afford tuition. The child died of illness and had no money to buy a coffin for burial ... In the face of such a bad day, Yan Ni didn't complain or leave. On the contrary, she is always full of confidence in life because there is love in her life. She once proudly said, "The day when I sat in Carl's room and copied his scribbled articles was the happiest moment in my life."

Xu Xiake's Adventure Career

(Happiness is in the process of struggle)

A little boy was born in Jiangyin County, Jiangsu Province in A.D. 1586 (the 14th year of Wanli of Ming Dynasty). He is Xu Xiake, a China historian and geographer.

From the age of twenty-two, Xu Xiake began a hard journey and an adventurous life until one year before his death. For more than 30 years, he braved difficulties and obstacles, waded through mountains and rivers, slept in the wind, and traveled to Putuo, Zhejiang in the east, Hebei in the north, Fujian and Guangdong in the south, the top of Huashan in the northwest, and Yunnan and Guizhou in the southwest, covering 16 provinces at that time. Although he was robbed three times and deprived of food four times, he almost lost his life, but Xu Xiake never regretted it. He made a comprehensive and systematic investigation on the topography, landform, hydrology, climate and vegetation where he went. Years of hard practice have finally yielded fruitful results. Xu Xiake's Travels enjoys a high position in the history of science and technology in the world with its vivid style.

1636, when Xu Xiake was preparing to March to the southwest, he was discouraged because he was over half a year old, but he said decisively: "I have a hoe on my shoulder. Where can't you bury bones? " Xu Xiake devoted his life to geographical research. In his later years, he still felt a little sorry. He thought that he could not travel all over the mountains and rivers of the motherland, not to Kunlun Mountain, but to more remote places to further explore the mysteries of nature. Perhaps those who dissuade him will never understand why he is so persistent because field trips are so difficult and dangerous. Why doesn't he know how to enjoy life Only Xu Xiake knows that his ideal is lifelong struggle, and the process of struggle is the process of enjoying happiness.

Confessions of corrupt officials

Greed is the beginning of misfortune.

Happiness is created by hard-working hands. If you want something for nothing, you will only go to the abyss of evil, so greed is often the starting point of misfortune. Look at the confessions of these two corrupt officials:

Xu Bingsong (former vice chairman of the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, accepting bribes of 550,000 yuan, sentenced to life imprisonment in August,1999);

In the 1970s and 1980s, I lived a poor life and worked as hard as ordinary people. With the deepening of reform and the widening of distribution gap, my psychology is becoming more and more unbalanced. Being in a leading position and in power will inevitably lead to a scene of reciprocal exchange, and the ideological defense line will gradually collapse. From resisting and refusing, it turned into escaping, and then by luck, I gradually felt at ease and completely lost my resistance.

Zhong (former president of China Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Fujian Branch, accepting bribes equivalent to RMB 2.05 million, the source of huge property of RMB 49 1.48 million was unknown, and he was sentenced to death in June 2000);

Being in the financial system, I have witnessed some people taking advantage of the transformation from planned economy to market economy to seize valuable resources such as land, labor and means of production and get rich quickly. I also see that others have accumulated huge wealth by relying on relationships in the "dual track system" of means of production, which has shaken my political confidence and lost my direction in life. I want to quit my old job gradually and start my own business. Many private business owners like me. I took money from several of them and ended up in prison.

Carnegie's charity work

Giving back to society is happy.

/kloc-Andrew, the American "steel king" in the 0/9 th century? Carnegie controlled a quarter of the national steel production in 1892, with an annual profit of more than 20 million dollars. From 65438 to 0900, his company's annual income was as high as 40 million dollars. This year, he published a monograph "The Gospel of Wealth", which systematically put forward the idea of establishing charity. Moreover, he also practiced and became the spokesman for promoting the western charity concept. Since 189 1 donated a concert hall to new york, Carnegie has continuously donated great halls, concert halls, art galleries, museums and libraries to various places. In terms of library construction alone, Carnegie invested120,000 US dollars in 16 and set up 3,500 libraries, benefiting people from all walks of life. 1895, he donated money to establish Carnegie Pittsburgh College, 1902, Carnegie Washington College, 1903, The Hague Peace Building, 1904, American Heroes Fund, 1905, Retirement Fund for Senior Professors,/

Carnegie got rich benefits from society and owned huge assets, but he was not satisfied because it was not a happy life. Only when he returns these wealth to society and makes contributions to society, is he the happiest.

