The German philosopher Nietzsche once famously said, "When a man knows what he lives for, he can endure any pain." What is the meaning of life to yourself? Keeping a healthy body and mind as much as possible is the premise, and ultimately we must cultivate our own soul. As we grow older, our bodies will slowly decay, but our souls will continue to evolve and sublimate. Kazuo inamori wrote in Living Law: "The only purpose of life is to perfect our minds and purify our souls. When we leave this world, we should take away a better soul than when we were born. " In the book "The Road Few People Walk", Stoke Parker also has a similar argument-the road to maturity is difficult and tortuous, and only a few people can go forward bravely and hone their hearts by constantly solving difficulties and problems on the road of life. The maturity of one's mind is God's will and requirement.

All these arguments are not about material things, but about the importance of spirit and soul to one's life journey. Nowadays, people's pursuit of power, status, money and reputation is hard to overcome, and China people's values are becoming more and more single. The yardstick to measure a person's value is mainly money and status. If you have money and status, then you will be respected and admired by most people. If not, most people will not take you seriously, and even often show snobbery in front of you. No matter how talented and knowledgeable you are, no matter how noble your character is, you can't change these people's attitude towards you. Even they are saying, "If you have the ability and skills, or if your idea is correct, why don't you have what you need in your pocket?" In the materialistic era, the scale of value has become so single!

Under this value scale, a strict division of groups and strata has been formed. Many people who reach the summit have their own natural psychological advantages and think they are high-value groups. They are naturally at the top of the biological chain and food chain, maintaining psychological advantages for people with low status, even dismissing them and bossing them around. This is the so-called "killing people at the first level." I think this is the dross culture in China culture, and the core is the idea of "official standard". A friend of mine told me about his experience in this field. Leaders don't take him seriously, always give him too much work at will, but never consider his interests and demands, and often scold him. In essence, this is a willfulness of power. But this friend's weak personality and flattering personality are also one of the important factors of his current predicament.

? The general secretary has repeatedly stated that it is necessary to vigorously carry forward China's excellent traditional culture. The implication is that the dross culture should be abandoned. In this materialistic era, the culture with status, power and money as the only measure of value is getting worse and worse. But I think it's a dross culture. In the new era, all kinds of advanced ideas are vast, and people should be encouraged to have different values. Money and status are not the only options. When people desperately pursue these two things, but there is no spiritual energy to support them, people have no other ideas and can only compete cruelly and involved like animals. But have you ever wondered where this cruel competition and involution will go? Most likely, people are distracted and indifferent, human nature is selfish and moral collapse, society is slow and cohesion is reduced ... this is what everyone living in this society does not want to see.

? What kind of values should we have? Personally, I think there should be values that advocate spiritual civilization and material civilization go hand in hand; Let a hundred schools of thought contend and a hundred flowers blossom. Everyone has the freedom to pursue the value of his spiritual life. We should have the values of providing for the elderly, providing for the elderly and being young; We should always care about the people we love and learn the values of happiness and nutrition from them; We should have the values of unremitting efforts to improve our physical and mental health, mind and soul; We should have such values: it is our duty to promote the continuous civilization and progress of this society; It is necessary to contribute to the values of promoting the positive energy of society and finally practice the 24-word socialist core values in a down-to-earth manner. ...

For myself, with the passage of time, I don't want my face to get old, my soul to become obscene, and it really becomes dross and garbage. The ultimate goal of my life is to improve my mind, perfect my personality and purify my soul. Because this is a truly mature person, the call of God in his heart!
