"The Fool Moves the Mountain" is an allegorical story painting, and its author is the famous painter Xu Beihong. The painting depicts an old man named Yu Gong, who is determined to dig up the two mountains in front of his house because the peaks prevent them from traveling. Despite his age and limited strength, he firmly believes that as long as he persists and passes it on from generation to generation, he can one day succeed. Through this story, the author of this painting conveys a spirit to us: as long as there is faith and perseverance, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome.
Let's reinterpret this story with simple, easy-to-understand, vivid and interesting words. Imagine that in a distant village, there lives an old man named Yugong. There were two mountains at the door of his house, which were like huge barriers, blocking their way to the outside world. Every time they go out, they have to go around the mountain peaks and walk a long way. Yugong is determined to change all that.
One day, Yu Gong gathered all the family and said to them, "We will dig these two mountains and make the road smooth." When the family members heard this, they all thought that this idea was too crazy, after all, they were just ordinary peasants, where would they have the strength to move the mountains, but Yugong said firmly: "As long as we work together and pass it on from generation to generation, one day, our efforts will be exchanged for a better life." ”
So, Yugong led his family and began this seemingly impossible project. They get up early every day and work hard to dig the mountain little by little. Although the progress was slow, they never gave up. Gradually, their efforts touched the heavens and the earth, and the heavens sent two Hercules to help them remove the two mountains. Since then, the roads in the village have become unimpeded and the people have lived happily ever after.
This story tells us that as long as we have faith and perseverance, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome. As Yu Gong said: "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." "We need to learn to face life's challenges and be brave enough to pursue our dreams.
In real life, we can also find many similar examples. For example, with the joint efforts of countless scientific researchers, the mainland's aerospace industry has grown from scratch and from small to large, and has finally achieved achievements that have attracted worldwide attention. Another example is Alibaba, founded by Jack Ma, which was only a small company with little name at first, but with his firm belief and perseverance, he built Alibaba into a world-renowned e-commerce empire.
Scientific research has shown that human potential is limitless, and as long as we believe in ourselves and are brave enough to challenge, we can create miracles. According to statistics, about 90% of a person's potential is untapped in his life. This is because we are often held hostage by our own fears, doubts, and laziness. And the story of Yugong moving mountains tells us to be brave enough to tap our potential and make the impossible possible.
Here comes the interesting question:
If you were a fool, would you choose to move mountains or move?
This question seems simple, but in fact it contains a philosophy of life. Moving mountains means moving forward bravely in the face of difficulties, while moving means avoiding difficulties and seeking a new way out. In real life, we are often faced with such a choice, will you choose to challenge or escape?
Returning to the story of Yugong moving mountains, we found that in fact, moving mountains does not necessarily have to really move the peaks, but to have the courage to face difficulties and dare to challenge. As the famous psychologist Maslow said, "The greatest tragedy of human beings is that their potential is not developed." "We have to believe in ourselves, be brave enough to pursue our dreams, and make life full of possibilities.
In short, the painting "The Fool Moves the Mountain", through a simple fable, conveys the importance of faith, perseverance and challenge. Let us learn to face the difficulties in life, be brave to pursue our dreams, tap our potential, and make the impossible possible. As Yu Gong said: "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." "Let's work together to create a better future.
