In the journey of life, adversity is a wake-up call and inspires people to forge ahead. But comfortable and superior environment kills people's will, makes people indulge in comfort and enjoy comfort, and often achieves nothing. Some people even indulge in debauchery and self-destruction when they are at ease. This is similar to how frogs get up and lie in warm water to die when they are in trouble.
"Born in sorrow" is an eternal famous saying, and the story of Gou Jian, the king of Yue in the Spring and Autumn Period is the best registration. At that time, Gou Jian succumbed to peace, served Wu humbly and worked hard. After "ten years of reunion and ten years of tempering", he finally turned weak into strong, rose up and destroyed Wu, becoming a generation hegemon. How can Gou Jian revive the country? This is the result of the humiliation of national subjugation, which makes him angry and urges him to rise. This shows that during the difficult time in no way back, people can often show extraordinary perseverance, exert their unexpected potential, fight for deus ex and open up a chance to live.
However, letting go of an open hand is easy, and people often fail to grasp it well, but "die of ease." An example of this is Zhuang Wang. In the spring of 20644, Chu Zhuangwang invaded Beijing, thinking that the world was settled, and it did. Those new bureaucrats with peasant backgrounds lost all the spirit of dominating the world in the uprising and just wanted to enjoy comfort in Beijing. The generals want to build a building. When the Qing soldiers entered the pass, the Ming army made a comeback and the rebels were defeated. This reminds me of an old saying of Ouyang Xiu, "Worry and fatigue can rejuvenate the country, and leisure can die." When a dangerous situation arises, people can keep their eyes open and fight hard, so they can save the situation. However, in the enjoyment of ease, the will fades and the spirit disappears, resulting in complete failure.
We must carry forward the fine traditions and virtues of the Chinese nation, so that we can last forever and maintain our youthful vitality forever! To do this, we must have the spirit of "worry" as the foundation!
