Can you do whatever you want and be innocent? What does that mean?

It means that things can't be completely according to their own wishes, but they just ask for their own hearts in the process.

From-Ming Liu Bowen said to himself, "I can't do what I want, but I want to be innocent." .

How can we achieve perfection and contentment? But when asking yourself, there is nothing to be ashamed of.

"How can I be as good as I think, but I want to be innocent inside" has been advocated since ancient times. Many famous people take this as their motto (such as Lin Zexu and Zou Taofen) and often write it as a banner and hang it in their rooms to motivate themselves.

There are inevitably many unpleasant things in life. Some people choose "but since the water is still flowing, although we cut it with a sword, sorrow and joy are still there, although we drown it with wine" to turn over endlessly, use alcohol to kill grief and indignation, use nicotine to smoke the truth, and use useless gestures to make up for their mistakes. You know, these things can not only sober people up, but also reveal a person's nature.

Extended data:

Liu Bowen, a strategist of the Ming emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, said to himself, "I can't do what I want, but I want to be innocent." It tells us such a truth, life is alive, everything can't be satisfactory, it can't be perfect, but being a person with a clear conscience has nothing to be ashamed of.

When people live in the world, they always associate with others and have activities, which will always have a certain impact on the people around them and the world around them, and will inevitably be criticized by them.

The world is so big, the society is so complicated, and people's cultivation level is different. Different people have different opinions on what they have done. As the saying goes, "Different people have different opinions, and the wise have different opinions". This is a natural thing, so don't pay too much attention to it. However, some people are very upset and upset because of this, which is completely unnecessary. As long as they have a clear conscience, let others talk.

Xu is a talent. He has a wide range of knowledge and is good at compiling history. The "ode to poetry" advocated by him had a great influence on the literary world in the early Tang Dynasty. Together with Fang and Du Ruhui, he was called one of the eighteen bachelors by Emperor Taizong.

Once, Emperor Taizong heard that some people doubted Xu's ability and ability, so he asked Xu, "I think you are the only minister with both ability and integrity, but some people don't think so. Why? "

Xu replied: Spring rain is as expensive as oil. Farmers like it to moisten crops, but pedestrians hate it to produce mud on the road. The moon in autumn is like a mirror. Beautiful women like its bright brilliance to enjoy, but thieves hate its brilliance.

All over the world, everyone has such a sigh, not to mention me? Although I am ignorant, I know that everything can't be satisfactory, but I want to be innocent.

Xu Jingzong went on to say: I don't have delicacies and good wine to adjust other people's tastes, so I can't listen to other people's gossip, even if I do, I can't believe it. The emperor attended the class and the minister was killed for no reason; As a father, listening to similar words will kill his son.

Couples will divorce after listening to similar words; Friends will break up after listening to similar words; Neighbors will alienate each other after listening to similar words; Relatives will cut off contact after hearing similar words. A seven-foot man should beware of a three-inch golden tongue. Some people's tongues are like Longquan swords. If they say it, they will kill people without seeing blood.

Hearing this, Emperor Taizong realized the truth and said, "What you said is very reasonable, and I should realize it."
