Before answering this question, please allow me to tell a story: an ugly girl is often teased by others for being ugly, so she lives in a low self-esteem and dares not go out to meet people. One day, she met the Buddha, who ate simple food, wore rough clothes and lived in a humble place. The girl felt very hard, but she saw peace and satisfaction in front of the Buddha. She asked the Buddha inexplicably, "Buddha, why are you happy?"

The Buddha smiled and asked her, "I can eat and sleep, why am I not happy?"

The girl suddenly understood that happiness is in her own hands, she lives for herself, and there is no need to pay for the ridicule of others. She no longer cares about other people's strange eyes, ridicule and irony, and generously goes in and out of some occasions, smiling brilliantly. Gradually, she became a popular person. She had many friends, and her appearance was ignored. What everyone remembered was her optimism and cheerfulness.

One question can be clarified from this story: Do you live for yourself or for others? If you live for others, then I want to tell you that you will never want to be really happy. Because you can't please everyone. If you agree with A's taste, it will definitely make B disgusted. You got B's wish, but C refused. You weigh them all day, running around, why bother?

Just be yourself. If you are an orange, you are destined to be an apple. If you are a banana, you are destined to be a pear. Then what are you worried about? Just make your oranges and bananas. Oranges are as sweet as oranges, apples are as fragrant as apples, bananas are as soft as bananas, and pears are as crisp as pears. Many times, they can't be better than anyone else.

A reporter interviewed an old man who lived to 103 and asked him the secret of longevity. The old man's answer is only four words: keep happy.

The reporter asked in surprise: "Have you never been unhappy in your life?"

The old man smiled faintly, and his eyes were banished for centuries.

Someone told reporters quietly that the old man had experienced wars, famines and disasters all his life. "He can fill a truck with disappointments." The man said.

The reporter was moved. The old man's face, but microwave is not interested. The old man murmured, "it is a day to live happily, and it is also a day to live unhappily." Life depends on how you live. "

Life throws us two choices, one is happiness and the other is unhappiness. You chose happiness, you chose sunshine and warmth. You will see flowers in full bloom and hear birds singing, and you will feel the joy of living in the dust. Even if you encounter some bumps and setbacks, you can be optimistic. Because you know, only happiness can alleviate the pain attached to you by life. Hold on, hold on, maybe we can wait until the day when the clouds open and the sun rises. On the contrary, if you choose to be unhappy and feel sorry for yourself all day, your ears will be deaf, your eyes will be blind, you will not see colorful beauty, and you will not hear the singing of running water and breeze. Your world is full of gloom, you live a negative and boring life, and the joy of life will be buried alive by you bit by bit.

Now, I can tell you why I am happy. That's because I have no choice but to choose happiness.
