Because of the beating, he ran and became the king

I earnestly do my hard-earned work, grit my teeth and persevere no matter how tired I am, and feel extremely gratified that I can earn wages.

When he was a child, he went to play at his grandmother's house. When he passed by the door of a store, he was attracted by the dazzling array of products.

As a result, the shop owner rushed out, mistook him for a thief, and beat him up. Although the fight was not heavy, he was aggrieved after all. He couldn't take his breath and decided to go to court.

But later, the lawsuit was not won because he was black and the shop owner was white. Despite such absurd reasons, in that particular country and era where black people were generally discriminated against, he could only run away.​​

In order to vent his unhappiness and let his heart have an outlet, he gradually fell in love with singing and dancing. First, he sang other people's songs, and later felt that it was not enough to express himself accurately, so he wrote a song for himself based on his own experience. He borrowed the form of singing to give good-natured advice to the young American generation at that time, not to use violence to control violence, if it is inevitable, then "Beat It".​​

"BeatIt" can really turn battles into jade and silk.​​

In 1983, he filmed the MV for "Beat It" on the street. The style of passionate rock just conquered a group of black gangsters who were booing along with them, and led them into the holy land of singing and dancing, preventing an impending gang fight. Later, in his autobiography, he wrote: "Those gangsters are very friendly, they don't ask for anything else, they just ask to be on camera."

With the singing of "Beat It", even the White House was moved. Then-President Ronald Reagan offered him a friendly proposal to use his song in a public service announcement. He readily agreed. He was also invited by President Reagan to the White House to personally present the "World Outstanding Youth Award" and "Special Contribution Award". Beat It" was included in the 500 classic songs in the history of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and he was also known as the "King of Pop".

The man who finally chose to run away because he was chased and beaten by the shopkeeper and kept singing and dancing to "avoid" is the famous American late pop musician Michael Jackson, who has amazed and missed countless fans around the world.

Growth without pain cannot be regarded as growth in the true sense, because the meaning of growth itself includes pain. It is pain that makes a person mature. For example, a person who has never felt the warmth or coldness of human feelings will never be able to understand the delicate and complex interests between people. Another example is a child from a wealthy businessman or a wealthy family. Unless he has experienced the decline of Cao Xueqin's family, he will only feel that the friends around him are very good to him.​​

Growth not only refers to the increase in age, but also includes spiritual maturity. Attitudes towards suffering change as the experience of suffering increases, and as a result, differences gradually begin to emerge from person to person. Negative people are destroyed by suffering, positive people fight against suffering, and finally achieve success that is difficult to achieve in good times.​​

President Roosevelt was very timid as a child. There was always a look of fear on his face. During class, his legs would tremble involuntarily as he was called to recite by the teacher, and his lips would constantly tremble as if exposed to the freezing cold. He was very slurred because he was cowardly and lacked the courage to speak out loud. He would answer the teacher's questions quietly, then slump back into his seat like a deflated ball. He doesn't even like laughing very much, because he is a buck tooth, and "laughing a lot" will expose his shortcomings in this respect even more for him.​​

However, as he grew up, he became more and more confident. He knew that many of his companions laughed at him, but he ignored it and walked his own way firmly. He slowly learned to make friends and made a lot of friends; he slowly learned to get rid of his inability to talk, he not only spoke a lot, but also made a loud voice; he had a problem with his nose, that is, his voice was very loud. But in the process of growing up, he turned this into his own unique feature, so that when Americans mention President Roosevelt, they always think of his loud snort, which they think is a strong and firm spirit.​​

He doesn't regard his flaws as a stumbling block that blocks his progress, but uses them to make himself stronger, and while constantly accepting ridicule and blow, he trains his psychological quality. In the process of growing up, he endured a lot of hardships, but because he had a positive spirit to face hardships, he gained far more from the pains of growing up than he imagined.​​

The fact that he eventually became the President of the United States was entirely inseparable from his attitude towards growing pains. It was the pain that made him mature, and made him gradually have the qualities to be a president. He is also plagued by polio and can only sit in a wheelchair, but his figure is getting taller and taller in the hearts of the American people. He was the first and most popular president in American history, a four-term president, and one of the most famous presidents in American history.​​

Yes, growth is inseparable from pain. Pain can make a person achieve the goal of growth more smoothly, and at the same time, it can destroy a person's future. It all depends on the person's own attitude towards suffering.
