The French writer Hugo has a famous saying: "The widest thing in the world is the ocean, wider than the ocean is the sky, and wider than the sky is the human mind."

Zhang Xueliang, whose ancestral home is Haicheng, Liaoning, was born on June 3, 1901 in Zhangjiabao Village, Ejia Village, Jiujian Township, Tai'an County, Liaoning Province (formerly known as Zhanjiawopu, Sangzilin). Overall, his life was great. His implementation of the change of flags made China formally unified; the Xi'an Incident moved China from civil war to joint resistance against Japan, and to a certain extent strengthened the unity within the Chinese people and made great contributions to China's Anti-Japanese War. Indelible historical achievements.

At the age of 100, Zhang Xueliang is still refreshed, healthy and energetic. It is very valuable for a person who has experienced ups and downs and suffered hardships. So how did he maintain his health to achieve a long life?

Be open-minded. The traditional health science of the motherland believes that "if the mind is rectified, the body will be free from disease" and "anyone who wants to be disease-free must first rectify the mind." General Zhang Xueliang has been in bad luck since the September 18th Incident. His father passed away and Northeast China was lost! He was also imprisoned by Chiang Kai-shek for his patriotism and resistance to Japan, and lost his personal freedom. In the face of this disaster and blow, he was not pessimistic or disappointed. He firmly believed that he was doing the right thing and stood up straight. He firmly believed that he had justice in hand. The invaders would be defeated and the nation would be prosperous. However, in the face of Chiang Kai-shek's "control", he had no choice but to be open-minded and "don't take anything to heart." It is this open-minded and good mentality that created a good psychological foundation for his health and longevity. Just like the verse of an ancient Zen master: "There are hundreds of flowers in spring, a moon in autumn, a cool breeze in summer, and snow in winter. If there are no other things to worry about, it is a good time in the world."

Magnificent, "Cihai" The explanation in "Modern Chinese Dictionary" is: "Poise and complacency" The explanation in "Modern Chinese Dictionary" is: "Describes a pure heart and a broad mind." "An open mind comes from a person's comprehensive cultivation, including knowledge structure, ideological level, experience, moral standards, and more importantly, the ideals pursued and goals to strive for.

The most important thing about an open mind is It is necessary to have a strong sense of righteousness. Not only those who are truly educated and cultivated can be magnanimous. This should be a popular term. Magnanimity can make people be kind to honors, disgrace, setbacks, frustrations and other people's faults. Therefore, magnanimous people can do it. Maintain an optimistic attitude for a long time. As the saying goes: "A big heart can accommodate all things; a humble heart can tolerate the world's affairs; a calm heart can face changes in adversity with a smile; a calm heart can deal with emergencies calmly." "In this kind of mentality, people will become suddenly generous, let go, think openly, let nature take its course, eliminate distracting thoughts, and maintain a peaceful and pure mentality. In this way, the true energy will be harmonized, the immunity will be enhanced, and people will not easily get sick. It will naturally prolong life.

For health and longevity, for the happiness of life, and for making the world a better place, middle-aged and elderly friends should open their hearts and be open-minded people.

To be open-minded, you must first have a pure and kind heart. A person with a pure heart will naturally possess various virtues. Regarding virtues, the great British philosopher Francis Bacon said this: "People have a pure heart." The virtues are like precious spices, which will emit the strongest fragrance when burned in the fire. Just as bad qualities can be revealed in happiness, so it is in adversity that the best qualities are revealed. "A virtuous person has great ambitions in his chest. Even when he is in his twilight years, he is still young and ambitious. A virtuous person is persevering in starting a business. Even if he faces the end of the road, he still does not change his original intention and talks and laughs with ease. A virtuous person is happy. Helping others in times of need, even if they encounter various obstacles, they still have no hesitation and are willing to help others; a virtuous person dares to speak out for justice, and even if he is in danger, he still insists on the truth...

To be open-minded, you should also Have a broad mind. In this way, you will not be pretentious and arrogant; you will not be repaying kindness with duplicity; you will not be making a fuss out of trivial matters.

People should be open-minded! Be open-minded and pursue a meaningful and happy life. Such a life is a happy life, a happy life, and a healthy life.
