A gorgeous dividing line
Celebrities are like stars. But there are also many unknown ordinary people who collect firewood and maintain the prosperity of the incense in Fengguo Temple with the light of fireflies.
Today, I met a young man named Sheng from Shuozhou, Shanxi, who is not yet 30 years old. What caught my attention was that he was wearing plain clothes and writing his name on the merit book, and the smiling staff also praised and thanked him for his merits.
I stopped taking pictures and took time to talk to him. Knowing that the young man's monthly salary is less than 3,000 yuan, he has admired Fengguo Temple for a long time, and donated 150 yuan to repair the Millennium ceremony of Fengguo Temple. Don't underestimate this 150 yuan. For an ordinary working class, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea can also handle many things. When asked why he donated money, the young man smiled indifferently. Although I don't believe in Buddhism, I admire it in my heart. Buddhists' wisdom of cultivating self-cultivation and educating people to be good is worth carrying forward. My strength is very small, 90 Niu Yi Mao, just a token of my appreciation. The young man is very kind and has a calm tone, but he is one of the few detached indifference among his peers. Maybe you have a Buddha in your heart and a face like a Buddha.
They are all here. Where are you? This year, or next year, Fengguo Temple, about? Fengguo Temple is waiting for you here in the storm! And me!
