Nearly 40 years old, with a stable job and a happy family, healthy parents, and excellent children, but they can't find the joy of life and the direction of progress, and some even suffer from depression? How can we truly "not be confused"? I think we should go back to our "original heart" and know ourselves correctly.
Zi said: "Those who are not benevolent cannot be married for a long time, and they cannot be happy." The benevolent are benevolent, and the knower is benevolent. Confucius said, "An unkind person cannot be content with poverty for a long time, nor can he be in happiness for a long time." Virtuous people, wise people, they know the benefits of benevolence, so they can persist in doing virtuous things and enjoy them. ”
Born in sorrow, died in peace! "Those who are content are always happy" is right, at least for a short time, but it does not solve the underlying problem, because it means "stopping learning and growing". The confusion of the forty-year-old is more reflected in the conflict between the value of life and the practice of the first half of life. From "standing at thirty" to "not confused at forty" is the process of quantitative change to qualitative change, and it is necessary to face the successes and failures of the past at a higher level of thinking.
Do what? Doing the right thing, doing the thing with peace of mind, doing the thing that can sleep, and doing the thing that is benevolent, in the final analysis, is to do the things that conform to the objective law. How? See your own abilities and boundaries clearly, neither do it, waste time, nor force success in your career or life, just do your best.
The ups and downs of wealth run through everyone's life, the wise have insight, the benevolent have the benevolence of the house, the peace and happiness, peace and integrity, nothing to desire, with a peaceful attitude and not easy sentiment ambition to face the gains and losses of life, do not forget their own heart.
