Ramanujan is an unfortunate genius. I lived in poverty in India when I was young, and faced loneliness and exclusion in Cambridge as a young man. When I was finally recognized by the academic circles as my hometown, he had only one year of life. In the era without penicillin, he was fighting a doomed defeat against tuberculosis. Throughout his life, in the miserable life, he only found comfort in mathematics, and achieved greatness with his mathematics outstanding genius.

Perhaps the responsibility of life lies in this, find what you love, and no matter what kind of life you experience, try to seize the opportunity and try your best to maximize your talents. Although people with ordinary talents may not be able to achieve great results, they should always work hard for this. As Einstein said, "Nature gives us more desire than wisdom."
