"Life and death have a life, wealth is in the sky", from The Analects of Confucius Yan Yuan. In ancient times, it meant that all human life and death were decided by fate. Often used to indicate that the situation is irreversible.
Modern people like to take it out of context. One sentence is focused, and the first half is purely for enlightenment. It's like a friend of yours who lost his wallet and was sad. You just said, don't be sad. It's all destiny takes a hand. If you don't pursue the good, you will not pursue the new. It is not that life and death are determined by heaven, and manpower cannot be changed.

Enlightenment to us
We can't completely control our own life and death, we can only do our best. From a mysterious point of view, there is an invisible force regulating our world, and things are unpredictable; From a psychological point of view, it is a peaceful state of mind that goes with the flow.
Sometimes you can't get it even if you work hard, and sometimes you can get it without moving much. Let nature take its course, enjoy life, and there is another life and death: superstition means that life and death are determined by fate and irresistible. Life and death have a life, and wealth is a very real sentence. It has little to do with attitude towards life.
Confucius lamented Yan Yuan's unfortunate life experience: a man who was still in his prime died young because of the hardships of life. With his talent and morality, he should have been rich, but he was poor all his life. This is the misfortune of Yan Yuan and the misfortune of the times. This is a pity, a dissatisfaction with social reality and a query to the authorities.