Yilin story

Happiness is a state of mind.

I heard this story a long time ago: the king is supreme, but he is not happy. So the wise man told him that to be happy, he must put on the shirt of someone who feels happy. He looked for everyone everywhere, but no one was happy. Finally, he found that the happy man was a beggar, but the beggar had no shirt.

I just laughed it off when I heard the story. Until recently, I saw a post on a community forum saying that her friend was well-off and just bought a house, but she felt unhappy. Constantly worried: what will life be like in the future? What should I do if I have a baby? Is it dangerous to walk on the road? In short, she is unhappy and feels that life is meaningless.

Suddenly, I understood the story above. It turns out that in life, each of us may be a king or a beggar. We can live comfortably and feel that we are still unhappy. Living a poor life, you can enjoy yourself. Kings and beggars are actually just a state of mind.

To some extent, everyone is chosen by life. In the face of life, no one can guarantee that he will always be healthy, happy in his family and happy in everything. There will always be many setbacks waiting in the future. Don't always want to ensure an unpredictable future, just grasp the happiness in front of you, even if you are a beggar, happiness is enough.

Also learn to enjoy happiness.

We have been used to living in reminders since childhood. At the first sign of trouble, my mother said, don't forget to put on more clothes. Just met a friend, my father said, be careful that he is a liar. You achieved a little success, but you didn't laugh. All the people who care about you say together, don't be proud! We are used to living in reminders. There are always disasters in life. In fact, most people have learned to face disasters calmly, but we have not learned to live happily between disasters. We pay too much attention to the vigilance of suffering and ignore the reminder of happiness. Please pay attention to happiness from now on! Does happiness also need to be reminded?

Think of falling ... think of slippery roads ... think of being cheated ... think of being humiliated ... The sages reminded us 100 1 times, but didn't remind us of happiness. Maybe they think that happiness can't run away without reminding. Maybe they think you will cherish good things instead of exhorting them. Maybe they value blood and fire too much and think happiness is not worth mentioning. They always stand on the cliff and tell us how to escape the future suffering. But what is the time after avoiding pain?

That is happiness!

Learn to enjoy happiness and be reminded when happiness comes. When spring comes, we should say to ourselves, it's spring! My heart will be green. When we are happy, we should say to ourselves, please remember this moment! Happiness will accompany us for a long time.

When we have nothing, we can also say: I am very happy. Because we still have healthy bodies.

When we no longer enjoy health, the bravest people can still smile and say: I am very happy. Because I still have a healthy heart. Even when we are connected to each other, the molecules of the human show can still say loudly to the universe: I am very happy. Because I have lived.

Always remind yourself to pay attention to happiness, just like watching the sun on a cold day, your heart will be warm and bright unconsciously. (Excerpted from Bi Shumin's "Remind Happiness")

Relive your own happiness.

If you wake up healthy this morning, you are luckier than millions of others, who won't even see the sun next week. If you have never experienced the danger of war, loneliness, torture and hunger in prison, then you are in a better situation than the other 500 million people; If you can get in and out of the church or temple without any threat, violence and killing danger, then you are luckier than the other 3 billion people; If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof on your head and a bed to sleep in, then you are richer than 75% of the people in the world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet and in your pocket, you are the luckiest person in the world. If your parents are married and not divorced, then you are really one of the few people on earth; If you read this letter, you have just received a double blessing, because someone has thought of you, and you are not among the other 2 billion illiterates.

So, go to work instead of making money; Love, forget all the wrong things that others have done to you; Go dancing regardless of other people's attention; Don't feel that someone is listening when singing; Live as if the world were heaven.

Happiness is to create happiness.

Once a child asked his grandfather, "Do you have a flower ball?" Grandpa said, "No."Unexpectedly, the child was not satisfied, but asked the question four times in one breath. Grandpa was puzzled. After answering four times in a row, he asked, "Why do you always ask this?" The child said, "I like to hear you say' no'." "Why?" "Because the beard is so funny."

So grandpa smiled, and his beard turned into a flower-for nothing but this beautiful "hope" of his little grandson.

In other words, from this moment on, grandpa always says "no" as much as possible. Not only that, the old man specially put on reading glasses and meticulously rummaged through the dictionary at home in order to find more words with similar pronunciation to "no"

Over time, many such words appeared in Grandpa's words, such as "plum blossom", "briquette", "eyebrow", "rose", and even "plum blossom" and "strawberry". He even made up a plot in his own story: "Plum blossoms are in bloom, and winter with white eyebrows is coming. At this time, there are no roses or strawberries. You see, although there are no plum blossoms and strawberries, we have briquettes and stories. How beautiful! " So, the little grandson smiled.

