Two people looked out of the window. One saw the mud on the ground, while the other saw the stars in the sky.
With different perspectives, you see the world differently. And we all look at the world selectively. Optimistic people often see the positive and beautiful side of the world, and pessimistic people often see the dirty and ugly side of the world. But whether they are optimistic people or pessimistic people, what they see is The world you arrive may not be complete.
Because any complete thing contains at least two sides. Both sides are real, but people always have limitations. It is often easy to only see one side and ignore the other, so that they cannot see the other side. Find out the whole story.
As ordinary people, we all like beautiful people and things. This is human nature, but it is easy to fall into the limitation of binary opposition thinking - "stars" are "good" to us , "mud" is "bad" to us. When thinking about judgment issues with this kind of binary opposition, it is easy to go to extremes - liking "stars" and hating "mud", so that we fall into the wrong path. , favoring one end and completely rejecting the other. Most of our dissatisfaction with ourselves and others, various injustices in society, and conflicts between people come from this.
So, what would happen if we changed our thinking, or looked at this issue from another perspective?
If we look at everything from a natural perspective, we will find: stars in the sky + mud on the ground = a complete world.
Nature shows no preference and treats all things equally. From a natural point of view, there is no "good" or "bad". A grain of sand, a stone, a leaf, and all the creatures you can touch around you, no matter how small or great, are in the great whole of nature. , all exist equally in the form of life. For nature, everything is alive, everything is equal, and everything is natural.
Existence is reasonable, everything has value, and everyone’s life is of great significance. Without night, day would not exist; without suffering, we would not grow; without failure, we would not learn valuable experience and achieve success. Light emerges from darkness, and dawn breaks from darkness. No matter who you are, no matter what your identity is, what experiences you have, whether you are a good person or a bad person, everyone is equally important.
Everyone will experience dark moments. Darkness makes us suffer, and darkness also makes us grow. After experiencing darkness, many people have been shaken by the light and kindness of this world. They only see the pain caused by darkness, but do not see the opportunities hidden in the darkness to help us grow. There are good things within every bad thing, and there are bad things within every good thing. Find the good among the bad, and pay attention to the bad among the good. Then we can transcend the so-called bad things and become a better version of ourselves. Looking for light and hope in the darkness, paying attention to the hidden dangers of darkness in the light, not getting carried away when you are proud, and not feeling depressed when you are frustrated, this is more important than anything else.
What the human heart desires is toward love and light; what the human heart desires is toward darkness and evil, all in one thought. The key lies in our choice. When your thinking changes, the world changes. Why do we experience pain? The answer is: We find light through darkness, shine brightly, and glorify destiny. The more frustrated you are in pain, the stronger you become, discover the light of hope hidden in the darkness, transcend the darkness, and become a stronger self.
There are shadows in the day and the moon in the night. There is darkness in light, and there is light in darkness. Only by transcending light and darkness can we understand what love is. Only by transcending the dualistic thinking in the brain can we reach the other side of our true heart.
There are many kinds of love in this world, but love is never a definition. You are love, the earth is love, the universe is love, billions of stars, flowers, trees, mountains and rivers are all love. All things come to one, and all paths lead to the same destination. Ultimately, they all point to the word "love", and love comes from the original heart.
Every human being has a pure heart in his heart and a sword of justice in his hand. However, as we grow up, some people's original intentions are thrown into the sea of ??desire, and the sword of justice has become rusty.
The three-word expression of my true heart is "truth, goodness and beauty", which can also be understood as "the true self". The original heart contains all the beautiful parts of human nature. The original heart is the essence of human beings, the essence of the heart. The original heart is the original intention that we had at the beginning and was lost by many people in the process of growing up.
True is the foundation of goodness, and goodness is the true direction. If there is truth but not kindness, it will hurt people and it is easy to go astray; if there is kindness but not truth, it will be hypocrisy and false kindness. The so-called "beauty", "beauty" comes from sincerity, "good" means kindness, and true kindness is the unity of sincerity and kindness, which is "beauty" itself.
"Truth" means following and releasing the truest inner feelings. To be your true self means to be loyal to your own heart, accept yourself as you are, and present yourself in your most original state. It is not enough to be true to yourself. At the same time, you must use your conscience to point the way so that you can take the right path.
