Chapter 70 Don't be busy if you shouldn't be busy

Japanese writer Yasunari Kawabata has gained a lot of fame since he won the Nobel Prize. He is often pushed by the government and the people, including TV commercials, to do this or that. Literati are inevitably naive, not good at socializing, kind-hearted and soft-hearted, and don’t know how to evade; they are too serious in doing things and don’t know how to perfunctory; so they fall into the siege of busy mundane affairs, don’t know how to get out, and finally commit suicide and die in this life. According to reports, before Kawabata died, he was exhausted in raising funds for the PEN.The feeling of being very depressed may be one of the reasons that prompted him to commit suicide due to world-weariness. This is not a wild guess.

Of course, for a writer, winning the Nobel Prize is already a success in life.If he is not involved in the trivial matters that tire him, but spends his years peacefully, with his rich life wisdom, there may be more brilliant creations left in the world. Thoreau, the author of "Scattered Notes by the Lake", spent two years as a hermit in the forest in order to write a book. Growing beans and corn for food by himself, getting rid of all the trivial and mundane tasks that deprive him of his time, and concentrate on experiencing the scenery on the lake in the forest and the resonance of his soul.

Thoreau discovered many truths from it, and then completed this famous book. People often lament that life is busy and the burden is heavy. Of course, life has many burdens that cannot be lifted, but among these burdens, many are unnecessary. Because of being too greedy, too complacent, or not knowing how to refuse, you get yourself into trouble, and take care of things that you shouldn't be busy with. ★Life is delicious★ Many people are often busy with things they shouldn't be busy with besides what they should be busy with.For example, if you are busy socializing for the sake of face and relationship; things.In this way, not only is it easier to succeed, but this kind of life is also more interesting.
