Benevolent virtue, good fortune and easy heart

厚德积福 逸心补劳

Benevolent virtue, good fortune and easy heart

The sky is thin and I am blessed, and I am thick and virtuous to meet it; Heaven toils me in form, and I ease my heart to fill it;

The sky chokes me to meet, and I hold my way to connect it. God help me!

If God does not increase my fortune, I will do more good deeds and cultivate my character to deal with this fate; If God uses labor to weary my body, I will maintain my tired body with a comfortable mood; If God tortured me with poverty, I would open up my way to survive to get through the difficulties. If I can do this, what can God do to me?

Mencius once said that if heaven wants to land a major mission on someone, it must first afflict his mind, strain his bones and muscles, starve his stomach, fatigue his body, and make his actions unsatisfactory, so as to temper his mind, fortify his perseverance, and improve his ability.

What about a person's ordinary life? In fact, no matter whether a person is great, ordinary, noble, or humble, no matter what way he walks in the world, he must bear all the things he encounters in his life journey: the good times when the wind is calm and the waves are stopped, the smooth road when the wind is triumphant, the sweetness of love, the joy of success; On the other hand, he has to bear all kinds of hardships, such as wind and rain, waves and reefs, disasters and so on, whether it is happiness or sorrow, happiness or pain, and there is no escape.

 厚德积福逸心补劳

  天薄我以福，吾厚吾德以迓之；天劳我以形，吾逸吾心以补之；

  天扼我以遇，吾亨吾道以通之。天且奈我何哉！

  假如上天不增多我的福分，我就多做些善事培养品德来对待这种命运；假如上天用劳苦来困乏我的身体，我就用安逸的心情来保养我疲惫的身体；假如上天用穷困来折磨我，我就开辟我的求生之路来打通困境。假如我能做到这些，上天他又能对我怎样呢？

   孟子曾说：天要把重大使命降落到某人身上，必定先要苦恼他的心志，劳累他的筋骨，饥饿他的肠胃，困乏他的身子，并且使他的一次次行动都不能如意，以此来锤炼他的心志，坚韧他的毅力，提高他的能耐。

   对于一个人的平常人生呢？其实，一个人无论是伟大，还是平凡，是高贵，还是低贱，无论以什么方式行世，他都必须承担起他在人生旅途中遭遇的一切：风静浪止的顺境、春风得意的坦途、爱情的甜蜜、成功的喜悦……；另一方面：风风雨雨、浪急礁险、灾难患害等等，无论是喜，还是忧，是幸福，还是痛苦，他都得承受，无可逃避。
