Nice Guys Are Prone to Be Bullied1-人善被人欺？1

Robot Monk Xian'er

老师好，我总是很担心“人善被人欺”。

Greetings,Master. I am always worried that “nice guys areprone to be bullied.”

怎么会这么想呢？

Why doyou think so?

我发善心去帮助别人，却被骗了。做一个好人这么难，我还要坚持善良吗？

I wascheated when I aroused my kindness to help others. It is so hard to be a goodperson, should I insist on being kind?

许多人在行善的过程中遇到了挫折、不理解甚至来自“受助者”的伤害后，就会觉得善良的人容易受伤害，这是因为不懂得为什么要善良，对付出总有期待，一旦期待不能达成，就觉得委屈、困惑、不公……其实，若认为只要是做善事就会事事顺利，那就太天真了。恰恰是要在一切情况下坚持为善，才是菩萨发心，才懂得行善是自己的事。

Afterencountering setbacks, misunderstandings or even injury from the “recipients”in the process of doing good, many feel that kind people are easily hurt. Thisis because they do not know why to be kind, but always expect something inreturn. Once their expectations cannot be fulfilled, they will feel wronged,confused and unfair ... actually, it is naive to think that everything will gowell simply by doing good. It is the persistence of doing good under all circumstances that arousesthe mind of Bodhisattva and manifests the principle of doing good being one’sown business.
