The path to Tranquility (spring)
65. Showing the beauty of life with sincerity
In relationships, we often become confused by our own egos and overlook the simplest
and most important value: sincerity. Generally, sincerity is used to describe
a person's character traits, but it is more like a verb. Sincerity is not an
inherent state of a person, but a true expression derived from continuous
honesty, so sincerity is a flowing process.
Life is a flow circulation of energy, a pulsation that progresses through time and space. If lacking sincerity, these flows will be hindered, and our vitality cannot be fully realized. Through sincere communication, we establish meaningful relationships, and mutual trust and support. When we demonstrate sincere acceptance, we will also receive feedback from others, making our interactions full of warmth and joy. Thus, sincerity allows us to experience the simplest and most true emotions between individuals, and is also the most crucial element in interpersonal interaction.
When reflecting on ourselves, we also require sincerity. When we face the true self honestly, we can recognize our strengths and weaknesses, thereby giving full play to our strengths and reducing the negative impact of our shortcomings. By sincerely accepting ourselves, we will grow and progress, and such actions will also have a positive impact on the outside world, making it easier for us to gain acceptance and attention from others.
The beauty of sincerity lies in its flow. When sincerity penetrates the body and mind, we can feel that life and love are flowing, and we are giving voluntarily and joyfully. And the affection of reliance is also flowing, we are relying on the love of others and accepting the contributions of others with peace of mind. On the other hand, sincere giving is true kindness, and we will feel its beauty. If there is hidden desire behind giving, it will bring about bad consequences, and the beauty of the world will not be presented to us.
Our emotions are like water flowing in our hearts, and consciousness is the pipeline. If the emotions are abundant, the flow of water will not dry up; with sufficient consciousness to maintain sincerity, we can let our emotions flow through our bodies and minds, thereby acquiring the ability to love others and then flowing to others. The energy of life is communicating, so sincerity is also promoting each other. By often clearing away the garbage generated by egos, learning to express emotions honestly, and seriously listening to others, we can maintain smooth communication, allowing sincerity to flow continuously and thus showing the beauty of life.
