In my eyes, many old sayings are profound. Take the sentence "Don't do it for the small good, don't do it for the small evil" as an example, which has profound implications.

"Don't do small things with kindness" is my understanding, and everything should start with small things. A good thing, a well-intentioned little thing, may be just a trivial thing for you, but it may cause earth-shaking changes for others. Perhaps your kind encouragement will make a child who loses courage in his studies become a good student who is eager for strength and positive; Maybe it's your warm smile that makes a person who is going to commit suicide stop dying and feel the warmth of the world; Pick up a piece of paper on the ground, let our foreign friends know the good habits of the people of China and safeguard the dignity of the country. Perhaps it is your habitual action. It may also be a friendly act of covering the manhole cover, so that passers-by can avoid the danger of injury. ...

Indeed, many "good and small" can benefit others, but on the contrary, many "evil and small" can make people lose too much. Perhaps some people finally become unscrupulous robbers, just because of a little greed when they were young, petty theft is a temporary pleasure, and it is this accumulation of "small evils" that leads to one tragedy after another. Therefore, "don't do it with small evils."

And sometimes, you can't ignore the role of a small matter, which may prevent a tragedy from happening. I remember that the king of Wu wanted to attack the State of Chu and warned the ministers that "whoever does not listen to advice will be beheaded". A young disciple of the king of Wu was very worried, and it was not the way to remonstrate. So he stood in the back garden with a slingshot all night, and his clothes were wet with dew. He still stands firm. After three days and nights, the king of Wu came to see him and said, "You are my favorite student, so why bother?" The young man replied, "Look at that tree. There is a cicada in the tree. Cicada is on the top of the tree, crying sadly, but she doesn't know there is a mantis behind her. Mantis stuck her body in a hidden place, just trying to catch cicada, but she didn't know there was a yellowbird hiding by. The yellowbird craned its neck to peck at the mantis, but didn't know that I was aiming at it with a slingshot. You see, they all only seek immediate interests, but they don't care about the hidden dangers behind them. " Hearing this, the prince of Wu realized that he immediately ordered to stop the attack plan. Through a small metaphor, the counselor of the State of Wu easily stopped a bloodshed and saved the possible disaster of the State of Wu! Don't underestimate the skill of a small matter!

Small good, small evil, small good and small evil are always in your mind. Seize every opportunity around you and try your best! Try your best to do good things for the people around you, and you will have more friends!

Finally, I would like to remind everyone-"Don't use small kindness, don't use small evil" * *!
