接上篇《乾》卦。
爻辞初九潜龙勿用。具体传文就不一一赘述,我们直奔主题。
初九所言大意为君子应韬光养晦,谋求发展之机。
人生在世不如意十之八九,我们每个人都并非真正独立的个体在芸芸众生中穿行,琐碎之事充斥生活之中,而我们也并非二代,各种不自由,而且当你付出努力和行动时你发现总是事倍功半,你想要的东西想做成的事总是事与愿违,你埋怨时运不济,世道不公,可你想过没有你真正付出了吗?你埋怨你比别人资源少,可你知道这是别人父辈甚至祖上就打拼下来的资源。
前段时间看了一个外国视频,大概情形是一群学生赛跑,裁判员说:家里吃喝不愁的向前五步走,事毕又说:家里有房有车不用为学费和生活费打工的再五步走,而后又说:毕业后家庭已经安排好优质工作机会的继续五步走,紧接着镜头转向那些一步没走的学生,他们很尴尬,甚至手足无措,之后教练又说了很多发人深省的话,我记得最清楚的是这只是起点并非终点。
社会很浮躁,我们有时也很浮躁,当我们还在积累阶段时就不要想要收获,隐忍不求虚名,不为世俗所转移,安心安静的做自己喜欢的事,想做的事,时机不到,形意皆不妄动。
看到初九后更加坚定我的思想,正常上下班的同时积极学习法律,今年司考必过。同时应景地再次送上那篇广为人知的小诗,继续共勉。
