This article is a bit profound. In life, you should strive to realize your own value and pursue your own happiness. However, under the conditions of developing the socialist market economy, some people often regard material wealth as the only criterion for measuring the value of life, taking wealth as pleasure, wealth as noble, and even doing whatever it takes to get rich. So, does a person truly realize the value of his life if he is materially rich? The answer is no. The value of life has different connotations under different historical and social conditions. Different people will have different understandings of the value of life. Marxism believes that value is something that has positive significance and can satisfy certain needs of individuals or society. It arises from people's practical activities and includes both material and spiritual values; it has both personal and social characteristics. A person's value is not only reflected in the degree to which he or she meets his own needs or the amount of wealth he possesses, but more importantly, in the size of his contribution to society. Human essence is the sum of all social relations. If a person wants to truly realize his or her own value, he must work hard to contribute to the development and progress of society. From this, happiness in life lies not only in material wealth, but also in spiritual wealth. People need to have some spirit. Being rich materially does not mean being rich spiritually. Whether a person is spiritually rich or not depends crucially on his moral quality and spiritual realm. Those who have high moral character, far-sightedness, and are committed to promoting social development and progress, even if they are not necessarily very rich materially, are rich spiritually because they can be recognized and respected by others and society. In contrast, those who are narrow-minded, selfish, profit-oriented, and do nothing to benefit the world, although they can achieve material wealth, but because they rarely think of repaying others and society, it can easily lead to conflicts between themselves and the world around them. He is poor in spirit. Material poverty can be changed through hard work, but spiritual poverty is often fatal. There are many such examples at home and abroad: some wealthy businessmen, no matter how much material wealth they once had, once they lose their spiritual support and fall into extreme spiritual emptiness, they can easily go astray and even lead to tragedy in their lives. The pursuit of personal value and the pursuit of social value, the pursuit of material wealth and the pursuit of spiritual wealth should be unified. Marx once said: Once "ideas" leave "interests", they will definitely make themselves look bad. Poverty is not socialism. The fundamental purpose of socialism is to enable the broad masses of the people to live a prosperous and happy life. To this end, we must let go and let the vitality of all labor, knowledge, technology, management and capital burst out, and let all sources of creating social wealth fully flow to benefit the people. At the same time, socialism is a society of all-round development and all-round progress, and is committed to promoting the all-round development of people. A nation cannot be poor either materially or spiritually. Only a nation that is both materially and spiritually rich can have strong vitality and cohesion; a person's life can only have value and meaning if he insists on pursuing the unity of material wealth and spiritual wealth. , can we obtain true happiness and achieve all-round development. The following is the material for the college entrance examination composition: material and spiritual happiness (2010-05-26 23:35:35) Reprinted tags: composition material composition material material and spiritual happiness The boss's happiness review question conception education classification: college entrance examination composition read below Materials, composition according to requirements. (60 points) In 1960, there was a great disparity between the rich and the poor in the United States, and social contradictions were prominent. One day, a TV reporter named Robert captured two sets of scenes: the protagonist in one group was the general manager of a company, who was overloaded with work in the office. Although he had a neat suit, he looked haggard and tired; The protagonist of the other group is a cleaner who works in an office building. He wears blue canvas clothes, which are shabby but not dirty. I saw him cleaning the garbage and humming country songs, looking very contented. The general manager is a typical representative of the rich in America, while the janitor is a typical representative of the poor in America. After these two sets of scenes were broadcast on TV, a miracle happened: many poor people no longer hated the rich, and began to feel joy and happiness; actually, many rich people began to envy the lives of the poor.

