Honesty is the precious spiritual strength of human beings. Mr Qi Baishi is a master of modern Chinese painting in China. 1937 He was 70 years old when the Japanese invaders occupied Beiping. He angrily resigned as a professor in Beiping Art College, closed the door and refused to join the enemy and puppet troops. In the cold winter, the whole family would rather freeze to death than accept charity from the enemy and puppet troops and refuse to buy paintings for them. In order to get rid of their entanglement, he posted notices on the door one after another: "The old man Baishi had a heart attack and stopped seeing guests." "Don't introduce him to others, it will be difficult to repay him." "Painting Not for Sale and Bureaucrats" later simply wrote "Baishi is dead".
Baishi's integrity has always been praised by later generations. It can be seen that honesty is the most beautiful display of a person's quality.
Integrity, strength and unshakable. 194110 In October, Ye Ting, the commander of the New Fourth Army, was arrested by the Kuomintang reactionaries in the "Southern Anhui Incident", and the enemy tried to subdue him with both hard and soft methods. However, Ye Ting's persistence in struggle shows the noble quality of a generation of revolutionaries. In prison, he also wrote the just Prison Song: "The door where people go in and out is locked, the hole where dogs climb out is open, and a voice is shouting-climb out and set you free! I long for freedom, but I deeply know that a person's body can't climb out of the dog hole. I hope that one day, the underground fire will burn my living coffin! I should be remembered in fire and blood! "
It can be seen that Ye's integrity is so firm that his actions have to be admired by future generations.
My friend, in this new era, only with honesty can we walk and sit still. With honesty, we can face difficulties, charge ahead, face the temptation of inner peace, face fame and fortune, face up to interpersonal reality, distinguish right from wrong, and let the sun shine on our hearts.
