Inspirational story: the sound of the gongs

Inspirational heart: When a person is in despair, if you can show positive and optimistic side, bear the moment you are in front of you, and don't worry about the future, you don't have to worry about the day when the gong will ring, and you don't have to listen to the sound of the gong. In this way, despair will no longer be despair, but may be another turning point. When there is only one sour lemon in your hand, you have to try to make it into a delicious lemon juice. Their lives are enjoyable.

There were two young people who struggled in the city for many years and finally made a lot of money. Later, when they were older, they decided to go back to the country to enjoy their old age. On the way they went home, they met a white old man who held a copper plaque in his hand and waited for them there.

They asked the old gentleman: "What are you doing here?"

The old gentleman said: "I am a person who specially helps people to knock on the last gong. You two have only three days of life. By the twilight of the third day, I will take the gongs to the door of your house and knock. When you hear the sound of copper, life is over." After that, the old man disappeared.

These two people were stunned after listening to it. They had worked hard in the city for so many years, earned so much money, and came back to enjoy the happiness, but only three days left to live.

After the two returned home, the first rich man would never eat or drink, and frowned every day to count his property. I thought: "What should I do? There are only three days left to live!" He was so dejected, his face was as gray as he was, and he did not do anything. He only remembered that the old man was going to knock on the bronze. He waited until the third day. The whole person has been like a deflated ball.

Finally the old man came. Holding the gongs standing outside his door, "锵" knocked. As soon as he heard the gongs, he fell down and died. why? Because he has been waiting for this sound, and when he is there, he will die!

Another rich man thought: "It's a pity, earning so much money, only three days to live. I have been away from home since I was a child. I have never done anything for my hometown. I should take this money out and give it to my hometown. All the suffering and the people who need help." So, he gave all the money to the poor, paved the way and built the bridge. Just handling it made him very busy, and he forgot the sound of the bronze gongs three days later.

It was only after the third day that all the property was astigmatized. The villagers thanked him very much, so he invited the drums, the opera, and the puppet show to his door to celebrate. The scene was very lively, the dragon and the lion dance, and the firecrackers. And put fireworks.

The old man appeared as an appointment and knocked the gongs outside his house. The old man "锵,锵,锵" knocked a few times, but everyone did not hear it. It was useless for the old man to see how to knock it again. He had to leave.

The rich man had a lot of genius to think about the old man’s coming to knock, and wondered: "How old people have lost their appointments?"
