Mr. Yang Jiang left many famous sayings in his life. It is a pity that I did not understand these famous sayings until I was in my 30s.

That’s because “I don’t know what the article means when I first read it, but when I read it again, I already understand the meaning of the article.”

Only after experiencing it can people truly understand:

We always run for too much,

things that are out of reach.

But I forgot,

The real happiness in life,

is just the warmth of dim lights and the abundance of firewood, rice, oil and salt...

< p> My marriage with Zenan turned red light. In the quarrels again and again, the gap between us became wider and wider. My inflated desire was infinitely magnified in the comparison. I saw my classmates, friends, and colleagues. After buying a high-end house, buying an imported car, and going abroad several times a year, I began to complain about Zenan, complaining that he didn't know how to make money and only focused on his favorite experiments. He couldn't make money and live a better life like other husbands. , I was dissatisfied at the beginning and then had the idea of ????divorcing. I was not willing to live an ordinary life with Zenan. I felt that I should live a better life.

When a person's heart begins to be seriously materialistic, feelings will become cheap in her heart.

Seeing that I was very determined to divorce, Zenan didn’t say anything else, and asked the lawyer to find me and sign the divorce agreement. I picked up the agreement and looked at it, and I saw that the house and car were all left to me. I, Zenan, left home by myself. I cried very sadly at that time. I don’t know whether my sad tears were from guilt or self-blame, but they did not affect my determination to divorce.

Since the divorce agreement was signed, I have never seen Zenan again. He seemed to have disappeared and left his original unit. Later, I heard from insiders that he went abroad to do scientific research projects.

I started working hard and took several professional certificates. I left my original employer and went to work in a foreign company. I met many outstanding people and felt that they all had better conditions than Zenan.

During a business event, I met Peng Qi, a boss who owns his own company. He is worth tens of millions, wears famous brands, and imports cars. I just want to live the life of a rich person. That is who I am. The life I wanted, I looked at Peng Qi walking towards me with envious eyes.

Later in my relationship with Peng Qi, I learned that Peng Qi was divorced and currently single, with no plans to remarry for the time being.

Peng Qi meets my criteria for a rich person. After we get together, we can indeed afford a lot of luxury goods and live in the big house I expected.

Isn’t this everything I wanted?

Although we have all the material things, Peng Qi rarely comes back.

In the dead of night, I was sleeping alone on a high-end big bed. Facing the empty big house, loneliness came to me, and I burst into tears.

Isn’t this the life I want?

Why should I cry?

It turns out that I thought of Ze Nan, the man who took me seriously, the man who made me feel the warmth.

Do I regret it? It didn't seem to be the case, so I burst into tears.

The house that Zenan left for me has always been empty, and I haven’t entered it for 2 years.

I began to miss the days when we were together. Although we didn’t have a lot of money, Zenan could give me inner peace.

Because of my own greed and vanity, I have gradually forced myself to be where I am today.

I think, no matter how miserable my life is, I have chosen the road myself, and I have to walk it on my knees.

After I sorted myself out, my current boyfriend and I had a complete showdown. I left that big house and the big house I wanted to live in.

I returned to the small house that Zenan left for me and renovated it, making it warm and simple.

Because of my own fault, I lost the man who loves me the most. I don’t want to have any extravagant hopes in this life. It’s a kind of punishment for myself.

In my 30s, I finally realized that having material things that money can buy does not mean that you have opened the door to happiness.

Finally, I would like to conclude with the words of Mr. Yang Jiang.

Only by taking the path of your choice and not choosing the easy path can you have your true self.
