Celebrity stories about gratitude

Example 1: The story of American President Roosevelt's eternal gratitude. It is said that Roosevelt's home was stolen once and many things were stolen. After hearing the news, a friend wrote to comfort him. Roosevelt wrote in his reply: "Dear friend, thank you for your letter to comfort me. I'm fine now, thank God: first, the thief stole my things and didn't hurt my life; Second, the thief only stole some of my things, not all of them; Third, the luckiest thing is that he is the thief, not me. " Stealing is absolutely unfortunate for anyone, but Roosevelt found three reasons to be grateful.

Example 2: Han Xin, a general who helped Emperor Gaozu paint the world, was in a very difficult situation when he failed to succeed. At that time, he often fished at the gate, hoping to solve his life with good luck. However, this is not a reliable way after all, and we should always be hungry. Fortunately, where he often fishes, there are many floating mothers (old women who clean silk floss or old clothes and old fabrics) working by the river. One of them sympathized with what happened to Han Xin and kept giving him relief and food. Han Xin thanked the hard-working floating mother for her kindness and told her that she would be rewarded in the future. Floating mother was very unhappy at Han Xin's words, saying that she would not be repaid by Han Xin in the future.

Later, Han Xin made great contributions to Hanwang and was named King Chu. Remembering that he had been indebted to his wandering mother before, he ordered someone to send her food, a table and even a thousand and two hundred gold to thank her. This is the origin of the idiom "one thousand yuan for a meal".

Example 3: During the revolutionary war years, in Ruijin, Jiangxi, the Red Army dug a well for the local people. In gratitude, the masses wrote the slogan "Drinking water does not forget the digger, happiness does not forget the party". That well is also called "Red Army Well".

Ex. 4: Xu Benyu has been helped by a kind-hearted person since he was a child. He can repay the kindness. Every month, 50 yuan's work-study bonus is donated with 43 yuan to a pupil who is facing dropping out of school. The subsidy for poor students in 300 yuan issued by the school was donated by 200 yuan to the activity of "Protecting Mother River"; 500 yuan, sponsored by others, was distributed to two poor students respectively; He won a national scholarship of 6000 yuan, leaving 2400 yuan for the teachers in the department ... Finally, he gave up the opportunity to continue his studies and became a primary school teacher in a poor mountainous area.

Example 5: Looking back on the days of Our Life, Kangxi, who is in his twilight years, can't help but sigh: Without Ao Bai, Wu Sangui, Gerdan and others, he could not have achieved such brilliant achievements. He raised his glass to those enemies who had been wiped out and shouted, "Be my enemy in the afterlife!" " "There is no need to study the authenticity of the details. It is an indisputable fact that Kangxi was an emperor through the ages, and his feelings were thought-provoking. If we can assume that without those internal and external troubles, Kangxi would be a mediocre Taiping emperor, thus drowning in the dust of history.
