Change until the world gives way to you

Chapter 2 Changing the world begins with changing yourself (1)
Close your eyes, cover your ears, stay in a corner, still can't escape reality, our thoughts are still going on; as the appearance of the will of the world, what we see is the fleeting changes of the whole world.Everything comes and goes quickly. Only by devoting our body and mind to this changing society, breathing and dancing with it every moment, every minute and every second, can we allow ourselves to have The beauty of breaking out of a cocoon and becoming a butterfly, being the freest dandelion, continuing to change yourself and the American dream like Obama...

Nothing is constant in the world
"One cannot step into the same river twice", this is a famous saying of the ancient Greek philosopher Heraclitus.It inspires people: everything in this world is like a river that keeps flowing, old water keeps flowing away, while new water keeps coming in.There are new things emerging all the time, and everything is changing.Nothing stays the same in this world.

Coincidentally, there is also such a story in ancient Greece:
A man forgot to bring money when he went out, so he asked his neighbor to borrow it.After a long time, the man never paid back the money, and the neighbors asked him to collect the debt.This person had no money to repay, so he said: "Everything has changed, everything has flowed. The me now is no longer the one who borrowed the money." He refused to pay back the debt.The neighbor lost his temper and slapped him in a rage.The debt-ridden person was going to the government to file a complaint. The neighbor also said: "Everything has changed, everything has been lost. The me now is not the one who beat you." The debt-ridden person was speechless.

The bad guy in the story excuses that things are constantly changing and developing, and denies the relative static of things, so he regards everything as ever-changing and elusive, which obviously exaggerates the changes of things.Naturally, we cannot, like him, excuse that things are changing dramatically all the time, so we will be powerless to change things.However, this story vividly tells us: everything changes.

Precisely because everything in the world is changing in motion, the dinosaurs that once ruled the world are far away from the earth, and the Cambrian era has only become a kind of history, and humans who evolved from apes have become the masters of the earth.Everything comes from change. Of course, this change has its own laws. Here, we just want readers to know that the only constant truth in the world is change. Therefore, when we start to stop ourselves, in a certain When wandering around, we will miss a lot of scenery.

Maybe, you think it doesn't matter now, but once you miss it, it will no longer exist, so, as the world changes, please change with the changes, don't stay where you are, take a small step, the world It is likely to take a big step forward; even if we don't think about the world, then we have to think about ourselves, because one of our decisions, one change, one attitude may affect our whole life.

And when we look back at the previous things, we will find that there is no eternity at all. Only the current self can determine whether it has changed. Let’s take a look at Mary’s story:
Mary tidied up the old things and accidentally found some diaries from the past.

The paper of the diary was a little yellowed, and the handwriting revealed the immatureness of her youth. She picked up a copy and looked through it.

"Today, the teacher announced the final grades. I never expected that I got No.5. This is the first time since I entered school that I didn't take the first place. I cried sadly and didn't eat dinner. I want to punish myself, I will always remember this day as the greatest failure and pain of my life."

Seeing this, Mary herself couldn't help laughing.She can't remember the scene at that time.It's no wonder that the failures and pains experienced in the past ten years since leaving school, which one is not more serious than not being the first in the exam?
Turn over this page and continue reading.

"Today, I'm very sad. I don't know why my mother did that? Is she really my real mother? I really want to leave her, leave this house. I have to choose a university in a few days, and I have to apply to universities in other states , far away from home, I will never return to this home after I leave!"

Seeing this, Mary couldn't help being a little surprised, and tried to recall what her mother did to make her so sad, but she couldn't remember.I turned a few more pages, all of which seemed nothing at all now, but at the time I felt "very sad", "very painful" or "very unforgettable".It was not funny to read it, so Mary put down this book and picked up another one, and opened it, only to see the words on the title page: "To the person I love the most—your love, will be with me all my life! My love, never change!"

After reading this sentence, the figure of a boy appeared vaguely in front of Mary's eyes.She used to think that he was her whole life, but after leaving the school, they never met again. She didn't know where he was and what he was doing now.She only knew that his love was not with her for the rest of her life, and her love had already changed.

Many people used to think that as long as they love someone well, they won't break up, but now they realize that if you treat him well, he will also love others.You used to think that you would never fall in love with the second person again, but once you experience the second love in your life, you will find that it is as sweet, tormenting, addicting, and deep-rooted as the first time.

Everything in Mary’s diary has changed, and everything she once thought was just a thought at the time, and only this kind of change will make people discover how wonderful the world is, and feel the joy that every change brings to them. meaning.We can't deny that we won't be like Mary, flipping through my old diaries and laughing at the past that I swore.What if, can only be fixed in the future forever.

Therefore, the future is far from what we think now, just as one second of the world is night, and the next second may be day, there is no standard to tell us where we stop, but only we can grasp the past and present , Three points in the future, we can make our changes meaningful.

Now you may be very young, so act quickly and let yourself bloom youthful vitality at the right time and place; if you have already felt the passing of time, then make up your mind decisively and start to shape a new self.The time is not too far away, and there are still many places in the world that we have never seen, so grab your backpack and luggage and start this journey of changing yourself!
