Time is a gentle knife that cuts wrinkles across our faces and leaves marks on our hearts.
As we grow older, we gradually learn to be introverted and indifferent, and understand a truth: "A person who is content is always happy".
However, there are always some older people who are too "assertive" in their later years, and the results are often not ideal.
They may not have malicious intent, but in this real world, no one wants you to be better off than they are.
1.Don't flaunt your wealth.
Wealth has always been a goal that people are pursuing.
When we are young, we work hard to accumulate wealth and make life better for ourselves and our families.
However, as people get older, they need to learn how to hide their wealth properly.
This does not mean that you should be petty or hypocritical, but to avoid unnecessary trouble and jealousy.
Try to imagine this. Constantly showing off your luxury car, mansion in front of friends, or talking about your return on investment when you meet can attract unwanted attention and trouble.
Your relatives and friends may feel uncomfortable or jealous. It also allows people who are not used to spying on your property, which can create a safety hazard.
2.Don't publish your child's achievements.
Children are the pride of their parents' lives.
We cheer for their every success and grieve for their every setback.
But as we get older, we need to learn to properly suppress our pride and pride and not boast too much about our children's achievements.
In this competitive society, everyone strives for their own success.
When a child achieves extraordinary results, jealousy and jealousy naturally arise.
This jealousy can turn into hostility and cause him to attack you.
Therefore, in order to protect ourselves and our families, we must keep a low profile and ensure that the results of our children's efforts are duly recognized.
3.Don't be open about your health condition.
Health is the foundation of life in old age.
Only with a healthy body can you live a good retirement.
However, some older people like to show off how healthy they are when they are in good health, which often has the opposite effect.
On the other hand, being too open about one's health can cause backlash from others.
After all, everyone's physical condition is different, and some people may face health problems.
Your show-off will make them feel even more miserable and helpless.
On the other hand, being too open about your health can also put pressure on yourself.
Once you're out of shape, people who hear you brag about it may look at you in strange eyes, making matters worse.
Therefore, we need to learn to be humble and humble while taking care of our health.
4.Don't sell your travel experience.
For many seniors, traveling is one of the great joys of later life.
They leave the house to see the outside world and experience different customs.
Be careful, though, when sharing your travel experiences, don't be too pompous, be careful.
Being too open about your travel experiences can cause envy and jealousy from others.
After all, not everyone has the opportunity and time to travel.
Your pretentiousness may make them feel that their lives are boring.
Additionally, being too open about one's travel experiences can create a sense of vanity.
Traveling itself is a fun and educational process, but if you're traveling just to show off, you're losing the meaning of traveling.
Therefore, we should travel with a calm mind and enjoy the fun of it, rather than showing off and comparing.
That is, as we grow older, we need to learn to be humble and indifferent, and not to exaggerate our wealth, children's achievements, physical condition, travel experience, etc.
This does not mean that you should be hypocritical or stingy, but rather to protect yourself and your family from unnecessary trouble and jealousy.
In this real world, no one wants you to be better off than they are.
Therefore, we must learn to cherish what we have, face life calmly, and enjoy a good retirement.
