Story #1

When the rooster crows, it's morning. When the rooster doesn't crow, it's still morning. So whether it's morning or not is not entirely decided by the rooster's crowing, but rather by whether people are awake or not.

When you wake up, an old day has passed. If you don't wake up, you will sleep for a lifetime.

Lesson:

 

Every day you wake up is a new life.

Being able to live a healthy life is the most important and happiest thing in life.

Take advantage of the gentle morning sunlight to step outside and enjoy the scenery. The trees, flowers, birds and animals in this world are so beautiful, don't let this wonderful time pass by in vain.

Story #2

Someone bought a box of pears. Because he was afraid that the hot weather might spoil the pears, he picked out the worst ones to eat first every day. In the end, he ended up eating a whole box of rotten pears.

Lesson:

Life is like eating pears. If you focus on the bad things every day, you will live your whole life in anger and anxiety.

Let go of all your worries and throw them away, aim for something positive every day, and your life will be wonderful!

Cherish every moment of life, live positively and happily!

Always pay attention and adjust, don't let yourself fall into bad emotions!

Story #3

One day, the parrot and the crow met. The parrot lived a peaceful and comfortable life in a cage, but he admired the crow's freedom in the wild.

The parrot admired the crow's freedom, and the crow admired the parrot's leisurely life, so the two birds negotiated that they would switch places.

The crow received the comfortable life he desired, but he did not receive the love of his master, and eventually died of resentment;

The parrot was given freedom, but because he had lived in luxury for so long, he was no longer able to survive independently and eventually died of starvation.

Lesson:

Don't blindly admire other people's happiness, because that happiness may turn into unhappiness for you.

In life, don't compare gains and losses, live your own life well, enjoy every thing that life gives us, that is the truth!

Story #4

When a drop of ink falls into a glass of clear water, the water will immediately change color and become undrinkable;

When a drop of ink dissolves into the sea, the sea remains as deep blue as before;

Why is that?

Because the tolerance of the two objects is different.

 

Young rice stalks straighten their stems to catch the wind, the more ripe the rice stalks become, the lower their heads bow;

Why is that? Because there is a difference in weight between the two sides.

Lesson:

Tolerance towards others is magnanimity; humility is self-discipline; combining these two things together will form a person's dignity.

The larger the container, the more open the tolerance, the higher the EQ, the more we will understand that we have to bow.

Hope we can all become people with high EQ and generosity as vast as the sea.

Story #5

Perfume is 95% water, and only 5% difference, that lies in each person's secret formula.

The same goes for humans, we have 95% of the same basic characteristics, but the remaining 5% difference is the important factor that distinguishes us from others, including our upbringing, personality and personal desires, which in turn determines our own happiness and pain.

Lesson:

It takes five or ten years for essential oils to blend into perfume, and it is the same for us humans, who must go through a process of maturity and training to achieve our own unique flavor.

So, studying is very important! Persistence is very important!

Story number 6

There was a father and son leading a donkey out on the road, both of them walking, someone saw this and said they were stupid for having a donkey but not sitting on it.

Later, when the son was sitting on the donkey, a passerby cursed the unfilial son;

In return, the father sat on the donkey, and some people said that the father was too cruel;

Then the father and son rode the donkey together, and someone passing by said that they did not know how to love animals;

Finally, the father and son had to carry the donkey home.

Lesson:

We can't live to please everyone.

If we do not have our own opinions and determination, and are always swayed by the words and actions of others, then we will only be able to do stupid things like "Father and son carry a donkey home" as the story suggests.

 

Story number 7

A fox found a nest of delicious chicken eggs, but because he was too fat, he couldn't get into the nest, so he decided to starve for 3 days and finally got in successfully.

But after eating all those eggs, it could not get out anymore, so it had to starve for another three days before it could get out. Finally, it lamented that by doing this, besides making itself happy, it was only finding work for itself without any benefits.

Lesson:

Isn't our life the same? We work hard all our lives, but in the end, when we close our eyes and pass away, who can take the fame and fortune we have accumulated with us?

You can spend your youth to make money, but you can't use money to buy back your youth. You can risk your life to make money, but you can't use money to buy back your health. You can use your time to make money, but you can't use money to buy back time.

Even if you spend your whole life making money all over the world, you still can't use that money to change your whole life ahead.

So it is important to learn to rest and enjoy.

Story number 8

During the parent-teacher meeting, the homeroom teacher wrote the following four calculations on the blackboard:

2 + 2 = 4

4 + 4 = 8

8 + 8 = 16

9 + 9 = 20

Seeing that, the parents competed to say:

"The teacher made a mistake in the calculation.

The teacher turned around and slowly said:

Yes, parents can clearly see that this calculation is incorrect.

But there were three correct calculations ahead, why didn't anyone pay attention to praise that, but only saw one calculation that I did wrong!

Then the teacher said with deep sincerity:

Dear parents, the essence of education is not to find out what children do wrong, but to promptly praise what they do right.

Lesson:

The same goes for people. If you treat someone well a hundred or a thousand times, that person will consider it a habit. And if you offend that person just once, all the good things you did before can be completely negated and they will only focus on that mistake of yours!

This is the principle of human nature: 100 - 1 = 0.

The same goes for friends and family.

This topic is brought up today so that our readers' friendships and family relationships can last forever.

Take a step back in friendship to enhance the relationship, give way in family to enhance family harmony.

The ancients said: "Receive a drop of gratitude, repay a stream of gratitude"

This is the truth of being human, from children to adults, we all need to learn how to remember gratitude.

Story number 9

Everyone has their own story.

A 24 year old man looked out of the train window and shouted…

' Dad, look the trees are moving back! '

Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looking at the 24 year old boy's childish behavior with pity, suddenly he exclaimed again…

' Dad, look the clouds are running after us! '

The couple could not contain themselves and told the old man…

' Why don't you take your son to see a good doctor? ' The old man smiled and said…' I did and we just came back from the hospital, my son was blind since birth, today he was cured.'

Lesson:

Every person on this planet has a story. Don't judge people before you really get to know them. The truth may surprise you.