Words from the person involved: Let Robert reveal the secret: "In the past, many lenses were used to focus on the assets of the rich and the suffering of the poor, and contradictions emerged. I will use the lens Focusing on the hearts of the rich and the poor, the rich look tired because they have too many desires; the poor look complacent because they live a simple life. The rich and the poor are not just about material things, but also about happiness. "Excerpted from "The People" in 2010. Author Shen Yueming of the 1st issue of "Digest" (2), the key point in the examination room is that the quality of comprehension cannot only be compared with material things. In the past, many cameras were accustomed to focusing on the assets of the rich and the suffering of the poor, and contradictions emerged. The reporter focused the camera on the hearts of the rich and the poor. The rich looked tired because they had too many desires; the poor looked complacent because they lived a simple life. The best intention is not only about material things, but also about happiness. Applicable themes: material and spiritual, and happiness. Materials from a different perspective: 1. A basket of food, a ladle of drink, Yan Hui, who lives in a shady alley and does not change his joy. 2. Yushu earthquake in Qinghai (it is difficult to use popular materials well, it is recommended to avoid cutting-edge examples). Cars rattling, wind rustling, pedestrians Looking from afar, everyone is worried. Mountains and rivers send each other off, the Xining Bridge is not visible in the dust, and the will to help thousands of miles is like a knife! With life waiting in front of them and the urging of the country behind them, these volunteers chose the journey without hesitation. 3. Cao Dewang, Cao Hui and his son, Huang Furong, Chen Guangbiao, Cai Rendanzhou 4. The famous writer Alai refused to appear on the "Hundred Forum" 5. Why are the per capita happiness index so high in poor Nepal, Bhutan, Laos, and Chile? Why are the suicide rates in economically developed countries like Japan and South Korea rising? 6. The spiritual rich list of the famous spiritual trainer Lin A - see the reposted blog post (when I followed the Xinyi Brothers, I read the exclusive interview with Lin A in "Wuhan City Circle", which was specially used to collect negative materials) How to use the Xinyi Brothers, What are the negative materials: Huang Guangyu’s imprisonment, Liu Xiaoqing’s tax evasion, Shi Yuzhu’s “false credit”, and Rong Zhijian’s resignation. Example 1: Brothers Sun Shuilin and Sun Donglin are of course symbols of integrity and morality, but the word “faithfulness” alone cannot explain them. Value for all. Because of some bad elements in traditional Chinese culture, "pseudo-integrity" and "pseudo-morality" are everywhere in our country. I remember that when the famous Shi Yuzhu "returned to the world" to do melatonin, the first thing he did was to pay off his debts and package himself as a "model of integrity". In fact, his purpose was to gain the trust of the bank. Therefore, it is not surprising that the "tax evasion" scandal was later exposed. But brothers Sun Shuilin and Sun Donglin are different. Their fiduciary behavior was highlighted by the disaster of the elder brother's family of five, and even more by the younger brother's initiative to take over. The Chinese believe in "paying off all debts after death." However, when all five members of Sun Shuilin's family died, not only was his debt not cleared, but in the absence of an account, the migrant workers were paid according to their conscience. This shows that the actions of brothers Sun Shuilin and Sun Donglin were proactive actions from the heart, rather than faith for the sake of faith. This kind of inner faith, responsibility and kindness are the most precious treasures of our society. Example 2: Huang Guangyu has been named "China's richest man" several times. However, after achieving commercial success, he had no time and unwillingness to go back and build his own spiritual mansion and moral sky. Instead, he once indulged in the collusion between government and businessmen and the long-sleeved dance in an unethical environment. Because of his poor background and "original sin" mentality, although Huang Guangyu is worth tens of billions, his soul is poor. There are many people in China like Huang Guangyu who have huge wealth but are very poor at heart. Such rich people cannot be considered truly rich. But our society is now obsessed with such rich people. This is not to say that it is a "failure" of the era. In a society where economic wealth is continuously accumulated but spiritual wealth is not publicized, many abnormal social problems will occur. 7. Master Cheng Yen's "Jing Si Aphorisms" The rich among the rich, the poor among the rich, the rich among the poor, and the poor among the poor are the four kinds of rich and poor life that Master often mentioned.

