Jump off the cliff to find a way to survive

A woodcutter went up the mountain to cut firewood and accidentally fell off the cliff. At the critical moment, he grabbed a tree trunk halfway up the mountain. The person is hanging in the air, but the cliff is bare and high, making it impossible to climb back, and there is a cliff valley below. The woodcutter was not sure what to do. An old monk passed by and gave him some advice, saying: "Let go!"

Since it was possible, and since the only conceivable way to survive had been proven impossible, for a long time You will definitely have to wait for death if you hang yourself. Then the only option is to jump down - you may not live, but you may not die either.

Perhaps we can go down the mountain to ease the gravity a little bit. Maybe there can be another tree halfway, and then the momentum can be reduced again. Maybe not, maybe he really has to die, but there is another possibility, maybe he won’t die.

The biggest inspiration from this story is people’s attitude towards the unknown

There are often dilemmas in life. Instead of being caught in the middle and waiting for death, it is better not to waste the energy of support and put all your energy into it. If you risk it, you will die if you fall, but you can no longer climb up. Even if you have a ten thousandth chance of winning, you will still have a chance of survival after all.

Many times, indecision is more negative than depravity. I have personally seen many people on the verge of indecision, sighing, half-dead, and working their entire lives in a state of constant split personality. These people who are "accustomed to volleying" are probably most familiar with their helpless expressions and unnecessary self-explanations, but life has a deadline, and who can compete with life?

Is it crazy to teach people to jump off a cliff to find a way to survive?

If you treat that decision every time as your last chance of survival, then you can do many things that others cannot do or imagine. Your life has its own set of exclusive values, and you will have another space where your thoughts can roam freely. You have your own spiritual understanding. This may not improve the taste of your meals, but for life, this spiritual understanding is extremely important.

Swinging in the air is a waste of time and still has no results. In the end, no one can hold on for long in mid-air. Since you have to hold on for a long time, you might as well control your own destiny while your mind is still clear and your physical strength can be used one more time.

If you jump, you may not survive.
