After receiving the text message in the afternoon, the courier brother put the courier in the inbox. I thought for a long time, but I didn't know what it was.
When I got into the community after work, I went to get the small packing box. When I got it, I put my hand down and shook it gently. Hearing the sound of metal collision, I suddenly understood that it was a gift from the captain, a weighing scale.
When I got home, I opened the package in a hurry, showing a wooden box the size of a box, and pushed open the upper cover. The copper weight on both sides is not shiny golden yellow, nor dull old yellow, much like bronze with a sense of the times, mottled with brown and engraved with official script. One side is "shut up" and the other side is "sitting alone."
Pick it up, this scale is cold and exciting. Although it looks small, about 2cm* 12cm in size, it is very heavy in your hand and will make your hand fall off.
Living in groups and keeping your mouth shut is not just to guard against disasters. First of all, don't say anything that goes against your principles or conscience. Secondly, don't talk about other people's right and wrong, and don't brag about your own trifles. Third, don't blame others for being too young, don't look for privacy, and don't miss their old sins. If you can do the above three things, you must be a highly cultivated person.
Sitting alone, the first thing that comes to mind is the word cautious independence. A person can truly be cautious and independent, and will never do it overnight. The so-called heart defense is also to hold your own heart. Historically, Yang Zhen's reputation of "cautious independence" has been passed down through the ages, and Zeng Guofan also regarded "cautious independence" as the first priority of self-cultivation. He must keep a diary every day, check and reflect on the words and deeds of the day, and see if there is any violation, honesty and dedication. It can be seen that sitting alone is the essence of self-cultivation and the realm of being a man. What is it? Is to keep your inner moral bottom line, value bottom line and personality bottom line. When you are alone, it is just the opportunity and test to keep your heart.
Copper scales on both sides, "live in groups and keep silent, sit alone and guard against the heart", from the sentence of "Zengguang Xianwen", accompanying me to study, reminding me to go to three provinces a day and improve my self-cultivation.
