"It's true that you can come across articles like these every day, teaching you how to overcome difficulties, escape external pressures, rediscover yourself, and so on—a series of positive energy posts that leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, as if you've undergone a transformation. In reality, it's quite accurate to say that many of the stresses in our lives are self-inflicted. We often place too much importance on what others think of us, which exhausts us.
For example, when you didn't have much money and rode an electric bike, you might have been afraid of running into someone you know and losing face. However, once you started a business and bought a car, you may not have that fear when riding the electric bike anymore. In essence, nothing has changed about you or the electric bike. Your material circumstances remain the same, so why did your feelings change?
This reveals a simple truth about the world: ""The ten directions are empty of meaning; beings create distinctions."" In the end, when you strip away the superficial layers of everyone's lives, it's all pretty similar—chicken feathers scattered all over. Yet, people's experiences vary greatly, and the difference lies in their thoughts and attitudes.
So, it's a good idea to take things lightly and not overthink them. The more you dwell on things, the more exhausted you become. Instead, live life lightly and carefree, as it often leads to a happier existence." |
