When we are in material scarcity or encounter danger, we must have a skill and a way to avoid danger. We often look at the animal world and feel that each species has its own predation skills and ways to protect themselves. There are many carnivorous animals standing at the top of the food chain in order to better capture prey, they can disguise themselves well and prevent the other party from seeing through.
Isn’t this the same for us humans? In order to better adapt to society, we have to play different roles every time we are in a different environment, and we also have to disguise ourselves from time to time. Facing a thousand people, there are 1,000 different faces, just like wearing a thousand masks, we can only see our truest faces when we return home alone every day.
Faced with others, we have learned to disguise. Don’t you want to show your truest side to the other person? Of course not. The reason for this is that we can better integrate into the big dye vat of society. We have to do it for survival. Can't we live willfully and why we are so tired? Because we can't, we don't have a powerful and powerful man, and we have to rely on ourselves. So we can only think about some things, and we can't resist the cruelty of reality.
Everyone has different experiences, their life trajectories are also different, and their ways of making a living are also different. When material scarcity is insufficient, we try our best to get material satisfaction. We start to be mentally scarc and pursue spiritual satisfaction with all our might. Some people blindly pursue material things will expose their selfish, narrow and ugly faces. This is because they have a lot to do with material scarcity when they were young. Even after they are satisfied with material weakness, due to spiritual scarcity, they become greedy and squandering, stingy and selfish. Materials are external things, and spiritual wealth is a substantial thing. We first satisfy the spiritual level and then extend outward to meet material needs. Even if a person with spiritual scarcity is satisfied materially, it cannot make up for the spiritual emptiness.
Everyone has different life situations, and the things they pursue are also different. Of course, the only purpose of living in this world is to live better.
