Few people believe that life has not mistreated them, and likewise, few people believe that they have mistreated life. In your eyes, others always receive more than they should, while you do the opposite, causing you to feel unfair, suppressed, and even angry.


In fact, life cannot mistreat you, only you can mistreat yourself. The art of life is inherently the art of balancing gains and losses:


To fill a new glass of water, you must pour out the existing old water; To obtain a rose, you must give up the rose you have received;


To have more experience, you must have more trauma.


Looking at it from a different perspective, although you have poured out an old glass of water, you have a new one; Although you have lost the rose, you have picked the rose; Although you have suffered trauma, you have gained more experiences. Tagore wrote a poem: "The bird wishes to be a cloud/The cloud wishes to be a bird


Life is never wrong, what's wrong is just your mindset. In fact, birds only need to be good birds, and clouds only need to be good clouds.


No matter who life bestows opportunities and luck upon, there is always a reason for it. Blindly envying and jealous not only fails, but also ruins your peaceful state of mind. Only by holding a calm attitude and conscientiously doing the work you should do, can you possibly achieve results that are not indifferent.


Learning to accept the success and luck of others does not mean acknowledging one's own mediocrity and clumsiness, but rather proves one's maturity and resilience. Only mature and persevering people know how to manipulate the balance between gains and losses, and understand that the art of life is actually the art of balancing gains and losses.
