Actually, it's not. A person's life is just a period of time borrowed from time, and people are adding and subtracting all the time. If you want to increase the delicate roses in your garden, you must reduce the beautiful lilies in the garden because space is limited; If you want to increase your wealth and get bright pearls, you must risk your life to dive into the deep sea. This time, you may lose your life. Between addition and subtraction, we should think about a question of value and unworthiness. If it is for the truth, it is to pursue it even if you exhaust your life energy; If it is for personal benefit, don't be too persistent. When it's time to let go, let go and give yourself inner peace.
Life is like a big house. When I first moved in, I always wanted to buy good furniture, just like some people worked hard for fame, interests and so-called ideals. Finally, I found that the house was full and there was no room for me to stand. So sad! Therefore, people should learn to add and subtract, supplement what they need in time, and subtract what they don't need from life. When people were young, they devoted themselves to learning, worked tirelessly, constantly learned knowledge from this world, and lived an additive life. However, the more material you get, the easier it is for people to get confused. So when you are old, learn to live a life of subtraction, abandon friends you don't want to make, and refuse things you don't want to do. Only in this way can you really be puzzled, obedient and arbitrary.
Life is a long journey. When we first started on the road, the flowers and plants along the roadside and the strange peaks and rocks made us feel novel, so we packed all our favorite things into our backpacks, and the more we carried them, the more tired we became. When we are about to be crushed, in order to move on, we should reduce the unnecessary things in our backpacks and go into battle lightly. Only in this way can we go into battle lightly and reach our destination. It can be seen that subtracting life is a kind of wisdom and a realm of life.
In this fierce competition and materialistic era, if we learn the addition and subtraction of life, we can sit tight, laugh at honor and disgrace, and live calmly.
