If a person’s soul is not in himself, where would it be?

The writer said that many people are like this when it comes to external temptations. When they see money, their souls fall on money; when they see power, their souls fall on power; when they see reputation, their souls fall on it. The soul falls on reputation; once it sees beauty, the soul falls on beauty. Their souls wander around all day long, losing their own home.

How can we let our soul return to our own body and our own home?

He was born in Bulgaria. When he was a teenager, he already knew that he had the blood of the Turkish nation flowing through him.

He asked his father, why don’t we go back to our motherland?

My father said, it’s not yet time.

When he was 13 years old, his father sent him to a weightlifting gym. Because the road was bumpy and difficult to navigate, his father carried him on his back all the way. When we arrived at the weightlifting hall, my father said, son, when you finish practicing, dad will take you back to your hometown.

This was the first time he came into contact with weightlifting equipment. Under the guidance of the coach, he tried to lift it several times. Due to improper movements, he sprained his wrist. When he grabbed the equipment again, it hurt to the bone.

When he got home, he said to his father, Dad, I won’t practice anymore.

The father asked, why?

He touched his wrist and said, it’s too painful, I can’t bear it.

The father looked at his red and swollen hands, found some salt water, and washed him, but never spoke.

The next morning, while he was still sleeping, he was pulled up by his father. He didn't want to go, but his father carried him on his back and walked out.

When he arrived at the weightlifting hall, he had to endure the pain and train. After practicing a few times, he sat on a chair to rest. When the coach asked, he said that his wrist hurt or that he had just practiced. He dealt with it like this for several days, so he looked relaxed.

My father saw the signs. After that, his father carried him to the weightlifting hall and stopped leaving. Because of his father's existence, he cannot be lazy.

My father came every day, and he discovered something. Since the weightlifting hall is open for training, there are usually many spectators. When the visitors saw my father, they all gave him discriminatory looks. My father is short, like a dwarf. He inherited his father's genes. Even though he is 13 years old, he looks like he is only seven or eight years old. However, he is a child and not as noticeable as his father.

But my father sat firmly against the wall, turning a blind eye to those piercing eyes. The son walked up to his father and whispered, Dad, do you feel those eyes? The father said "Yeah" and said, "You practice your own business and don't worry about so much."

The son wanted to remind his father so that he would be ashamed and stop supervising him in the future, so that he could be free. Unexpectedly, his father didn't seem to care at all.

The son rolled his eyes and thought of an idea.

That day, when the father was carrying his son home on his back, several children suddenly jumped out from the side, and they circled around the father.

One child said, "Did you know that the audience in the weightlifting hall are all there to see you?"

He saw that the muscles on his father's face were trembling, his whole body was shaking, and he almost choked. When he got home, his father squatted on the ground and started to cry. His mother asked him what happened? He said there were several children, insulting dad.

The father suddenly jumped up, pointed at him and said, no matter how outsiders insult me, I will not feel uncomfortable, but you...I can see from your eyes that you called those children. Yes, you made me sad by doing this.

He lowered his head. Indeed, he had called those children there in order to stimulate his father so that he would never stay in the weightlifting gym again.

After hearing this, the mother pulled him to her side and said, son, do you know why your parents came to Bulgaria? In fact, the real reason is that you can't bear the insults from your hometown. You are still young now. When you get a few years older, you will feel it firsthand. Your father sent you to the weightlifting gym just to make you a giant and not be affected by it in your life. Discrimination from outsiders.

His heart suddenly shook. He didn't have to be a few years older to feel it all of a sudden. The reason why his father cultivated him carefully was because he wanted him to use his achievements to make up for his physical shortcomings. After all, he is still a child now. Once he grows up, he will be short like his father and find it difficult to stand in the crowd.

Since then, he has been training hard, constantly increasing the weight of the snatch and clean and jerk, accumulating infinite strength in his small body.

The story takes place in the 1950s. Professor Robert Kerns' "blink wiper" design technology was fraudulently plagiarized by the Ford Motor Company of the United States. In order to defend his invention rights, Robert Kerns decided to sue Ford. This was a lawsuit filed by one person against an automobile industry giant. Except for himself, no one believed he could win, so all his friends who helped him apply for a patent abandoned him. In the end, even his wife, who had always supported him, had to leave him for the growth of his six children.

In the process, he also encountered a dizzying temptation: Ford made offers ranging from US$400,000 to US$1 million to US$30 million to settle the case privately!

When he first faced the temptation of $400,000, his attitude was very firm: "If these people are allowed to go unpunished, how can I educate my children to uphold the truth in the future?"

When faced with the temptation of $1 million for the second time, his answer was: "Yes, but there is one condition, that is, Ford must publicly admit in the newspaper that they plagiarized my invention."

