The more your want, the less you can part with. The less you can part with, the more burdens you have. The more burdens you have, the less easy you feel. So we must simplify our life. We can unload many burdens off our shoulders with our own power.
How to simplify our life? The quickest and best way is to ask less. We cannot get everything all the time. Even if we get everything, we cannot enjoy everything, so why don’t we just let go of some and keep some? Once I hoped my friends could call or text me everyday. After a period, I understood that I was so disappointed just because I asked too much. I went against the reality.
Once I had many materials in my USB. Of course some were left long before. I didn’t want to part with them so they occupied much space. One day I found I could no longer store materials because all the space had been occupied. I realized how wrong I was.
A human’s brain is like a USB. If it is occupied with many things that are past, waste, or useless, then it cannot be used any longer. We should clear up it after a certain period so that it can take in new things. We are not god so we cannot get everything at hands. Remember; Part with a part and keep a part. Simplify your life.Enjoy what you are doing. Life is too short to feel sad, disappointed and regretful.
My brother said he wanted to return to school on the phone:"I hate this place. I am left alone at home and have to endure all the quiteness." "Why not visit neighbours?" asked I. "There are only several households and all the cousin brothers and sisters of my relatives work outside!" "Too bad." "I want to come back, desperately." "Better not," I think to myself,"It is a waste of time ,money and energy."
He went back to Huang Gang City just a couple days ago. Now he feels annoyed by the life at home and intended to come back to school. I still remember how he hoped to leave school to spend the vacation at home before he went back. What a changable person! I learn how important it is to adapt ourselves to the environment we choose. To enjoy life wherever you are, find the right and enjoyful things you can do. Be active to arrange for your life and make changes when you feel bad. You won't miss the joy in every place you go to. As I am following my brother's steps to go back home tomorrow, I am ready to adapt myself to the life at home. East or West, home is the best! Hating home environment just indicates that you haven't adapted yourself from the school life to family life! I am going to make it!
In a training class for a part-time job, I met a man who openned my eyes.He was a teacher who gave pupils composition classes and other trainings. He can be regarded as a guiding teacher to a world I seldom entered before.
We went to the training place very early. However, only after up to one hour did he turn up. Obviously, he stood us up. Finally he came and made an excuse for his coming late. We felt very angry but kept silent.
Then he introduced his course and talked about his journey to success. As a man who had no money and positions in society, he robbed a businessman of sixty thousand yuan thus making his first fortune. With those money, he pioneered his way ahead. How did he "succeed" step by step? He made a lot of friends who are celebrities in the education field. By depending on them, he made his way to do many significant things for his success.
He told us the most important thing in one's life was to make the right friends. Then we can benefit a lot from them. He took himself as an example and showed how important social relationship was. According to my understanding, he succeeds because of his friends.
My friends and I don't think his life value is valuable. One of my friends told me the point of making friends was to get and share happiness. If you focus on benefiting from friends, you can't make true friends.
In my opinion,you can't make friends aiming at taking advantage of them. Friends can be helpers at times, but they are not your tools towards success. We should focus on the friendship more than the benefits.
