Not long ago, when reading a friends blog, this netizen reference to the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle's words: the essence of life is the pursuit of happiness. And to say that when you have a good mood, you have others to experience the beautiful life does not fall. Good mood allows you to generate upward force, so that you in good spirits, liveliness, so you turn their swords into plowshares, of disease for health, to help you get the knowledge, a knot YIYOU, to create a harmonious, successful career. Good flowers have kindly tours, only if you have a good mood, and will enjoy life less than other people appreciate good scenery.
These scenarios pursuit of happiness for his poetic description is, indeed, an enviable and understandable.
However, this pleasure is exactly how to how to pursue to such a wonderful happy scenario? Did you say you was moved from the pursuit of happiness, happiness will it? Source of happiness, where is it? Material rich spiritual poverty Happy? Or spiritually rich material poverty quiet comfort happy?
I thought, Aristotle said the essence of life is the pursuit of happiness, this is not wrong, the question is how a pursuit of law? Happy to get in the pursuit of what? What kind of happiness is the true happiness of life? I think that each and every one of us to seriously consider, because this is the essence of life issues.
I think that true happiness comes from the acquisition of wisdom, popular people in the pursuit of wisdom in order to really get pleasure. Eventually, he is different from the general animal, he is a labor progress and civilization by the brain is a senior animal, he has a rich spiritual life. The spiritual life is to dominate the people really living the ultimate source of happiness, and spiritual life is inextricably linked with the wisdom of labor. So, people, and only rely on the wisdom of the labor will be happy together happiness together. Because this labor with an unprecedented creative color and rich cultural heritage. So this happiness is happiness, is unparalleled.
But needs to be emphasized is that wisdom is not equal smart, smart as a good foundation of wisdom, but you can not think he is wise is wisdom. The wisdom of a sudden things produced a brood of labor with a long-term, and intelligent, often with an agile congenital facial perception. Path of wisdom that can make the life more logical and heritage, clearer and more people living target direction clear, step more determined, more calm pace. Even by such as blow, or make the encounter as such setbacks, he can keep a clear mind and firm determination, even if it is temporary for the ultimate purpose of some grievance or misunderstanding, it is also worth the more unusual significance, because he determined that he received the final results.
The smart you often do not have long-term and predictability, often with uncertainty and firmness in the footsteps of its life, the results are often accidental mostly. The wisdom can engender fly ethereal soul and serene spiritual world, and clever only tend to bring a temporary joy, but also a lack of clear direction and soul traction.
I write to you, reminds me of the teaching period class students presented the "phenomenon of the top ten. From a development point of view, the top ten students are then the class learning diligent scores better class, but later in life, whether they on how the university learned what expertise they work and life is often a lack of wisdom and fun color, most of them belonging to the law-abiding, nothing exciting swimmingly live that class; Although we often say that nothing exciting is true, but that is relative to the Taichetaiwu in a new a higher starting point on said realm of life, is certainly not flat light, not as a realm of intellectual color class. So, when the teacher pay more attention mischievous, intelligent and playful, fun kind of unfettered students. Because their development is not a set, is simply left to its own to go with the flow, and thus they lack the burden of the lack of constraints, just a little to be guided or touched, they can adapt to the rapid change of social development and the pace of life, its wisdom can unwittingly be tempered and sublimated in the social life of the trend, so they create own wealth, but also enjoy the happiness of his wisdom.
However, regardless of the proceeds smoothly, nothing exciting or or or social life like a duck, if it were not for the soul of traction, nothing exciting life, such as a glass of water is insipid;, but so-called smoothly is a straight line, not much memorable or enjoy the scenery; broader its duck to water, but only an ornamental fish is just as difficult for him to have a soul wings to fly up watch heaven and earth, the more beautiful life experience. Modern poet Bian Zhilin a pole with philosophical poem: "You're standing on the bridge watching the scenery / look at the scenery, people see you upstairs" good poetry often can only sense can not be conveyed in words, but it does describe a life realm. I often inform themselves in this realm, not to be too self-righteous, do not be too easy to meet, "Hill Restaurant Filled mountains outside there is day one Master" often think about their own insignificance or lack of joy or happiness The feeling will never exist in the relentless pursuit. Who stopped the footsteps of the pursuit, whose joy or happiness would come to an end, even if he says it is happy or happiness, it was not worthy of envy or praise. Wisdom something away from him because he had stopped the wisdom of thinking, his feeling of joy and happiness, but is based on a narrow and low-level aspects of life, life wonders little sleep solution, the aware of everything in the universe is very narrow, experience and perception of happiness naturally shallow laudable.
So wisdom can save the human soul, the soul of people can fly freely like a bird. People with the wisdom of an outstanding and where the material world in his eyes just a tool and a symbol, and not the pursuit of the ultimate purpose. He will not idly in self follow nothing exciting smoothly self-indulgence, not through the pursuit of unlimited spiritual world to make their own material world penniless. His goal seems to be to take on a broader mission for themselves, but also provide a live a better quality of life art more.
French writer Victor? Hugo famously said: "is broader than the ocean, sky, wider than the sky is the soul of the world of the human soul." How lofty pursuit of the people will be more lofty . So, the wisdom of the people will not stop producing sparkling shine voiced according to lead our indomitable pursuit continues, happiness will accompany forever.
