On a fast-moving train, an old man accidentally dropped one of the new shoes he had just bought from the window. Passengers around him felt sorry for it, but the old man resolutely threw the other shoe down as well. Everyone was puzzled by this, but the old man smiled calmly: "No matter how expensive the shoe is, if the remaining one is of little use to me. Throw it down, and the person who picks it up may get a new pair of shoes. Maybe he can still wear it." The old man's seemingly abnormal behavior reflects his sober value judgment: It is better to give up than to cling to what is incomplete; it is better to help others than to be useless to oneself.

If you lose in this aspect, you will be compensated in that aspect. While you regret the loss, there may be another unexpected gain. 3. Rabindranath Tagore said: "If you shed tears because you lost the sun, you have also lost the stars."
