Write an 800-word argumentative essay on the topic "Don't take yourself too seriously"

A:

It is human nature that people always take themselves too seriously, and there is nothing wrong with it. But I still have to say, don't take yourself too seriously. Otherwise, the price you pay is directly proportional to the importance you think you are.

The love of beauty is understandable. Maybe everyone has this experience. When we put on new clothes to go to school, we were greatly satisfied to hear others say "Oh, your new clothes are really nice" in surprise. This is not only because our vanity has been greatly satisfied, but also because we have a certain weight in the hearts of others. However, when no one cares about us all day, we will try to make others notice our differences. If others don't notice that we cut a wound on our body, then we try to get the answer that "you are no different from usual today", which is undoubtedly a merciless sprinkling of salt on our wound. The bitterness is self-evident.

Ying Ruocheng, a famous performing artist, was born and raised in a big family. Every time we eat, dozens of people sit in a big restaurant. Once he had a whim and decided to play a joke on everyone. Before eating, he hid in an unattended cupboard in the dining room, trying to wait until no one could find him. To Ying Ruocheng's great embarrassment, no one noticed his absence. After dinner, everyone left, and then he came out to eat some soup leftovers.

We always take ourselves too seriously, hoping to be remembered in people's hearts like the Nine Songs Galaxy and branded in people's hearts like the towering Mount Tai. As everyone knows, in the vast sea of people, we are just the ordinary one. The long road, as long as you have rich experience, you can leave footprints, and only if you experience it with your heart can you leave a firm figure in the world. But remember, we are just ordinary members in the vast sea of people, so don't take ourselves too seriously.

There is a tombstone in the basement of Westminster Abbey in England, which reads: When I was young, I dreamed of changing the world; But when I grow up, I find that I can't change the world; Therefore, I will shorten my vision and change my country. But in my old age, I found that I had no ability to change my country at all; Therefore, my last wish is only to change my family, but it is also impossible. When I was lying in bed and dying, I suddenly realized: if I just started to change myself, maybe I could change my family; With the help and encouragement of my family, maybe I can do something for my country. And then who knows? Maybe I can change the world!

Indeed, if this person doesn't take himself so seriously, maybe he changed himself, his family, his country and finally the world through step-by-step experience, then he will leave a heavy footprint in history.

If you think you are a pearl, you will always be afraid of being buried. Treat yourself like dirt, let everyone step on you and be magnanimous from now on;

Think of yourself as a big tree, always afraid of being cut down. Think of yourself as a seed, let the spring rain moisten you into a seedling, and then keep jointing;

If you think you are a dewdrop, you will always be afraid of being evaporated. Throw yourself into the sea and let the tide roll you into waves, and then continue to surge.

Think of yourself as a grass, a drop of water and a white cloud. Although it is a tree, it can resist wind and rain. Although it is a drop, it can moisten the seedlings; Although it is a flower, it can dress up the blue sky, and this kind of life is enough.
