What is life

What is life

What is life? What I saw in a storm made me think. I remember it was a sultry summer day when I had lunch and was walking in the garden pavilion. In an instant, the wind blew and lightning struck. Back home, I stood at the window, staring at the sudden rain scene. Suddenly, I saw a blade of grass, tormented by wind and rain. In spite of this, the grass still stood with full strength. The howling wind and rain seem to say to the grass: "Grass, you are too ignorant, you are our opponent?" The standoff lasted for more than an hour. Finally, the wind stopped, the rain stopped, the grass after all too thin, at this time, exhausted lying on the land. I sigh for the grass, at the same time, also deeply complain for it. The next day I went to the window again. Suddenly, I was surprised to find that the grass raised its head again under the moisture of the morning dew and the sunshine. Moreover, after the baptism of wind and rain, it appears more spiritual, and the sharp thin leaves are more and more bright green. In an instant, I can not help but be convinced by the vitality and indomitable struggle spirit of the grass - in the face of the raging storm, they are fearless, but the more frustrated the more brave! Aren't they just like grass? Listen to me! Beethoven was deaf in both ears, created the great "Fate Symphony"; While two-thirds of her body was paralyzed, Zhang Haidi taught herself the characters of several countries and wrote many excellent works. Hawking, in the case of completely losing the function of speech, doggedly wrote a history - a Brief History of Time, exploring the origin of the universe; Tai Lihua, who was completely deaf and mute, performed the amazing performances of "The Spirit of the Bird" and "Thousand-hand Guanyin"..... Life flies by. Do a small grass to challenge the storm, so that your short life color will be colorful!There is optimism and confidence in facing failures and setbacks, laughing it off and then regrouping. It's a kind of courage. In the face of misunderstanding and hatred, laughing it off is a kind of calm tolerance, and then staying true to yourself. This is a philosophical point of view. There is peace and relief in facing a difficulty or worry and laughing it off and then trying to solve it. It's a state. In the face of praise and encouragement, it is humble and calm to laugh it off and move on. It's a strength. As long as you have the courage to smile, failures and setbacks are temporary. Misunderstanding and hatred are temporary, as long as you look at them from a temporary perspective. Praise and encouragement are temporary, as long as you don't indulge in your dreams. Trouble and sadness are temporary, as long as you are not controlled by it, the sea is endless, there is no boat to fight for the flow, the flow will not be rejected. It is only when all the creatures are brought together that their lives are unpredictable, that they are not intimidated by difficulties and hardships, and that they exhibit true heroic qualities. The wind and rain came, the spring flowers fell, the clouds rolled, the clouds rolled, you walked leisurely, you hung the sail, you were in the middle of the water, the waves blocked the speedboat, the front is the other side of success. Don't dwell on broken dreams, don't dwell on the happiness of the past, don't care about the loss of life, don't worry about tomorrow's weather. Now that you have chosen the front, proceed through the storm and smile away the unpleasant clouds. Don't let them cover your eyes. Don't deny tomorrow's happiness because of today's pain, don't lose your way because of small successes, don't deny tomorrow's sunshine because of the current wind and rain, because dark clouds can't cover the sun, yes, they can't! Don't cry because we miss the stars, or we will miss the moon. Since it's all short-lived, why don't we just laugh it off and start over? The aura and unpleasant things that hang over our heads in life are like bubbles of different colors. No matter how beautiful or ugly they are, one day they will explode. Instead of staring at unhappy things, it is better to move your hands and feet, stretch your smiling face, and truly pursue your ideals. At this time, the halo will become empty, but our hearts will be filled with unremitting pursuit and smile. Life is like a slowly flowing river, full and confident. A smile, like a billowing wave, brings us the joy of progress. We cannot deny that flowers and thorns go hand in hand, sunshine and wind and rain go hand in hand, not to mention success and failure! Human beings are sometimes unhappy once or twice, and sometimes beautiful nine times out of ten. Then laugh it off and go on your way. Can make yourself sad can also make yourself happy, this is the power of laughing.
