Examples from ancient times who were kind to others but were pushed back by others and then fought back

If you are kind without a ruler, you will hurt yourself.

I saw a story.

There was a kind man who gave ten yuan to the beggar outside his house every day.

Although I never heard a word of thank you from the other party, I still persisted silently for two years.

Later, the good man got married and his expenses increased, so he started giving only five yuan to the beggar.

This time, the beggar spoke: "I used to give ten yuan, why do I give five yuan now?"

The good man replied: "I am married."

Hearing this, the beggar slapped the good man in the face and cursed angrily: "You actually use my money to support a woman?"

This is actually a joke, but it is not just a joke.

In real life, there are many examples of people who fail to live up to the kindness of others, and even take other people's help as a matter of course. Instead of being grateful, they keep asking for help. If you are too tolerant, you will spoil others.

There is a saying: endure the calm for a while, and take a step back to open up the world.

Since childhood, we all seem to be taught: to know how to compromise.

However, there is a line in the movie "The Godfather" that says it well:

"Being soft-hearted without boundaries will only allow the other party to take advantage of you;

Being unprincipled Kindness will only allow the other party to do whatever they want."

Timely compromise is a sign of being able to advance and retreat in a moderate manner and to be able to bend and stretch.

But when facing some people, your repeated forbearance will only encourage the other person to be unscrupulous.

Before Sanmao went to study abroad, his parents repeatedly told him to be tolerant in everything he did when he was away from home.

In the beginning, Sanmao did exactly that.

After moving into the school dormitory, she not only kept her house in order, but also often took the initiative to help her roommates with their work.

Over time, her roommates began to think that she should be like this, and left the making of beds, cleaning, fetching water and other tasks to her alone.

Even Sanmao's wardrobe was occupied by her roommates and became their "free wardrobe".

Sanmao wrote in "Scarecrow's Notes":

"They say that suffering is cheap, but now I have really become a cheap person."

Forbearing for a while does not mean that everything is calm, but becomes worse;

If you take a step back, it does not mean that the sea and the sky are bright, but that there is an abyss on the side.

Unable to endure it, she decided to rise up and resist, no longer being a "good person" who could be manipulated at will, and showed her principles and bottom line.

Her toughness was not rewarded by continued targeting, but by the silence of her roommates.
