When I was young, I fought for fame and fortune everywhere. It was not until I suffered a loss and stumbled that I realized that being a man is great wisdom.
"I don't argue with anyone, and I don't care who I argue with ... My hands are baking the fire of life to keep warm. The fire has withered and I'm ready to go.
This is a poem by the English poet Rand, translated by Mr. Jiang Yang. Some people say that this poem is also a portrayal of Jiang Yang's life.
In this bustling world, many people want to get ahead. However, Jiang Yang is not like this. She reads, writes, translates and studies just because she is in a mood, without a trace of fame and fortune.
In turbulent times, Jiang Yang just wants to have a quiet desk. When translating the manuscript, others can translate 1000 words a day. She does not compare with others, but carefully translates 500 words a day.
It is this unhurried attitude that makes Mr. Jiang Yang's version of Don Quixote have quality and weight, so that it is called the best translation.
Lin Yutang once wrote in "The Wind is Trembling": No struggle is a great struggle. If there is no dispute, then the whole world will not dispute it.
At a certain age, you will understand that when we are caught in the competition for fame and fortune, our greed will expand.
Fighting with life will increase the burden of life; Fighting with relatives will aggravate contradictions and alienate feelings, which is not worth the loss; Quarrel with your lover will make life more trivial and restless; Fight with friends, and friends will drift away. ...
What you strive for is reason, what you lose is emotion, and it is yourself who gets hurt in the end.
Bai Luomei said: "Life is a game of chess. There is always nothing we can do to win or lose. When you are confused, you are mostly in the bureau. When you realize it, people are already outside the bureau.
If you look at everything in the world with a peaceful mind, it is simple and clear. If you look at the world with a complex mentality, you will be fascinated by the world. "
Life is only a few decades, and youth is fleeting. If you dwell on an embarrassing thing for too long, you will be upset, miserable, tired and sad.
Therefore, we must learn to let go. You can get out if you don't fight.
Once upon a time, our temper was as stubborn as a donkey.
A little friction in love can make us turn around and leave; A little disappointment at work can make us submit our resignation the next day; When someone says something unpleasant, it will make us feel angry all day.
Over time, the same thing happened again, only to find that we not only learned to be tolerant and forbearing, but also learned to laugh at gossip and not take it seriously.
A few years ago, Jay Chou was called "garbage" by the founder of Ke Fan for no reason. When Hannah Quinlivan attended the event, he was asked about Jay Chou being scolded. Unexpectedly, Sister Tianwang calmly replied, "I feel a little irresponsible when I say these words, but just ignore him."
A "ignore him" is enough to see the law.
There is a proverb in North Korea: Kicking a stone in a rage only hurts your toes.
There are many ways to deal with problems, one is anger, the other is forbearance, and the other is indifference. But anger is obviously the least desirable.
As the saying goes, it's good to be angry for a while, but this is a crematorium.
When people are angry, their brains are congested and they lose their minds. 80% of the decisions made at this time will be wrong, and the price they need to pay is heavy.
Violent people always go from one extreme to the other, while good-natured people are like sunny days with light everywhere.
Everyone has a temper, it is instinct to lose your temper, and repression is a skill.
I hope time can also give you peace without noise.
Some time ago, an online celebrity took a photo of himself sitting in the cockpit of an airplane, which led to the news that her boyfriend's captain was banned from flying for life.
A plane is related to the lives of hundreds of people on board, and irrelevant personnel are not allowed to enter the cockpit.
But female students are eager to try their vanity and show off on the internet; In order to satisfy his girlfriend, his boyfriend knowingly ruined his future.
Is it sad? Honestly, it's really hard.
But there must be something pitiful about the poor. The beauty of wood in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. So arrogant, I should have thought it would end like this.
In fact, truly outstanding people often do not show obvious signs and hype, but are low-key, cautious, modest and polite, and are willing to be an unknown ordinary person.
Because they deeply understand that humility can go further.
Just like when we were young, we liked to keep up with the joneses, liked to show off in a high-profile way, and were often proud of a little success. Later, after much experience, I finally understand that there are days behind us, people outside us, things are impermanent, changeable, high-profile disasters, low-key and peaceful.
Low-key humility, why show off; People who live to the extreme must be simple and simple.
There is an old saying: "rigidity is easy to break, but flexibility is eternal." Low-key is attitude, not showing off is wisdom.
Not showing off is your absolute recognition of yourself.
As the saying goes, the more a person lacks, the more he likes to show off. Mature rice has been bowing its head; A truly rich person will not dazzle everyone.
Money is just a piece of paper, and it will not be used after a hundred years; Fame and fortune are just a dream, and people will be empty after they go.
Being a man, you don't need to show off, because the master is often hidden by your side. Only modesty can make you fly higher; Only by keeping a low profile will we go further.
Whether you are rich or beautiful, don't be arrogant. Be modest and the world will be friendly to you.
