"Adversity makes talents, and prosperity buries talents." This sentence illustrates this profound truth.
Sun Kang of Jin Dynasty loved reading when he was a child, and his family was poor, so he couldn't afford lamp oil, so he braved the cold of winter night and borrowed snow to reflect his reading. In Che Yin of Jin Dynasty, fireflies were packed in white silk bags in summer, and they read by the light of fireflies. Unfortunate people always stand the test than happy people, so poor people cherish time more than rich people.
Difficulties and setbacks are a fortune to people with perseverance. Zhouyi was written by Zhou in prison. The Spring and Autumn Annals was written by Confucius after his career was frustrated. Qu Yuan wrote Li Sao when he was exiled. Zuo Qiuming wrote Mandarin after he became blind. Sun Bin's knee was cut off, making the art of war. Sima Qian wrote Historical Records after he went to prison. Thus, suffering is the most precious wealth. Beethoven said: Nothing can temper a person's virtue like bad luck. Failure is a blow to the weak, but it is an incentive to the strong.
Schubert, a world famous composer, was born in a poor teacher's family in Austria. Because my father's income is meager, he often can't eat. One night, he passed by a hotel and subconsciously went in, hoping to meet an acquaintance to borrow money to buy some food, but he waited for a long time. At this time, he found an old newspaper on the ground, picked it up and saw some new songs, so he had a whim and created a lullaby. Out of sympathy and appreciation, the boss served roast beef with potatoes. Who would have thought that "Lullaby", which was born in this predicament, became a well-known world song after Schubert's death.
How can plum blossom fragrance be without biting cold? How many talents can become talents in adversity? These famous examples illustrate this point. If the children of the poor can take care of themselves as early as possible and grow and learn in adversity, they can become useful people.
Adversity is a grindstone, which can sharpen the will to forge ahead and the indomitable spirit. Adversity is a school where people can learn a wealth of life knowledge.
