There is no need to pursue flashy things. Behind the flashy material is an unfathomable abyss. Only by maintaining our own pure spiritual land and not caring too much about fame and wealth can we live a happy life.
Kind thoughts are enough to support the charm of our personality.
If you understand the riddle from the extremely confused place, you can awaken to the truth.
The friend who lasts easily is the one who doesn't care about getting any benefits from you and you don't care about the gains and losses.
What I understand about life and death
For life, it is the luck of each of us. Now that I'm here, I'm glad to be alive. Regarding death, I believe in fairness. We are all lining up there. I am not afraid to come to this world and lose everything and everyone. Because I was prepared before I died, I will leave, just one day.
Sometimes it is inevitable that you will be looked down upon by others, and that is not necessarily a good thing. Because at the same time you read him, for whatever reason.
To mix with the customs is to hide.
It's too late to read each other
It's too late to read each other. . . . . . .
Suddenly the clouds clear and the sun comes out
A good teacher and helpful friend, I have benefited a lot. Please read more.
Good reading, good reading, good reading!
