Socrates replied: "Three feet." The young man was puzzled: "But many of us are more than five feet tall." As soon as he finished speaking, the Western Confucius said with a smile. "So people must learn to bow their heads." In this way, with a seemingly ordinary sentence, the great sage injected a valuable attitude towards life into the blood of mankind, which has still exuded the light of wisdom for thousands of years.

Once upon a time, General Han Xin lowered his head and endured the humiliation amidst the harsh sarcasm of the people in the market. However, Finally, he showed his pride on the battlefield with the flag fluttering, establishing the prosperous Han Dynasty; once, the young Xuan Ye lowered his head and allowed the treacherous ministers to call the wind and rain, but after several years of experience and growth, he resolutely captured Obei and created a new empire. The prosperous times of Kangxi and Qianlong were full of bells and dishes. Although they bowed their heads in humiliation for a moment, at the moment they bowed their heads, they all firmly believed that one day they would hold their heads high, and in the end they would be remembered forever.

Throughout history, Uncle Liu once condescended to visit the thatched cottage, lowered his posture during Kong Ming's eloquent talk, and humbly asked for advice. The momentary bow of his head earned the help of wise men, creating the prosperity of Bashu; and the great revolutionary warrior Mr. Lu Xun He also made an oath to "bow down and be willing to be a coward", work diligently throughout his life, use his pen as a gun, and save the poor people from fire and water.

Countless details in life show us: Only those who can be low can be high; those who can bend can't move. Only those who can express themselves can be strong; only those who can push can advance. This is also the eternal truth of life and the eternal dialectics of nature.
