On the stage of life, each of us is an actor and plays a variety of roles. Mo Yan, the Nobel laureate in literature, once had his unique insight into human nature, he said: "Human nature is like this, when you are useless to others, human nature is the most selfish." This sentence is like a mirror, reflecting the true self in life, and it also touches the deep resonance in our hearts.
Imagine if you've ever had a moment when you're sick and helpless and need a helping hand, that selfless care and help is especially precious, and when you're someone else who can help or be happy, their smile seems to be the best affirmation of your worth. These are the two sides of human nature, sometimes as sharp as a knife, sometimes as warm as the sun.
Mo Yan's words are actually not unfamiliar. Confucius also once said, "Adversity sees true love." "In the midst of difficulties, the brilliance of humanity is revealed, and those small things that may be overlooked, such as a cup of hot water or a greeting, can make people feel deeply loved. However, when we are proud and become the "useful person" of others, the selfishness of human nature may also quietly appear, which is not malice, but a natural survival instinct.
But we need to understand that we can't ignore that selfless dedication at any time. As the old saying goes, "The grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring." "Those who reached out when you were at a low point, for their kindness and generosity, deserve to be remembered. At the same time, we should also learn to be grateful, because when you have the ability to help others, the shared joy and satisfaction is the true happiness.
In life, we must not only understand and accept the selfishness of human nature, but also cherish and carry forward that selflessness. After all, the complexity and multifaceted nature of human nature is an important part of our rich and colorful world. We don't have to be ourselves or others, we just need to learn balance and growth in every interaction.
Mo Yan's words are like a beacon that illuminates the way for us to understand human nature. Let us not only see the selfishness of human nature in the triviality of life, but also feel the warmth of human nature. In this fast-paced society, let's remember that no matter where we are, the light of humanity will never be extinguished.
