I am ?reading a book called 'Xinliu'(Pingyin).It's categorized as a psycologic book.It's so informative and readable that I can finish ?reading in a very short time compared to that spent on the other books.Some of the writer's opinions stroke a chord with me .He said the person who can control his consciousness anytime and anywhere is able to be happy.The joyful status is the goal we always fight for.I once said as long as I can do whatever I like without being distracted ,I am happy.I have kind of been working on improving my capacity in controlling myself .Also ,the book said, happy is a shallow word to describe the joyful and wonderful status a person experiences when he is doing something wholeheartedly.The feeling is actually so great that you may depend on it instead of asking anything else.Scientists ,climbers,historicians ,dancers,philosophors can all get it trough the activites they are having.They usually don't care what they will get in the eand .They enjoy the process itself.It mentioned that if people aren't occupied ,they probably focus on some sad things,which is definitely true,at least to me.
Apart from the views I share with the writer,he gets me to know a lot of new conceptions.One of them is that we can get the flowing feeling through both physical and mental ways.If we make good use of our own body ,our eyes for beautiful sights ,our ears for amazing sound, our mouths for delicious food ,we can get the feeling.We can also get it through reading and thinking .Another thing is that it said love can provide strong flowing feeling especially at the very first when all is so new and so good.However,if you don't pay more attention or communicate more to find new ways which can give you more complex feeling ,you will become bored .Then it's so called a death of passion.
One can only get the feeling by working hard ,struggling and being strong-minded.One thing you need to do is to improve your complexity then you won't miss out on the feeling.
I ,without question will follow his advice and deliver it to others so that others and I can be better and enjoy more as life is so short.
