What is poverty and what is wealth?

In this world, there are many people we envy, such as the rich. They don't have to think about their livelihood, and their wishes are easy to come true. So now many people want to be born in a rich family, but often the reality is that you may live in a poor family financially, and many people will complain about it. Therefore, in view of this problem, we can discuss it together. Is it worth pursuing wealth?

Economic prosperity, of course, is out of the world and everyone yearns for it. Who doesn't want a better life? But often, no amount of money can make up for the inner poverty. If you win the lottery, you will get a lot of money in an instant, just like Mark Twain's million pounds. When you have that 1 10,000 bill, no matter whether you are in rags or dirty, anyone will talk to you because you see that bill. Yes, those people in the clothing store will take you to a gorgeous makeup fitting room for free. You can also stay in a five-star luxury hotel for free. Whether it is the duke or the upper class, the rich or the girls, you will become their focus, their friend and the object of jealousy. But when you lose that 1 10,000 bill, the manager of the five-star hotel will kick you out of the clothing store and even take those clothes back directly. People around you will look at you differently and call you a liar. Yes, often the friendship and even love that the rich get are superficial, and this is human nature. It's just money. The person you love left you because of the money you lost. At this point, can you stand this pain? Can your heart be strong enough to accept all this? The answer is often no, but only those with rich hearts can accept it. For them, that million-dollar bill is just a piece of paper that has been scribbled, so even if you live a rich life, if your heart is still poor, then your heart can only live a poor life.

Therefore, we can actually realize many truths through this short story, some of which are even said to be rotten, but they are often the most real side.

So, what is sadness? What is poverty? We can look at this problem from two aspects, one is economic and the other is spiritual. If your inner world is rich, even if you are really poor economically, you really live a life that many rich people can't get. So many people will be sad because they have money, because they can't get real happiness. This is just a temporary relationship that people get to satisfy their vanity and humanity, and it can't last forever. So we can always be happy because we are poor, because we can find our true happiness through our own hands. Isn't this a happy thing?

So finally, I want to say, in fact, there is no distinction between rich and poor in the world, just a label. Poverty may be a kind of wealth that the rich will never get. Just like Yan Hui, people can't bear to see it, and they won't change their fun when they go back. This is the joy of Confucius and Yan, and it is also the joy of poverty. And the person who can really reach this state, the inner world is absolutely full, but it is often this. Only with such a keen eye, a person who can see the truth clearly can control the whole world and its intellectual wealth at will. As a person who is always good at observing and seeing through the essence of things, he must lack one thing, and that is his own happiness.