Whenever the old man says these words in front of his grandson, he always pays special attention to pronunciation and articulation, and tries to make his beard stand high.

The little grandson was fascinated, and the grandfather's face was full of smiles.

Laughing happily.

Yes, "happiness" is not mysterious at all. As long as you think of others, as long as you really sow warmth, you will have happiness.

Where is happiness?

One day, the puppy asked his mother, "Where is happiness?"

Mom smiled and said, "Happiness is on your tail."

As a result, the puppy runs around chasing his tail every day, but he can't catch it.

The dog was unhappy and asked, "Mom, why can't I catch up with happiness?"

Mother touched the puppy's head and said, "As long as you raise your head and stride forward, happiness will always follow you!" " "

It turns out that happiness is so simple that you don't need to pursue it deliberately. As long as you move forward bravely, you will have it. Because it is with each of us, right behind us. Then, as long as the puppy looks back, there is actually happiness behind it. It is also happiness.

Happiness is the end of a long wait.

19711014 New York Post published a very touching novel. The story in the novel was later composed into a song and spread all over the world with the singing. This song is about tying a yellow ribbon on an old oak tree. The story goes like this:

A group of students went out to travel and saw a middle-aged man with a serious face on the long-distance bus. He has been sitting in silence. Perhaps the enthusiasm of his classmates infected him, and he finally told his story: he was sentenced to three years in prison for bankruptcy and just got out of prison. On the eve of his release from prison, he wrote a letter to his wife in Georgia and asked her if she would still accept him. If his wife is still waiting for him to come back and is willing to continue living with him, tie a yellow ribbon on the old oak tree at the door; If she already belongs to someone else and does not wear a yellow ribbon, he will leave silently and will not disturb her new life.

The story of that man touched everyone, and as we got closer to home, everyone became more and more uneasy. When he was about to get home, the man didn't even dare to open his eyes and begged the driver to help him see the results ... Finally, the mystery was revealed, and only the driver and all the passengers cheered for him at the same time. When he opened his eyes, he saw hundreds of yellow ribbons flying in the wind on the old oak tree, and everyone was moved to tears!

This song from 65438 to 0973 ranked first in the American song charts for four consecutive weeks. The yellow ribbon has also become a symbol of "welcoming prisoners to regain their freedom" in the United States. When a long-lost relative comes back, the family will tie a yellow ribbon on the tree in front of their house, which has become a local custom.

Chasing happiness

In the early morning, a sprinkler bathed the street at dawn with beautiful music. In the mirror, the driver was surprised to find a boy running behind the car. He ran very hard, panting, and sweat as big as a bean slipped into his mouth, shaking his slender legs almost into a knot. After several blocks, the driver finally couldn't help being curious and got off the bus to stop the flustered boy. He sharply questioned the boy, only to find that he was in tears. It turns out that today is his birthday, but he is an orphan. He ran with the sprinkler because the music "Happy Birthday to you" was playing repeatedly on the car. Only in this way can he hear the blessing from the whole bath city: Happy birthday to you!

The boy's running reminds me of the Tibetan antelope. The Tibetan antelope lost in winter suddenly found a faint light and ran desperately, hoping to get the warmth like sunshine in spring. Although it knows that it is only a light, it still runs hard, because in the process of running, it can feel the warmth in every step full of fantasy and expectation.

Happiness is a need.

I think he is very happy: he works in an office and has a steady income. Unlike me, I am always ready to lose my job. Once, he said to me, "If possible, I really want to give my boss a scolding and resign."

Why? What I admire most is what he can't stand most. How happy I will be if I get that job.

I envy his wife, too. She has a good background. His wife's family made a lot of efforts for him when he entered the office. But he said that his wife should not be above him, otherwise there would be no happiness. Why is this happening again? It is his suffering that I envy.

An entrepreneur took his son to a restaurant for dinner, and a pianist was playing in the restaurant. The entrepreneur said with regret: I practiced piano in those days, and later I chose to do business. If I choose to practice the piano, I can sit at the piano and play for you today.

The son said, "Dad, if you had chosen to practice the piano, you wouldn't have a chance to sit here and enjoy music today."

