Without compare, people will never know how lucky they are. Sometimes, people comparison can be to motivate themselves and others. However, comparison can make you feel low self-esteem. The good or bad comparison depends on your heart.
ReplyDeleteYour idea brought me new thinking. That reminds my experience that I sometimes felt down by comparing to someone, so I was persuaded.
DeleteHao qing I agree with you. For example, some children in poor area, they need to spend a lot of time to walk to school. The teaching equipment is very rudimentary, they even lack table to study. But all the thing cannot shake their persistence in learning. On the other hand, many students do not cherish current learning environment.

ReplyDeleteI don't agree with this viewpoint. There is an old saying that God closed a leafed door for you to open a leaf of window inevitably for you. Everyone has their own opportunity and situation, you think you are happier than others, but how do you know maybe you have something not as good as them.They may be happier in some ways than you. For example, children in poor areas may not get very good education, but they may have a better childhood than children with superior conditions. So we can't compare suffering and happiness, what kind of suffering is real pain, what pleasure is really happy. Your pain may be someone else's pleasure, your happiness may be someone else's pain.Thus, I think we don’t need others’ suffering, happiness is just our own.
However, if you did not know about the current circumstance that a lot of people do not have enought food to be alive, you would not notice that you are happy; you can eat enough.
DeleteI absolutely agree with you despite my opposite response to the issue. As a part of my culture, we have a saying which not far from the one you mentioned. It says that whenever you feel unhappy, just look around you and you will absolutely see others who dream to be in your conditions.
DeleteI totally agree with this topic. When I was a junior high school student, I injured my ankle because of practice for a field day. Then I had to walk on crutches for about two weeks, so I was in strained circumstances. To walk on crutches realized me the value of good health, and I knew that how happy I had been in a healthy condition. If I had not experienced the inconvenient life, I would never appreciate being in good health. Through the experience, I could know I was happy with my good physical condition, so I am all for the topic.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Sumika. And your actual experience made me convinced. Knowing someting sad, painful or terrible let us be aware of our hapiness.
DeleteHi, Sumika. I agree with you. Without compare, people will never know how lucky they are. I think one of humanity is compare, we like to compare with our past, or compare others.
DeleteI agree. Actually, there are a lot of children who cannot study in developing countries. They really want to study, but they cannot because they do not have enough money, so they have to work instead. In contrast, we think that it is natural to study here because our parents have enough money to let us study. Please imagine this situation that you are too poor to study. You would wish you had enough money to study.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your idea. After I knew that it is not normal to study abroad, I thank my parents and my circumstance as you do.
DeleteI strongly agree with you. In china, some children in poor area, they need to spend a lot of time to walk to school. The teaching equipment is very rudimentary, they even lack table to study. But all the thing cannot shake their persistence in learning.
DeleteI strongly agree with it. Because in this society, there are many children who have a wealthy family, they do not understand that the happiness is hard to earn, they are not only waste money, but also complain about present life. In my opinion, these children cannot image that how much a poor man pay for the life. So people can understand and get happiness when they suffered troubles.
ReplyDeleteHi, Zonghao. I don't agree with you. I think although this viewpoint usually are used to educate the children by parents, your explanation is a little bit one-sided. However, parents also compare our study with students have good grades. Thus, we shouldn't compare happy and suffering.
DeleteHi, Zonghao. I agree with you; people usually get psychological comfort by comparing with others. In this case, I think parents should say something correctly guide to their children, which is every penny form the labor's hand. People should cherish the fruits of the work of others, especially parents money.
DeleteI disagree with the point.Happiness lies on the process of pursuing but not the ultimate goal. People with ideals are happy; people who are satisfied with the things around them are happy; people who do not interfere with others and let others have a peaceful life are happy; people who learn about social contributions are happy; The person who loves and during the daily life in the family is happy; the person with love is happy; the happy person is happy.
ReplyDeleteHi Hongtai, I agree with you. We supposed to pay more attention to the process but not the ultimate goal. Happiness the the basic right to live. If we think about others suffering when we do our own things. Ourselves even can not be happy.
DeleteI agree with this statement since tasting it with a comparison of bitterness of life, makes it incredible. In our everyday life we pass through different atmospheres through happiness to sadness and back to happiness and vice versa. But usually the most worth and unforgettable moments always those who comes after hard times or traumatic ones.
