"Living is not an end, but living well."
This is the famous saying of the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates. Different people may have different understandings of this sentence. After all, there is no measurable standard for "living" and "living well".
As far as my personal understanding is concerned, "living" means living-this person is really not dead, but has lost his soul and dignity, and the rest is just living quietly. Just like Qin Hui, the famous monarch of national subjugation in history and the emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, he was humiliated in the northern country and lived only a skin.
So, "live well"? I think the core of "living well" must be living with soul and dignity. "Living well" certainly includes material things, but living luxuriously is not necessarily "living well". Some people may be poor in material life, but rich in spiritual world, and they can also run a very poor life freely and happily.
There is a very good saying on the internet: "I don't want much, a glass of water, a piece of bread and a flower;" If you are extravagant, I want you to pour water, cut bread and arrange flowers. "To turn an ordinary day into a poem is to' live well'. -That's great.
@ Wonderful? I have always thought that a person's life has two meanings: doing something and having fun. The meaning of life disappears when you can't do something and enjoy it. This may be "alive", but it is not "living well". For decades, I have personally understood and positioned life in this way! ——YZS
@YZS？ Dear teacher, I have to refute your words. Your realm, pattern and great wisdom have been leading us. Isn't this the best way? At the same time, we also enjoy your spiritual wealth. You must be happy! Because you are a person with great love! So you live better than most people! -That's great.
"Living is not an end, living well is"-a famous sentence. Seeing this sentence, I immediately thought of yesterday's online learning book "Live a Happy Life"-teaching us how to live a good life, establishing a correct view of happiness, everyone's talent in live high, everyone's advantages in live high, and feeling happiness from the heart. I think this kind of life is very good. To live a good life, besides thinking, the execution of action is half the way to happiness. -Linlin
Living is not an end, living well is. -golden sentence.
A high-quality lifestyle, love of reading must be the basic configuration. This reading includes not only text reading, but also humanistic reading. In short, it is to read the world with your heart. Reading, reading people, reading society. People who are attentive will always draw energy from reading, turn it into the accumulation of their own lives, and cultivate and grow into a person with a thick life. Based on this knowledge, we are all happy if we practice this lifestyle and live a good life. -Indifference to inner peace
