Is there a story of humility? Hurry, hurry

The so-called humility, modesty and forbearance are also, this example can prove it, example.

1. There is such a story: American boxing champion Joe Louie is invincible in the boxing world. Once, he was driving with a friend, and on the way, he had to brake hard due to an unusual situation ahead.

Unexpectedly, the car behind had a slight collision with the two cars because they were tailgating too closely. The driver in the back jumped out of the car angrily, thinking that he braked too quickly, and then scolded Joe Louie for his driving skills, and waved his fists, trying to beat the other party to a pulp. Joe Louie said nothing but an apology the whole time, until the driver was bored with the curse and walked away.

Jo Louie's friend asked him in confusion afterwards: "That man is so vexatious, why don't you beat him up?" Joe Louie said seriously

If someone insults Pavarotti, should Pavarotti sing for them? After reading it, my impression is: as a boxing champion, being able to do this can be regarded as a model of humility.

Example 2: Choose the nearest one. Ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, no exception. One day, a young man from the United States came to a small village in Kenya, Africa, to see his father's hometown.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw a group of people with spears, talking fiercely. When I asked, it turned out that I was going to fight with another tribe. The young man asked the reason for this, and one of the clansmen said angrily

The people of that village were always fighting with us for land, stealing our fruits and crops. We've been at loggerheads for a long time. Every time, you have to fight hard.

The young man shook his head and told the patriarch what he thought—let himself negotiate with the people of the neighboring village. Although the people of the tribe wanted to take back their land, they wanted peace even more, so they let the young people go. A few hours later, the young man returned satisfied.

When asked, he said: "It's very simple, I told the patriarch there that we would like to give you some land, but I hope you will stop robbing us of our food." "They also wanted peace, and when they heard that, of course they were willing, and they brought some fruit and food.

The decades-long conflict between the two clans was resolved by the young man, who has since become a hero in the hearts of his clansmen. And this young man is the current ** Obama in the United States. Imagine if Obama and his people had gone to fight with the people of the neighboring village, things would have only gotten worse and worse, and the outcome would have been a lose-lose situation.

However, he used the method of "humility" to skillfully resolve the crisis. "Humility" enabled the two sides to achieve peace and achieve "harmony". Of course, being too humble is not a good thing, I remember that when Lu Xun took the train, he was extremely disgusted with Chinese-style humility, you may ask, what kind of humility will make Mr. Zhou (Lu Xun) disgusted?

It turned out that the Chinese at that time were very pedantic and polite, and when they got on the train, they were busy bowing and giving up their seats, and in the end, no one sat down. If you look at it from the current perspective, it's really incredible.

So Kong Rong divided it according to the order of eldest and youngest, and everyone got their own share, but the one who gave him was the smallest. His father asked him strangely, "Why, when everyone else gets a big pear, you yourself get a small one?"

Kong Rong calmly replied: There are tall and low trees, people have old and small, respect the old and respect the elders, is the truth of life! My father was very happy.

3. Benjamin Franklin is known as the father of the United States. When talking about the recipe for success, he says it all started with a single visit. When he was younger, an old-timer invited him to meet him in a small low hut.

Franklin came, he puffed up his chest, strode the meteor, and as soon as he entered the door, there was a "bang", and his forehead hit the door frame heavily, and suddenly it was swollen, and the pain made him cry and laugh. When the old-timer saw him like this, he smiled and said, "It hurts, right?"