During the morning meeting, the Master warned that poor people are sinking in all kinds of evil and misery, but if they are content, they can turn misery into happiness. If they only have abundant wealth but do not know how to make good use of it, they will be tempted by it. , the soul is never satisfied. (1) The rich among the rich are rich in material things and rich in love. If an entrepreneur starts a business and stabilizes the family life of many people, he will also use his excess wealth to contribute to society and the people. Know how to use tangible things to help others, and you will be truly rich if your soul is rich. If a rich man with abundant financial resources can also be compassionate and try his best to help some unfortunate people in society, he will definitely feel very fulfilled in his heart and spiritually, and then he will also become a "rich among the rich". people. (2) The poor among the rich, "one thing is missing nine" - if you have ten, you want one hundred, if you have ten thousand, you want one hundred thousand... because you never feel that it is not enough; not enough is lack, which is the poverty of the soul. . The Master explained that the poor among the rich are not only reluctant to give, but also lack affection and love. They are afraid that others will ask for help from them, so they are alienated from others. Therefore, they not only feel that they have insufficient tangible property, but also lack affection and love. The poor are really pitiable! If you feel spiritually empty and depressed, no matter how much wealth you have, whether you live in a luxurious villa, drive an imported car, eat delicacies from the mountains and seas or a Manchu-Han banquet, or wear expensive clothes and diamond jewelry, you will still feel that all these are boring and meaningless. Meaningless, even very boring, lonely and painful. These people are the typical "poor among the rich." (3) The rich among the poor are the human bodhisattvas I see every day - they are not rich in life, but they are rich in their willingness to do and devote themselves. Although they work hard every day to maintain their lives, they still do their best Help society and help the poorer people. The master took environmental volunteers as an example. Most of them are unknown ordinary people in the city, or old people with low education and limited literacy. However, they are dedicated to helping others and work hard to recycle and sort. Every move and every move is for the sake of the cause. Make the most meaningful contribution to the world. "Although the recycling income is very small, they are full of love and can form a powerful force." If a person is very poor in material or wealth, but if he can do good deeds, even if his ability to give is very limited, he can still do it. Feel very rich spiritually and become a "rich among poor" person. (4) As for the poor among the poor, they not only live in poverty, but are also mentally distressed and always want to rely on the help of others. "A Bodhisattva saves people by first providing benefit." The master taught that for the poor, one can first alleviate their suffering and help with their source of livelihood, but more importantly, they must use pure and good Dharma to guide them and gradually guide them. Educate their minds in the direction of goodness, generate dignity and self-confidence, and believe that they can one day help others. 8. The popular drama "The Happiness of the Boss" and Bi Shumin's "Deciphering the Code of Happiness". The TV series "The Happiness of the Boss", starring and produced by Fan Wei, was launched on CCTV. The ratings on that day were as high as 5.03%, setting a record for CCTV this year. The highest number of prime-time premiere episodes in history. The touching laughter and tears in the play, as well as the simple and happy eldest son, deeply shocked our hearts. Whether the four brothers and sisters of Mr. Fu are happy is also as thought-provoking as a guessing game. In the TV series, Boss Fu's four younger siblings include a real estate tycoon, a government fanatic, a house slave, and a stock madman. They are all figures with glamorous appearances, but their lives are full of pressure, tension, confusion, and meaninglessness. Why is this? This is because what they seek to satisfy are pathological desires. This desire that is far away from the origin of life is like a bottomless pit that can never be satisfied. Jiajia has a famous saying in the play, saying that those who pursue external things are slaves, and no matter how glamorous they are, they are unhappy. It is precisely because of the confusion and emptiness in their hearts that Boss Fu's four younger siblings lack happiness and satisfaction, and that they pursue power and money that does not belong to them by any means. This is a kind of neurotic and morbid desire. No matter how much power and money you have, it cannot fill the gap of desire, but instead creates a cocoon for yourself. 9. Qian Xuesen Spirit and matter are the unity of opposites and are inseparable. We miss the spiritual outlook of the people in the 1950s and 1960s, but we never want to return to the material life of that era. Similarly, when we live in a relatively materially rich year today, how much people long for the spiritual home they once had! Having a material foundation can promote spiritual civilization, because when the economy is abundant, people can seek knowledge and study, be well-educated, and be charitable. . But material abundance can also easily bring enjoyment, comparison, and hatred. At this time, a good social environment and spiritual guidance are very much needed. According to Qian Xuesen's family background, he can enjoy a life of fine clothes and fine food, and can even do scientific research work that is envied by countless people on the other side of the ocean.

