The thoughts of crucian carp

A fable is a false story used to illustrate a truth or lesson. The stories in fables are all allegories and comparisons, with the nature of satire or exhortation; most of the people or personified objects they write about are negative or have character flaws; they do not pay attention to the specific description of the image, and the length is short. Below I recommend two fables rich in philosophy. You are welcome to read and appreciate them. More exciting stories are available in Chinese Language Fans.

(1) Crucian carp’s thoughts

Crucian carp and herring are good friends. They live a peaceful life in a small pond. The pond was small and the food wasn't plentiful, but they had a great time.

One day, the crucian carp went out to play and did not find the herring, so he asked the turtle: "Do you know where my companion has gone?"

"I heard that it has moved." The turtle said, "It moved to a big pond, where the water is vast and the food is exquisite. It will live a good life!"

After hearing this, the crucian carp felt sour and his chest was clogged. For several days, it couldn't sleep well, couldn't eat, and couldn't get any energy.

"Oh, life is so boring! If you stay in this poor place, you will have nothing to ask for, and you will never get ahead in your life!" It said this to everyone it met.

A few days later, it met the turtle again.

"Tell me, the herring is not more capable than me, so why is it better than me?" it asked the turtle.

"Herring?" said the turtle, "I was about to tell you that the news I heard a few days ago was false. The herring was actually caught by someone. I don't know if it is dead or not at this moment. Live. We are all worried about it!"

"Really?" Crucian carp suddenly became happy, "Thank you for bringing me the good news!"

——Some people feel unhappy when they see others being better than themselves; when others encounter disaster, they become elated. This is an unhealthy mentality.

(2) The ability to be happy

God sometimes likes to play tricks.

There is an entrepreneur in Wenzhou with assets of hundreds of millions. But he envied a beggar. He believes that beggars live a better life than him, and he has endless work to do every day. He is also worried that his subordinates will say bad things about him, and he is even more afraid that they will betray him. He dare not go to busy places for fear that someone will take out a knife to chop him. , he felt that everything was full of danger.

He was all-powerful in Wenzhou, but when he returned home, he became a poor child. He could only sleep peacefully when his elderly mother hugged him gently like she did when she was a child.

There is a fable: The king saw a poor man in ragged clothes, happily basking in the sun every day. The king was puzzled, and finally thought that the poor man's rags contained the secret of happiness, so he sent someone to buy the poor man's rags, but he was still unhappy.

The wealthy businessman saw a psychiatrist, hoping that the doctor could cure his disease and make him happy. But in this world, happiness cannot be given from others, but is an ability of oneself. As long as a person has the ability to be happy, he will feel happy no matter what situation he is in.

A wealthy businessman is in a psychological crisis and needs to take a large amount of sleeping pills every day to

calm down. This is God's prank. It is said that wealth can make people confident, safe and stable, and can even bring happiness, but it may not. If you don't have that ability, wealth may bring you nothing.

There is a joke. An old cat is worried and frowning all day long, thinking about his own problems. He feels that he is the unhappiest cat in the world. One day, he saw a kitten spinning in circles chasing its tail, having a great time. The old cat asked: "How can you be so happy?" The kittens said: "I have happiness on my tail."

When the old cat came home, he also chased his tail in circles, and he really felt that I am very happy. The old cat suddenly realized: "It turns out that happiness is in the tail."

Of course this is a joke.

But happiness can be created, and we also have many such "tails" of happiness. If you think happiness is the fresh air when you wake up early in the morning, a sumptuous dinner, a sincere greeting, and all your wishes can be obtained by trusting hands, then happiness will come to you at any time.

In addition to these, there should be many answers, a glass of water when you are thirsty, a gust of wind when it is hot...as long as you are happy in your heart.

In Romania, there is a cemetery that many people like to go to. Because there are many happy words on this cemetery.

There is a tombstone that says: "My biggest hobby is drinking. Look, there is a wine bottle painted on my tombstone. I raise my glass to congratulate you and wish you good luck!"

There is also an article written on a tombstone: "I am the oldest in the village. I like to dance all my life. The two brothers Peter sing as backup... Come and see me. I can live to be ninety like me." Six, I hope you will live longer than me.”

There are many such epitaphs in this cemetery, attracting many tourists to stop. The rarely visited cemetery has become a tourist attraction, and the cemetery manager is surprised. Not as good as. And these happiness are actually left to the world by farmers, poor people, and even beggars who have entered the grave. They created happiness for themselves while alive, and brought happiness to the world after death.

A person needs to cultivate his or her ability to be happy, which is much more important than pursuing wealth.
