"The man changed his life to see fifty": These four providences will help you rewrite your destiny, and everyone's life trajectory has its own unique rhythm and rhythm.
First of all, the age of fifty is the time to recognize yourself. After half a lifetime of ups and downs, you should already have a deep understanding of your character, abilities and mission.
As Jia Pingwa said: "People can't actually do a few things in their lives, and everything they do is to find their own position." "At this age, you should have found your place and clarified your goals and directions.
Secondly, fifty years old is the time to accumulate wisdom. Time is like a song, wisdom is like wine. At the age of fifty, you have accumulated enough experience and wisdom in life, which will be a valuable asset on your future path.
Liu Ji of the Ming Dynasty wrote in "Quatrain: Life is not 100 years old": "Life is not 100 years old, what about a hundred years old? The heroes of ancient times have returned to the mountains and rivers. ”
This means that no matter how short life is, as long as we accumulate enough wisdom and experience, we can leave our own traces in the long river of history. Third, the age of 50 is the time to cultivate the mind.
At this age, you should have learned how to control your emotions and desires and maintain inner peace and serenity.
This peace of mind will help you better cope with life's challenges and difficulties and achieve inner strength and resilience.
Finally, fifty years old is a time to enjoy life. After half a lifetime of struggle and struggle, you should have learned how to enjoy life and cherish the moment.
Regardless of your accomplishments, you should learn to appreciate the good and happy in life. Because, life itself is the greatest wealth and reward.
In short, "men change their lives to see fifty", these four providences will help you rewrite your destiny and achieve a turning point in your life. At this age, recognize yourself, accumulate wisdom, cultivate your mind, and enjoy life, and you will usher in a new chapter in your life and a better future. Even though life is as long as 100 years old, when we enter the age of 50, the second half of life has quietly begun.
No matter whether the heart is full of anxiety or not, no matter how much wealth and status you hold in your hands, the desire to borrow another 500 years from the sky is only an unrealistic fantasy after all. A 100-year-old life, for most people, is still an insurmountable end.
Since ancient times, emperors have been held high above the world, worshipping their subjects every day, longing for their dynasty to be as eternal as their country.
However, no matter how glorious and wealthy they were, no emperor could live to be a thousand years old, and no dynasty could last forever.
In the end, only their names and past merits and deeds will be recorded in history.
Everything in the world, except for the heavens, the earth, the sun and the moon, is eternal and unchanging, and all living beings cannot be eternal. Just like the departure of spring and the arrival of autumn, the blooming and withering of flowers, the silent fall of snowflakes, and the melting of ice cubes without leaving a trace.
Life is like a autumn of grass and trees, coming as fast as lightning and going as small as dust. Spring goes to winter, rich and poor, birth, old age, sickness and death, and finally all return to dust.
As Cao Zhi in the Wei and Jin dynasties said in "Two Songs of Sending Ying": "It is difficult to achieve many times, and Jiahui is impermanent." There is no end in heaven and earth, and human life is like frost. ”
When all sentient beings come to the world, it is actually an experience, through which they gradually know and understand themselves. Everyone doesn't know when they were born or when they will die.
However, different people have different life courses and perceive different experiences. The ancient Greek philosopher once said, "Knowing ourselves is the mission of you and me in this life." ”
It is only after the age of fifty that most people truly comprehend the destiny of heaven and understand what one can become, what one should become, and how one should live.
When you go through most of your life through ups and downs, you will have an epiphany: most of the world's fame and fortune, right and wrong, are just passing clouds, and the masked usher is sent away, full of calculations and scheming, prosperity and impermanence, and gains and losses are difficult to measure.
Many times, you get what you want, but you are destined to lose it. As you turn 50, you will gradually look down on many things, and understand that being serious or not serious, stubborn and giving up easily are not the right choices.
Only by going with the flow and having a clear conscience can we be at ease and come slowly like a spring breeze. At this age, you have learned how to reconcile with yourself, with the world, to cherish the present and embrace the future.
The years are like a song, and it is this endless gift of time that gives us the wisdom to perceive the destiny of heaven. Everything in the world has always been the same, it has not changed, what has changed is only our state of mind.
Just as people climb the mountain, step into the temple, face the Buddha statue, and their hearts swell with respect and pray silently, at that moment, their hearts are calm and relieved, as if happiness has knocked on the door overnight.
However, we are still the same we, but our state of mind has reached the Buddha's knowledge. Jia Pingwa once wrote in "Walking Alone": "Life is as short as an ant, life and death, gathering and dispersing, in just a few decades, why not be comfortable and chic, and complete their own lives, this is the whole meaning of survival." ”
When we enter the age of 50, those who can really change their destiny are those who recognize themselves, gain insight into reality, and find their own identity.
They may have made rapid progress in their careers, or they may have accepted their ordinariness, but they all cultivate fences and plant chrysanthemums in their hearts, and their hearts are rich, so good luck comes naturally.
However, there are those who have grown older but have not increased in wisdom.
Even when they reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, they failed to seize the opportunity to change their fate, and they still repeated the tragic fate of the first half of their lives.
Because they never really understood what they were really after.
Jia Pingwa once said: "When others say good things about me, I thank others, and I must ask myself if I am as he says?" When people despise me, I must be worthless. If there is slander and slander, it is completely unsuccessful. ”
If a person over 50 has not experienced a catastrophe or a catastrophe, but can still maintain a good attitude, it is undoubtedly the favor of fate.
In the long river of history, natural disasters and man-made disasters have continued, and it is not easy for people living in that era to live to be 50 years old.
There is a good saying: "If you haven't experienced hunger, you won't understand the importance of food; If you haven't experienced turmoil, you won't understand ordinary happiness; If you haven't experienced betrayal, you won't understand the value of integrity. ”
For most of our lives, if we can survive the wind and rain safely, be fed and clothed, and live peacefully to our old age, it is the best gift of time to us.
Everyone has the expectation in their hearts, that kind of ordinary and quiet life, without strong winds and waves, some people may think that this is caused by luck, but at a deeper level, this kind of peace of life actually comes from personal mentality and choices.
In ancient times, there was a scholar who was preparing to take the exam, but he had a strange dream at night. He dreamed that he was planting sorghum at the top of the wall, and suddenly it rained, and he was wearing both a hat and an umbrella. Puzzled, he went to the fortune teller for help. The fortune teller told him, "It is in vain to plant sorghum on the wall; Wearing a hat and an umbrella is redundant. After hearing this, the scholar was depressed and decided to give up the exam, pack his luggage and prepare to go home. On the way back, he met the owner of the lodging shop, who curiously asked him why he was leaving before he took the exam. The scholar told the boss about the dream and the fortune teller's words.
When the boss heard this, he laughed and said, "Childe misunderstood, planting sorghum on the wall, that is a sign of high school; Wearing a hat and an umbrella, isn't that foolproof? After hearing this, the scholar woke up like a dream and took the exam as scheduled, and the result was the title of the gold list and became famous in one fell swoop.
The Tao Te Ching says: "The wood of the hug is born at the end of the millennium; The nine-story platform starts from the soil; Great oaks from little acorns grow.. What people fear, we must not be afraid of. This tells us that the good or bad mentality directly affects our destiny.
Only by being respectful, compassionate and generous, positive and optimistic, pragmatic and open-minded, can we continue to move forward in life and fulfill our dreams.
