A famous philosopher once said that the more a person knows, the more ignorant he will feel.

Everyone’s knowledge is like a circle. The more knowledge, the bigger the circle, and the more interaction with the outside world, the more shallow you will feel your wisdom.

On the contrary, people without knowledge and wisdom, the more they feel that they are unsurpassable and unmatched. In their eyes, no one is worth mentioning. They blindly and confidently believe that they are unique. But in the eyes of outsiders, he actually looks like a poor clown.

A frog lives in an abandoned well.

The frog encountered a large turtle from the well. The frog boasted to the turtle: "Look, how happy I am to live here! Sometimes, when I am happy, I jump for a while at the mouth of the well; when I am tired, I go back to the well and sleep next to the brick. Only my mouth leaks out. , I quietly soak my whole body in the water; or walk in the soft soil, which is also very comfortable.

Look at those shrimps and frogs, no one is better than me. I am the owner of this well, and there is no better place than mine.
Why do you come down and have fun! "

After hearing what the frog said, the tortoise really wanted to walk in and take a look. But its left foot has not been fully extended, and its right foot has been caught by the wellhead. The turtle quickly took two steps back and told the frog about the situation of the sea:

"Have you ever seen the sea? The sea is vast, not only a thousand miles; the depth of the sea is not only a thousand meters. In ancient times, there were nine years of great water in ten years, and the water in the ocean did not increase much; Later, there was a drought of seven out of eight years, and the water in the sea did not decrease. It can be seen that the sea is not affected by drought and flood. Living in the sea is truly happy!

The frog heard what the tortoise said and stayed there in surprise, with nothing to say.

The world is beyond our imagination. Don't think that you are good enough at all times. When you think you are good enough, you are actually far behind.

You must be humble at all times and always remind yourself not to be arrogant and complacent.

Remember, true wise men are always like empty cups.
