2. Inspirational classical Chinese "Born in sorrow, died in happiness"

Shun was born in mu, Fu Shuo was born in the middle of the building, and the glue was in fish and salt. Guan Yi I was a scholar, Sun Shuai was in the sea, and a hundred miles was in the city. Therefore, when the sky falls, people must first suffer their minds, their bones and muscles, starve their bodies, empty their bodies, and mess around. Therefore, patience has benefited them a lot. People are unchangeable, then they can change, get stuck in their hearts, weigh their considerations, then make them, express them with color, make them with sound, and then make metaphors. A country, if there are no ministers and wise men who can assist the king, will often be in danger of the collapse of its neighboring countries and the misfortunes from abroad. Then I know that I was born in sorrow and died in happiness. Mencius said: "Teaching is also a lot of skills, and those who despise teaching are just teaching."

(Note) Shun was appointed from the field and selected from the masons who built the wall. The glue was used by the people who sold fish and salt. Guan Yiwu was used after being released from the prison officer. Sun Shuaio was selected from the secluded seaside, and Prissy was redeemed from the slave market. Therefore, God will give such people a great responsibility. They must first temper their will, make their bones and muscles tired, make themselves suffer from hunger, make themselves suffer from poverty, and make things difficult for them. These methods will alert his heart, hone his character and increase his talents that he does not have.

People often make mistakes before they can correct them; When I make a mistake, my mind is troubled and my thinking is blocked, so that I can rise up [or do something] in the future; The haggard color is shown on the face, the sigh is shown in the voice, and then I understand. If there are no ministers who uphold the law and sages who can assist the monarch at home, and there are no evenly matched countries and disasters from abroad, countries (like this) will often perish.

We can know that anxiety can make people (or countries) survive and develop, while ease and enjoyment can make people (or countries) languish and die.
