People tend to make mistakes
People tend to get hurt
With a naked heart on a naked stone,
And then the wound remains
The scar remains heavy
And no love. Not a gram.
Man freezes silently
Starts to piss people off
And an icy wolf longing
Knocking at his door in the middle of the night.
He will not fall asleep again until dawn,
Will crumple cigarettes in the fingers.
You'll be waiting for an answer
To invented questions.
He won't say a word now
All he is in the thoughts of the distant somewhere.
Don't judge him harshly
Don't reproach him for it.
Do not be overly cheerful with him,
Do not teach him patience -
All the examples you know
They will be forgotten, unfortunately.
He was deafened by the excruciating pain,
From the furry misfortune of the animal.
He is longing - gray-haired from salt -
Met on a long road.
He froze. Forever and ever? Who knows!
And there seems to be no way out
But one day he will thaw,
As nature told him.
Gradually changing colors
Imperceptibly changing rhythms
From the cold season of January
In the blue serenity of May.
You see - snakes change their skin,
You see - a bird changes feathers.
It's happiness that pain can't
In a person forever nest.
He will wake up early one day
Will break the silence like dough.
Where the wound used to hurt
It will just be a smooth place.
And then through the city to the summer
Running down the main street
Man smiles at the light
And embrace him as an equal. (Sergey Ostrovoy)

And finally, a few more good thoughts, quotes, tips about life and about life:

♦ "The essence of this lifestyle is not to build endless imaginary alternative scenarios of events happening to us and not to produce endless "could be ...", "if it were", "it's a pity not" and "it would be more correct ". Instead, you should try to get the most out of what is here and now" Writer Vladimir Yakovlev

♦ "When you feel bad, find someone who is even worse and help him. You will feel better." How simple it sounds! But why go and help someone if I feel bad?
The wife left, the children forgot, they were kicked out of work - life is crumbling! Everything is bad. But if you find a person who needs your help, if he is worse off than you, your troubles will go aside. Dealing with the pain and problems of another person, you switch and forget about your difficulties and hardships.
Remember: negative emotions accumulate, positive ones do not. Helping others gives you positive emotions. You helped, you see: your help was needed. You could, you took part in someone else's fate. When you feel bad - find someone who is even worse, and help him - you will feel better.

♦ "Live in the present and use it to shape your future to your liking. If you don't change now, the future won't get better. If you're passive and inactive, who will help you? Ultimately, it's all up to you. If circumstances do not indulge you, do not give up, but plan, plan and plan again. Do everything in your power, and luck will come to you - it comes to everyone, to everyone who wants it. This is the law of life. And yet, do not delay for tomorrow what you can do today, God help you"

♦ "The past is already over, this thought must be accepted. There is only the present and the future that we are creating now. Therefore, the past must be understood, accepted and forgiven. Release your past from the present back to the past, there is its place" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller "Happy on my own")

♦ "Just retire and list everything that you have, what you believe, remember everyone you loved and love. And remember also that there is always a huge boundless sky and the sun above your head, however, sometimes it is hidden from us by clouds, but it's temporary, and it's still there, even if you can't see it now. Think about what you have, and then you will understand what you need" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller "Happy on my own")

♦ "Maybe you demand the fulfillment of your desires from life? But these requirements are also absurd, we can only rely on ourselves and do what depends on us, and the result is always a combination of many circumstances, the requirements here are meaningless. And finally , the third area where your demands can lead to unnecessary problems: maybe you are very demanding of yourself? You need to rely on yourself, not demand " Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller "Happy on my own")

♦ "Remember - fear loves those who look into the future instead of leaning on the present. Fear loves those who feed on dreams instead of doing what it can do under the conditions that exist at the moment. So don't wait for the situation to change, then you will no longer be able to do what you can do now.If you constantly behave in this way, then you will never, I emphasize, never really do anything!" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov

♦ "We are all human, and bad things happen to people. When something bad happens to you, it only proves that you are alive, because as long as you live, bad things will happen to you. Stop thinking that you are the chosen one, to whom nothing bad can happen. There are no such people, and even if they existed, who would want to communicate with them? They would be so boring. What would you talk about with them? How wonderful everything is in their lives? And would you like to hit them?"

♦ "Learn to downplay, not exaggerate your problems. For our psyche, which itself does not understand anything in this matter, it is better to hear that the problem is trifling than gigantic. And instead of thinking: "My life does not make sense" - think, "Your problems don't have it. If we can devalue our own lives so easily, why don't we redirect our accusatory sting and devalue the problems that devalue our lives?"

