In the morning, a student's parents came to visit his child in the office. Because his child was ill, the class teacher called him. The parents came to the office, no cigarettes, handed to me, of course, is refused, because I don't smoke cigarettes, so don't pick, but the parents leave, some colleagues joked with me, pretending to be surprised: "this is a pack of Chinese cigarettes, dozens of pieces of speech, better" overflow is admiration, however, I did nothing, do not feel a thing, I disdain: as long as the cigarette is again good also are choking! Cigarettes don't make any difference to me, because I don't smoke at all. Wine, too, is neither good nor bad for me, and good wine imports are still hot. I remember in 1997, I went to Beijing, at a friend's house, the table is placed Moutai wine. Open seats, each poured a cup of, I am no exception, but, I tasted the wine, to be accompanied by a friend. He smiled at me, and said, "this is Moutai."!" "I'm sorry," I said, "it's really good wine."! However, a good wine is a hot sauce for a person who does not drink.The only reliable criterion of truth is always to be consistent. There are too many people in the world seeking alcohol and tobacco and the pursuit of alcohol and tobacco. In fact, the best pursuit is not hobbies, the pursuit of grades is endless, and the pursuit of a higher grade is nothing more than a one-time sensory stimulation, followed by higher desire distress. The truest enjoyment is the pure dislike. Today, the pursuit of material pleasure is almost insane. Eating is better than novelty; wearing more than brand; car is more luxurious; living is more spacious; money is more than that; official is smaller than size...... The more the more unhappy, the more than the more to chase, the more than the more lost self, the more the more pain, the less happy! In fact, happiness does not depend on material, but on people's world outlook and mentality. Socrates, one of the great philosophers, visited the bazaar one day with the instigation of several students. The students all sorts of gossip and said: "the market a lot, there are a lot of good, good-looking and fun, there are countless fresh stuff, clothing, food, shelter, all aspects of everything. If you go, will be fruitful." He agreed with the student's suggestion and decided to go and have a look. On the second day, as soon as Socrates came into the class, the students rounded up and enthusiastically asked him to tell us about the harvest of the fair trip. He looked at everyone and paused and said, "I did have a great deal of this trip. I found that there were so many things I didn't need in the world."." Then Socrates said, "when we are rushing for a luxurious life, the happy life is far away from us.". Happy life is often very simple, for example, the best room, is the necessary items, a lot, there is no use of goods, not many. A man should be content, do nothing, be content, be learned, or be content." (from May 2006 "thinking and wisdom") the greatest happiness is not the matter of endless pursuit, possession and enjoyment, but they do not need to know what the self-sufficient discovery, self enjoyment, the supreme happiness of life is not a luxury goods, but practical items. The Spring Festival in 2014, on the thirty, eat meals, I went to visit a family, this is not what the master monk lived in the temple temple, but in a pond of water would leave the shed. When I arrived there, small shed door open, people do not see, there was not a sound, I breezed into the door, the master or not, I was shocked at the scene, shed ten square meters, there is a bed, a bed of bamboo frame in brick, with some the grass and broken bag, pad with a single bed side broken old quilts and blankets, bed is a 60 cm small square table, on the table was a rice cooker, the table on the snakeskin bag some meters, there is a 30 cm long tree on the edge of the bag slightly wider. Two days to do a tree small stool bed on the other side of a Buddha posted just above the wall, this is all the master belongings. While I was astonished to see the pain, the master came in with two plastic baskets. One basket was rice, and the other one was cabbage. The master looked pleased to see me, but I was very sad to say: "the master monk master, what you are not here, life is not too hard?" Master very calmly said: "not bitter, many things, more troubles."." I left a bag of rice, 400 yuan, bid farewell to master, this is full of firecrackers, every family is happy, but my mind was lingering is: "something more, worry too much." Material enjoyment is not necessarily happiness; material poverty is not necessarily misfortune. The happiness of life, without peace, indifference, self-sufficiency, happiness requires wisdom, knowing what you do not need is the greatest happiness in life.
