Blind people carrying lanterns can be summarized by that famous saying?

"The blind man holds the lamp" is a joke, which means that a person does things without thinking and only does unnecessary things. Recently, I got a new interpretation from 1 friends.

A blind man always walks at night with a bright lantern in his hand. Others were curious and asked him, "You can't see for yourself, why do you want to walk with a lantern?"

The blind man was overjoyed and said, "This truth is very simple. I don't hold lanterns to light up the road for myself, but to make it easy for others to see me, so as not to make mistakes, protect my own safety and help myself. "

Once I took a bus with three friends, so I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, and then told this story to share with him. My friend felt the same way when he heard this, and proved it with his own practical experience. He said, "I used to drive through the tunnel and never liked to leave the lights on. For one thing, the tunnel is not long, and for another, the light inside is not bad. One more thing, I really don't think it's necessary to open it and close it. Unexpectedly, one day I was hit by an oncoming truck and almost died. Afterwards just know, driving lights are for each other, because the car is through the tunnel, the other party from the light into the darkness, so the vision can't be adjusted, the opposite car doesn't turn on the light, it's too dangerous ... "

Five friends in the world, on the slow road of life, how lonely and dangerous you are (walking), fortunes come and go. No one knows where you come from or where you are going.

If you can learn to carry a lamp for the blind, illuminate the road for others and illuminate yourself. Always help and care for others, and others will help you. That's what the so-called "charity" means.