"Good deeds leave no trace." True kindness does not make people feel embarrassed. It is often not ostentatious, noisy, and even has no trace of giving, alms, or mercy. Instead, it gives others the most considerate, comfortable, and comfortable care and warmth. Even the weakest person with the most humble status must be respected enough. Many times, although many people have good intentions, they tend to do bad things and burn the self-esteem of others. Although there is no malice, and it is indeed for the good of others, it makes others feel that they have lost face.
When sincerity and kindness are united, it is true kindness.
True kindness makes people feel no psychological burden. The most important thing about caring for a person is not to use his self-esteem as the price of accepting goodwill. It is precisely to take his dignity into consideration and know how to help others silently and considerately while helping others. True kindness is to sincerely consider others and find ways to reduce the pressure on others, rather than using kindness as the highest point of morality to increase the psychological burden on others. As the writer Liang Xiaosheng once said: "Kindness is not something you do for others to see. It is a pleasant and natural thing. Just like sometimes, kindness is for peace of mind."
True kindness , it is to do good without raising the banner of kindness, it is the scenery of the moon, and it is not deceiving in the dark room, it is to accumulate virtue without being seen by others, and goodwill is like a clear stream. True kindness comes from the heart, which can be summed up in one sentence - kindness that is natural, sincere, and willing to consider others. When you see a child crying sadly, you will naturally feel compassion for him. When you see a trash can that has been overturned, you will naturally know how to right it. Before this, I had no intention of doing good deeds. After the incident happened, I did it naturally as I felt it. This is what Mr. Wang Yangming calls "conscience". Each of us has such instinct of conscience - gentleness, kindness, sincerity, trust, consideration... These are the most beautiful qualities of us.
Everyone has the most beautiful side in their hearts, and everyone is relentlessly pursuing beauty. In fact, beauty is always in our hearts, and each of us can become the beauty itself.
Beauty is truth, goodness, and love. Sincerity, authenticity, and sincerity originate from truth; kindness, caring, and altruism are good; kindness, innocence, and unconditional nourishment and giving without asking for anything in return are love. Beauty is the sum of all the gentle and positive energy in the world, it is truth, goodness and beauty itself, it is the kindness of thinking about others, it is sincere trust in each other, it is the warmth that comes when the time is right, it is the gentleness and kindness that naturally arises in the heart, and it is the original brilliance of human nature.
To find the lost original heart is to return to nature; to carry forward the truth and kindness in the original heart, the best aspects of human nature to conscience; to choose to believe in beauty, see beauty, and collect those things in life In the beautiful moments, when what you think, say, and do are completely consistent, it is called the unity of knowledge and action. The unity of knowledge and action is also "living in the moment."
When you look at the world from a different perspective and look at everyone around you from the perspective of love in your heart, you will find that: everything in this world is so beautiful. Everything you experience, good or bad, helps you remember the love in your heart and the real you. Choose to see the good, believe in the good, and you will eventually reap the good. Always keep a bright heart. The light in your heart will always point you in the right direction.
The most virtuous people repay hatred with virtue and turn enemies into friends, not because they are weak, nor because they do not know the power of strength, but because they know how to feel the heart, and they know that everyone has human nature. The most beautiful aspect is, as Mr. Wang Yangming said, "Everyone has a conscience." Conscience is the original heart, which is the most beautiful part of human nature that each of us has.
Use the beauty in your heart to illuminate people's hearts, nourish yourself, and heal others. Love others with love for yourself, use the light of thinking to radiate your own unique energy - to achieve beauty, and unite knowledge and action with a beautiful heart. Focus on all the beautiful people and things in the world, let yourself exude a beautiful magnetic field, and attract more beautiful things to you. Use the beauty in your own heart to arouse the beauty in others' hearts, and carry forward the best aspects of human nature.
People should change their attitude towards life to adapt to society, but not be flattened by society; be able to understand others with tolerance, but not force everyone to understand themselves; not be trapped in the heart of joy, anger, sorrow and joy , the ups and downs are calm. Easy to pick up, easy to put down, easy to see. A truly strong person is one who still chooses to believe in the light after suffering hardships and experiencing darkness.
People with truly bright hearts will not be assimilated by the darkness in life. Instead, they will become more determined in the beauty of human nature and regard love as a belief; their hearts will not change due to the blows in life. If you become more and more indifferent, you will become softer and softer. They know that "routes win people's hearts" but still choose to treat others sincerely. They know that evil can bring benefits but still stick to their inner nobility.
Knowing the world but not being worldly is the kindest maturity.
