do not want to be harvested

The opening song "Big Time" has filled the atmosphere. I'll be the big noise with all the big boys There's so much stuff I'll own And I will pray to a big god As I kneel in the big church I’m afraid it’s not that these two sentences are in my heart day and night. I ran towards the mirage until the building collapsed, but in the end, of course, it wasn’t the people closest to the sky who were crushed to death. The value of restraint is to prevent short-term and personal interests from being satisfied at the expense of long-term and public interests, limit animal nature, avoid zero-sum games, and maintain a more civilized, moderate and sustainable society.

People can see the benefits of following the rules, but they are unwilling to abide by the rules, because the benefits under the rules are shared by everyone, the kind of everyone who is good, so good, so mediocre, and the temptation outside the rules, It's almost green in comparison. It doesn't matter who owns the extra portion, I don't even think about it, I don't care, as long as I get it, it's fine. A bunch of these people jumped up and rolled up.

Faced with such a group of people, I don't know where the future is going. Knowing that if you don’t go to the scroll, the one who will be harvested is yourself, so self-improvement and self-reliance, or to appeal and educate, emphasize the importance of social responsibility, and cultivate a heart of compassion for the weak. The former is that everyone plays the Hunger Games together, but the weak have the possibility of turning over by themselves; the latter is that the whole environment is more comfortable, but it can only rely on the conscience of the strong to wake up and put down the butcher’s knife.

I often think that if someone is strong enough, if they are strong enough to not hurt their own interests, they will be able to uphold justice from the perspective of God. But in reality, people always have a public mind and a selfish mind, and they are always entangled in their interests. As an ordinary person, it is enough to not be bullied and harvested too harshly.
