天命
五十而知天命, 君子不与命争.
什么是命? “命” 就是所有一切你不能控制, 不能通过努力去改变的东西. 命是在你出生之时已经确定的东西. 命决定了你一生不可逾越的界限. 命就是一个人的化身, 他的才气,力气, 勇气, 运气, ……
命与生而来, 追随你, 陪伴你, 支持你, 限制你. 不管你喜欢, 还是讨厌, 你必须和它绑在一起, 终其一生.
人的一生总是在 “认命” 和 “与命抗争” “不信命” 两个端点上跳跃. “认命” 就得屈服于现实, 过一个平庸而安静的生活. “不认命” 就要奋斗, 碰得头破血流之后, 不得不向命屈服, 回到认命这边来. 养精蓄锐, 一旦气力恢复, 便又不甘于认命, 又跳起来不信命, 与命争了.