♦ "Not only does life affect you, but you also affect life. So consider that you were just dealt bad cards. It happens. Take the cards, shuffle them and deal yourself. It's your responsibility. Don't wait. Don't whine. "Good things don't just happen. You have to make them happen. Think about how you can start living the way you've always wanted to. If there aren't many bad things happening in your life, then there isn't much going on at all." Larry Winget ("Stop whining, keep your head up!")

♦ "This is a variant of the well-known formula that the doctor Emile Coué developed for his patients: "EVERY DAY, ALWAYS AND IN EVERYTHING, MY BUSINESS GOES BETTER AND BETTER." Repeat this phrase aloud fifty times in the morning and evening, and during the day - as much as you can. The more often you repeat it, the stronger will be its effect on you" Fisher Mark ("Millionaire's Secret")

♦ "Never forget that life is an opportunity. This thesis may seem like a philosophical refinement, but it's true. When one thing doesn't work out for us, another one will definitely work out. As the song sang, "I'm not lucky in death, lucky in love". On all fronts without exception, life never loses. And wisdom consists in always being on the front on which the troops go on the offensive. The ability to switch is a great and necessary skill for us. If somewhere or in something you are chronically unlucky, do something else. You yourself will not notice how life is getting better on the front you left!" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov ("5 saving steps from depression")

♦ Don't forget your family. Your parents are the only people who love you unconditionally, simply because you are. Communicate with them more often - this will not only give you energy for life and work. When dear people leave this world, they will live in your memories. Let these memories be more.

♦ Complaining about life is a waste of time. Build a conversation constructively, talk about something interesting. Your problems are not interesting to others, and getting useful information during a conversation is much more valuable than stingy words of sympathy.

♦ There is enough grief in the world; don't exaggerate it. If you can, BE GOOD, but you can't, or you're going through hard times, then at least try not to be a complete nerd.

♦ Life is an unknown road, immeasurable length. Some traveler walks for a long time, for whom it is short. The length of the road, God only knows, sending us on a worldly path, and a person walking does not know the length of his earthly life.

♦ Remember - everything passes and is constantly changing. What seems important now may turn out to be meaningless after a while. Stop focusing on problems, do something useful.

♦ "You can wait until things calm down. When the kids are older, things will get better at work, when the economy picks up, the weather gets better, your back stops hurting...
The fact is that people who are different from you and me never wait for the time to come. They know this will never happen.
Instead, they take risks and take action, even when they have no time to sleep, they have no money, they are hungry, their house is not cleaned, and it is snowing in the yard. Whenever it happens. Because the time comes every day." Seth Godin

♦ Eventually computers break down, people die, relationships fall apart... The best thing we can do is take a deep breath and reboot.

♦ No matter how bad life may seem, there is always something that can be done and in which you can excel. As long as there is life, there is hope." Stephen Hawking (genius physicist)

"The sleep of mankind is so deep that there is less and less chance of waking up."

Dario Salas Sommer

We rush through life at breakneck speed, in a hurry to have time to do what seems so necessary, and having achieved it, we understand that we were in a hurry in vain, and we are in some strange state of dissatisfaction. We stop, look around, and are faced with the thought: “who needs all this? Why was such a race necessary? Is this life with meaning? As soon as our brain is overcome by a lot of questions, we try to find answers from psychologists, in literature, we remember wise quotes about life with meaning. It is such a moment that turns on our consciousness, which may have been dormant for a long time.

Our civilization has come to a serious danger, as a negligent hostess has accumulated a lot of things, a huge amount of weapons, equipment, spoiled the environment, acquired a lot of unnecessary information, and now she does not know where to apply it all and what to do with it. The cornucopia has become a heavy burden for both our general and individual consciousness. The standard of living has improved, but people have not become happier, but even vice versa.

The thoughts of great people about no longer penetrate the minds of many of us. Why do we become so indifferent, cruel and at the same time so helpless? Why is it so hard for many to find themselves? Why do people find a way out of difficult situations only in death? And why do many of us begin to understand something when we come across quotes about the meaning of life?

Let's turn to the wise for an explanation

Now we are ready to blame anyone for our troubles, in our sleeping consciousness. Blame the government, education, society, everyone but ourselves.

We complain about life, but at the same time we are looking for values ​​where they, in principle, cannot be: in the acquisition of a new car, expensive clothes, jewelry, and all human material goods.

