@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Welcome! 欢迎!@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Welcome to my virtual home. This is a little private space for me to put my thoughts and share my feelings since 2005. Due to my wide range of interests, there are perhaps too many tags. I would explain some of the less obvious tags:

"About Life" is really about how I have been pondering about life and what enlightenments and paradigm shifts I had experienced.

"About Psi" contains most topics about happiness, optimism vs pessimism,
confidence, comparison, pride and prejudice and other psychological aspects.

"About Logical Thinking" is about my own way of interpretating and explaining
certain issues, aiming to debunk (or create?) superficialness of them.

"About Ideology" is about my thoughts on big concepts like freedom, justice,
fairness in society and religion.

"About Society" is more about my observations about the society, often through interactions with different peoples.

"My Country" reveals my frustration, critics and hope
on my homeland - Malaysia.

"My Little Pieces" has more short posts though mostly are written in Mandarin.

While I do have some posts on book reviews and business, I am planning to
separate them into author-specific and content-specific blogs. Stay tuned.

Enjoy your reading!

察其所不安

与任何人相处,首先要了解他几时会有情绪,有怎样的情绪以及如何处理情绪,才能避免冲突,待得风平浪静时再理智对话。


撇开情绪,大部分的人还是蛮容易相处的。只是如果因为在一般情况下相处融洽,就满心欢喜而忽视上述的了解,便会在不适当的时候给予不适当的反应,导致彼此的关系起起落落,有时如糖黏豆,有时如水油。

我记得刚读到孔子的“视其所以,观其所由,察其所安”时,很为最后那句察其所安所折服,因为平日言行是大家都可以观察得到的,背后动机是大家都可以去揣测的,但一个人安心时喜欢做什么却没什么人去留意,尽管那些行为才贴近他的本性。

而现在,我想不仅仅察其所安重要,察其所不安更重要。至于要明白别人的情绪,则先要坦诚面对自己的情绪,才能推己及人。知己,才能知彼。我极少动怒,但一旦怒起来非常倔强,因为能够惹怒我的都不是小事,而是那些和我的主要原则矛盾对立的行为。从中学到现在,我火山爆发了六次,而且六次都是不同的对象,六种我完全不能认可的行为原则。只是动怒以后,我再也不会为同样的事情爆发,因为不是别人有所改善,就是我会降低对别人的期望(或彻底失望)。我的情绪容易被别人不明所以的不恰当行为所牵引。对人有期望,才会有失望,这是我很大的弱点。

所以,一切还是得从自身的修行做起。待得修为到家,就算别人的行为千奇百怪,别人的情绪千变万化,我也只会尝试去明白、接受和帮助,就算帮不上忙,至少也不会引起情绪连锁反应,拿别人的情绪来惩罚自己,于事无补节外生枝,何乐而为之呢?

最重要的是,察人所不安,才能进退有度收放自如,游刃于众人之间。
