Happy Reality Day! 开始本周3分钟的现实, 1%的快乐 ↓


1个我的领悟

不知道你有没有过这种感觉:

“身边这些人咋都学习比我好,长得还比我好看,家里还比我有钱,还唱歌跳舞特长多,还能说会道善交际……”。智商情商,学历经历,专业副业全方位碾压,看不到希望,喘不上气来。

要是再打开手机,更是朋友圈里岁月静好,自己生活水深火热。

你忍不住想望父成龙——“爸妈,你俩为什么不能争气点?”

怎么办呢?这其实是一个大话题,我会在网站上单独讲。这里咱先只谈一点——家境不好是不是就不能生孩子了。

所有人的出身环境都不完美,所有人都曾受到伤害。你父母的父母可能更穷,更没有见识,对他们伤害更大,提供的成长条件更差。

那再说你,你就有足够的经济能力抚养自己的孩子吗?你就知道怎么养自己的孩子,才能让他身体和心理都健康成长,不留心理阴影吗?

不一定吧。

那我宣布你没资格生孩子,你可以接收吗?世界上99%的人都是这个水平,那他们也都没有生孩子的资格了吗?

从家庭出身的角度讲,伤害是一代一代往下传递的。公平就是互相伤害,互相原谅。

接收出身,学会感恩,开心过余生。

Reality: How to accept your low starting point

tedwild.com  | 2023.4.4

Happy Reality Day! Here is your weekly dose of reality to help you live 1% happier.


1 Insight From Me

Have you have ever felt this way?

“Why do these people around me study better, are prettier, have richer families, have a lot of hobbies and even friends?” They seem to nail everything and have this life things figured out, leaving you feeling hopeless.

Even worse when you open Instagram, in which everyone is enjoying paradise while you are suffering in hot hell.

You can’t help but think – “Mom and Dad, why can’t you be more successful?”

So what to do?

This is actually a big topic, and I will cover it in a dedicated post on my website. For this newsletter, let’s just talk about one thing – whether poor people should have children (This is more of a Chinese problem, of course).

All people grow up in imperfect environment, and all people have been hurt in some way. Your parents’ parents were probably poorer, less informed, did them more harm, and provided worse conditions for their upbringing.

Then let’s talk about you. Are you financially sufficient to raise your own children? Do you know how to raise your child so that he can grow up healthy, both physically and mentally?

Maybe not.

Then I declare that you are not qualified to have children, can you accept it? 99% of the people in the world are basically in the same situation, so are they all not qualified to have children?

From the perspective of family, harm is passed down from generation to generation. Fairness means hurting each other and then forgiving each other.

Accept your background, learn to be grateful, and live happier for the rest of your life.