We forget about our essence, about our purpose in our world, and most importantly, we forget about what the sages tried to convey to the souls of people in ancient times. Their phrases with meaning about life today are as relevant as possible, they are not forgotten, but they are not perceived by everyone, and not everyone is imbued with them.

Carlyle once said: "My wealth is in what I do, not in what I have". Shouldn't you be thinking about this statement? Isn't there a deep meaning of our existence in these words? There are many such beautiful statements worthy of our attention, but do we hear them? These are not just quotes of great people, this is a call to awakening, to action, to life with meaning.

Wisdom of Confucius

Confucius did nothing supernatural, but his teachings are the official Chinese religion, and thousands of temples dedicated to him were erected not only in China. For twenty-five centuries, his compatriots have been following the path of Confucius, and his aphorisms about life with meaning pass from generation to generation.

What did he do to deserve such honors? He knew the world, himself, knew how to listen, and more to hear people. His quotes about the meaning of life are heard from the lips of our contemporaries:

• “A happy person is very easy to recognize. He seems to radiate an aura of calm and warmth, moves slowly, but manages to do everything, speaks calmly, but everyone understands him. The secret of happy people is simple - it is the absence of tension.
• "Beware of those who want to impute guilt to you, for they crave power over you."
• “Poverty is ashamed in a country that is well-ruled. In a country that is badly ruled, riches are ashamed.”
• "The person who made a mistake and didn't fix it made another mistake."
• “Those who do not think about distant difficulties are sure to face close troubles.”
• “Archery teaches us how to seek the truth. When the shooter misses, he does not blame others, but looks for the fault in himself.
• "If you want to be successful, avoid the six vices: sleepiness, laziness, fear, anger, idleness and indecision"

He created his own system of state organization. In his understanding, the wisdom of a ruler should be to instill in his subjects respect for traditional rituals that determine everything - the behavior of people in society and the family, the way they think.

He believed that the ruler must, above all, respect the traditions, respectively, and the people will respect them. Only with such an approach to government can violence be avoided. And this man lived more than fifteen centuries ago.

Confucius catchphrases

“Teach only the one who, knowing one corner of the square, imagines the other three”. Such aphorisms about life with meaning Confucius spoke only to those who wanted to hear him.

Not being an important person, he could not convey his teachings to the rulers, but did not give up and began to teach those who wanted to learn. All students, and there were up to three thousand of them, he taught according to the ancient Chinese principle: "Do not share origin."

His clever sayings about the meaning of life: “I don’t get upset if people don’t understand me, I get upset if I don’t understand people”, “Sometimes we see a lot, but we don’t notice the main thing” and thousands more of his clever sayings were entered by students in a book "Conversations and Judgments".

These works became central to Confucianism. He is revered as the first teacher of mankind, his statements about the meaning of life are paraphrased and quoted by philosophers from different countries.

Parables and our life

Our lives are full of stories about cases from the lives of people who drew certain conclusions from what happened. More often people come to conclusions when sharp turns happen in their lives, trouble overtakes or gnaws loneliness.

It is from such stories that parables about the meaning of life are composed. They come to us through the centuries, trying to make us think about our mortal life.

Vessel with stones

We often hear that it is necessary to live easily, enjoying every moment, because no one is given to live twice. One wise man explained the meaning of life to his students by example. He filled the vessel to the brim with large stones and turned to the disciples with a question about how full the vessel was.

The students stated the fact that the vessel was full. The sage added smaller stones. Pebbles are located in empty places among large stones. The sage again asked the disciples the same question. The disciples answered with surprise that the vessel was full. The sage added sand to that vessel, after which he invited his students to compare their lives with the vessel.

This parable about the meaning of life explains that large stones in a vessel determine the most important thing in a person's life - his health, his family and children. Small pebbles are work and material wealth, which can be attributed to less important things. And sand determines the daily bustle of a person. If you start filling the vessel with sand, then for the rest of the fillers, there may not be room left.

Each parable about the meaning of life carries its own semantic load, and we understand it in our own way. Who thinks, and who does not delve into, some compose their no less instructive parables about the meaning of life, but it happens that there is no one to listen to them.

Three "I"

For now, we can afford to turn to parables about the meaning of life and draw at least a drop of wisdom for ourselves. One such parable about the meaning of life opened the eyes of many to life.