But he chose to serve the motherland, and it was a long journey to break through all kinds of obstruction and persecution. When he integrated into the motherland and saw the great men of that generation leading by example and the hundreds of millions of people struggling selflessly for the construction of New China, Mr. Qian was infected by the spirit of China's leaders and people. Now, he has infected countless of us. 10. Shen Hao's Diary "There is a plot in the movie "Wrangler": Xu Lingjun's father is a billionaire in the United States. When he returned to China, he wanted his son to go abroad to inherit the property, re-understand the "value of life", and live a "happy life". Life", however, when he heard Xu Lingjun talk about his own growth experience and saw that his son had such a rich spiritual life, he became envious and felt that although his material life was very rich, he was not happy. Therefore, he had to express his feelings sentimentally. Admit: "In terms of property, I am rich; emotionally, I am poor, to be precise, I am a beggar." Thinking about it carefully, it is not surprising that the value of life is not determined by possessions. Determined by the amount of material wealth. If the spirit is empty, no matter how much material wealth is, we will not be able to experience the true happiness of life. Of course, when we say that people cannot live without a noble spiritual life, we do not mean that we can do without necessary material life. An important purpose of carrying out the four modernizations is to continuously improve people's material living standards. However, this rich material life needs to be created with a revolutionary spirit. Money dreams, this kind of people should be inspired and educated by the lament that billionaires are "beggars". Here are a few articles from the third year of high school 1 Today is the time for science, rationality and everything, why were the original works of modern art, but we are. The protectionist tendencies of the mind that tend to collapse and destroy impulses can be captured unequivocally. These works are more or less irrational or focus on irrationality... Today is a period when scientific rationality rules everything. Why can we capture the spiritual trends without any nonsense in the modernist art works of the rising sun? To disintegrate, damage drives the upward direction. These works are more or less irrational or concerned with irrationality, and at the same time they despise tradition, destroying everything and replacing it with originality and hysteria. After the mid-18th century, the development of science continued to accelerate, and the process of social progress also accelerated. However, the human spiritual world cannot accelerate development like the material world. The development of the spiritual world is slow, so it is necessary to break through bottlenecks and move forward. Various phenomena in current society reflect the serious misalignment between the material world and the spiritual world, and the serious disharmony between the two. First of all, we must realize the role that the material world plays in promoting the spiritual world. Man's spiritual world is a response to the material world. Productivity determines production relations, social form, and the level of human transformation of nature. The spiritual time is formed by analyzing the material world. The spiritual world is based on the material world, and the progress of human society is changing everything, including our spiritual world. Secondly, the spiritual world has a counterproductive effect on the material world. The spiritual world determines people's world outlook, outlook on life, and values, and all of this will be revealed in people's transformation of the natural world and the relationship between people. The spiritual world modernized people's so-called model, which corresponds to the modern material world. It is impossible to make great changes in the material world beyond the scope of control of the spiritual world. The material world must develop simultaneously with the spiritual world. If the spiritual world is too advanced, the material world will wear away the advanced part; if the spiritual world is too lagging, then the material world will lose its guidance. Today, when technology increasingly plays a dominant role, traditional humanities have been relatively in decline. The distortion of modern human nature reflects the lagging behind of the spiritual world. Maybe we should do something. However, would you be willing to stop progressing in the real material world to wait for the illusory spiritual world? 2 Most people think that enrichment in life means prosperity. Seeing someone else's door, LiGuCheng, that's the flow of oil. But all these ideas are one-sided, is it really rich?... Most people in life think that being rich means being rich. Look at Gates and Li Jiacheng, they are really rich. But these views are only one-sided after all. So what is real wealth? It is undeniable that being rich actually means being rich and being able to buy a car or a house. However, people still don’t know the lives of those rich people? There are always reports in newspapers: a certain gangster was commissioned to assassinate a billionaire one day; the children of a certain rich man were kidnapped by gangsters, and were eventually torn up and abandoned in the woods.

For example, on January 22, 2006, Li Haicang, vice chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce and a well-known private entrepreneur, was shot and killed in his hometown of Yuncheng, Shanxi Province. On February 12, Wenzhou billionaire Zhou Zubao was assassinated by a group of assailants in front of his home. It can be said that this kind of news is commonplace. It can be seen that the life of the rich is actually uncomfortable. I am terrified all day long, fearing that I will be shot dead by gangsters on a certain day of a certain month and year. This timid psychology often causes them to age prematurely and die in depression. And why are some people called rich even though their families are poor? These people all have one thing in common, that is, they are all very, very happy. What they are rich in is spirit, not material things. On the side of the road in my hometown, I often see a few cart drivers gathering together to play poker. They often fight over the landowner fight for 20 cents a game. People who win 1 or 2 yuan will laugh very happily, while people who lose a few cents will be a little depressed. There are also a few very tired people who will lie on the trolley, cover their heads with straw hats, and take a nap to feel comfortable. This may make some people laugh, but if you think about it, they are really rich in spirit. As long as these people do not suffer from any serious illness, they can often live to be eighty or ninety years old. Now, I find that the sky turns out to be very fair and just. When he gives a person poverty, he will also give him a very precious wealth - spiritual wealth. It is better to have spiritual wealth than to have material wealth. So, now, I can proudly and loudly say to everyone: "Friends, I am also a very rich person, because I have a lot of wealth." 1 Beginning 2 Write spiritual thoughts from a philosophical perspective Matter (need to have a new view) 3 Discuss both (need to have a new view) 4 Summarize personal views
