There is a saying that people forget the rivers and lakes. What is the complete sentence?

It is better to forget each other than to care about them. From Zhuangzi's inner chapter, great master.

It means that the spring water is dry and the fish's saliva is wet with each other. Why not go to Jianghu separately for more freedom? Metaphor is to help each other with meager strength in difficult situations; Sometimes you might as well give up your persistence and welcome the world with a brand-new self.

Here, Zhuangzi brilliantly expressed the view that Tao changes with fish.

The understanding of this sentence can be related to "a poor family produces a dutiful son" and "a loyal minister in troubled times". While praising the dutiful son, we ignore "a poor family" and "troubled times". Similarly, the reason why two fish need to "take care of each other" is because the spring water has dried up.

The meaning of "rivers and lakes forget each other" does not mean that people who once knew each other broke up because of feelings or other factors. Refers to two strangers who don't contain feelings such as love and hate. The word "forget" in this sentence is a common way to express the contradiction between Yin and Yang in ancient China.

Inspired by future generations:

Help each other because of need, some because of material needs, and some because of spiritual needs. Affection, as if no one can do without anyone, is so tight, but as long as you adapt, you can feel happy;

Forgotten in rivers and lakes, for freedom, one person's freedom is not easy, two people's freedom is hard-won, more people's freedom is even harder, and everyone's freedom is just utopia. How to choose is a choice that everyone must face all his life.
