The Hardships of Youth, Money Cannot Buy It
Everyone cries and grows up!
All of us grow up in tears!
Any living thing needs pain and struggle during its growth in order to transform into a better self.
I recently told a story to a child that left a deep impression on me.
A young boy saw a butterfly cocoon on a branch in the park. He noticed a small crack in the cocoon and sat down to observe it.
The butterfly struggled to come out of the small hole, but after a few hours, the butterfly seemed to have exhausted its greatest efforts but still couldn't come out.
The young boy decided to help the butterfly. He took out a pair of scissors and carefully cut open the cocoon, and the butterfly easily emerged.
However, the butterfly's body was swollen and its wings were wrinkled, and the young boy continued to observe the butterfly.
He hoped to see the butterfly's wings grow larger and support its body so it could fly, but contrary to his expectations, the butterfly continued to crawl with its bloated body and deformed wings. It eventually died.
The young boy, believing he had helped the butterfly, didn't realize that the butterfly needed the painful struggle and the process of emerging from the cocoon to force fluids into its wings, allowing them to expand and enable it to fly after leaving the cocoon shell.
The struggle before emerging from the cocoon is necessary for the butterfly's growth.The young boy's help actually harmed the butterfly.
In real life, many parents act like the young boy, and the unfortunate butterfly is that poor, pitiful creature.
Many events are similar; the more you try to protect something, the easier it is to be defeated.
Japanese business deity Inagi Shohefu, when he was young, was a common man who struggled with difficulties and pain,
He failed the college entrance exam and contracted tuberculosis. He then participated in the exam with illness and still failed. It wasn't over; his home was burned down during the war.
After the war, Inagi Shohefu enrolled in a local university, but he graduated smoothly and successfully several times in his job search, but he repeatedly failed.
Finally, he was admitted to a small and dilapidated ceramic battery factory through connections. When Inagi Shohefu first entered the factory, he couldn't understand his parents' constant education of him, 'Young people's hardship, even money can't buy it'This sentence is truly deep.
Just like the butterfly wants to break through the cocoon and fly high, it needs the help of difficult and dangerous experiences.
If you want to transform and achieve a fulfilling and happy life, you need to go through difficult and challenging experiences.
When you feel like giving up and falling down, that's probably the beginning of your transformation.
Like Inagi Shohefu, he invested himself in an area he wasn't good at and didn't like, and harvested a lifelong spiritual wealth.
'Young people's hardship, even money can't buy it', Inagi Shohefu, after transforming, surely deeply understood the profound meaning of his parents' words.
The butterfly wants to break through the cocoon and fly high, it needs the help of difficult and dangerous experiences.
Everyone cries and grows up in tears!
