the truth of life

Imagine the perfect life: find the ideal of your loved one, get recognized, and if you're lucky enough to catch up with a time of great change, plus you happen to be a genius, you're destined to change the world. Achieve a legend and go down in history forever. But after all, geniuses are in the minority. For an ordinary person, if they are lucky enough to catch up with the big era, they can also be a pig on the wind and fly in the wind. But the big era is also a minority in the long river of history. Most people only have mediocre talents, and they were born in mediocrity, and will be destined to live a mediocre life.
Imagine the legends that have been sung, do heroes appear out of thin air? Once the success is complete, the hero has countless cannon fodder to pave the way. The tipping point of history is the hurricane that formed slowly in the early stage and accumulated continuously. Then there are heroes, and then there are the flying pigs.
When looking back at history, the evaluation of cannon fodder is very interesting. Of course, never judge other people's lives lightly. But after watching this movie, I feel that the life of being a cannon fodder is more meaningful than being a pig that flies with the wind. The former makes history, the latter is just a speculator of the times.
Adhering to an ideal is painful most of the time, but it would be a real pity if one did not adhere to the ideal in one's life. Goodbye, ideals are not shameful; no ideals are terrible. No matter how long you persist, no matter whether you achieve success in the secular definition, you have paved a road for future generations. This is an inheritance that only human beings have. After all, to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and to reproduce offspring, paramecium will be able to, right?
