In a narrow sense, life refers to the indispensable livelihood activities that people must engage in in order to survive and reproduce during their existence. Its basic content is food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Broadly speaking, it refers to people's various activities, including daily activities, work, leisure, social and other professional life, personal life, family life and social life. Life can be roughly divided into three categories, namely, social life, professional life and family life (in addition to spiritual life and material life).
What is happiness?
Trust and freedom give and desire income, which is defined as happiness.
The state in which psychological desires are satisfied.
A lasting satisfaction with life and a feeling that life is very interesting and naturally hopes to last for a long time.
I'm afraid the word happiness was used together only after the Song Dynasty, and its meaning is far from modern people's description of a happy, comfortable and satisfactory life or situation. The earliest usage of "happiness" should be to use the word "luck" as a verb of "hope" and "desire". Therefore, the Book of the New Tang Dynasty 18 1 said that Tang Xianzong welcomed the Buddha's bone and Yu Fengxiang, and was accepted into the palace. Han Yu wrote "Welcome the Buddha's bone to express his admonition". The emperor was so angry that he almost made Han Yu angry, but even if he prayed for such a pious emperor, he could not enjoy life well. Historians say: "Happiness is a disaster, nothing is left!" " That is to say, it's really against people's will to seek happiness and get disaster!
If the word "happiness" is used together, it can be simplified to using the word "luck" as a verb, which should give people who feel unhappy or unhappy all day a more practical feeling. The reason is simple: "happiness" is not a state of completion, but a desired process-and it is often not realized. (Zhang, "Know a few words")
Happiness is the desire for repetition. (Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Life)
How to understand life
Life is like a dream, long and short. When this dream wakes up, a person's life will become an eternal memory. In retrospect, I only worked hard in this dream.
The Philosophical Story of Life: Socrates' Life Teaching
Several students asked the philosopher Socrates, "What is life?"
Socrates took them to an apple forest, let everyone walk from one end of the forest to the other, and everyone chose the biggest and best apple he thought. Don't look back, don't make a second choice.
In the process of walking through the apple forest, the students carefully selected the apples they thought were the best. When everyone came to the other end of the apple orchard, Socrates was already waiting for them there. He smiled and asked the students, "Have you picked the most satisfactory fruit?" Everybody, you look at me, I look at you, and there is no answer.
Socrates saw this scene and asked, "What's the matter? Are you dissatisfied with your choice? " "Teacher, let's choose again," a student pleaded. "When I first entered the orchard, I found a big and good apple, but I still want to find a bigger and better one. When I reached the end of the orchard, I found that the one I saw for the first time was the biggest and best. "
The other went on to say, "I am the opposite of him." Soon after I entered the orchard, I picked the biggest and best fruit I thought, but later I found something better. So, a little regret. ""teacher, let's choose again! " Other students also asked in chorus.
Socrates smiled and said seriously, "Children, this is life-life is an unrepeatable choice."
Facing the irreversible life, we can only do three things: make a solemn choice and try not to leave regrets; If you regret it, face it rationally and then strive for change; If you can't change it, accept it bravely, don't regret it and move on.

Four partners in life:

D. The first partner is actually our soul. When we pursue material things, wealth and enjoyment, we often leave it behind.
Planned life
Calculate life in another way
The so-called life length, in fact, does not need to be calculated at all, it is equal to the length of your life. Life cannot be prolonged, but there is "profit maximization" in life.
In order to achieve "profit maximization" in life, we must form a good collocation among all the components of life. We can neither waste time because we have nothing to do all day, nor waste time because we have no time to enjoy life. Therefore, to calculate life, it is not necessary to calculate its length by subtraction, but to calculate its "profit" by inner feelings.
