Everybody, every day, lives on reality. Reality means that when we are hungry, we need eating. When the weather is cold, we need more cloth. That is the reality which we cannot ignore and neglect.
If you are a man of family, you have to manage your finance well, never be in a state of debt. That is that you have to spend less than your income to bring your family to a healthy condition.
Why we should work? It is because we need eating or if we do not work, we shall die of hunger. A child of three years old needs to go to kindergarten to get knowledge in preparation for future use when he grows up. He has to get up early and live a discipline life even he is only at three years old. That is the reality.
Therefore, we should live very prudently in our daily reality. As a human, we cannot live alone. We have to live together with people with whom we are strangers. In reality we have to be with them in work or in social life. How to live well with them depends upon our ability of facing the reality.
If we know how to handle the reality well, we shall be a successful and a happy person or we shall live in a state of dismay because we do not know how to deal with reality which is, indeed, a difficult lesson to learn in our human life.
