This sentence comes from the eighth chapter of the Tao Te Ching, which reads: " The sea is big when it accepts all rivers. Standing tall without desire is hard." This chapter described how a gentleman should cultivate in order to reach his highest realm. Among them, the sea symbolized broadness and tolerance because the sea could accommodate all kinds of goods without feeling crowded or pressured; the wall symbolized hardness and tenacity because the wall could stand for thousands of years without being eroded by wind and rain. The meaning of this sentence was that a gentleman should be able to accommodate all kinds of things and people like the sea without feeling rejected or polluted; he should also be as indestructible as a wall and not be destroyed by any force. Only by sticking to his own principles and beliefs could he finally reach his highest state.

Is it a blessing or a curse?"Since marrying Tristan Flynn three years ago, Esther White had been a dutiful wife both in bed and in life. She bore the naïve thought that she could melt Tristan's heart with her tenderness. Later on, she realized that even melting glaciers was easier than moving Tristan. During the three-year marriage, Tristan believed that he could use two words to describe his wife Esther, dull and unimpressive. Nevertheless, she dared to humiliate him in public by throwing him the divorce papers on the anniversary of the Flynn Group. He stared at Esther, who looked composed and elegant in a red dress, and narrowed his eyes. Everyone thought that Tristan and Esther wouldn't have any contact after divorce, and even Esther was no exception. Later, Tristan was to present the best screenplay award to Esther at an award ceremony. After handing Esther the trophy, the graceful, icy Tristan suddenly begged submissively in front of the crowd, "Esther, it is my fault to fail to cherish you in the past. Can you give me a second chance to win your affections?" Esther looked at Tristan with a bright, aloof smile. "Sorry, Mr. Flynn. My career is the only thing I care about at the moment." Tristan pulled Esther's hand, his eyes filling with melancholy. "Esther, I can't live without you." Esther turned around coldly and thought, "Are you kidding? Why would I date a man instead of focusing on my career? Plus, you are my ex-husband."

I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

It all happened so abruptly. After finally grasping my situation, I found myself in an entirely different world. Looking around, I noticed others in the same predicament… Could this possibly be one of those Hero developments? Was there a tyrannical Demon Lord needing extermination, or would I be tossed into the maelstrom of war? Whatever it was, I was afraid. I never wanted to be a Hero. I don’t want to harm another…… Ignore the nonsense I was spouting; there was nothing to fret over. The Demon Lord was slain a thousand years ago, and 800 years had passed since the last war. The nobles didn’t treat us summoned like tr*sh; instead, we were kindly cared for. The Demons have been on good terms with Humans for some time now. Dangers, such as monsters, were being taken care of by the Guild and the Order of Knights. What’s more surprising is the fact that I wasn’t even a hero! Instead, I was unintentionally summoned! It also turns out that this world was a world in which the three races, the Spirit World’s Magical Races, the Celestial World’s Divine Races, and the Mortal World’s Human Races, are kind neighbours. Here, everyone lives a peaceful and fulfilling life. In summary, this other world was――at peace. What’s my plan for the future?

This sentence came from the Tao Te Ching. If the sea could contain all things, then it could become vast, just like a mountain that reached into the clouds, if it was not limited by any desire, then it could become strong.

With "the sea accepts hundreds of rivers, it is big to be tolerant. Standing on the wall without desire is hard" and "indifferent and clear will, quiet and far-reaching", I hope to have a little more meaning.

Alright, I can try to provide you with some ancient names based on my knowledge. 1. All rivers run into the sea: This name comes from the phrase "A great roc rises with the wind and soars up to ninety thousand miles in a day" in "Zhuangzi·Xiaoyao You". If the wind had stopped, it would have blown away Cangzhou. In April, the peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom." It symbolizes the magnanimity of all things. [2. Standing tall like a wall: This name comes from the Tao Te Ching: " If you are strong, you can become a saint."] It meant that the indestructible wall had a strong willpower and unwavering faith. 3. Indifference and Mingzhi: This name comes from the Analects of Confucius, Wei Linggong. If there is a way in the world, the ceremony and music of conquest will come from the son of heaven. If there is no way in the world, the ceremony and music of conquest will come from the princes. Since ancient times, the Tao has not changed. You can try!" It implied that he was indifferent to fame and fortune and had a clear ambition to pursue the truth. 4. Tranquility and far-reaching: This name comes from the Analects of Confucius, Zi Han."Tranquility and far-reaching, contented and less desire, you can be free from hunger and cold." It implied tranquility and peace. The pursuit of inner peace and lofty ideals would not be tempted by material things to achieve peace and tranquility of the soul. I hope these names can provide you with some inspiration. If you have any other requests, please let me know at any time.

The saying "The sea accepts hundreds of rivers, and its capacity is great" came from a fable in "Zhuangzi·Xiaoyao You". It was about a Peng flying in the sea and seeing many small insects on the surrounding water surface being submerged by the water. Therefore, it was ambitious and spread its wings to fly high, no longer limited to the small world in front of it. The meaning of this sentence was that the vastness of the sea could only become great if it contained many rivers, lakes, and streams. Similarly, we should also learn to tolerate the shortcomings and shortcomings of others in our lives. Only by accepting the different views and ideas of others can we truly display our talents and make ourselves stronger.
