After watching this movie, I remembered some sayings, such as "good people have good rewards". This is the routine in the movie. In reality, good people may not necessarily be rewarded. But what I also want to know is, how many people are good people for the sake of good rewards? If there is no good reward, is it less motivated to be a good person? But shouldn't being a good person be everyone's most basic pursuit in life?
Another sentence is "a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way". The desire for money is actually the same as eating and sleeping. It is a natural desire of human beings and cannot be given up. But to put it bluntly, eat and sleep, if you have a certain material ability to protect, you can get satisfaction, and it is harmless to others. As for making money, in today's society, I am skeptical whether it can be obtained in a "right way". How many people rely on real skills to make a lot of money? How many bosses make big money without seeing the detrimental things that harm others and benefit themselves? I am skeptical. To put it bluntly, in today's China, I don't think many people can make big money without having good relations with leaders, without relying on family connections, and without relying on calculations that go against their conscience. So since there is no way to get "right", then whether to pursue "wealth", here is the point of difference between me and everyone. I have always insisted that people must live by the principles and bottom line of being a human being, and this thing cannot be destroyed no matter what. I think the idea of most people is that survival of the fittest, what kind of society you live in, what kind of living method you have to adopt, otherwise you have to accept failure. It seems reasonable, but if adapting to such a living method will destroy your principles and bottom line? So do you still need to adapt and pursue the so-called success? I don't think today's society has lost the three views, but it is undeniable that people's moral bottom line is lowering. Now if you ask whether you want to be a noble person or a rich person, I think the vast majority will definitely choose the latter. The answer to this question would have been different 30 years ago. You can say that times are developing, and people are naturally pursuing different things. Yes, isn't this the old man's evaluation of Bogart's character that I mentioned at the beginning? When we were all poor, there was no material temptation and competition, and everyone could be noble. At that time, the standard for finding a partner seemed to be an honest and kind person. Times are changing, and what people are looking for must be different. I agree with this, but I think the criteria for finding a partner should be expanded from simple honesty and kindness to fun and style, instead of being twisted to have a house and a car driver. So handsome. Changes in values should be on the same moral scale, and this should be the direction of social development.
Human nature is greedy, and all kinds of desires will run through life. It starts when you need milk at birth. This is something we cannot eradicate. So for those who value nobility more than money, all they can do is not to get themselves involved in that circle of desire. Just like Bogart in the movie, he didn't set foot on the gold rush road, even though he may still be poor, at least it is much better than the ending of losing his humanity and killing his companions and then being killed by robbers; it's like throwing you and Lin Chiling naked. In a quilt, few men can resist the temptation not to make mistakes, but you can choose not to open a room; just like when you become a leader, even if you don’t get complicit, but everyone else is dirty, you are the only one who cleans you. You think everyone will. spare you? But you can choose not to lead. I don't want to kill you with a single blow. There are always some men who can sit still and keep their arms around, and there are always some leaders who can continue to be noble. It's just that in the circle you come in contact with, you will inevitably become a person of the same level, even if you keep yourself clean every day. Dealing with these people is bound to be boring. Before reaching the last step, there are actually many retreats. There are not so many helpless things in life. Involuntarily is just an excuse to compromise with desires. People who truly live a free and noble life can still choose the life they want in any era, but they may not be recognized by others. In the face of freedom and nobility, what is recognized success?
Of course, this article only represents my personal opinion. I don’t intend to judge everyone’s right or wrong, but just want to say that while you are busy, please ask yourself, what do you value in your life? What is the most important thing? Think clearly, whichever way you go is good.
