I answered that being alone is an opportunity to find and experience another yourself.
Yesterday I saw a big shot in a public account saying that he spent more than 23 hours a day in his room. He didn’t do nucleic acid and throw garbage and didn’t go downstairs. Later, I found that he couldn’t go anywhere, so he simply stopped doing nucleic acid. But during this period, it developed its own new potential, jogging ten kilometers on the walking machine, which had never been done before, but was achieved during the lockdown.
See another netizen below this: After all, I am an office worker and a mother who can never stop for a moment. But a few days ago, I was quarantined in a small hotel next to a county railway station, and the time was 8*24+4=196 hours. Since the activity space is less than 5 square meters (including a large bed), I developed the silent solitude function. I can read e-books all day long and play a few mentally retarded games occasionally. During the quarantine period, except for occasionally answering calls, I am alone without any sound. I feel that time has frozen and life has frozen. Now that I have been lifted out of isolation, I feel that it is actually a moment when I passed, it seems like another parallel world that has nothing to do with reality.
Many people resonate with this. They forget themselves in their daily life. It seems that they have found another self and felt another life during their stay alone. Most of the time this feeling is good, it can be said that I discovered another better self when I was alone. I also like the state of
. If you calm down, you will find that there are many things to do. 1. Pay attention to your daily diet. If you don’t have time to do it, you can practice it. The most direct thing is to freeze the dumplings in a refrigerator and put a plate for yourself when you get busy in the future. 2. Exercise, insist on jumping every day and you will find that as you get older, your figure has not changed much, which is also a kind of achievement. 3. Plant any seeds that may sprout. I have planted corn, sprouted potatoes, sweet potatoes and garlic cloves. From the seeds that break out of the soil to grow up a little, it feels very fulfilling. It doesn’t matter whether you can eat them or not. The key is that looking at the green color makes people feel happy.
is a life like this concrete and rich, and the heart is extremely calm, and one result is becoming clearer and clearer, that is: it turns out that the life I want is so simple.
But such a life is unbearable to other people or young people. They are accustomed to living in crowds and must talk to people to perceive their real existence. Limiting them to a space creates unwarranted sadness and anger. This is also a feeling when I was young. I like to talk to people and like public places. I once thought that it was easy to find a feeling when I was sitting in a cafe and reading or writing, as if only that would prove my existence.
Now I know that I was empty at that time and needed external forces to support me. Now you can calm down anytime and anywhere because another self was dug out when it was quiet. There was no external guidance. You just experienced silence and perceived every tiny thing in life, and you developed confidence in yourself.
This is a long process, and you need to feel it completely. No matter how much others say, it is useless. You can only truly calm down, pay attention to every detail of the present, slowly find the state, and then find another powerful and full self.
