Life is called sex, and white is called white, which is a famous sentence from Zhuangzi's Foreign Things. This sentence expresses Zhuangzi's thinking about the essence of life. His thoughts emphasize nature and inaction. He believes that everything has its essence and characteristics, and life is no exception. The essence of life is the feature of life, not the external form or representation. Just as the essence of white is white, the essence of life is life.
The meaning of this sentence can be understood from two aspects. First of all, it reminds us to know and cherish the essence and characteristics of life. Life is precious, and everyone has his own unique life characteristics and personality. We should learn to appreciate and respect the lives of ourselves and others, and don't despise or ignore the value of life.
This sentence also reminds us to be authentic. The essence of life is real, and there is no need for external modification and disguise. We should stick to the principle of truth and authenticity, and don't change ourselves to meet the expectations of others or society. Only by staying true can we find our own way and realize our own value.
The phrase "born white" expresses Zhuangzi's thinking about the essence of life, reminding us to know and cherish the essence and characteristics of life, while keeping true and authentic.

Zhuangzi introduced.
Zhuangzi (about 369 BC-about 286 BC), a famous Zhou, was born in the Song Dynasty during the Warring States Period (according to legend, he was a civil right in Shangqiu, Henan, Dongming, Shandong, and Mengcheng County, Bozhou, Anhui). Thinkers, philosophers, writers and representatives of Taoism in the mid-Warring States period were also called Laozi and Zhuangzi.
Zhuangzi should not be employed by Chu Weiwang because he stands for freedom. He only worked as a lacquer garden official in the Song Dynasty, and was known as a proud lacquer garden official in history and a model of local officials. His earliest thought of being sage inside and king outside had a far-reaching influence on Confucianism. He has a profound insight into the principles of the Book of Changes, pointing out that the Book of Changes is based on the way of yin and yang, and his three-tone thought is consistent with the way of three talents in the Book of Changes. Its literary imagination is rich and peculiar, its language is freely used, it is flexible and changeable, and it can write exquisite and unspeakable philosophies, which is called literary philosophy and philosophical literature.