The little boy wondered about the soul and asked his grandfather about it. He told him an ancient story. There is a rumor that in every person there are three “Selves”, from which the soul is composed and the whole life of a person depends. The first "I" is given to be seen by everyone around. The second is that only people close to the person can see it. These "Selves" are constantly at war for leadership over a person, which leads him to fears, worries and doubts. And the third "I" can reconcile the first two or find a compromise. It is invisible to anyone, sometimes even to the person himself.

The grandson was surprised by the story of his grandfather, he became interested in what these “I” mean. To which the grandfather replied that the first “I” is the human mind, and if he wins, then a cold calculation takes over the person. The second is the human heart, and if it has the upper hand, then the person is destined to be deceived, touchy and vulnerable. The third "I" is a soul that is able to bring harmony into the relationship of the first two. This parable is about the spiritual meaning of the life of our existence.

meaningless life

All of humanity has one natural quality that determines the desire to find meaning in everything and, in particular, life itself, for many this quality wanders in their subconscious, and their own aspirations do not have a clear formulation. And if their actions are meaningless, then the quality of life is zero.

A person without a goal becomes vulnerable and irritable, he perceives the slightest difficulties with wild fear. The result of such a state is one - it becomes easy to manage a person, his talents, abilities, individuality and potential gradually come to an end.

A person places his fate at the disposal of other people who benefit from his weak character. And a person begins to take someone else's worldview as his own, and automatically he becomes led, irresponsible, blind and deaf to the pain of his loved ones, senselessly trying to earn authority among those who use it.

Whoever wants to accept the meaning of life as an external authority ends up taking the nonsense of his own arbitrariness for the meaning of life.

Create your destiny

You can decide your destiny with the help of powerful motivation, which is often dictated by aphorisms about life with meaning. After all, the meaning of life is different for everyone, either acquired by experience, or coming from outside.

Einstein said: “Learn from yesterday, live today, hope for tomorrow. The main thing is not to stop asking questions…. Never lose your sacred curiosity.". His motivating quotes about the meaning of life lead many on the only right path.

Aphorisms about life with the meaning of Marcus Aurelius, who said: “Do what you must, and what will happen will happen”.

Psychoanalysts argue that greater success can be expected from an activity if the activity is given maximum meaning. And if our work also brings us satisfaction, then complete success is guaranteed.

Questions arise about how education, religion, mentality, worldview of a person influence the meaning of life. I would like the values ​​and knowledge acquired over the centuries to unite all people, regardless of their worldview, belonging to religion and era. After all, quotes about life with meaning belong to people of different times and beliefs, and their significance is the same for all sane people.

Our position in the universe requires an eternal search for answers, ourselves, our place in life, involvement in something. The world has not come up with ready-made answers, but the main thing is to never stop. Aphorisms about the meaning of life call us to movement and actions that are useful not only to ourselves, but also to those around us. “We live for those on whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends” as Einstein said.

Wise thoughts help to live

Psychologists use quotes about life with meaning in communicating with clients, since people are creatures who, having no opinion of their own, having lost any meaning, believe and are imbued with beautiful phrases of famous people.

Quotes about the meaning of life are declared by actors from the stage, they are said in films, and from their lips we hear words that are really significant for all mankind.

Remarkable statements about the meaning of life by Faina Ranevskaya still warm the souls of women who are tormented by loneliness and disappointment:

• “A woman to succeed in life must have two qualities. She must be smart enough to please stupid men, and stupid enough to please smart men.”
• “The union of a stupid man and a stupid woman gives rise to a mother-heroine. The union of a stupid woman and a smart man creates a single mother. The union of a smart woman and a stupid man gives rise to an ordinary family. The union of a smart man and a smart woman gives rise to easy flirting.
• “If a woman walks with her head down, she has a lover! If a woman walks with her head held high, she has a lover! If a woman keeps her head straight - she has a lover! And in general - if a woman has a head, then she has a lover.
• "God made women beautiful so that men could love them, and stupid so that they could love men."

And if you skillfully apply aphorisms about life with meaning in a conversation with people, then hardly anyone will call you a stupid or uneducated person.

The wise Omar Khayyam once said:

“Three things never come back: time, word, opportunity. Three things should not be lost: calmness, hope, honor. Three things in life are most valuable: love, conviction,. Three things in life are unreliable: power, luck, fortune. Three things define a person: hard work, honesty, achievement. Three things destroy a person: wine, pride, anger. Three things are the hardest to say: I love you, I'm sorry, help me.- beautiful phrases, each of which is permeated with eternal wisdom.
