In the journey of life, the most difficult thing for everyone is to learn to let go and not want to say goodbye to their glorious history; in the end, almost everyone's life is wavering between choices. When anything happens, we have always been making silent choices. If there is giving, there must be gain, and if there is gain, there must be giving. Everyone spends every day in giving and gaining. When we take things lightly and learn to let go, those things that make us feel painful will disappear.
Life is only a few decades old. Only by learning to let go and say goodbye to the past can we seize the opportunity of the present. Learning to let go requires a lot of mind and structure, which is not an easy task. And knowing how to let go is growth in life, and it is also an awakening.
What you give up is obsession, and what you get is freedom; giving up is also decision-making power. As long as you grasp the scale of willingness, you can hold the key to the door of your life. It took 60 years for us to understand that the things we once held on to were not “must haves”.
When we take a lighter view and learn to let go, those things that make us feel painful will disappear. Buddha said: "Let go of one thought, and you will feel at ease in everything." Let go of your obsessions and calm down. No matter what you encounter, you will be as comfortable as ever. And between ‘giving up’, ‘leaving’ and ‘gaining’, you can integrate your own values and insights into the life you want most in your mind. In people's daily lives, if people give up, they will gain. Break away from the pursuit of complicated things; from abandoning things to simplify your life; from being trapped by material things to spiritual freedom . For example, on weekdays:
gives up a lot of books and gets more in-depth reading.
Get rid of a lot of clothes that don't fit you, so as to achieve a beautiful image.
Get rid of a lot of daily necessities to gain spacious space.
Get rid of a lot of useless social interactions and get more sincere friends.
Get rid of meaningless people, things and things to get 100% concentration.
In this life, people often feel pain because their "thoughts" are too deep.
We are always obsessed with things that do not belong to us, and we hold on too tightly to the things we already own.
Writer Keller once said: "People with vanity are slaves of people without vanity."
Most people spend their lives striving for the gorgeous coat of vanity. In order to gain recognition from others, they work sleepless and day and night, so that they are physically and mentally exhausted.
Once upon a time, there was a young man who dreamed that he could become a learned scholar.
In life, he also has to compete with others over some trivial matters. Many years have passed, and although there has been some progress in "eloquence", there has been no progress in knowledge.
For this reason, he was in distress and went to visit a master.
The master took him to climb the mountain. Before leaving, he gave him a bag and said, "If there are stones on the road that can get into your eyes, pick them up and put them in the bag."
There were many crystal clear stones on both sides of the mountain road. The young man thought this one was good and that one was good, so he picked them up and put them into the bag one by one. Unconsciously, he picked up more and more stones, and the stones on his back became heavier and heavier. The young man was panting and felt that he couldn't bear it.
At this time, he stopped, raised his head and said to the master: "Master, the stone is too heavy. I am almost out of strength. I am afraid it will be difficult to reach the top of the mountain.Master
said slowly: "Since you feel weak, you should let go. Otherwise, how can you reach the top?" "
After hearing this, the young man froze on the spot, as if he had an enlightenment. Then he took out the stones from the bag and placed them on the roadside. He bowed deeply to the master and thanked the master before leaving.
After returning home, the young man stopped comparing himself with others and concentrated on studying books.
"The Tao Te Ching" says: "Husbands do not fight, so no one in the world can fight with him." "
We are like that young man. When we see others doing well and making money, we dive in ourselves, but achieve nothing.
Life is like the sea. If you take anything too seriously, you will inevitably be scarred.
Learn to put down your burdened vanity at the right time and keep everything simple, so that you can reach the top of life.
There is a saying: "People should not live in a ball of emotions. ”
In this life, no one has the obligation to contain all your emotions, especially when negative emotions break out.
Everyone can lose their temper, but keeping emotions is a person’s true ability.
The writer Theodore once shared a story:
One day, he and his friends were having breakfast when they met a man selling newspapers.
The newspaper seller came up to him and said contemptuously: "You are a writer, don't you think you don't read newspapers?" "
Theodore didn't pay too much attention and said: "I really need a newspaper. Please sell me one. "
After he finished buying the newspaper, he said to the newspaper seller: "Thank you for your hard work." "
Unexpectedly, the newspaper seller became angry and spit on the ground and said: "Are you mocking me? "
When my friend saw the newspaper seller being provocative, he thought of arguing in front of him, but was dragged away by Theodore.
The friend was very puzzled and asked: "That person is so unreasonable, why don't you scold him back?" "
Theodore smiled and said: "If I care too much about his bad words, I will definitely be led by his nose, and there will even be a fight. In that case, things outside of my real
life are just adjustments in life. I should take everything lightly. Especially the elderly need to be immersed in the environment. They should put down everything and manage their own living space carefully. By filtering and retaining necessities, we take the individual as the main body and maintain a comfortable and simple living space. If you learn to eliminate the unimportant and highlight the most important parts, you will get more and present more excitement.
Letting go is a process of constant thinking and seeking in the journey of life.
From the material to the spiritual level, the overall evolution is sorted out, maintaining the awareness of renunciation, allowing us to become the masters of independent life. The true meaning of life is deduced between giving up and gaining.
Life is short. In the limited years, by giving up, abandoning the useless and leaving the useful.
Get the life we really want and make our lives happier.
Breaking away allows people to get along better with the things they like.
It is true that giving up is also a state of mind. Giving up and gaining are what most people think in their hearts.
Breaking away from others is a process of mental strength and a practice of subtraction.
It allows people to get more from this kind of practice.
Breaking away, it wants to tell people that organizing life is not about labeling itself, but about calming down and examining one's life.
Which ones are redundant? Once you identify them, discard them without hesitation.
Through this, you discover what you really need and what kind of person you want to be.
Those who are not necessary, inappropriate, uncomfortable people, things and things should be decisively discarded and cut off the attachment to them. In the garden of my soul: When you learn to let go and be willing, for the rest of our lives, may we know how to let go, look ahead, cross one obstacle after another in life, spread our hands, and embrace the vast sea and sky.
