There is an old saying in China: "contentment is always happy." This sentence is very short, but if you taste it carefully, you will find it has profound meaning.
The so-called contentment with nature means learning to be content with things, which is what we usually call gratitude. Only by learning to be satisfied can we seek happiness under the premise of satisfaction and be "satisfied".
Life is not smooth, just like a seemingly calm lake will make waves, and a seemingly silent stream will fly down and splash. The seemingly smooth road will be full of thorns, so life is not smooth, and it is inevitable that some people will complain about some things in life. This is inevitable, but if we learn to have a more satisfied attitude, will we complain less about some things? Will we get more happiness from it? I think the answer to this question is beyond doubt. For people who are satisfied and those who don't know how to be satisfied, their attitudes towards one thing are completely different. () Half a glass of water will make you feel good if you are satisfied, and only a little if you are not satisfied. A contented person knows how to be content. They don't ask too much, so he will find it good in this matter. For people who don't know how to be satisfied, even if a very good, exquisite and perfect thing is placed in front of him, it will be full of loopholes and still feel that it is not good enough. Because he knows how to be content.
Everything in the world is not perfect. Even a piece of white jade will have flaws, even crystal clear running water will have impurities, and even a beautiful flower will wither. We can't force it too much, which is something we can't force. As long as we can learn to be content, we should always keep a contented heart. Only when we can always maintain a contented attitude can we constantly find happiness in life and discover the infinite beauty of things around us. So that some people always complain about something and make themselves feel dissatisfied.
Learn to be content, because contentment can make you happy. Only by learning to be content can we not always complain about things around us. You will always keep a contented mind and discover the beauty of things around you. You will always have a smile on your mouth.
If life is a sea of Wang Yang, then contentment is a beautiful spray. If life is a blue sky, then contentment is a beautiful white cloud. If life is a beautiful picture, then contentment is just an appropriate outline.
Real life often brings us a lot of unpredictable setbacks and pains. Only contentment can make the beauty of life come inadvertently. "Contented people always have fun", and in many cases, it is not a correct way to be less paranoid and more tolerant. Life is too short to haggle. Learn to be content and find the joy of life.
Socrates once said, "contentment is the wealth of talent." Tao Yuanming is the best proof. He discovered this wealth, so his life exudes extraordinary brilliance.
"Qin Wang sweeps Liuhe", what kind of ambition and glory it is! The king of Qin does not know how to be satisfied and is doomed to be "happy". His extremely luxurious palaces and temples were eventually destroyed in his own hands, and even the Qin Dynasty, which he had painstakingly managed for many years, disappeared into the long river of history and dispersed with the wind.
Happiness is not complicated, but contentment is the true meaning. Imagine, if a person can't even satisfy himself, struggle blindly, be dissatisfied blindly and be disappointed blindly, how can he be happy?
Of course, "contentment" does not mean lack of self-motivation. Instead, I worked hard, worked hard, and enjoyed the result happily-whether it was good or bad.
Contentment, like a glass of water, is simple but extremely important. Therefore, we should learn to be content and taste the simplest happiness in this myriad worlds.
Argumentation on contentment around us, we often hear all kinds of complaints and feelings: "Why are others so rich, but I am not?" Why do others live in houses and I live in apartments? Why? Why is this? "
In fact, this is a kind of greed. In this world, not everyone can be both a Tessa and a rich man. Therefore, never complain: "Why are others handsome and beautiful, but I am ugly?" Because once everyone dies, they will become dirt.
A businessman is watching his 8-year-old son catch birds in the yard. The device for catching birds is very simple. The edge of a small net is made of iron wire. The whole net is round and supported on one side with wooden sticks. This long rope is tied to a wooden stick. After the child scatters rice grains under the erected round net, he hides in the house with the rope.
After a while, several birds flew in, and the children counted them, as many as 10!
Those finches, probably hungry for a long time, soon saw the food, and eight finches walked under the net. At this time, the businessman motioned the child to pull the rope.
However, the child did not pull the rope, but quietly told his father to wait until all five people went in.
After waiting for a while, five didn't go in and four came out.
The merchant motioned for the child to pull faster, but the child said to wait a little longer, and then pull the rope when another 1 came in.
However, three more birds came out.
The merchant said to the child, if you pull the rope now, you can still play with one.
However, his children are not reconciled to the lost good fortune: "Some of them will go back and wait."
Finally, even the last bird was full before going out.
The child is very sad. ...
The businessman stroked the child's head and said lovingly, "The desire is endless, but the opportunity is lost. Many times, greed can not only satisfy our desires, but also make us lose what we once had. "
This story tells us that one should follow the attitude of contentment. Because if you are not satisfied, there will be no joy in life. Joy is a kind of enjoyment without cost. How much wealth you have does not necessarily mean how much happiness you can have. Only when you are satisfied can you enjoy the joy of life. How can you be happy if you want the sea and live in endless desires?
Some people, in order to have more money, do whatever it takes or even make mistakes and fall into the abyss of pain. ...
There is a classic saying: "What good is it for a person to earn the whole world and lose his own life?" ? What else can people exchange for life? "
Yes! What can be more important than life?
The person who lost his life for money is the stupidest person!
