As Lee Kuan Yew said, "As long as there is direct sunlight all year round, it is enough."

I saw this sentence in "The Memoirs of Lee Kuan Yew", regardless of the situation in Singapore at that time No matter what the situation is, what crises we are facing, and what similarities we have in life, we can always feel the wisdom and energy contained in this sentence.

It’s not because Lee Kuan Yew is a great figure, so what he said can be very shocking, so we write and understand it. But his words are so simple, so simple, so easy to forget.

Looking for hope in despair

“In 1972, the Singapore Tourism Board sent a report to Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew saying that Singapore does not have the pyramids of Egypt, the Great Wall of China, and Japan has Mount Fuji, unlike Hawaii, which has waves more than ten meters high. We don’t have any tourist attractions except direct sunlight all year round. It’s really hard for a woman to make a living without rice.”

When seeing such a scene in Singapore, the father of Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew, said the previous sentence. The natural conditions that are often the most ignored have made Singapore one of the "Four Asian Tigers" in the future.

Pursue, pursue elegance, pursue freedom, pursue wealth, pursue the life that others have, because many people live in envy of the life that others have. "It's better to sit there and think about it, I don't have anything, I can't compare to anything, I have nothing but some advantages." Maybe developing that advantage can bring you the life you want.

The ultimate nirvana is in the strengths you have been ignoring.

Learn to be content while developing

Sometimes, some things, in a specific place, we get lost bit by bit, forgotten bit by bit, and are forgotten day by day. To grow, to be or to copy.

In those years, we all had more or less longings for each other. When we were children, we all had a few small wishes. When we grow up, we want to be a scientist, an architect, a musician, etc. Why? No students say they want to farm at home or be a salesperson in a store, but instead they have a seemingly high-end "career"? Just because we have known since childhood that these labels seem to have incomparable honors. Some people really have this kind of thinking, and some people are "got" because others have this kind of thinking.

In the process of chasing dreams, many people only achieve half of it, and some of the remaining people give up halfway. In the end, only one or two people are left, and they have completed what they once did. Those who made promises for the future, but what are they doing that have not yet been fulfilled? Some of them are still yearning for it, some have moved on to other tracks, and some are just envious or even jealous all day long. But what kind of logic is this? Who is leading whose life and whose future! Run fast, run too fast, there is no clear object in front of you, because you can't see anything clearly, no matter in the dark or in the light, there is nothing in your eyes, just like this, you have finished running for life , what you got

Be content with what you have, family affection, friendship, and love. Be calm and let nature take its course. Sometimes very simple things take a long time to understand, realize, and ponder. But it is worth it. The deeper the thought is, the farther the road is, the better tomorrow will be.

Live within your ability, not for others, not for vanity, but for your own happiness. He who is content is always happy.

There are four seasons in a year, and the four seasons are different. There are flowers in spring, snow in winter, green leaves in summer, and fruits in autumn. Under the sun, as long as there is sunshine and direct sunlight, the four seasons can be distinguished and everything can be available.

Then, as long as the simplest thing has life, it will be wonderful.

There is a song "Contentment" on May Day - the stars in the sky laugh at the people on the ground.

Because many people don't understand, they don't know how to be content. They follow others first, and then they get lost or tired, and there are many people who reach the end. Think about it, is it really happiness?

Perhaps, in this life, some people are just copies of others, the second version of themselves! Our lives, who are we spending our time on!

We belong to ourselves, whether here or there;

We belong to ourselves, whether body or soul;

We belong to ourselves , whether it’s yesterday, today, or tomorrow.

Whoever abandons me will not be able to stay as I did yesterday. Good or bad, it's all in the past.

As long as there is direct sunlight all year round, it is enough. Why care about other more or less gains and losses.
