A bird was caught alive by a hunter, and the bird opened his mouth and said to the hunter, "O noble lord! I don't know how many cattle and sheep you have eaten, and I don't know how many camels have been slaughtered by you, although you are still not satisfied, and you still don't have enough to eat, but my little skeleton is really not enough for you to stuff your teeth, why don't I give you three pieces of advice, you let me go!
Then you'll know if I'm smart or not. You don't have much to lose, but you get a spiritual gain. The hunter asked
How do you tell me your three pieces of advice? The bird replied, "I will speak first when it is in your hands; When I fly up the eaves, the second will be spoken; After that, I flew up to the branch and said the third.
These three pieces of advice will guarantee you happiness throughout your life. After saying this, the bird, which was still in the hunter's hand, gave its first advice: "Do not believe the empty words of men."
When he had said that, the hunter let it go, and the bird flew to the eaves. Then the bird gave the second piece of advice: "The dead should not be pursued, that is, let the past pass!"
Don't regret it again. And then he said, "Do you know?"
There is a huge pearl inside me. I swear to heaven: If you have this pearl, you will be able to keep your children and grandchildren happy.
You lost it, and the loss was great. When the hunter heard this, he could not help but weep bitterly. The bird said:
Why can't you heed my second advice, 'The dead can be chased'? Water under the bridge! Don't regret it!
Then it flew to the branch of a tree in the courtyard and said with a smile: "My third piece of advice is: Don't believe any nonsense I don't weigh even three dirams (1).
Wouldn't it be a joke to say that you have a huge pearl in your belly! The hunter woke up from a dream, and then he stopped crying. Said:
Give me your third piece of advice! The bird said, "Didn't I make it all clear?"
After saying that, he spread his wings and flew away. If a fool does not wake up from his deep sleep, advice to him is like sowing seeds on saline ground. The cracks of stupidity cannot be repaired, and the sowing of the seeds of wisdom is in vain.
The three pieces of advice of the bird are based on two points: one is to take the facts as the basis and not listen to any lies and irresponsible statements of people; The second is to focus on the present and not dwell on the past, whether it is sad or glorious. With these two points, you can be optimistic and comfortable, healthy and long, just like the bird blesses
will keep you happy for the rest of your life. 1) Diram, a unit of weight in ancient Iran. Excerpt from The Revelation of Masnavi

The size of the shark bai
Once I went to the ocean with friends
Museum. A traveler asked the manager, "How big will this shark be inside?" The caretaker pointed to the aquarium and said, "It depends on how big your aquarium is." ”
The traveler asked, "Will it be as big as an aquarium?" ”
The big truth: the environment can change a person's mind. The environment can limit one's mind, and one can limit one's own mind. Don't frame yourself, and when you can't change your environment, start by changing yourself.

Eternally grateful.
The fifteenth year of Xuangong is recorded
Bai Spring and Autumn.
During the Du period, Wei Wuzhizi, the father of Wei Wei, the doctor of the Jin Kingdom, had a concubine who was very fond of Dao. Before Wei Wuzi died, he asked Wei to give him the concubine a funeral. After Wei Wuzi died, Wei Wei married the concubine favored by his father to someone else.
Later, the Qin general Du Hui led his troops to attack the Jin state, and the king of Jin ordered Wei to lead his troops to resist. When the two armies were fighting fiercely, an old man suddenly appeared on the battlefield, he broke the grass on the ground into many knots and tripped Du Hui, so Wei captured Du Hui alive, and the Qin army was defeated. That night, Wei Wei had a dream in which the old man during the day said to him:
I am the father of the woman you married, and I have come to repay you on the battlefield. ”
The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of Yang Zhen cites the "Continuation of Qi Harmonic Records" records: When Yang Bao was a child in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he saw a dying little yellow finch in the mountains and forests. Yang Bao saw that it was pitiful, so he took it home and took care of it carefully.
After the little yellow finch's injury was completely healed, Yang Bao released it. That night, Yang Bao had a dream that there was a boy in yellow with four jade rings in his mouth, saying that it was a gift to Yang Bao, and wishing Yang Bao's descendants to become great officials for several generations. Later, Yang Bao's son, grandson, and great-grandson really became big officials and enjoyed all the glory and wealth.
According to these two legends, people summarized the idiom "knotted grass ring", which is used as a metaphor for gratitude and virtue, and will not be forgotten until death.
Later, the "knot grass ring" was used as a gift of thanksgiving.

Illness is also a kind of life experience, and it can even be regarded as a unique experience. Of course, this trip is risky, but is it safe to go rafting on the big river? The difference is that rafting can be prepared in advance, and getting sick is usually caught off guard; Drifting is conscious bravery, illness is forced resistance; Drifting, success or failure has a glory, but it is always inconvenient to boast when you are sick.
However, there is always a reward for traveling: increasing knowledge in a foreign land, cultivating temperament in famous mountains and rivers, tempering the will in torrents and dangers, and knowing how to be satisfied step by step when you are sick. When I had a fever, I realized how refreshing the days without a fever were.
When I coughed, I realized how peaceful my throat was when I didn't cough. When I first got into a wheelchair, I always thought, "If I can't walk upright, isn't I losing my human characteristics?" Then the bushes rotted and the sky was dark.
It wasn't until I had bedsores again, and I could only lie down with envy and regret for several days, only to see how sunny the day was. Later, he suffered again"Uremia", often drowsy and unable to think, it is even more nostalgic for the old days. Finally woke up:
