I have to admire the wisdom of the older generation. They seem to have summarized a lot of life, life experiences and principles for us. "If you don't listen to the old man, you will be in tears" actually means the same thing as "If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer a lot", except that the latter expression is more popular and everyone can understand what it means. This time I have prepared five proverbs to tell you what truths are contained in them. Maybe they can give you some inspiration and help you overcome some difficulties. Let’s take a look below.
There is a saying that goes well: "The world is beautiful, but the world is very difficult."
The world of flowers is rich, colorful and intoxicating. However, when people walk in the world, there are always ups and downs, disasters, endless problems, and endless clues...
The following five sentences are ancient people's way of seeing through human feelings. The summary of life experience after the state of the world not only contains exquisite wisdom, but also the accumulation of thousands of years of Chinese culture. As a Chinese, we must learn and understand it!
Doing good is like grass in the spring garden, If you don't see its growth, it will increase with each passing day; if you do evil like a sharpening stone, if you don't see its damage, you will lose something every day.
Many people don't take it seriously as to the rewards of good and evil. Some even say, "Killing people and setting fire to gold belts. There are angry words like "building bridges and repairing roads but no corpses".
In fact, these people's knowledge is too shallow. They can only see the surface, and they can only see the triumphant attitude of the evildoers taking advantage, but they cannot see the losses and ultimate consequences behind them.
Profits can be divided into small profits and big profits, as well as temporary and long-term profits.
Although you can get some benefits by doing bad things, they are only temporary "success" and unstable small profits.
And due to the shaking of their foundation and the destruction of their own "resources" caused by their evil deeds, they will eventually lose their big and long-term benefits, and even suffer a disastrous defeat.
There is no way for misfortunes and blessings, only people call it upon themselves. In the long run, people who do good deeds will be able to walk steadily, stay established, perform for a long time, and gain more.
Evil is like a plowshare and good is like clay. Good people are often bullied by evil people. The iron plows break down every year, but the fields are not replaced with mud
This sentence contains profound philosophy. The plowshare is extremely hard, and the soil is soft and boneless. When the plow and the soil are opposite, the soil is naturally vulnerable.
However, because the plowshare is hard, it is easy to wear away and rot, and its lifespan is not long; while the soil is soft and invisible, but it can be trampled on by anyone and will last forever.
Many things in the world are like this. Hard teeth fall off first, and soft tongues stay with you until you grow old. As the "Tao Te Ching" says: The strong will die, and the weak will live.
People who are aggressive, aggressive, and do not know how to compromise often run into obstacles and suffer more resistance and blows than others;
And those who are weak, mellow, low-key and reserved , Those who know how to give in can always be saved and have the last laugh.
Therefore, it is not necessarily a bad thing to be an honest person and often suffer small losses. The power of kindness and weakness are sometimes the wisest!
If you don’t listen to the old man’s words, you will definitely be in fear. Tears
There is such a fable.
Legend has it that in a certain period in ancient times, before the filial piety culture was formed, a tribe suffered from famine for several consecutive years and was extremely short of food.
The leader at that time thought that people would no longer be able to work when they were old, but they would still consume food, so they issued a decree: those who survived by the age of sixty would be buried alive!
Later The famine was over, but the law was still in effect.
There was a minister whose old father was sixty years old, but he could not bear to bury his father alive, so he built a secret room at home and hid his father in it.
One day, the leader convened the ministers for discussion and found a monster as big as an ox in the palace. His face turned pale with fear. Finally, the warriors drove the monster away.
However, the monster appears every day from now on, and no one can destroy it. The leader vented his anger on his ministers and slaves, and executed several people every day.
The minister was worried about his own safety and wanted to go far away. He was also worried that his father would be exposed after all the trouble, so he was too worried to eat or sleep well.
His father noticed it. After asking about it, he said: "This must be a mouse that has become a spirit. All mice in the world are afraid of cats. A nine-pound civet cat can reduce a thousand kilograms of rats. Take the civet cat at home with you." You can get rid of the monster."
The minister reported to the leader that he could get rid of the monster. After returning home, he weighed the civet cat, and it was eight and a half pounds. The old father asked him to feed the cat another half a pound of meat, and then put the civet cat in his sleeve to meet the monster.
When the monster saw the civet cat, it shrank into the size of an ordinary mouse and was eaten by the civet cat.
The leader was overjoyed and ordered a heavy reward. The minister did not want the reward and told the whole story. He only asked for his old father to be spared.
The leader finally understood: I thought that people would be useless when they get old, but it seems that the old man’s experience and knowledge are of great use. So he ordered that the ridiculous decree be repealed.
As the saying goes: There is no need to travel long distances to save old horses.
It is true that the elderly cannot work, but their experience and wisdom are valuable assets, because they can point us in the direction and avoid detours.
I would like to advise the young people today: listen more to the old people, listen more to your parents, and listen to the old people without suffering any disadvantages or difficulties!
If you have firewood and rice, you are a husband and wife, but if you don’t have firewood, you will not have rice. Everything
Couples, in essence, are two unrelated people living together for their own needs.
The reason why we can be together is because there is a kind of "balance" at work - each can get what he needs, what he wants, and each has his own benefits.
If living with you has no benefits, no benefits, no fun, or the "benefits" of being with you cannot meet your needs, then no matter how solid the relationship is, it may be difficult to resist Destroyed by the strong winds of reality, it eventually withered.
As the saying goes: "There is no filial son in bed for a long time." A close relative whose blood is thicker than water and has the gift of childbearing cannot bear this kind of hardship without "benefits", let alone you who don't know me. I don't know either of your men or women.
The relationship between husband and wife is by no means simple! At present, the divorce rate is high, and people who want to maintain a good marriage should think more about it.
There is a great way to generate wealth: those who give birth to it are many, those who eat it are few, those who do it are sick, and those who use it are comfortable, then the wealth will be constant and sufficient.
The meaning of this sentence is: The fundamental way to make money is to have more money earners and fewer users. Earn money harder and consume slower, so that wealth can always be enough.
When people live in this world, it is difficult to make money, and it is too easy to spend money. As the saying goes: making money is like a needle picking up soil, and spending money is like water pushing away sand.
If you are a migrant worker or ordinary person who makes money by "breaking eight petals with a drop of sweat", then you should understand the above sentence carefully!
Nowadays, various operators are doing their best to promote "I Tiao" and "online loans" under the guise of being beautiful and with the purpose of profit, which has led to many people being deeply in debt, and many college students have even committed suicide because of this.
We must be vigilant about this and never forget the virtues of hard work and thrift left to us by our ancestors and the way of making money by “taking in more and taking out less”!
