1. The hero of the first story is Shun among the Five Emperors. After Shun's mother died, his father married another wife. Shun's father, stepmother and stepmother's younger brother all dislike Shun, and constantly find fault with him, always trying to kill him. But every time I am smooth, I hide before I show it, and then I am more kind, modest and polite to my family. In the face of all kinds of difficulties created by his family, Shun can be so generous, not caring about trivial grievances, and even more unreasonable, turning an enemy into a friend. It was because of his friendliness and talent that Yao decided to make him his successor.
2. The second story is Liuchi Lane. During the reign of Emperor Kangxi in Qing Dynasty, a scholar and minister of rites had a dispute with his neighbor Wu Jia because of the homestead problem. Zhang Jia wrote a letter. Zhang Ying wrote a poem indifferently after reading it: "A letter from a thousand miles is only a wall, why not let him be three feet?" The Great Wall of Wan Li is still there today, but there is no Qin Shihuang. "After receiving the letter, the Zhang family didn't understand at first, thinking that Brinton would use what means to settle the Wu family. Who knows that they wrote such a letter, but they had to do it. Who knows that the Wu family was moved and gave up three feet. So a six-foot wide alley was formed between the two houses, which became a much-told story. What happened to him? Only in this way can neighbors live in harmony.
The third story is called Xiangxiang River. Many of us are familiar with this story, which is about Zhao in the Warring States Period. Lin Xiangru, a civilian, was sent to the State of Qin and returned to the State of Zhao intact. At the Mianchi meeting, he was witty and brave, and rescued the king of Zhao from the humiliation of the king of Qin. So the prince of Zhao promoted Lin Xiangru to the upper right, ranking above the military commander Lian Po. Veteran Lian Po was always unconvinced by his military achievements, and threatened to embarrass Lin Xiangru if he saw it. Lin Xiangru refused to go to court, so as not to see Lian Po. Outsiders think that Lin Xiangru is afraid of Lian Po, but it is not. Lin Xiangru thought that discord would give Qin an opportunity for Zhao's national interests. When Lian Po learned the truth, he offered a humble apology. From then on, the two became friends of life and death, and * * * defended Zhao. Lin Xiangru's friendliness is not cowardice, but unity of colleagues for national interests.
The fourth story: When I was a sales manager, I had a conflict with an employee. I don't like her arrogance and decided to talk to her. In order to avoid quarreling in public, I'm going to call her home. "Should I fire her?" Looking through the employee card, I am thoughtful. Suddenly, an incident that happened nine years ago came to my mind.
At that time, I had a full-time job to help my husband Mike finish his studies. Finally, the day came when he graduated. Our parents will come from other States to attend his graduation ceremony, and I have made many plans for that day. For example, go to eat ice cream after graduation, and then go to the city for a chic time.
I ran into the bookstore where I was happy to work. "I'm going to take a holiday on Saturday after Thanksgiving," I announced to my boss. "Mike graduated!"
"I'm sorry, Mary," said the boss. "The weekend after the holiday is our busiest time. I need you here. "
I don't believe the boss can be so unreasonable. "But Mike and I have been waiting for this day for five years!" I argued, my voice trembling with excitement.
"Of course, I won't give you a job at the graduation ceremony." He said.
"I can't come at all, Ross," my face tensed with anger. "I'm not coming!" I stormed out.
I ignored him for the next few days. When he asked me a question, I just answered coldly in a few words.
Our relationship is getting more and more tense. Although Ross still looks enthusiastic and often smiles, I know he is not feeling well and I am determined to take a day off.
We had a cold war for several weeks. One day, Ross asked me if I would like to talk to him alone. So, we went to the reading area and sat down. I stared at my feet and told myself that no matter what happened, I had to be strong. Apparently, the boss wants to fire me. He can't let me despise him like this and be indifferent. After all, he is the boss, and the boss is always right.
When I gave him a cold look with disdain, I was surprised to see the injured expression in his eyes. "I don't want to cause any anger and unhappiness between you and me," he said quietly. "You can have a holiday that day."
I don't know what to say. My anger, my narrowness and my childish behavior are all so insignificant in front of his humility. "Thanks, Ross." I managed to squeeze out a sentence, which I won't forget.
Now, this past has jumped back to my mind. How can I forget Ross's kindness to me? Why haven't I passed on this kindness these days?
I took out my work permit from my work permit, dialed her number and apologized to her. After hanging up the phone, our relationship is as good as ever.
God has a way to hide what we have learned in life in our hearts and show them when necessary. And she also made me understand that sometimes it is more important to be kind to others than to insist on being right.
The fifth story was that when playing the piano, the lights in the theater were often turned off and it was dark, so that the audience could concentrate on playing. Liszt sat in front of the piano, and when the light went out, he quietly asked Chopin to come and play instead of himself. The audience was conquered by the wonderful piano performance. After the performance, the lights came on. People are not only happy with the appearance of the new piano player, but also deeply admire Liszt for recommending new people. It is Liszt's magnanimous attitude that makes Chopin stand out. Imagine if Liszt was jealous of talent and suppressed Chopin because he was afraid that Chopin's talent would surpass him, then we wouldn't hear the famous fantasia today.
PLA soldiers guarded the battlefield for days and nights. They can't drink water because of conditions. Although every soldier was thirsty, faced with a red apple picked up by the correspondent from the road, the soldiers were humble and gave it to those who needed it most, from the monitor to the operator to the injured Xiaolan. Apple turned around and returned to the monitor. At the monitor's command, every soldier only took a sip, and more than half of the apples returned to the monitor.
