When life is at the bottom of the pot

As the saying goes: "People go high and the water flows down." The high place represents power and status, represents strength and achievement, and represents honor and glory. People always want to climb as high as possible. Never stop falling and never fall into the trough. However, in fact, whether it is life, career or love, it always recurs between high and low, presenting a parabolic shape, from low to high, reaching its apex, and then going from high to low. Therefore, we always have to face the gains and losses in life, success and failure, sadness and joy, and separation.

When I was young, I watched the process of flying swallows. They flew in an arc. Before each flight, they always fell down and then strove upwards. At first I didn't understand the reason. Until now, I realized that the process of the swallow's decline was to accumulate strength, so that it would fly higher and farther next time. Suddenly, I realized that the low point of life is only a kind of power, in order to go to another higher apex. So when I am in a low place, what is the sadness?

Under normal circumstances, when people are at the height of their lives, they are always full of enthusiasm, arrogance, arrogance, immersed in the glory of the past, and thus stop. In fact, it is already the end of the strong, and will soon slide to the lower end of life. When people are in the low places of life, they are always pessimistic and disappointing, and they are determined to die. They don’t know, and they are coming to another beautiful spring. There is a very classic line in "Dwelling House": "A person's life is a curve of ups and downs, sometimes high, sometimes low. When you are low, you should be happy, because you will soon go to a high place, but when you are tall, In fact, it is very dangerous. You can't see the coming trough." And when your life is at the bottom of the pot, as long as you are willing to work hard, no matter which direction you are going, it is upward.

People do not have a thousand days, and flowers are not red. A person's life is always full of bumps and tribulations, and he will always encounter one or the other misfortune. When you are in a high place, you must be arrogant, be aware of the potential dangers, and constantly strive to make progress. When you are in a low place, don't give up on yourself, don't be pessimistic and desperate, see positive and beneficial side in everything, make full use of your own advantages, and wait for the next opportunity. Because the low place is only a temporary stay, but the accumulation of strength, once the time is ripe, to achieve the required energy, it will be shocked and reached another ideal situation. In many cases, great success often leads to greater failure, and temporary frustration often leads us to success.

There are three realms in life, just like meditation. At the beginning of the meditation, the mountain is the mountain, the water is the water; the meditation is realized, the mountain is not the mountain, the water is not the water; when the epiphany, the mountain is still the mountain, and the water is still water.

When I walked through the week of my life and then looked back at my life, I was surprised to find that there was no height and low in life, just a process of constant pursuit and climbing.
