People are always like this, when faced with strangersBe able to maintain a cautious mind and be wary of human nature.
However, when faced with close friends,But they often let their emotions override their reason, and they are unwilling to imagine the malice they may have.
We believe in our hearts that our relatives and friends will not harm us, and even think that guarding them is a desecration of friendship.
It wasn't until I was betrayed, hurt, and hit a wall that I woke up like a dream and realized:
It turns out that not everyone in this world is as kind as we imagined.
In this complex world,It has become the norm of life to be warm and cold, to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages.
If we don't learn to protect ourselves, it's easy to sink in the whirlpool of pain.
In the hit series Game of Thrones, Eddard Stark and Jaime Lannister were close friends and trusted each other.
However, when Jaime betrays Ed under the power of the ** and brutally kills him, Ed's faith and concept of humanity crumble instantly.
This betrayal not only puts the Ed family in trouble, but also makes him realize the greed and selfishness in human nature.
As one netizen sharply commented:
"Loyalty is nothing more than a joke in the Game of Thrones
When power and interests are placed in front of us, the evil in human nature will be infinitely magnified. ”
Indeed, human nature is complex and elusiveRelying too much on and trusting human nature often hurts you in the end.
A historian once shared a story.
In ancient times, merchants often traveled long distances in groups.
On the way, they often need to rely on each other and take care of each other.
However, when faced with great wealth,Even businessmen who are close to each other like brothers can become greedy and betray each other.
To avoid this, merchants developed an unwritten rule:
In important transactions, always put the least trusted person in charge of guarding the belongings.
In this way, even if someone is greedy, they will restrain themselves because they are afraid of betrayal by the other party.
You see, in this world full of **, even the most intimate relationships can break down because of interests.
We should not blindly believe in the inherent goodness of human nature, but should always be vigilant and rational.
Only in this way can we protect ourselves in this complex and ever-changing world.
During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a famous minister named Hai Rui, who was honest and selfless, and dared to speak out.
When he is in a high position and the power is in his hands,The people around him approached one after another, smiling and flattering.
However, when he was relegated to a remote area for offending the powerful, those who had once greeted him with a smile immediately changed their facesNot only did no one lend a hand, but they fell into the trap and even made up bad things about him.
The originally lively mansion has become crowded, and those relatives and friends in the past have avoided it for fear of being implicated.
Later, Hai Jui was reused by the imperial court, and those people came with gifts one after another.
Hai Rui has long seen through the falsehood and coldness of human feelings, and he inscribed a couplet on the door:
"Things can be content, and people are self-exalted. ”
This couplet tells the truth of human affection:
Only when you no longer ask for anything can you truly see the essence of human affection.
There is a sentence in the "Zengguang Xianwen" that is very thorough:
"No one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. ”
This quote reveals the true face of human affection:
When you're in trouble, even people by blood can be cold and ruthless to you;
And when you succeed, those who have been estranged from you will move closer together.
This kind of human weakness that tends to be inflammatory, dislikes the poor and loves the rich, is a reality that we have to face.
Just like Stanley Ho, who was born in the family of the richest man in Hong Kong, when his family was in trouble
Those relatives who used to greet him with a smile immediately changed their faces and even sneered at him.
This kind of behavior of falling into the well makes people feel deeply cold.
So, when you fall once and fall to the bottom, you will understand:
In this world, the only one who can really be relied on is yourself.
Instead of pinning your hopes on other people's favors, you should strive to improve yourselfLive yourself like a mountain, perseverance, and no fear of wind and rain.
Some people, no matter how good you are to him, he will not appreciate it;
Some people, even if you offend him, he will greet you with a smile.
Indeed, human nature is often more complex than we can imagine.
Netizens have shared their experiences. When he first started his career, he received careful guidance from his boss and got along well with his colleagues.
However, when he was promoted to project manager for his outstanding performance,
The originally harmonious atmosphere instantly became tense.
His former cordial colleagues began to sneer at him, and even slandered him in the back;
The boss who had supported him also changed his attitude and picked on his work.
During that time, he was stressed and physically and mentally exhausted.
But after all this, he deeply realized:
In this world, there are not many people who sincerely wish you well.
Many people will be jealous of your successEven at all means to suppress you.
This is not an isolated case, but a universal phenomenon in human nature.
As described in the widely circulated "jealousy post", the poster can't stand that his friends are better than himAnd made a despicable act of reporting a friend for cheating on an exam.
Behind this behavior is the embodiment of the dark side of human nature.
"The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it; Heaped out of the shore, the flow will be turbulent. ”
This ancient adage speaks of the complexity and cruelty of human nature.
In this complex society, we can't guarantee that everyone will be kind to us.
Therefore, when we achieve achievements, we should maintain a humble and low-key attitude
Avoid causing unnecessary jealousy and strife.
At the same time, we must also learn to protect ourselves and not easily challenge the bottom line of human nature.
After all, it is only yourself who will be hurt in the end.
The real pain of life often makes people more sober.
Without grinding, wisdom is difficult to live.
I've fallen, I've tasted pain, and I've felt the heat and coldness of the world
Only then can we have a deeper perspective on people's hearts and understand the true meaning of human nature.
Reading this, I hope you will not be gullible in people's hearts, and do not blindly overestimate human nature.
The world is complex, the human heart is unpredictable, and only by experiencing wind and rain can we understand the true face of the world more deeply.
Remind yourself to always be sober and independent, not to underestimate the complexity of the human heart, nor to overestimate the purity of human nature.
Pay attention to it and encourage you together.
Get used to one person, carry it all.
