Philosophy of potatoes, eggs and coffee beans

I read a very good English story two days ago, which deeply touched me after reading it. The following is its Chinese version.

Once upon a time, my daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable, and she didn't know how to continue living. She was tired of struggling all the time, and problems appeared one after another.

My father is a cook. After hearing his daughter's unhappiness, he took her into the kitchen and put potatoes, eggs and ground coffee into three pots of boiling water.

after 2 minutes, my father fished out the potatoes and eggs and poured out the coffee? And motioned for her daughter to touch the potatoes, peel the eggs and finally take a sip of coffee.

The daughter did, but looked at her father puzzled: Dad, what do you mean?

Father explained: All three of them have experienced the same adversity-boiling water

potatoes-and started to be strong, hard and unyielding, but in boiling water, it became weak.

eggs-fragile at first, the crispy eggshell is wrapped in the egg liquid, and the inside becomes hard after being boiled in boiling water.

coffee beans-when ground and put into boiling water, it changes water and creates new things.

how should we deal with adversity? Are you a potato, an egg or a coffee bean?

In life, things happen around us, things happen to us, but its quality depends entirely on ourselves

Yes, you are the product of your thinking!

Just these two days, I was listening to the philosophy class of Chen Guo, a teacher of Fudan University. After listening to the class I bought last year, my thoughts will be stretched and rippled. Her classes are really full one after another. Many people say that if I had listened to her class earlier, my life would be very different. I like her natural and cool appearance. Although she is a female teacher, she likes to put her belt in every class and tell the most profound philosophy, Socrates, Nietzsche and Laozi's in the most straightforward words.

Chen Guo's opening remarks are: To change one's view is to change one's living style. Last year, I didn't understand this sentence very well, but these two days are also transparent. We can understand it well by combining this story: your thinking determines your feelings. If you think you are a potato, you are a paper tiger who is weak when things go wrong. If you think you are an egg, you are forcing yourself to be a strong and mature egg, but you just changed yourself. And if you are a coffee bean, you will dare to innovate, dare to challenge, dare to change yourself, throw yourself into adversity and turn it into something beautiful, so as to change. Only in this way can we really "mirror with your heart" instead of "heart with the mirror"

start from the heart, start from the new, start from the letter, start from the line, Be you, be your self! Yes ,I can !

I believe I am a coffee bean, and you?
