In 1932, the great writer Bernard Shaw visited Shanghai. Lin Yutang got on the boat to pick him up and said, "it's windy and snowy here for many days. It's sunny today. You're really lucky to see the sun as soon as you arrive in Shanghai." Bernard Shaw smiled and said, "the sun is lucky to see me in Shanghai." A landlord deliberately ridiculed the great poet Pushkin: "who has more wealth?" "That's hard to say," replied Pushkin. "You have hundreds of serfs, but if the housekeeper doesn't send you money from the countryside, you won't have money to spend. For me, although there are only 33 letters, they can guarantee my expenses at any time." President Lincoln of the United States was short. Someone deliberately asked him, "how long should a person's legs be?" Lincoln replied, "just touch the ground when walking." When German scientist Otto and his brother were studying gliders, life was very hard. It was difficult to maintain a meal a day. The landlady looked at the skinny brothers sympathetically and said, "what's the matter with you? Spending so much money on useless things, you can't even eat enough, like a tramp!" "Oh, madam! Why are you confused?" The Otto brothers smiled and said, "you know, we tighten our trouser belts on purpose. You know, as soon as the geese are fat, they can't fly." We say that life is not as good as you want, nine times out of ten, but when life is unhappy and when life encounters cloudy and rainy weather, do you think there is still a sun in your heart? Your confidence, openness and optimism are the sun in your heart and the sun in your life. "The sun is blessed to see me in Shanghai." Is the reason why Bernard Shaw, Pushkin, Lincoln and Otto brothers can become great figures related to their self-confidence, openness and optimism? (W at any time, there is a shining sun in their hearts. It is the sunshine in their hearts that illuminates the prospect of their life and makes them have the glory of life.
