People must live with spiritual energy and inspirational stories when they are alive.

Abstract: What allows us to stand upright in the world does not rely on external money and power, but our rich and full inner world, our spirit.

Some time ago, my mobile phone battery was not very durable for some reason. It often ran out of power after one or two hours of use, which made me very distressed.

There was a mobile phone repair shop on the second floor of the building where I worked, so I went in and took a look.

The store is at the end of the corridor. It is very small and has a rectangular shape. It can only measure a few square meters by visual inspection. When I entered, the store owner was busy replacing a customer's broken mobile phone screen. He smiled and asked me to sit down and wait for a while. It just so happened that the phone was powered off at this time.

I had nothing to do, so I looked around. Wherever I looked, there happened to be a book on the table. I turned it over and saw that it was a good book on literature and art. This made me happy. I was quite surprised. You have to know that there are shopping malls all around for several miles. Everyone is busy making money, so there is no leisure time to read. I didn't expect that the shop owner was actually a young artistic man. I seemed to have found someone of the same kind.

So I glanced at the shopkeeper out of the corner of my eye. The young man was handsome and full of energy. He looked like a freshly graduated college student.

A few minutes later, he finished what he was doing and quickly disassembled my phone, removed the old battery, reinstalled a new one, and the phone turned on smoothly. It was time to get off work, so I left in a hurry.

After I got home that night, I found that my phone had a new battery, but it still didn’t work. I guess it wasn’t the battery that was the problem. Early the next morning, I went to his store again. Since I went there earlier, he had not yet opened for business.

There was Xiao Xu in the store, which was messy and dimly lit. He was exercising with dumbbells. When he saw me coming, he smiled and asked me to wait for him, and he continued to exercise as if there was no one else around. I sat aside and read, lost in thought, forgetting the time. When I looked up again, I found that he was already concentrating on practicing calligraphy. I approached gently and stood aside to watch. The few numbers on the white paper were flowing like clouds and smoke.

After talking to each other, I discovered that he has a wide range of interests and hobbies. He loved writing articles when he was in school and had submitted manuscripts. After he came out of the society, he fell in love with street photography, calligraphy and painting. No matter how busy he is at work, he still takes time to exercise every morning and evening. His body looks thin, but is actually very muscular.

I guessed he was only twenty-one or twelve years old. He laughed loudly and immediately took out his ID card to show me, oh my god! He was in his thirties, I couldn't believe my eyes.

As soon as many Chinese men reach middle age and have a small career, they either start to go balding or have unruly beards and gain weight, and are classified as uncles early on.

I immediately felt respect for the shop owner in front of me. In him, I saw the spirit of life. Be energetic, have goals, and have a head to head. In this business district filled with greed, I found an alien, and I had to look at him with admiration.

Most of us in real life become the kind of people Jiang Xun said: "Many people become 'old' when they are still very young. 'Old' does not mean the degradation of physiological functions. , and even more psychologically, I have begun to retreat into the monotonous repetition day after day, no longer curious about new things, no longer have dreams, and no longer willing to explore my potential possibilities. ”

Looking around, there are indeed many such people, and Xiao Li is one of them. I knew him more than ten years ago. He was not an ugly boy. At that time, he had just come out of his hometown. He had no skills and could only work hard as a porter.

As lucky as he is, he works in an environment where there are many boys and girls, so he is quite popular as a porter. He keeps wandering among the girls. He is uncertain and often dumps and gets dumped by others. Sometimes he dumps her, and sometimes he tries to do both. Not only that, he often uses violence against his girlfriends.

Such a scumbag naturally has a bad reputation. More than ten years later, he is still single. What I do is still moving work, the salary is not high, and I can't make ends meet. When I have nothing to do, I either play computer games or play mahjong. The people who came to work at the same time as him were all married and had children, with happy families, and some were even prosperous. Only he was still standing still, alone, aging prematurely and dejected.

Xiao Li, who is also in his thirties, seems to be in a state of bleakness, unable to see the future or even any hope. How sad is that?

Look at the mobile phone repair shop owner. He is full of energy and still looks youthful in his thirties. I have to say that the difference between this person and others lies in his spirit.

What is essence? Ben is a concept in ancient philosophy, which refers to the original matter that formed everything in the universe. People call "jing, qi, and spirit" the three treasures of the human body. Whether a person can make a difference or not, spiritual energy often plays a decisive role.

When a person leaves the mother's womb, there is no obvious difference in everyone's ability. But in the long years after tomorrow, the distance has gradually widened, and most of them have become mediocre people. They attribute their failure to bad luck or the lack of inheritance from their ancestors, and blame others. Only a handful of people stand out and become the best in all walks of life. They have made great achievements for the country or made great contributions to their families and maximized their self-worth.

Those who stand out, in the final analysis, live with spirit. They have goals and the belief to fight for them. In this process, they supported their lives with high spirits, optimism and hard work. How could such a state not make life shine?

On the other hand, those who do not pursue goals only indulge in physical enjoyment and have nothing to enrich their spirit. While they are alive, they are nothing but zombies.

Success will not last forever, and failure will not be destined for life. In life, no matter whether you succeed or fail, whether you are sad or happy, you will not be proud of your gains, and you will not be discouraged by your failures. With a positive attitude and your own unique spiritual world, are you still afraid that you won't be able to live a wonderful life?

What allows us to stand upright in this world does not rely on external money and power, but our rich and full inner world, our spirit.
