Reading history can be wise, and it is precisely because we can learn lessons from history that we can take fewer detours. In fact, a person who knows history will be better than a person who doesn't, so learning history can really make us smarter.
I can know from some policies of the rulers whether the people will be happy at that time, whether the country is strong at that time, and whether the talents at that time can see the future. In fact, we can all understand that history is worth learning from, but we should see the future more, otherwise it will only stop or decline.
Never believe that you are the best now, because history tells us that there is no best, only better. Arrogant people always disappear too quickly, just like Qin Shihuang, who believed in himself too much and fantasized for several generations, but only passed two generations. History also tells us that rulers often think of themselves first. Whether it is prosperity or decline, it is always the people who suffer.
In fact, people's ideas from ancient times to today are very simple, that is, to have a mouth to eat, but simple wishes are so difficult to realize, which is why I have been sad. In his position, he should seek his own government. Many words said by the ancients are worth practicing. For example, if you are poor, you will be immune to it, and if you are up to it, you will help the world. This tells us what you should do if you have the ability.
Today's society is really disappointing because it does not seek its own government. In the long river of history, some people live brilliantly, while others live depressingly. Maybe it tells us how to live a good life. Reading history makes people wise, I firmly believe that.
