Happiness is hidden in the brow, happiness is written in the corners of the mouth, and wealth is in the heart.

Time is too thin, fingers are too wide, unconsciously, half a life has passed.

Along the way, I have experienced a lot and seen through a lot.

I used to think that the greatest success in life was a successful career and a carefree life.

Now I find that true happiness lies in inner stability and abundance.

In this life, people have a harmonious family, a library in their bellies and a road under their feet, which is more than millions of wealth.

family harmony

In the recent hit "Xiao Shede", there is a plot that makes people feel deeply.

Before his retirement, Zhang Guoli, the father of the South, was the respected vice president of the Design Institute.

But this successful person in everyone's eyes, life is far from as happy as everyone imagined.

Daughter Nan Li and stepdaughter Tian Yulan have always been at odds. As long as they are together, there will be conflicts at home.

The two men are either secretly comparing terms with their children or complaining about their father's partiality.

Every family gathering is very lively at the beginning, but it always ends in discord.

On several occasions, the two daughters slammed the door angrily with their children without saying a word.

Leaving only the old man slumped on the sofa, sighing.

On the other hand, another group of families in the play, the Mi Tao family, live happily although they don't have much money.

In order to give her daughter a better education, Mi Tao's father and Mi Tao's mother took two jobs.

The sensible Mi Tao understands his parents' hard work, studies late into the night every day and voluntarily asks to give up the cram school.

Although the days are tight, the three of us have never blushed, but have been holding hands and facing the difficulties of life together.

They don't live in luxury houses, they don't need luxury goods, and they are even embarrassed to eat fruit.

But all the photos of the family together make people feel very warm.

I can't help but think of a sentence:

"Family alienation, living at the top is boring; Family members are harmonious, and living in a bamboo shed is also full of thoughts. "

When people are young, they always feel that the greatest success in life is to spell out a world outside.

At a certain age, when you see more chicken feathers in your life, you will find:

Family harmony and beauty are more meaningful than anything else.

No matter how rich a person is, it is not enviable if there are constant quarrels at home.

Family harmony is the highest state of showing off wealth in the second half of life.

Small things don't make trouble, life has temperature; It's a big deal, Qi Xin, and the day is coming.

No amount of money can buy the warmth and laughter flowing at home.

Collect books on the abdomen

I was very touched to see some photos shared by @Eee on the Internet the other day.

On the first floor of Wuhan Library, there are a bunch of old people who love books all the year round, rain or shine.

Some of them come to school on time with crutches every day, although they are inconvenient to move.

Some old people have poor eyesight and can't read the words in the book clearly.

Just put the book on the table and read it word by word with a magnifying glass in one hand.

Sometimes, when reading books and newspapers borrowed from each other, people will visit each other's desks and exchange recent reading experiences:

There are poems and songs, classical literature, life experiences and recent current events.

Just like the blogger's essay in the photo:

"Through simple clothes and weak bodies, I saw the thickness of their hearts."

The more people I meet over the years, the more I feel:

True wealth lies not in how much wealth you have, but in inner peace and abundance.

Although some people wear ordinary clothes, they have extraordinary conversation and outstanding temperament.

There is a book in the belly, which is always the lowest threshold of nobility and the highest realm of showing off wealth.

As the saying goes:

"No matter how much material satisfaction there is, it is only a physical need, and spiritual abundance is the real advanced."

In this life, only reading and growing are the most worthwhile.

The wisdom integrated into our bones and blood is our greatest confidence in walking in the world.

There is a road under your feet.

We always stare at other people's roads, for fear of being overtaken, and live a tired and unhappy life.

However, we have forgotten our mission in life, which is just to walk well.

I watched The Reader a while ago and was deeply moved by the experience of Mr. Xu Yuanchong, a centenarian.

Since 18 translated his first book, he has never stopped on the road of translation.

Over the years, some people who have studied and worked with him have become academic masters and some have become well-known writers.

But for most of the first half of his life, he was just an obscure and poorly paid university teacher.

But the rhythm of others never disturbed Mr. Wang's heart.

Over the past 80 years, he has translated hundreds of Yu Ben's ancient and modern works in English, Russian, French and other languages.

Countless days and nights, as long as there is a book, a pen and a cup of tea, he will enjoy himself and be satisfied.

I think of a sentence:

Never compare your work with others, as long as you are diligent, every road can reach the other side of life;

Never compare children with others, nothing is more important than peace and happiness on the road to growth;

Never compare your income with others. No amount of money can buy someone who loves you and a warm home.

After all, the world belongs to us and has nothing to do with others.

Be true to your heart, do what you are doing, and take the road under your feet.

Living this life at your own pace is the greatest happiness.

Yi Shu has a saying that has always won my heart:

"When I was forty years old, I was in good health and had a little savings. My husband is considerate and my children are obedient.

There is a job that you really like, and that is success. You don't have to be famous or rich. "

In this life, the house doesn't have to be big, but the family is the most important;

Life is not necessarily better than many people, contentment is happiness.

Give us a compliment. May the rest of our lives be loved, done and expected.
