Nature of Destruction
The Earth is 4.5 billion years old (assuming you hold true to science and believe in the evolution of the cosmos), and, if stretched out over a mile, then the 6,000 years of modern human history would encompass less than one-eighth of the final inch. Yet, in those six millennia, the human race has accomplished wonders unlike anything the world has ever seen… but it’s also committed acts so heinous that it makes us wonder if we truly are a benefit to this planet that we call home. How is it then, in all of the millions and billions of years of Earth’s existence, that a species of animal has arisen to cause so much strife and despair in the face of so much wonderment and ingenuity? Why are humans such a dichotomy of good and evil, of love and hate, of the simple and the complex?

What you know and what you do
As the old saying goes, "easy to have three training, one training is easy, two training is easy, three training is not easy", "easy with heaven and earth", is not the same with common sense? We live in common sense, "spring", "autumn", we use them without thinking, is simple; The same thing has different manifestations at different times, changing infinitely, is to become easy; Common sense comes from life, and it is not easy to apply for a long time. Therefore, Zhuangzi said, "The way is defecating." Because of common sense, we are calm in life.

What Will Happen When Prince Charles Becomes King?
Prince Charles, the future king Unlike his mother, who unexpectedly became queen at just 25 years old when her father, King George VI, died suddenly, 73-year-old Prince Charles has spent his entire life in preparation to wear the crown. Here are some other things you didn’t know about Prince Charles: He’s the longest-waiting heir apparent, and he will be the oldest British monarch to ever take the throne—and it’s still uncertain when that will happen.

You say goodbye, I will never see you in meditation
Time beating memories, bit by bit lingering. An accident, a trade. It makes me so excited. That day I was on duty the last one to leave the classroom, lock the door at that moment you suddenly appeared, you said Liu Xiaowei lend me 100 pieces. I didn't say anything, maybe I didn't know you were talking to me. You said it again, Liu Xiaowei, lend me 100 yuan, next week! I smiled and asked why me? You said I'd show you the way to the first day of school! I was very generous to lend you 100 yuan, a week's food expenses, but I do not regret, because you said I was the first person to give you the way, fortunately, you remember my name is Liu Xiaowei. I didn't expect you to pay me back. I didn't expect a deadline.

The good and the ugly
Lu Xun once said, I have never been afraid to think of the Chinese with the worst malice. I think we should change Chinese to human. Lu Xun said this probably because the special social environment at that time made the Chinese people's humanity exposed more obviously. Today, China's development is directly in line with the international community. If you come into contact with many different cultures, you will find that people all over the world share the same virtues. A good man knows no breed, and a bad man no nationality. If good people and bad people must be divided by number, I think it should be half and half at the beginning, referring to Lao Tzu's philosophy of "there is no coexistence". Later, through the baptism of civilized society, many of the people with bad nature were educated and turned into good people, so kindness became the mainstream value. Of course, this is all of your nonsense. Your ideas are here for discussion.
