Stories about happiness, philosophical stories about happiness

A rich man has a lot of gold and silver, but he always feels unhappy. He wanted happiness to be somewhere else, so he decided to find it. On the move.

Before, he forgot to carry many treasures of gold and silver on his back. But after walking a lot, he still didn't find happiness, so he sat down on the side of the mountain road in frustration. At this time a farmer sang.

Singing and walking down the mountain.

The rich man asked the farmer, "I have a lot of money, and others envy me, but why am I not happy?" ”

The farmer put down the firewood and grass, wiped his sweat, and said with a smile: "Happiness is very simple, let go is happiness!" ”

The rich man suddenly realized that he was carrying so much gold and silver wealth, and he was always afraid of being shot by others, and he was also worried about being plotted by others, so he was worried and happy all day long.

Where does it come from?

After the epiphany, the rich man learned to give generously and did a lot of good deeds with compassion, and he became a happy person from then on.

We are not sometimes like the rich man, carrying a heavy burden, not being able to taste happiness, and losing a lot, a lot.

The unhappy prince is looking for happiness. One day, he meets a happy woodcutter.

The prince asked, "Why are you so happy when you have nothing?" ”

The woodcutter said, "Who said I have nothing." I eat as much as you do; I slept in a bed as big as you; My dreams are as beautiful as yours; You can't be free to play around, I can; You can't just lie on the ground and watch the clouds, I can; Why am I unhappy? ”

The unhappy prince is looking for happiness. One day, he meets a happy woodcutter.

The prince asked, "Why are you so happy when you are so poor?" ”

The woodcutter said, "Whoever says I am poor, you are poorer than me." ”

I'm poorer than you, how do you say that? The prince looked skeptical.

You are a prince and will become a king in the future. If you were to exchange another country for the freedom you have now, would you be willing? ”

Of course not. "So is freedom more precious than land? "Yes. "I'm freer than you, do you think I'll be poorer than you? ”

At the beginning of the last century, a teenager dreamed of becoming a violinist like Paganini, he practiced whenever he had free time, practiced intoxicated, went crazy, but made little progress, even his parents felt that this poor child was too lame, and he had no ** talent at all, but he was afraid that telling the truth would hurt the boy's self-esteem.

One day, the boy went to consult an old luthier, and the old luthier said, "Son, play a tune for me." The boy played the third of Paganini's 24 etudes, and it was so flawed that he couldn't bear to listen to it.

At the end of the song, the old luthier asked the young man, "Why do you like to play the violin so much?" The boy said

I want to succeed, I want to be a great violinist like Paganini. The old luthier asked, "Are you happy?"

Teenager: "I'm very happy. The old luthier took the boy into his garden and said to him:

Son, you are very happy, which means that you have succeeded, so why do you have to be a great violinist like Paganini? In my opinion, happiness is success in itself. ”

The young man was deeply touched by the words of the pianist, and he finally understood that happiness is the lowest cost and lowest risk success in the world, but it can give people real benefits. If you don't ask for anything else, you are likely to fall into a swamp of disappointment, melancholy and depression. The frenzied fire in the boy's heart has since calmed down, and he still plays the violin, but is no longer trapped by Paganini's dreams.

Who is this teenager? Albert Einstein, who still loved the violin all his life, played very lamely, but was able to enjoy himself.

Happiness is success, this is a sunny philosophy of life. In real life, it is not difficult for us to see such a type of person, they have ruddy faces, good health, smiles, and are in a happy mood, they live out all the fun of being a human being, but they have not made much achievements in their careers, and they are not very close to fame and fortune and fame. Are such people really losers?

I don't think so. He had them quickly transformed into four columns of clear glass. And set up a beautiful series of glass display cases in it.

I've been closing the door behind me all my life!

British Prime Minister Lloyd. George had a habit of closing the door behind him. One day, George and his friends were walking in the yard, and every time they passed through a door, George always closed the door. "Do you need to close all these doors? My friend wondered.

Oh, of course it's necessary. George smiled and said to his friend, "I've been closing the door behind me all my life."

You know, it's a must-do. When you close the door, leave everything from the past behind, whether it's a good achievement or a frustrating mistake, and then you can start again. ”

The friend listened and fell into deep thought. It was with this spirit that George stepped into success step by step and stepped into the position of British Prime Minister. I've been closing the door behind me all my life! What a classic.

Indeed, if you want to be a happy and successful person, the most important thing is to close the door behind you, not dwell on the frustrations of the past, and keep looking forward.
