A Small Story of ZhuangziIn the Warring States period, there was a man named Zhuang Zhou, who was known as Zhuangzi. He was a philosopher and a writer, and he had a unique understanding of life and death, dreams and reality, and knowledge and confusion.One day, Zhuangzi was strolling in the park when he saw a little fish swimming in the river. The fish was delicate and lovely, and Zhuangzi felt a deep affection for it. Suddenly, a big bird appeared in the sky and caught the little fish, which made Zhuangzi very sad. He thought that the little fish had just begun to experience the joy of life, and it was unfair for it to die so soon. But as he watched the bird fly away with the fish, he realized that the bird also needed to feed its young ones and couldn't spare its own offspring.Zhuangzi understood that everything in the world had its own purpose and function. The fish was born to live in the water and die in the water, while the bird was born to fly in the sky and feed its young ones there. The fish could not expect to experience the happiness of birds, nor could the birds expect to experience the happiness of fish. Therefore, Zhuangzi believed that people should not pursue their own happiness in their own way, but should accept their own nature and fate, and accept their own life and death.Zhuangzi's understanding of life and death was that life was temporary and death was permanent. He believed that people should not fear death, but should understand it as a part of life. He also believed that people should not try to avoid it or seek immortality, but should accept it as a natural law of the universe. He said: "The world is made up of life and death, life and death are natural."Zhuangzi's unique understanding of life and death has deeply influenced Chinese philosophy and culture. He proposed that people should not pursue immortality or eternal life, but should accept their own nature and fate, enjoy every moment of life, cherish every moment of happiness, and strive for self-realization in their own way. This idea has become a core part of Chinese culture, and has been passed down to this day.
