What keeps a person alive? Maybe it's a need, it's what others need for us, it's what we need for others, and in this coming and going relationship, love and warmth arise.
Recently, I often talk to my mother about suicide. She doesn't understand this behavior at all. Maybe the reason why the suicide rate in rural areas is almost zero. In rural areas, everyone is working hard to make money to support their families. This kind of behavior seems to be completely unnecessary. Motivation, like it's written in their genes, it's not like that, they have a source of motivation: what their aging parents need for them, what their young children need for them, what their soon-to-be-married children need for them It is this need that has supported them through a difficult time (a family in our village has not eaten oil for nearly half a year because of poverty, and they are all boiled in water). On the other hand, a postgraduate student who committed suicide wrote: "I am a waste", maybe when he wanted to give up his life, he really felt that no one needed him, and that irreplaceable need, no one The kind of need that is willing to allow oneself to need without expecting anything in return.
I used to think that independence is an unquestionable good quality. Not being dependent on others and not bothering others was once the standard I required of myself. Now let’s look at the needs of others. The needs of others for us constitute the driving force of our life! ! !
