close and distant

I have seen a video in which a person said that treating strangers as relatives and relatives as strangers. This sentence was said by a person with a dull face and dull eyes. It was really weird.

Treating strangers as relatives is something that even a saint cannot do. If the saint really wanted to do this, it would be annoying to death if nothing else. Although sages have the heart to help the world, they only use their deeds to benefit the world. This does not mean that they treat every stranger like a relative, caring carefully and taking care of them wholeheartedly. For example, Shen Nong tasted hundreds of herbs, and his merits benefited for thousands of years. This does not mean that he took care of everyone.

Zixia said, "We are all brothers in the four seas." But if there are conditions, it means being like-minded. When we first meet others, it is also based on certain conditions.

Hong Xiuquan said that all women in the world are sisters and all men in the world are brothers. But that's just talk.

Some people say that this is the words of pyramid schemes. I believed it. Unfortunately, the MLM leader does not treat the deceived MLM personnel as relatives, so the MLM personnel can only pick up leftovers and drink gruel.

If it makes sense to treat relatives as strangers, then it also makes sense to treat people as animals. Obviously it doesn't make sense.

Some people say that those who do not love themselves will not love others. Some people say that those who do not respect themselves will not respect others.

Some people say that treating relatives as strangers is just an excuse for bad people to kill their relatives.

In the minds of pyramid sellers, treating their relatives as strangers is the reason why they deceive them.

If a person sees and hears that his relatives and friends are in pain, illness, or disaster, and does not feel the slightest pain in his heart, then he has done it and truly treated his relatives as strangers. people. None of us should be this kind of person.

When you hear bad news from relatives and friends, you will be depressed. When you hear good news from relatives and friends, you will be excited even if you don't get a little bit of glory. This is human nature. Therefore, even when we are in the most difficult time, we must know that there are relatives and friends who are watching us, caring about us, and sharing our joys and sorrows with us. Some people say that there are always extremely difficult places in the world, and those who can get through them are heroes.

Zhuge Liang said, "Be close to virtuous ministers and stay away from villains." Therefore, we must distinguish between closeness and distance to people.

Even if we have the desire to help the world, we still have to be close to others. It is difficult to distinguish between close relatives and distant relatives, how to know oneself and how to know others.

Being able to distinguish between closeness and distance is also very helpful in cultivating one's own personality.
