People who have reached middle age have lived for half their lives, and have heard of and met with each other too many people! Not to mention how clear and transparent you live, how can you integrate into this troubled world? How to deal with the world? I still understand it! Don’t ask for joy or annoyance! A seemingly simple sentence is a lesson learned from the experience and lessons learned from half a lifetime of measuring choices, constantly trying and making mistakes, and finally enduring hardships!
The frivolity we were in when we were young made us live as we pleased. We don’t care about other people’s eyes, their evaluations, and their criticisms of others’ scoldings and scoldings. When I was young, I lived in my mood. I dared to think and do, regardless of the consequences, and I only considered my own feelings. The outside world could not control our thoughts. When we are beaten by society one after another, everyone is bored by the walls. Although there are still a few good friends and good sisters around us, as we grow older, we gradually understand that the young-headed way of dealing with the world will eventually be disgusted, excluded and suppressed by this world. We began to learn to flatter and cater to please, began to care about what others think of themselves, care about what others say about themselves, and began to hope that everyone could like themselves.
In this way, in the contradiction, we are no longer young, and we are slowly becoming middle-aged. We begin to eagerly desire success, to realize our value, to be recognized, liked and respected. However, we worked hard for a long time and found that no matter how good we did, it would not be satisfactory to everyone. There would always be people who would come out to point fingers and ask for trouble, there would always be people who would sneer at our efforts, and there would always be people who would hate us extremely. We can't make everyone like it. We start to summarize, reflect, regret the frivolity of our youth, and start to blame ourselves for not being smooth enough. But when time washed away all this, we seemed to have a new understanding.
After really entering middle age, life seems to suddenly become slow. We are no longer eager for quick success or instant benefits, no longer demand perfection, no longer welcome and serve everywhere, no longer be cautious. We understand the little truth of life and life. Everything cannot be perfect, cannot be forced, and cannot be extreme! Live naturally with the right mindset. Solving your own troubles without causing trouble for others is the most basic self-consciousness of an adult. Don't ask for joy or annoyance. Even living humbly.
