A secluded life has traditionally been deemed, as it seems, the supreme state of happiness, although such a loofness and retirement breed loneliness as well. Few people in fact end up as genuine recluses,whose contentment does not suffice to construe what happiness is for all.As a common saying goes, while the “lesser hermit” lives in seclusion in the country, the “greater hermit” does so in the city. Not necessarily in solitude does reside true happiness which can be found in busy streets rather than in the woods.
------《The moral book》 of Lao zi
Even though sometimes I have to face filth with pretending smile in order to maximum my own profits and retian my peace in heart.I must condemn and feel ashamed instead of viewing them as regular behaviors when I am solituded since I do not need to cover myself in that kind of circumstance.At the same time,I will cherish every single moments that light of human beings shine to my soul, which of couse is quite few.Thats the way I treat the outsideworld.
My stragites toward myself is as follow.The pursuits of my life is to always keep my innermost being at a tranquility,satisfied and calm condition.Read books that contains intellect of former sages,summarize our experience in our daliy life and reduce the waste of our precious time.The three things mentioned above is the most powerful way to achieve my pursuit as far as I know.The entertianment is quiet necessary too.It is hard to keep the balance between entertianment and keeping heart peace as I might overentertian so that I can not feel peace and satisfied in my heart.But controlling and inhibitting my desires and entertianment will sure to upset myself.I comprehend that sometimes my desires take the upper hand under my logical thinking in another word which is rationality.It is sure a common weakness shared by us.I was and will try my best to achieve the most vital pursuit.
Those words come from the deepest places of my soul.Written down to reveal my elementary aspirations.Among many aims of writing, firm and intensify my willpower.Perhaps no one or few fellows will ever cast a sight on it.I do wish those who have patience to read are able to have a clear understanding of my thoughts.You might also get some new ideas by reading this.It is the value of writing it down.
