Chernyshevski said: There is no complete happiness without complete independence. In fact, there are many such examples in history. Take Liu Chan in The Romance of Three Kingdoms as an example. He has no great talent. He relies on Zhuge Liang for everything, regardless of state affairs, and has fun all day. He became a helpless dou. As a result, Zhuge Liang died, and he didn't know what to do or how to manage state affairs, which led to the demise of Shu and was laughed at by the whole world.
Napoleon also said: many people are not enough to rely on, we have to survive on our own. He did the same. Napoleon was just an ordinary man with a short stature. For various reasons, it is more difficult for him to survive than others. But he did not flinch, did not rely on his parents or others, but joined the army and became the emperor of the first French Empire from an ordinary soldier by his own ability. He once said, "A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier." In this way, he realized his great ideal with his ambition and independent spirit, which was admired by later generations.
This is true for individuals, and so is the country. Our China is a good example. China * * * Production Party was founded when the country was in decline and the people were in danger. China's producers did not rely on foreign help. With firm faith and the spirit of self-improvement, we fought against domestic and foreign enemies to the end and finally established People's Republic of China (PRC). After the founding of the People's Republic of China, we did not rely entirely on the experience of the Soviet Union, but took the socialist road with China characteristics. China, which is poor and weak, is finally strong and stands in the east of the world. The success of the Olympic Games and the World Expo proves this point even more.
However, teenagers in today's society rely more and more on their parents, teachers and collectives, and they are less and less independent and capable. How can such a teenager shoulder the heavy responsibility of building the motherland? The Norwegian writer Ibsen said: The strongest person in the world is an independent person. Lao Tzu also said: the winner is strong and the loser is strong. So if you want to do something, you have to overcome dependence.
Overcoming dependence does not mean breaking away from the collective, but relying on yourself. A drop of water will dry up when it melts into the sea. Only when we are in the collective can we reflect our value more. What we should do is to integrate into the collective but not rely on it.
As the saying goes, self-improvement in life begins with youth. Self-reliance and self-improvement are the essential qualities of every successful person. As a new generation of teenagers, we should resolutely overcome dependence, actively exercise ourselves, learn to be independent and learn to be strong. Let's plug in sails for the advancing ships and move forward towards our ideals!
