What is philosophy? What is life? Maybe everyone has a different understanding. In my opinion, philosophy is an attitude towards life, more precisely, an attitude towards life that makes us feel happy and meaningful.
I like to compare a person's life to a line segment, and life and death are the end points. Line segments are long and short, so is life. Some people live long, others die young. We never know when we will die, and we have to admit that this is the helplessness of life, but it is precisely because of this that we should treat life better and not die one day with full regrets.
How can we live a happy and meaningful life?
In today's society, most people no longer worry about survival, but with the continuous development of material civilization, people gradually find that the happiness they want is not accompanied by material things. The whole crowd is full of complaints, such as complaints from senior officials, complaints from low positions, complaints from the poor and complaints from the rich. People seem to be more anxious and don't know why they feel insecure, such as infectious diseases and cross-infection. It seems that we have everything except happiness, which may be one of the reasons why the country puts forward the goal of building a harmonious society after putting forward the goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way.
As we know, Taoism advocates putting the individual's natural existence and spiritual freedom above all external attachment, getting out of life's predicament and breaking free from bondage? Material service? The bondage, the pursuit of personality liberation and free life. Lao tze put it forward? To the virtual pole, keep quiet? The way of cultivation, advocating? Back to the original? It is believed that the existence of human life should communicate with nature, control and transcend material desires, prevent secular joys and sorrows from disturbing one's calm, free and pure state of mind, and maintain one's natural nature from beginning to end. However, with the complexity of the times and people's busyness, how many people know how to stop the pursuit of material at an appropriate time, face up to their hearts and see if they have lost themselves in material? See if your mind has been covered with thick dust?
I am a person who likes to stare at the night with wide eyes. Most of the time, I don't think about anything but greedily enjoy the silence of the night. Sometimes thoughts change quickly. Look at the gains and losses along the way in the past, sometimes look to the future, think about how to go in the future, and ask yourself what you are looking for and what you want.
Life needs constant reflection, and it is rational reflection. Professor Fu Peirong once said: When
Only when you really think about your experience rationally can you know what you should do and what kind of life is more ideal and suitable for you. Ideal represents the future, and philosophical thinking is to enable people to connect in the dimensions of the past, the present and the future, so that their lives are no longer just living in the process of the present. ?
I know that I can't reach the height and depth of philosophy now, but I always believe that for the same thing, a person will have different experiences at different stages of life. Many times, we don't know something and people because we are too far away. For example, when I was a teacher, my heart was full of admiration and awe. With the growth of age, I gradually lost the feeling of admiration, mixed with some complicated feelings. Now, when I choose to be a teacher in the future, my feelings are very different. I vaguely feel that this profession bears a heavy responsibility and it is not easy to be a good teacher.
Life is a process of growth, so people always change. Inevitably, after years of walking, wind and rain. I always do things in junior high school. Always? Don't hit the south wall and don't look back? Fuck my mother's heart Later, in high school, I still didn't pay attention to learning, and my college entrance examination results were really a mess. Later, I embarked on the road of re-reading, suddenly grew up, began to care about my parents and others consciously, and began to know how to work hard for my life. My self-confidence is slowly picked up, and so is happiness. Now I don't moan anymore, no more? Worried about assigning new words? , no longer blindly willful. Many times I will still be moved by some people or things, but I won't burst into tears every time I am moved. I am no longer immersed in those sad words as before, and I gradually prefer to read articles that are close to life, full of philosophy and human feelings. I won't cut reality and ideal into two pieces, and I have learned that life is neither bright nor bleak. My heart has finally become stronger and more mature through experience. I understand that I have to learn to let everything leave sadness and parting. Both gathering and parting are born in my eyes, hidden in my heart, and I only make scenery quietly, although I can't do it now.
He said: I quite agree with Epicurus' definition of happiness? Happiness means that there is no pain in the body and no turmoil in the soul? This reminds me of Tagore's beautiful poem? Our desire lends the color of rainbow to the life of clouds? There are also many devout pilgrims on TV under Potala Palace and in front of Jokhang Temple. Men and women are unkempt, wearing long aprons and wooden slippers, facing the Buddhist temple, looking dignified, mumbling Buddhist prayers, holding their hands above their heads, bending down, straightening up, touching their heads and noses, and knocking their foreheads. When they stand up, they can see the marks on their foreheads and clearly see the earth they are crawling on. It is said that they can't walk ten miles by crawling all day. But I'm in their

I don't see any fatigue and tiredness on my face, nor a trace of anxiety and resentment, only peace and tranquility. Their eyes shone with strange light, as if golden hope and happiness were calling ahead. With gratitude, they knelt down firmly and knocked forward. In order to make a pilgrimage, they will smash their limbs, and the Sect will be bloody and will not stop; In order to make a pilgrimage, they begged for a living along the way, and even if they starved to death in Shan Ye, they did not regret it. So read Cang Yang Jia Cuo's poem again? I traveled all over the world just to meet you on the road. ? You have a complete epiphany.
In life, we praise the sublime, but we don't want to pursue it; We praise faith, but we are unwilling to practice it. What a devout believer, measuring his pure and clear faith with his body.
In fact, the heart is like a cup. Some people like to plan by hook or by crook, trying to fill the cup, and the water will overflow when it is full. However, too many burdens and desires always bend the chest and make people suffocate. Along the way, there is no time to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, no time to smell the fragrant flowers, no time to experience the lingering love and tenderness of the butterfly. Always keep your head down, lean forward and make a climbing posture. People, it is better to abandon something at the right time. Leave some cups empty and leave yourself a quiet, elegant and indifferent space. In the afternoon, you can enjoy the clouds, listen to the rain and watch the tide, wade and lie on the waves.
Just as the Buddha said: A restless heart looks at the world, impetuous, noisy, Yun Qi, dusty and dark, which is a gourd that can't be pressed into the water, and the wind can't stop the prayer flags. However, in real life, most people can't be calm inside. With the development of material civilization, various new diseases appear constantly. Even so, I dare not follow Epicurus? The definition of happiness? Jumping to conclusions, most people are unhappy at present. I can only be sure that my own yearning is to pursue the Epicurean happiness I agree with. Of course, I must admit that I am an ordinary woman, and I can't be quiet inside. This may always be my pursuit of happiness.
I think philosophy is an attitude towards life, guiding people to minimize the interference of inner desires on the soul. Life needs to be managed with care, so our hearts should always be maintained? Up, okay? Attitude, that is, to maintain the most primitive and purest kindness, simplicity and purity in the heart.
