Do you still believe in the future with gratitude when the cobwebs mercilessly seal your stove, and when the smoke of ashes sighs the sorrow of poverty? When the sunset lingers on the back of the plateau alone, when the cold Gao Yuanfeng lifts its faint wings, do you still believe in the light with gratitude?
So, I have been thinking: What is gratitude?
With gratitude to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian resolutely went to the Western Regions, was demoted to Xiongnu twice, endured humiliation, but never forgot his mission, and finally opened up the Silk Road, which is famous in history. With gratitude to the people, Gou Jian worked hard, worked hard and had a rest, and finally got revenge, which was praised by later generations. Lei Feng studied hard, overcame difficulties, worked hard, lived a hard and simple life, and was ready to help others with his gratitude to the * * * production party. He developed the "nail spirit" with his young life. With gratitude to hundreds of millions of China fans, China women's volleyball team fought back with one heart and one mind, and finally let China women's volleyball team rise again after more than ten years of silence.

Looking back at history and reality, there are many examples of gratitude in adversity, which bother us and need us to understand it carefully.
I remember that Helen Keller, a deaf-mute and blind person, wrote in her autobiography: "Thank you for the warm sunshine from nature, for the keen sense of touch from my parents, and for the wonderful knowledge from my teacher ..." Such a severely disabled girl is grateful for her unfair talent, and she even thanks God's misfortune, because it is misfortune that makes her stronger and more unyielding than ordinary people. She overcame many difficulties and miraculously became a great writer.
I also remember Luo Xuejuan, the queen of breaststroke, said, "I thank my parents, my coach and my enemy." Yes, the enemy, the opponent on the field, gave her motivation, pressure and confidence to win. Why don't we treat every opponent in life with gratitude like Luo Xuejuan?
Yes, stop complaining about life, work or people around you. When you really live with gratitude, you will find that everything is so beautiful: thank your dear parents for breakfast, thank nature for the sunshine and rain, thank your teacher for teaching you knowledge, and even thank your opponent for letting you overcome another difficulty. ...
With gratitude in adversity, tomorrow will be better.
