An Unexamined Life Is Not Worth Living Happiness does not drop from the sky, it’s to be created by our hands. Just as Socrates, a great philosopher and ideologist said ‘The unexami ned life is not worth living’. All things in their being are good for something, as contemporary university students, we must create a bright future for ourselves and by ourselves. Most importantly we should make our lives meaningful and contribute to our country. Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass, accordingly, an unexamined life is not worth living for us.(解释标题的含义)

Goals determine what we are going to be. For one thing, idiographic 独特的goals, which is like lighthouses on the sea and lead 指引voyages of people’s life, print out the specific destinations for us. A man, who has no lofty ideals, just likes the blind man riding a blind horse, and racing around without purpose, and life off course. For another, idiographic goals are the powers that stimulate people’s lives to go forward with achievements. Goals make people not content with the quo status, and inspire people to strive towards their future. As everyone knows goal is the hope that helps a man who is discouraged to match for the impulse of victory. In addition, goals encourage people to overcome the difficulties, and strive to achieve the bright side. Where there is no goal, there is no power, especially for the youth and the same to a society. Only holding specific aims, will we have motive to make great progress.

Generally speaking, for man is man and master of his fate. Happiness does not drop from the sky, we must create it for ourselves and most importantly by ourselves. Living in 21st century, we have to develop our country relay on our nation at the ground of increasing trend of globalization. Either for a person or a nation, Independence and self-reliance are two essential qualities. Zengzi, a Chinese ancient great sophist 哲学家and educator, once said ‘cultivate moral character, and then you could cultivate your family, administrate the country, and bring peace all over the world’修生齐家治国平天下. Therefore, we must promote ourselves firstly and then make contribution to our country. Obviously, we will encounter no fewer difficulties and problems during the process, but we are confident in our ability to overcome them and arrive at our set goal triumphantly.

A strong man will struggle with the storms of fate, said by Thomas Addison. As some well-known saying俗话, "great virtues have a huge capacity to contain things" and "to tolerate is a sign of greatness”. Only by making

determination, grasping specific target, and taking action, can we live a meaningful and significant life and escape from an unexamined life.浑浑噩噩
