Mr. Shigeaki Hinohara, a centenarian from Japan, was one of the longest-practicing doctors in the world during his lifetime, and he was also a person full of thirst for knowledge.
In addition to treating people every day, he also writes, publishes books, rides horses, and paints. In the world of seeking knowledge, age has not become an obstacle for him. He always insists on moving forward at all times.
Mr. Shigeaki Hinohara never wastes the rights given to him by life and makes every day meaningful.
His philosophy of seeking knowledge is exactly the same as that of the British philosopher Russell.
Russell said in "The Road to Happiness": "Ignoring the opportunity to seek knowledge is like entering the theater without listening to the play."
Many people give up the privileges that life has given them. Let time slip away by wasting time in pain, depression, and anxiety.
Everyone wants to live a wonderful life in a limited life, but they may not necessarily have the mentality to pursue knowledge and improve their own connotation.
In the pursuit of a quality life, age is never an obstacle. The key lies in whether you have the ambition to seek knowledge.
Under the guidance of her daughter, Jiang Shumei went from being an illiterate writer to publishing five books. She cannot do without her thirst for knowledge.
She started to become literate at the age of 60 and started publishing books at the age of 70. From then on, her life was no longer monotonous, but full of interest.
Now, at the age of 80, she is still obsessed with painting. Her thirst for knowledge can be described in one sentence: work hard to read all the words in the world, and determine to live a good life every day.
Jiang Shumei’s academic success has successfully verified a truth, that is: in the world of seeking knowledge, age is never an obstacle.
Gorky said: "The broader a person's knowledge, the more perfect he will be."
Everyone can expand his or her knowledge outside of work, and It is a pleasure to relax in activities that involve a wide range of other interests.
As we enter the age of destiny, we should also learn from Mr. Shigeaki Hinohara and Jiang Shumei. Although we cannot guarantee their achievements, at least we will not let age become an obstacle to the pursuit of knowledge and stop us. Not forward.
