"拒绝你的受伤感,伤害本身就会消失"
— Marcus Aurelius
Simplified Meaning:
When someone hurts you, whether with words or actions, your feelings of pain often come from how you think about the situation. If you can change your thoughts and choose not to feel wounded, the hurt goes away. For example, imagine a friend forgets your birthday. You could feel sad and upset, thinking they don't care about you. However, if you decide to think that your friend might just be busy or forgetful, you avoid those hurt feelings. By not dwelling on the negative thoughts, the sense of injury disappears. Applying this idea can improve your relationships and happiness, as it helps you focus on positive thoughts and reduces emotional pain.
