Hello everyone, I'm your emotional expert. Today I would like to talk to you about a topic, and that is the happiness of our lives. Have you ever heard of such a sentence that the happiness of a person in the first half of his life is four things: power, money, a house, and a car. And the happiness of the second half of a person's life is the four nothings, carefree, disease-free, and disaster-free. Sounds wonderful, right? However, what I want to tell you is that this is only a façade, and true happiness is actually nothing that you enjoy.
First, let's take a look at the four haves. Power, money, housing, and a car are all material needs in our lives. Yes, these can bring us happiness and make our lives more comfortable. However, if we only pursue these, then our lives will become monotonous and empty. Because these are only external and cannot bring us inner satisfaction.
Let's take a look at the four nos. Carefree, disease-free, these are our spiritual needs in life. That's right, these can bring us peace of mind and make our lives more peaceful. But if we just pursue these, then our life will become dull and uninteresting. Because these are only to avoid suffering, and they do not bring us true happiness.
So, what is true happiness? I believe that true happiness is that nothing is enjoyed by oneself. Nothingness here does not refer to material nothingness, nor does it refer to spiritual idleness. Rather, it refers to our heart, our state of mind. It is only when our hearts are filled with satisfaction and joy that we can truly feel happy.
So, how do you get to this state? I think, first of all, that we need to be clear about our purpose in life. It's not what others tell us we should strive for, it's what we really want ourselves. Second, we need to cherish every moment of the present. It's not always looking forward to the future, it's enjoying the present. Finally, we need to learn to be grateful. Not always complaining, but grateful.
Overall, life is like a journey, and we encounter a variety of landscapes along the way. Some landscapes make us laugh, others bring tears to our eyes. However, no matter what kind of scenery we encounter, we must learn to appreciate it and learn to be grateful. Because, only in this way, can we truly enjoy this trip and truly feel the beauty of life.
So, what I want to tell you is not to be fooled by those superficial four haves and four nothings. True happiness is one's own enjoyment. It is only when our hearts are filled with satisfaction and joy that we can truly feel happy. So, let's work together to pursue that true happiness!
