Lin Xi wrote 4,000 lyrics, Happy, just writing this book. Since its publication, more than 400,000 copies have been sold, and the classic has been revived. This reprint includes the transcripts of three new sharing sessions on happiness given by Lin Xi. In a troubled world, urbanites seek a moment of happiness through foreign objects, but they feel even more lonely after the laughter. The source of happiness turns out to be very close at hand, but I just didn’t realize it. In a world where she writes lyrics and articles all day long, and is immersed in so many sad love songs, Lin Xi learns and cultivates happiness with readers. He mentioned in the preface: This book does not list a thousand ways to be happy or ten thousand places to have a happy getaway. If you haven't put down the burden in your heart, where can you go? It does not provide chicken soup for the soul. The soup can only replenish the body. However, the author humbly overestimates his ability and tries to pretend to be a divine farmer and taste the herbal medicine, so he chooses to cruelly try to unpack this burden. Only by understanding the source of pain can we guard the heart. Only when the heart is free from worries , only then can troubles and pain be devalued to the point of turning a blind eye, and only then can we find our happy biological mother: peace and ease. To put it more plainly, for example, regarding love, being happy because of peace and contentment is to "never miss any teasing and not wait for anyone", "I don't want what is not given to me, and I don't love what is not mine." The title of the book "So You Are Not Unhappy" also implies a subtitle: You didn't realize it. As he said in the preface: "One thought of heaven, one thought of hell. Happiness is determined by the heart. Just like the existence of air, you can only notice it when you breathe hard. But if you breathe hard until you gasp, you will be afraid of losing it. If you are attached to happiness, you will be unhappy." This book is divided into eight chapters, the last chapter talks about death, because the author firmly believes that "it is difficult to know life without knowing death, just as it is impossible to know happiness without knowing suffering." He was taboo about the final outcome and never thought about exploring the way out. The previous happiness was just a happy illusion. It is impossible to pursue happiness from the outside world, because setbacks in reality are inevitable. Only by cultivating your inner soul can you be invincible and fearless of external encounters. Don't look for it, don't chase it. 【About the Author】 Lin Xi Graduated from the Faculty of Arts of the University of Hong Kong, majoring in Translation.
