Bear the misfortune

The ancient Greek philosopher Bias said: "A person who cannot bear the misfortune is truly unfortunate." Pion also said the same thing: "Unbearable misfortune is a huge misfortune."

why would you said this?

The first is because, unfortunately, the lethality of a person depends on two factors, one is the degree of unhappiness, the other is the tolerance of misfortune, and the latter is more critical. A person who can bear the misfortune actually reduces the lethality of misfortune, especially not letting it hurt the core of his life. On the contrary, an unbearable person, the same misfortune, may cause him to be badly hurt, stunned, and even destroyed. Therefore, it seems that the same misfortune has been encountered, and the result is completely different.

Secondly, an unbearable person, even if he has not suffered misfortune for the time being, because his inner fragility, he seems to have buried the seeds of misfortune. In real life, the unhappiness of big and small is always inevitable, so it is only a matter of time before he is knocked down by misfortune.

To be a person who can bear the misfortune is an important part of the outlook on life. Tolerance is not only an ability, it comes from a strong will, but also an enlightenment, from the dignity of being a human being, the wisdom of keeping a distance from the encounter outside the body, and the belief that transcends the world.

Some encounters in life are without comfort or compensation, and can only be accepted in full. The only reason I have found for acceptance is that life is a tragedy as a whole, so there is no need to pursue the tragic details. Seneca said in a similar sense: "Why must we cry for part of life? Do you not see all the life in tears?"

The most inexplicable sorrow in life is in the details. Philosophy does not stop the bleeding of bloody wounds. For this pain, we have no choice but to endure. However, I believe that the detachment of the giant view that philosophy and religion reveals to people still has a role in helping us to separate ourselves from this pain and not let this pain completely destroy us.

Life is inevitably in crisis, and it is good to take the initiative to respond. If not, bear it and wait for it to pass.

Being trapped in any kind of desperation, as long as you are alive, you must treat the desperate as a life, accept all its pain, and refuse any tiny happiness that it may still have.

In the midst of desperation, the most taboo is to compare the desperate with normal life and think that it is not life, so it will not endure in one day. If you want to make a comparison, simply scale up and put your own suffering on the heavens of the universe to call it a name. In the face of the universe, a life with its pain is negligible and negligible.

The more you face the great suffering, the more you have to use large scales to measure the gains and losses of life. In the circulation of the years, all the blessings of life are over-the-top. Disasters and reconstruction are still an ordinary experience in the long river of history.

When we are young, we tend to be prone to illness, exaggerate our own suffering, and even boast of our own suffering. There are two reasons for this: one is the ignorance of life, the great pain that has not experienced great pain, and it is a big pain; the second is vanity, especially prominent in literary youth, taking pain as Decorating and taste, showing that you are different. It was only after the real vicissitudes of life that we realized that the little troubles of life are not worth talking about, and the great pain is unspeakable. We accept pain as an integral part of the essence of life and continue to live with it. If you have to say it, let's say something else, like the weather. Xin Qiji's word cloud "but the road is cool and cool for a fall" - this ending is meaningful, it is unspeakable, it is bitter humor.
