In the face of difficulties, the need to be brave and go forward. In the eyes of many people, loving kindness often symbolizes softness, no ferocious nature, which will be less brave. Indeed, in the secular world, elders loving their juniors tend to be less fierce and hostile, and juniors are always influenced to be less masculine.

Is this really the case? Undeniably, too much compassion will make people less bloodthirsty and more forgiving, but that does not mean that having compassion will make them lose their bravery. Compassion and bravery may seem to be opposites, but they actually complement each other, and even the ultimate compassion forms the most powerful bravery.

Lao Tzu said: "I have three treasures to hold and protect: one is compassion, two is frugality, and the third is not dare to be the first in the world. Compassion, so it can be brave; frugality, so it can be extensive; do not dare to be the first in the world, so it can be the people's tools long." The explanation of tzu, Laozi means that because of compassion, so can be brave.

Many people will question how one can be brave when one has charity, and what one sees is that those who are spoiled by their elders are always capricious and brutal, so where is the bravery. It seems so, but brave can be the spoiled people, but also can be the people who give and spoil.

As parents, they love their children lovingly, will be less severe, but does not reduce their own bravery. There is an old Chinese saying, "For a mother is just". It means that women who are originally very weak, when they become mothers, out of maternal love, can be self-empowered to cope with many complex difficulties.

When children face difficulties, mothers are always the first to step forward, their soft bodies can always burst out of a strong force, they will overcome all the difficulties, the courage to go forward. Even if the front is a mountain of fire, as long as it is for the child, they will ignore all the hardships, without regret to step over.

This kind of love is brave? Yes, and is the greatest bravery. Bravery is not afraid of difficulties, have courage, courageous, dare to do, dare to be. Elders treat their offspring, especially parents treat their children, and they are willing to give everything for their children while loving them, even if it is their lives, they have no regrets.

This is the spirit of fearlessness, which is the greatest bravery. However, this bravery does not come out of nowhere, but because of the love in their hearts. Because of compassion, so they are willing to face everything, bear everything.

Many people always say that "loving mothers are more defeated children", in fact, there are many such things. The mother is always loving to her children, can not wait to be able to bear all the difficulties for them. However, sometimes the love is too much, it becomes spoiled, so that the child is like living in a honey pot, lost to the judgment of life.

However, this does not affect the love is the most real brave. It's true that there are "loving mothers who lose their children", but there is no shortage of "loving and strong" things. This world does not want the child good parents, every parent will be for the child exhaustive, for them to think about everything in life.

However, the world is unpredictable, not how parents plan, the child can be how to live. Many times, the accident will always come unexpectedly. At this time, the seemingly weak mother will often appear around, to protect the child from the wind and rain. The stern and loving father will also come despite everything.

In fact, there are many injustices in this world, some people are born with the world, and some people struggle to reach the height of others born in their lifetime. However, no matter what will happen to the child and what kind of life they have, parents always stand by their children and are willing to support and help them.

For example, the dog who was born in northern Jiangsu, his family is poor, in going to study in the empire, his parents asked for help from the villagers and neighbors for his future, which requires bowing down with a brave heart, and even nodding to people. But everything they did was for the sake of Dog's future, and everything was done willingly.

Dog also lived up to his parents' expectations and made his fortune in the imperial capital, and of course he did not forget the help of his neighbors and did a lot of good deeds for his hometown. In fact, in the red earth, doing good deeds is also a kind of bravery, because this may face the greedy nature of human nature, the desire to gain an inch.

With compassionate love, there is giving, and with giving, there is bravery. The love of mercy is not decadent, what makes people decadent is the excessive love of mercy, only infinite giving, do not know how to converge to give, and forget to caution the importance of return. Compassion, so that life has a light, the light will make people become brave.
