Enlightenment from a maxim

My favorite motto is "The feet are short and long." It is like a bright light that guides me to progress, always illuminating my way forward. It is like a wind-filled sail on the boat I am learning. I always cheer for me. It is like a companion to my life. Always inspire me to move forward.

The philosopher knows the astronomy, knows the geography, can count the "foot", but he also has something that is not, that is, the "short" of the "foot". Relatively speaking, the boatman is rough, it can be said to be "inch", but he is familiar with water, good nature, unrestrained, can save him when the philosopher encounters the danger of water, is this not the "long" of "inch"? It can be seen that the length of the size is not certain. Things that are short and long are also everywhere. There is such a story in ancient times.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao’s power was the strongest, but his ambition still wanted to “swallow” Jiangnan and Cao Cao had a million troops. The army had strong grain and the Sun Liulian army had only 50,000 horses. The food was not very good. It can be said that It is "inch", but Cao Cao's soldiers are all northerners, and they are not familiar with the environment of Jiangnan. Therefore, Sun Liulianjun used the advantages of time and place to repel Cao Jun, and the Three Kingdoms became the ultimate force.

In real life, we should understand the truth that “the ruler is short, the inch is long”. Although we are not yet grown up, there is such a problem, but I believe that as long as we have perseverance, we can get rid of these shortcomings. Insufficient, remember that although you are a "foot", but also "short", you are "inch", but also "long." This is the warning that this maxim gives me.

We must be modest and uplift, use our strengths to help others, and correct shortcomings from them, and strive to be a good student with all-round development of morality, intelligence, body, beauty and labor.
