The most stubborn flower blooms on the toughest land

In the college debate competition many years ago, in an old topic "prosperity/adversity is more likely to produce talents", I am a positive, and it is easier to produce talents if I support good times.
After doing complex logical reasoning, I was persuaded by myself that there is a greater chance of talents being born in good times.
In the early hours of last night, after watching the freedom writers dairy, I thought that the facts might not be the same as the logical reasoning.
Human beings are complex and love to be cheap. Obviously everything is going well and there are few obstacles, but they often love to be lazy, relax and give up. When things are hard-won, they are inspired to fire, and the most dazzling sparks bloom.
Maybe my logical reasoning many years ago is still correct. The usual good times can create more "talents", that kind of normal and ordinary talents. However, those who have emerged in adversity, or who have grown up in good times, but only shine in adversity, can no longer simply use the word "talent" to label them. Those who are stubborn and unyielding tears, sorrow and joy, may be human temperament The most moving chapter.
