But the next morning, you said you had just "given birth" to some unexpected things so you had to postpone the coffee season. Nowadays, everyone is like that, the better they are, the more jobs they can do, there's no time, it's just knowing when to accept and when to refuse.
You are the boss's right-hand man, active and resourceful, so you get things done. Now your desk doesn't have yellow pieces of paper anymore, it's all saved on your computer. Every now and then, the machine beeps to announce work. Company work and family work are all things that need to be done. It has taken up most of your time, and there are many things you want for yourself, with many unfinished plans. And many times you want to throw it all away but can't.
But then you managed to arrange an appointment with him. Still at the same restaurant, the same seat next to the window because it suits feng shui, but this time you drink hot black without sugar instead of the usual cold drink. Complaining to him about the lack of time for the things he wanted to do, he shook his head: You're happy without knowing it.
What needs to be done is something that cannot be undone, it is related to the essential needs in life, while wanting to do is associated with greed. The more you want to have, the easier it is to be unhappy, especially when that want is not satisfied. Like my wife, when she sees discounted products, she buys a bunch to take home, many of which are unnecessary, so she throws them away shortly after. Then I said that the last time I went to the temple, the teacher gave me noodles and tofu, it was so delicious, I made two bowls, I was already hungry, and when I should have stopped, I wanted another bowl, so my stomach kept feeling heavy and uncomfortable.
You were silent for a long time as if to absorb his story, then said: I also just read a book and saw a quote from a great master: "Even if treasures rain down like rain, we can only fill our bowl" - listen. but poignant. My uncle also advised me that everyone has a need for happiness. But happiness must also have an end, chasing it too much is not good and becomes greedy.