Chapter Three times, 12 years later, all six children have grown up. Because of his unremitting persistence, the children who were taken away by his wife changed their attitude towards him from misunderstanding to support. And he is no longer as desperate as he was back then, but has learned to consider the feelings of his family.

Therefore, when the lawyer sent by Ford Motor Company told him that he was willing to pay $30 million privately, he turned around and looked at the children who were helping him organize the litigation materials. At this time, the younger daughter, who was in adolescence, took the lead and said: "No! Dad. We don't want it!" Then, his eldest son said to the lawyer very firmly: "Please get out!"

That In an instant, Robert Kerns went from nervous to relieved, and even a little proud. It was clear that the example he had set for his children to uphold the truth was bearing fruit.

If you want to sue Ford, you will need huge expenses. Robert Kerns, who cannot afford a lawyer, can only study law by himself in the library for several years. In court, he will ask and answer questions to defend himself. .

This time, Robert Kerns won. His victory was not only personal but also collective. At such moments, such courage and confidence will make you unable to help but stand in awe. In the movie, outside the court, many little people whose invention patents were infringed watched the progress of Robert's case with concern. They regard him as their representative. Robert's high fighting spirit and courage to defend himself and uphold fairness and justice are admired by everyone. For many people, the price of success is too high and not worth it, especially from a financial perspective. However, that is because they do not understand the true meaning of success. This is not only material success or reputational success, but also moral and belief success. Such success is priceless and does not bring people anything. A simple sense of accomplishment, but a sense of dignity, value and meaning as a human being. Classic inspirational philosophical story 12

If you have ever been discouraged by failure, please read below. Because achieving your goals often doesn’t matter. Let me explain.

Two little brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind the house. While they were having fun, the two older children stopped to watch the fun. "What are you doing?" one of them asked. "We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!" One of the little brothers excitedly took the initiative to chat. The older children laughed and told the younger ones that it was impossible to dig through the earth. After a long silence, a child picked up a jar filled with spiders, worms, and various insects.

He took off the lid, showed the wonderful content inside to the mockers, and then said softly and confidently: "Even if we can't dig through the earth, look at the wonderful discoveries we made when we dug the hole!"

Their goals were overly ambitious, but they prompted them to dig. This is exactly what goals are about - prompting us to move in a given direction, in other words, prompting us to actually take action!

However, not all goals will be successfully achieved, and not all work will ultimately be successful. Success, not all relationships last, not all hopes are fulfilled, not all love lasts forever, and not all dreams come true. When you fail to achieve your goals, maybe you can say: "Yes, but look at the wonderful discoveries I made along the way! Look at the wonderful things my efforts have brought to life!"

Once upon a time, there was a man in Cairo, Egypt, who had a fortune of tens of millions. He was generous and scattered all his wealth, leaving only his ancestral house and had to work to make ends meet. He worked very hard. One night, he was so tired that he fell asleep under the fig tree in the garden. He dreamed that a man with soaked clothes took out a gold coin from his mouth and said to him: "Good luck to you." Find him in Isfahan, Persia."

He woke up the next morning and embarked on a long journey, experiencing deserts, oceans, pirates, idolaters, rivers, and wild beasts. After many hardships and tests, he finally arrived in Isfahan. It was getting late when we first entered the city, but we lay down in the courtyard of a mosque for the night. There was a house next to the mosque. Due to the arrangement of Almighty God, a group of robbers took advantage of the mosque and broke into the house. The sleeping people were awakened by the noise of the robbers and shouted for help.

The neighbors also shouted, and the captain of the night patrol in the area arrived, and the robbers climbed over the wall and escaped. The captain ordered a search of the temple and found the man from Cairo. The soldiers beat him to death with bamboo sticks. Two days later, he woke up in prison, and the captain took him for interrogation: "Who are you and where are you from?"

The man replied: "I come from the famous city of Cairo, and my name is Al. "

The captain asked: "What are you doing in Persia?"

The man said truthfully: "A man asked me to come to Isfahan in a dream and said something good about me. Luck is here. Now that I have arrived in Isfahan, I find that the good luck waiting for me is a good beating."

After hearing this, the captain smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed. , and finally said: "O reckless and gullible man, I dreamed three times of a house in Cairo. Behind the house was a sun. Behind the sun was a fig tree. Behind the fig tree was a fountain. Under the fountain was a treasure.

I don’t believe in wandering dreams at all, but you, a fool born of a mule and the devil, actually believe in a dream and travel to so many cities. Don't let me see you again in Isfahan, take a few coins and go. ”

The man took the money and returned to his own country. He dug out a large number of treasures left by his ancestors under the fountain in his garden, which was the place where the captain dreamed.

This story is of course mythical and not true, but it illustrates a truth: dreams are not reality, but a positive attitude and perseverance can turn them into reality.
