Old people often say, "The poor don't believe in life, and the rich don't believe in ghosts. Why do you say that?
Although a person's life is very long, compared with history, it is much dimmer. Therefore, many words left by our ancestors are worthy of in-depth study. What we have learned from them may help you avoid many detours. Today, I will introduce to you three common sayings of our ancestors, which fully illustrate life and see through human nature.
"The poor don't believe in life and the rich don't believe in ghosts" sounds a bit mysterious, but the reason is simple. Don't trust fortune tellers when people are poor, because most fortune tellers have no factual basis, cheating you and wasting your time. Rich people should not believe in ghosts and gods, nor should they worry all day long, which will affect their normal life. Didn't you see that the ancient emperor, as the richest man in the country, was worried about his life every day? He clearly claimed to be the son of heaven, but all day long he wanted to make an alchemist and believe in ghosts and gods, but in the end he came to a tragic end.
As the saying goes, if you cross the bridge, you won't be poor all your life unless you keep giving in to your fate. Although it is unrealistic to say that "man can conquer nature", it is a belief, and you have to admit that it will bring you strength. In addition, even in distress, don't be opportunistic and do illegal things, which will only make yourself in trouble and more difficult.
