1 Sigh at the ocean.
When autumn comes, the rivers fill the river, and the Jinghe River is big, and the two sides of the strait are clear, and there is no difference between cattle and horses. So James Hope was pleased with himself and took the beauty of the world for himself. Follow the current to the east. As for the North Sea, looking eastward, there is no end to the water. So Yan Hebo began to turn his face and looked at the sea and sighed: "There is a saying in the wild:' I know Pepsi, but I think I don't know my friend', which I call it."
Zhuangzi's Autumn Water in Zhuangzi
Translation:
When autumn comes, it rains heavily and countless small streams flow into the Yellow River. I saw that the waves were rough and the river surged, flooding the sandbar in the middle of the river and flooding the depression on the shore. The river suddenly widened, and even the cattle and horses on the other side of the river could not be distinguished from each other. What a spectacular sight! Hebo couldn't help feeling smug when he thought that all the water in the world had come to him. He walked eastward with the running water, enjoying the waterscape as he walked. He came to the North Sea and looked east. He was not surprised, but when he saw the connection between water and the sky, he didn't know where the end of the water was. Hebo looked blankly for a while, then turned to the sea and said with emotion, "As the saying goes,' People who know the truth think they are better than anyone else'." That's who I am! "
Moral:
No mountains, no flat land; Without the sea, there is no flow. There is a mountain outside the mountain, and there is a sky outside. Each of us is actually very small.

I'm jumping up, but I'm counting down and flying among Artemisia, which is also flying, which is also pleasant! " -"Zhuangzi Xiaoyao Tour"
Translation:
In ancient times, there was a bird named Peng. Dapeng bird's back is as high as Mount Tai. When it flies, its wings are like clouds covering the sky.
Once, Dapeng bird flew to the South China Sea. It beats the water with its wings on the surface of the South China Sea, and it takes 3,000 miles to flap it. It flew high into the sky, rolled up a storm and flew out of Wan Li in one fell swoop. It flies out once, and it takes half a year to fly back to the South China Sea to rest. When it flies high into the sky, its back is facing the blue sky, but the clouds are below it.
Xiao An Bird, who lives in a depression, is puzzled to see Dapeng Bird flying so high and so far. He said, "Where else does he want to fly?" We fly,
