The waters of the Yangtze River are mighty and rushing down, which is spectacular. But beyond the bottom line of the river bed, it will become a flood, which will be out of control.
People living on the earth are dancing gracefully on the edge of their own times. However, if you exceed your own ideological bottom line, you will be in rolling in the deep, beyond redemption.
Looking back at the dust of history, it is not difficult to find that any ruler who wants to ride on the people and dominate the country,
Dancing with a gun and making sticks at the bottom line that the people can bear can only be self-destructive. Think about Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, who once "swallowed his ministers for two weeks, ruled Liuhe according to the supreme authority and whipped the world". How majestic and natural it was. However, after the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, they forgot the fundamentals of ruling the people, and turned to building new buildings, burning books and burying Confucianism, leaving the people in dire straits. Beyond the bottom line, how can the people not resist? The result can only be "one person can't kill seven temples", and the heyday of the Qin Dynasty only lasted for II and came to an end. Coincidentally, because Emperor Yang Di only knew pleasure, regardless of people's livelihood, the people couldn't stand it, and the flames of the uprising burned all over the place, and a huge Sui Dynasty ceased to exist in just a few years.
Therefore, each of us should have such a bottom line in our hearts. We regard it as the criterion of life and the magic weapon to settle down. Faced with the darkness of the officialdom and the filth of the secular world, he resolutely took off his official clothes and chose to retire to the countryside. Listening to chickens barking and dogs barking, and watching mountains and fog, he felt that his heart had never been so clear and flawless. Tao Yuanming's bottom line is not to defile the official standard. He found his own clean sky in his heart.
Throughout the ages, many people have been influenced by greed. During the Republic of China, Cao Kun once became a warlord for profit. Feng used to run around for the benefit and run for president; Zhang used to be an insatiable bandit, dominating the Northeast. However, in the face of threats and inducements from Japanese invaders, Cao Kun, Feng and Zhang did not give in. Wang Jingwei chose to cooperate with the Japanese to establish a puppet regime to serve the Japanese army. Cao Kun, Feng and Zhang kept the bottom line and avoided rolling in the deep, and history did not blame them for their perfection; Wang Ching-wei, on the other hand, gave up the bottom line of China people for his personal interests, betrayed his country, and inevitably left him with a thousand years of infamy, which was spurned by history. The kneeling posture of Mr. and Mrs. Wang is a trial of history!
The wheel of history keeps moving forward, and the dawn of the new century shines on us. Going into the future, we can't forget history, let alone the bottom line of the soul. Let's take history as a mirror, keep our inner bottom line, stay away from that abyss and perform our wonderful life.
Be a man with a bottom line.
The towering Mount Tai, soaring into the sky, will never waver regardless of wind and rain, which is the bottom line of the mountain; The towering Populus euphratica, flourishing, let the wild sand raging, mighty and unyielding, that is the bottom line of Populus euphratica.
Be a man with a bottom line.
Looking up at the starry sky last night, it was full of magic and mystery; Back to the wheel of history, it is full of glory and achievements.
There, there was a conversation between Li Bai and you: "Oh, how can I solemnly bow to those high officials who never want to be seen with sincere faces?"
In the face of the monarch, he is arrogant; Facing a world, he has thousands of ancient poems; Facing all kinds of life, he drinks alone. What a violet layman, the Tang poetry and wine are unparalleled, the first violet literature garden; What a degenerate fairy who sleeps in a restaurant in Chang 'an and dares to be proud of the son of heaven when he is drunk; A good Li Bai, with Jian 'an's character, is built into the history books through the ages, and tells the bottom line of life through the ages!
There, Su Wu said to you: "Wild geese call the moon through the clouds, and goats are not grazing."
Facing the north wind, he keeps company with Leng Yue; In the face of prosperity, he made promises with actions; Faced with the threat of surrender, he responded with sincerity. Between life and death, he chose the latter; Between wealth and poverty, he chose the latter; Between submission and persistence, he also chose the latter! History can't forget Su Wu in Beihai, the iron-blooded man exiled in the barren hills and plains, who made the most perfect interpretation with unyielding and arrogant; With persistence and persistence, he wrote an epic; He painted an immortal picture with sincerity and loyalty, which will be passed down through the ages. Su Wu replied with his heart, "Wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and power can't be bent", which revealed the bottom line of being a man with heart.
This is Zhuge Liang chatting with you: "The third call, focusing on national affairs, gave the sincerity to two generations."
In the face of the kings of the two dynasties, he was loyal; Facing people all over the world, he set an example; In the face of fame and fortune, he doesn't care at all. "Working in the imperial court, the original regardless of what the first master; World-famous, why distinguish Xiangyang Luoyang as "Zhu Gekongming! He sounded the bell and drum of history with sincerity, played a beautiful movement with loyalty, answered himself with sincerity and revealed the bottom line of life.
