The pattern determines fate, and the size of a person's pattern is directly related to his achievements and quality of life. And a top-level pattern is often "hidden". As the poet Schiller said, "Your destiny is hidden in your own breast." "A person's heart will determine the boundaries of his worth and energy.
Kindness is an important part of a person's landscape. However, manifestations of kindness often need to happen quietly and be practiced without leaving a trace. True kindness should be intangible and unreciprocated. A warm heart will quietly lift up the world and not let people perceive it. Recalls the founding generals of the Northern Song DynastyCao Bin, When he was a taishou in Xuzhou, he met a criminal official. According to the law, the petty officials should be punished, butCao BinHe was not held accountable. On the contrary, he let the little official live a normal life for more than a year. Cao BinThe reason for this is that considering that the little official has just married a wife, once the responsibility is immediately pursued, it may make the family of the little official think that the wife brought disaster and destroy the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. While there is no scientific basis for this decision, it showsCao BinThe quality of consideration for the future of others and empathy. True kindness needs to be hidden deep in the heart, silently holding up the affairs and future of others, in order to reflect the meticulousness and breadth of a person's pattern.
RelationshipsAn inevitable part of life, but its complexity is often unimaginable. When faced with delicate interpersonal interactions, tolerance is the key to maintaining a good relationship. Recall Zhang Qixian of the Northern Song Dynasty, when he was working as a transshipment envoy in Jiangnan, he found a domestic servant stealing silverware. However, Zhang Qixian did not take it seriously, but continued to promote other talented servants. The only servant who hid the silverware was never promoted until one day he asked why. Zhang Qixian told him that the reason why he was not promoted was because the silverware incident made him question his character. Although the secret was hidden for thirty years, when it was revealed, Zhang Qixian kindly arranged for the domestic servant to leave. Through this example, it can be seen how many things a person can hide, especially the kindness to others, can also determine the size of a person's pattern. Seeing through, hiding, and repaying grievances with virtue are all manifestations of a huge mind, which can make a person's relationship network broader and his heart broader.
Fate is uncontrollable for a person, but we can cope with it by building within ourselves. In the face of the ups and downs of life and the ups and downs of fate, whether a person's heart is as calm as water will determine whether he can face challenges with a peaceful mind. Only by maintaining a tolerant and indifferent attitude towards fate can we make our lives easier and more enjoyable. There is a story about a rich man who asked his servants to bask in the sun with the books hidden in the study to avoid insect damage. A shabbyScholarLying in the place where the book was dry, the rich man asked him why he did itScholarAnswer: "I'm posting my books." This story tells us that true wealth does not lie in the accumulation of external things, but in the cultivation and accumulation of the heart. Only the mind is as still as waterSee through the red dustin order to remain calm and firm in the ups and downs of fate.
The bigger the pattern of a person, the more things he can contain, and the more things he really has. The pattern determines a person's fate, and the holder of a top-level pattern often has the characteristics of being humble and low-key. As mentioned at the beginning, a truly noble mind is often "hidden". The eye may not see a grain of sand, but for the position of the horizon, the infinite heaven and earth are its distance. In the same way, the mouth can be used to curse, but in due time, silence becomes invaluable. Hands can turn into fists, but outstretched arms can embrace the whole world. A big-hearted person is even willing to take a step back and leave a way for others. Only by hiding deeply, can a person truly show his pattern and be able to get more wealth and opportunities in life.
Finally, I hope we can understand that the size of a person's mind determines his life realm and achievements. We should strive to cultivate and expand our minds, to have deep compassion, and to deal with it wellRelationships, face the ups and downs of fate with a peaceful mind, and maintain a vast pattern. May we be able to hide the scenery, gain more value and energy, and create a better life together.
