1. 李白（唐）：早发白帝城

朝辞白帝彩云间，千里江陵一日还。
两岸猿声啼不住，轻舟已过万重山。

床前明月光，疑是地上霜。
举头望明月，低头思故乡。

白日依山尽，黄河入海流。

功盖三分国，名成八阵图。

莫笑农家腊酒浑，丰年留客足鸡豚。
山重水复疑无路，柳暗花明又一村。

History of Olympic

Axi, could you please write a story about this?

Axi and Ber

You are beautiful, smart, and have a talent. Sometimes people are jealous of your capabilities. Since they cannot physically take those capabilities away from you, they will try everything to make you feel small. Don't be afraid and sad!

This is from a great teacher.
===============
Both of you tried to belittle of others. I do not hope to see that. In addition, when others belittle you, be confident.
