Writer Morley said: "Opening and closing the door are the deepest movements in life."
No matter what stage of life you are in, you must think carefully about which "doors" for the rest of your life need to be closed and opened.
No matter what situation you are in, it is recommended to close and open the following "doors". I believe that your future life will be smoother.
01
Close the door of desire and open the door of temperance
A writer once said: "From now on, I began to choose my life carefully. I no longer easily let myself lose myself in all kinds of desires."
I used to be a meat eater. I had to eat meat for three meals a day to eat. Although I was very young at that time, my body was very immunity and my mental state were very bad. I often felt tired, so I could only rely on medicine to relieve my pain.
Later, after a sister learned about my situation, she suggested that I eat more vegetables.
I forced myself to eat for a month with a try mentality and found that my mental state has indeed improved.
was maintained all the time. Later I found that many symptoms were cured without treatment. I was very healthy and even had few colds.
If you want to live a healthy and happy life, you must close the door of desire.
Resisting desire is a kind of courage and a strict attitude towards doing things.
The self-control over desire is related to the texture of life.
Only by resisting the desire for food can you have a healthy body;
Only by resisting the desire for lazy can you constantly enrich yourself;
Only by resisting the desire for food can you ensure the smoothness of your career.

Close the door of greed and open the door of happiness
" Aesop's fable " says: "Some people want to get more things because of greed, but they lose what they have now."
There is a story in which two friends accidentally dug out a pile of gold in the woods and were very excited. So I discussed how to move this gold back.
One of them said, "It is not safe to move them back during the day, so it is better to move them back at night. I will stay here to watch. You go get some food, we will eat here, and then wait until it gets dark before moving the gold back."
So they divided into two groups, one stayed to guard the gold, and the other went back to get the food.
However, the person who stayed behind thought, "I would have done all this gold." So he found a wooden stick and was about to beat him to death with a wooden stick when his friend came back. He held the gold alone and greedily made a wishful thinking.
Coincidentally, the person who went to get the food also thought: "I'll go back and have a full meal first, and then poison his meal. When he dies, the gold is all mine."
As a result, when he got the food and returned to the woods, his friend attacked him with a wooden stick from behind and said, "Dear friend, I'm sorry! It was Gold that forced me to do this."
Then he picked up the food sent by the man and ate it in big mouthfuls, thinking that he could move the gold away after he had enough. But not long after, he died of poisoning.
This really corresponds to the old saying: people die for money, and birds die for food.
are all caused by greed.
Greed turns your closest friend into a mortal enemy.
The greed of people is endless, like a bottomless pit that can never be filled.
Only by closing the door of greed can you enjoy life happily.

Close the door of sin and open the door of kindness
The ancients said: Even if a person does good, even if the blessing has not arrived, the disaster has been away; if a person does evil, even if the disaster has not arrived, the blessing has been away.
There is a story called "Good Return" -
One day, taxi driver Adams received a call from an old woman: "The doctor said I don't have much time left to live, and I'm going to a nursing home now. I have no relatives anymore..."
Adams sent the old man to a nursing home. He was very short of money and did not charge the old man's fare, but simply hoped to give the old man a ride.
A week later, Adams received another call from the old man: "The ring that has been with me has disappeared. I searched everywhere but couldn't find it. It must have fallen in your car."
Adams was wronged and was very annoyed. He clearly remembered that when he left that day, the ring was hung on her neck.
But when the old man told him the story of this ring, Adams was very moved. He understood that it was the support of her life. He did not defend himself, but instead "returned" the old man a completely identical ring in the shortest time.
A year later, a lawyer found Adams and handed him a list of inheritances and a letter that read:
"Dear Adams, when I got the ring you retrieved, I realized that it was not mine, because my daughter's name was on the inside of my original ring. Actually, none of these matters.
Everything you did to a lonely old man has no other explanation except kindness and love. When you see this letter, I am no longer alive. Thank you very much for your selfless help. I have instructed the lawyer to give you all my inheritance: an apartment and a villa in the suburbs. This is a reward for your kindness."
Good and evil are only in one thought.
" The Three Kingdoms·Shu Book·Biography of the First Lord " says: "Do not do evil because it is small, and do not do good because it is small."
Whether you do good or evil, you will be rewarded in the end.
Good thoughts together, sow blessings; evil thoughts together, sow disasters.
Therefore, we should always warn ourselves at that time, always keep a kind heart, burn ourselves like a candle, and illuminate others.

Writer Zhou Guoping said: "A person lives in the world, and only by knowing what he really wants can he be calm and move calmly."
Only when a person knows what he wants can he find the most suitable lifestyle for him and can resist all external temptations.
May we all close the doors of desire, greed, and sin; open the doors of temperance, happiness and kindness!
