The scales of the law of destiny

The scales of the law of destiny

By LynnPublished 5 years ago 2 min read

There were two men: one rich and frail; the other poor and strong.

  The two men envied each other. The rich man envied the poor man's health, and the poor man envied the rich man's wealth. Even the rich man would give all his wealth for the poor man's health; the poor man would give his health for the rich man's wealth.

  Their wishes were known by a magical doctor.

  The doctor used the method of exchanging human brains to help them realize their wishes: the rich man was then penniless and had good health; the poor man was then rich and became weak and sickly.

  From then on, the two men lived the life they longed for.

  The rich man who became poor, thanks to the possession of health and a strong desire to succeed. Slowly, wealth was re-accumulated and he became rich again. At the same time, he was extraordinarily worried about his health, the slightest physical discomfort will be nonsense, fearing that he had an incurable disease. Under great mental stress, the original healthy body slowly appeared sick again, and lived that rich and sick life before.

  As for the poor man who became a rich man, after sitting on a huge amount of wealth, but at the same time worried about their own frailty and sickness, very worried about this life will not be able to spend the wealth! Think about these family wealth but they sacrificed their health in exchange for, if you do not enjoy it during life, once you pass away, it will be a loss! So he began to spend a lot of money, trying to do everything to make himself comfortable, and before long, the property was squandered by him! As he lived carefree during this time, his good heart also brought good health, and slowly, his body got strong again, and he lived that poor and healthy life again before.

  This is the end of two people: despite all the experiences, eventually returned to their original appearance.

  Perhaps you may think the world is unfair.

  Some people are rich, some are poor; some are healthy, some are sick; some can make their dreams come true, some can only regret their lives.

  Behind these inequities, there must always be some fairness: because what we see is always only a part of the truth. That part of the truth that you do not pay attention to, is precisely to make up for the "balance of justice" another weight!

  The reason you think it's "unfair" is that you've artificially labeled all sorts of people, comparing their unique qualifications to your own non-qualities.

  After seeing all of them, you will find a rule.

  The world is always maintaining its balance in a unique way.

  Perhaps, what you have is not necessarily what you want, but in the eyes of others, it is indeed a rare treasure.

  This is the law of balance of destiny.

  It doesn't exist to please you, but everything it gives you, it won't be responsible for you if you don't make good use of it!
