C
Yu are enrlled in a full-time schl called “life”. Each day in this schl yu will have the pprtunity t learn lessns. Yu may like the lessns r hate them, but yu have designed them as part f yur curriculum.
Why are yu here? What is yur purpse? Humans have sught t discver the meaning f life fr a very lng time. What we and ur ancestrs have verlked, hwever, is that there is n ne answer. The meaning f life is different fr every individual.
Each persn has his r her wn purpse and distinct path, unique and separate frm anyne else’s. As yu travel yur life path, yu will be presented with numerus lessns that yu will need t learn in rder t fulfill that purpse. The lessns yu are presented with are specific t yu; learning these lessns is the key t discvering and fulfilling the meaning and cnnectin f yur wn life.
As yu travel thrugh yur lifetime, yu may encunter challenging lessns that thers dn’t have t face, while ther spend years struggling with challenges that yu dn’t need t deal with. Yu may never knw why yu are blessed with a wnderful marriage, while yur friends suffer thrugh bitter arguments and painful divrces, just as yu cannt be sure why yu struggle financially while yur peers enjy abundance. The nly thing yu can cunt n fr certain is that yu will be presented with all the lessns that yu specifically need t learn; whether yu chse t learn them r nt is entirely up t yu.
The challenge here, therefre, is t align (公开支持，使一致) yurself with yur wn unique path by learning individual lessns. This is ne f the mst difficult challenges yu will be faced with in yur lifetime, as smetimes yur path will be cmpletely different frm thers’. But, remember, dn’t cmpare yur path t the peple arund yu and fcus n the difference between their lessns and yurs. Yu need t remember that yu will nly be faced with lessns that yu are capable f learning and are specific t yur wn grwth.
Our sense f fairness is the expectatin f equality — the assumptin that all things are equal and justice will always prevail (盛行). Life is nt, in fact, fair, and yu may indeed have a mre difficult life path than thers arund yu, deserved r nt. Everyne’s circumstances are unique, and everyne needs t handle his r her wn circumstances differently. If yu want t mve tward calm, yu will be required t mve ut f the cmplaining phase f “it’s nt fair”. Fcusing n the unfairness f circumstances keeps yu cmparing yurself with thers rather than appreciating yur wn special uniqueness. Yu miss ut n learning yur individual lessns by distracting yurself with feelings f bitterness and anger.

B. Yu shuld learn t appreciate yur specific uniqueness.
C. One has t fix his mind n unfairness f circumstances.
