Descartes said: I think, therefore I am.
A piece of paper is flying in the air, although it dances beautifully, but it has no style; A butterfly flying among the flowers can enjoy the beautiful spring scenery, because it knows that it will stick to itself, so it will not lose itself. The dialogue between a performing artist and a playwright reminds me: Are we a piece of paper or a butterfly in life? ..... Su Shi said: "Bamboo straw sandals are lighter than horses, who is afraid? A misty rain is a lifetime. " It shows that he remains optimistic and confident when he is frustrated in life, so he can still stick to his ideal and move on despite his bad fate.
Yes, as a person, we all have our own ideas and pursuits, but we must be able to stick to ourselves and never follow blindly, so as to make persistent progress.
To be a person who insists on himself and does not give up his position and rational thinking easily can avoid blind obedience and stick to it. It is precisely because they can't stick to themselves and choose blind obedience that Yan people left a joke of learning to walk in Handan in history; It is because you can't stick to yourself that you choose to follow blindly and learn from others, which eventually becomes a joke that makes you laugh for thousands of years; Because of blind obedience, people are easy to believe in "health master" Zhang Wuben; Because of blind obedience, China people began to grab salt after the Japanese nuclear leak ... Since ancient times, the historical sky has recorded many stories of blind obedience. In the face of these fabricated stories, we should be able to bear the noise of the distractions and not change ourselves at will. Although Confucius traveled around the world, he hit a wall everywhere, but he used persistence to express his persistence in his ideals and created a splendid Confucian culture in China. The turbulent Qian Zhongshu insisted on "silence" and "turned a deaf ear to things outside the window". Some even accused him of "philosophical atrophy." However, we can't deny that Qian Zhongshu's silence is by no means giving up, but sticking to his beliefs in a humble way and showing the wisdom and respect of the master.
Similarly, because of self-persistence, Aristotle left the motto "I love my teacher, and I love truth more"; It is because of self-persistence that Copernicus realized the "Heliocentrism" of fundamental change; It was because of their persistence that Ding Zhaozhong discovered the J particle family ... Their persistence and persistence made them lonely, so they reached the peak that ordinary people could not reach.
Therefore, we should stick to our ideals and not change ourselves because of impetuousness. The rapid economic development in China has created many opportunities to "get ahead". Have you ever noticed that "the world is bustling with fame;" The world is bustling, all for profit "? As a result, many people who are keen on fame and fortune long for "overnight fame" and "overnight wealth". Many people can't stand poverty and mediocrity more and more, and choose to follow the trend blindly and learn from others, but they not only lost today, but also lost their own tomorrow and ruined their future.
Be a self-reliant person and make yourself a thinking reed. Whether you are in a vast field or on the banks of the Tang Tang River, you can still control your steps where the wind is swaying, even in the face of strong winds. If we don't go with the flow and follow the crowd, we can "be humiliated and watch the flowers bloom before the court; I have no intention of staying, and I am covered in clouds. "
This is the realm we are pursuing.
