Is your worry necessary(杞人憂天)
In the Spring and Autumn Period of China, a
famous thinker (Lee Yukou), he wrote a story.
There is a person in Qi Kingdom, and he is
worried about two things.
The first thing he worried about was that
he was afraid that the sky would collapse.
The second thing is that he is afraid that
the land will fall.
His good friend said to him.
This space we live in is composed of
countless air combinations.
We breathe in this space every day, so we
have life.
You don't have to worry that the sky will
collapse.
The land we live in is composed of
countless soils.
We live on this land every day, and the
human race continues for generations.
You don't have to worry about the land
falling.
After hearing this, the man felt that what
his friend said made sense, and he was no longer worried about these two
things.
There was a wise man named (Chang Luzi) in
the Chu Kingdom.
He made his comment on this incident.
He said.
Although the world we live in is so huge
for us,
But compared with the universe, our world
is so small.
So I think that if after a long time, the
sky and the land will disappear one day.
(Lee Yu Kou) also published his comments.
He said.
None of us can be sure whether the sky and the
land will disappear or not.
So when we face things we don't know, we
should remain flexible and in awe.
We should not insist on our own views, nor
should we be bothered by these things.
This idiom is used to describe a person who
has unnecessary worries.
Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts
did you have after hearing this story.
Do you feel worried about things you can't
control? Do you agree that we should remain resilient and awed when facing the
unknown?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains.

杞人憂天(Is your worry necessary)
中國的春秋時代，著名的思想家(列禦寇)，他寫了一個故事。
杞王國有一個人，他為了兩件事情擔憂。
他擔憂的第一件事情，就是他怕天空會塌陷。
第二件事，就是他怕土地會陷落。
他的好朋友便對他說。
我們生活的這個空間，有無數的空氣組合而成。
我們每天都在這空間中呼吸，我們也因此有了生命。
你不用擔心天會塌陷啊。
我們生活的這片土地，有無數的泥土組合而成。
我們每天都在這土地上生活，人類世世代代都不斷的延續。
你不用擔心土地會陷落。
這個人聽完覺得朋友說的很有道理，他從此就不在擔憂這兩件事了。
楚王國有一個名字叫做(常盧子)的智者。
他針對這個事件，他就發表他的評論。
他說。
我們生活的這個世界雖然對我們而言是如此的巨大，
但是跟宇宙比較，我們的世界是如此的渺小。
所以我認為，如果在很久的時間以後，天空與土地還是有一天會消滅的。
(列禦寇)也發表了他的評論。
他說。
我們沒有人可以確定，天空與土地是否會消滅還是不會消滅。
所以我們面對我們不知道的事情的時候，我們應該保持彈性與敬畏。
我們不應該堅持自已的看法，我們也不應該被這些事情困擾我們。
這句成語被用來形容一個人有著不必要的憂慮。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你會因為自已無法控制的事情而感到擔憂嗎?你認同我們在面對未知時應該保持彈性與敬畏嗎?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