I don't know if that pianist would think that if only he had chosen to do business, now he can sit at his desk and enjoy food while listening to music.

What is happiness? This is really the hardest question to answer. For people suffering from illness, good health is happiness; For those who are trapped by love, it is happiness to have a lover. For those who are eager to achieve something, career success is happiness.

Where is happiness? Pushkin said that the characteristic of happiness is peace of mind. How can the mind be calm is nothing more than meeting one's own spiritual needs. The so-called happiness is nothing more than a need in the heart. Everything in the world can bring happiness to people, even if it is just a gust of wind passing over your forehead.

Sometimes misfortune is great luck.

In the ancient Italian city of Pompeii, there was a flower girl named Niya. Although she was blind, she didn't feel sorry for herself or shut herself up at home in frustration. On the contrary, she works like an ordinary person and earns her own living.

One day, Visvi Sand Volcano erupted, and Pompeii faced great disaster. The whole city is shrouded in smoke and dust, as dark as midnight without stars. Panicked residents looked everywhere for a way out, but they couldn't find it. But Niya is very comfortable in this environment, because she can't see it, and she has been selling flowers in the city for years, so she is very familiar with the city. Her misfortune turned into great wealth. She found a way out by her own sense of touch and hearing, and also saved many people.

God is fair. Fate closed one door for Niya and opened another door for her. Unfortunately, sometimes it is luck, not only yourself, but also others.

Application and innovation

Money can also bring happiness.

Some people say that happiness comes first and money comes second. Some people say that health comes first and wealth comes second; Some people say that rich people are unhappy, while others say that money is not everything. After all, money seems to be the enemy of happiness.

However, don't forget that "money is not everything" is followed by a saying, "nothing can be done without money". Maybe happiness doesn't have to be bought with money, and money can't buy happiness, but I believe money can also bring happiness.

We have all learned in politics class that money is a universal equivalent, which represents goods. Money represents resources and is the material basis of human existence. Only by ensuring survival first can one feel happiness and happiness further. If he can have enough money, he can arrange his life more comfortably and richly. Isn't this what we often call a well-off life? If you are alive, your mood will be more comfortable, your spiritual life will be happier and your happiness will be stronger, won't it?

Monopoly bill? Gates decided to donate 95% of his property in his lifetime, but he still left his children $654.38+$005,000 as living expenses, because he knew that this money was the basis for them to create their own happy life.

Many times, a little money can make people satisfied and happy. What is happiness? In the movie "Please Praise Me", Yang Hongqi, a migrant worker, said, "I'm hungry. If you have a steamed stuffed bun in your hand, you will be happier than me; I am cold, you are wearing a cotton-padded jacket, and you are happier than me. I want to be convenient, the toilet is squatting, you occupy it, you are happier than me. " For such a person, give him a steamed stuffed bun, a cotton-padded jacket and a squat posture, and he will feel happy. What a simple thing! A little material and wealth can make people feel happy, so why not? So, don't be so exclusive of money, money can also bring happiness.

Happiness needs forgetting.

There is a saying that forgetting the past means betrayal. In my opinion, we should remember what we shouldn't forget, but we should also learn to forget what we should forget, such as the painful past. If you want to be happy, you should learn to forget the pain of the past.

If you let the shadow of misfortune hang over you all the time, you will not feel the happiness now. At present, the suicide rate is so high, so many people are mentally ill because they don't know how to forget, and they are always troubled by some meaningless past and can't get out. Leslie Cheung also jumped off a building because he couldn't get out of psychological troubles, which made an absolutely beautiful artist end his life in a hurry and made everyone feel sorry for it. So people should learn to forget and release themselves.

In Hugo's novel Les Miserables, there is a little girl named Cosette. She had an unhappy childhood. Because my mother is a prostitute, her status is humble and she can't support herself, so she has to be placed in the couple's house. Who knows that the couple are greedy and cold, don't care about her at all, embarrass her everywhere and insult her. The situation is pitiful. Later, she met the kind Jean Valjean, and her fate changed. Jean Valjean took her out, adopted her as his adopted daughter, and let her live the life of a noble lady. Later, she married a handsome and upright young man. It should be said that fate has begun to care for her. What should she do at this time? If she can't forget the misery of her childhood and think about it over and over again all day, she won't feel happy. So she should forget the past and cherish the present time in order to be happy.

So, I don't think forgetting the past is necessarily betrayal. If you want to be happy, you should learn to forget.
