After walking for a long time, it was late summer and early autumn, and the new coolness permeated the whole body, but when I saw that the sudden rain collected the summer heat, the phoenix tree was shocked. Fireflies fly late and the moon is bright. Huang Kui is in full bloom, and Polygonum multiflorum is all over Sha Ting. When the willow leaves first, the cicada should sing according to the law. As Sanzang was walking, he suddenly saw a high mountain with the top in the blue sky. It is indeed a moving star that hinders the sun. The elder was afraid and called Wukong, "Look at the mountain ahead, it is very high, but I don't know if there is a way to cross it." Monkey said with a smile, "What did Master say? Since ancient times, the mountain height has its own passenger road, and the water depth has its own ferryman. Is there no reason to understand? You can go forward with confidence. " Hearing this, the elder laughed at peanuts, whipped his horse and rode on a high rock. After walking a few miles, I saw an old man with fluffy temples and white hair. The beard is thin and long, and the silver line is swaying. A string of beads hung around his neck and pointed at the faucet with a cane. Standing at a distance on the hillside, he shouted, "Senior who is marching westward, stay in Huajie for a while and hold on to Yule. There are a group of demons on this mountain, which have eaten up all the people in the world and cannot move forward! " Sanzang was shocked when he heard this.

No matter how high the mountain is and how dangerous the road is, there will always be people trudging to climb it; No matter how deep the water is and how wide the river is, there will always be a ferry.
Appreciation and enlightenment
Adversity may be a towering and steep mountain in front of you, or it may be a rough river. If a person expects to have an extraordinary life, or longs for a better life, he cannot be afraid of adversity. There are no unconquerable sufferings in the world, there are conquerors and dangerous scenery. Overcoming adversity requires not only optimistic and open-minded beliefs, but also proactive actions.
The long road of life, difficulties and obstacles are inevitable. Pessimists are always complacent in the face of difficulties, while optimists can focus on the present and the future; Pessimists always deny themselves when they are in trouble, while optimists can motivate themselves to get out of trouble even when they are in trouble ... Pessimism and optimism, although only different in mentality, are enough to affect your life.
Life is like a song, adversity is the most touching note, which makes ordinary life colorful. I hope you can always keep an optimistic belief: there are no obstacles in life, and flower of life, which has experienced the baptism of wind and rain, will surely open more brilliantly.
