01
Quietness starts from enjoying loneliness
Only when a person is quiet can he see himself clearly. The bustle is all external. Performance is mostly for others to see and is necessary for life. Inner loneliness is self-enjoyment. Knowing yourself, understanding yourself, and accepting yourself are the most important things in life.
Some people may not understand that loneliness is the result of poor popularity, lack of friends, being unsociable, out of place, and having no friends after being excluded. In fact, it is not the case. Loneliness does not mean that you have no ability to get along with others, but that you have no interest in playing along. The liveliness seems to be superficial and exaggerated, mostly to maintain superficial harmony.
Only by following one's own heart can one calm down when alone, rethink oneself, examine oneself, organize oneself, adjust oneself, enrich oneself, and add energy to oneself.
Don't underestimate a lonely person. People who can enjoy loneliness have a strong heart. He is not afraid of the influence of the external environment on him and does not care about the evaluation of others. If a person wants to be calm, he must start by enjoying solitude.
