Zhuge Liang once warned his son that "a gentleman's trip should be quiet and frugal." It has entrusted the lofty aspirations of future generations and has become a famous sentence for thousands of years. Lu Zhi once said: If you don't celebrate, you will be exhausted; If you can save money, you will be profitable. From this perspective, frugality is really an ancient way to cultivate one's morality.

The ancient Greeks advocated four virtues, one of which was thrift. So why be thrifty? There is a famous saying in ancient China: bad cultivation of mind and lack of desire. It tells us that only living a simple and frugal life is the best way to cultivate one's self-cultivation and entertain one's temperament. Therefore, frugality plays a vital role in self-cultivation. Only when a person has noble moral quality can he serve the society and realize the value of life.

Different people have different understandings of thrift, and with the development of the times, it will also give new content to thrift. I once read a post on the Internet about a little girl suffering from leukemia. A few minutes after the post came out, there were many posts. After discussion and research by netizens, I applied for the Little Angel Fund in a very short time, and asked a sub-fund of the Little Angel Fund for funds to treat the little girl. I was very surprised at its speed and popularity. What surprised me even more was that this post was sent by a mainland singer, but the sub-foundation was set up spontaneously by fans of this singer. Since the foundation was established, donations have been remitted from all over the world. The singer took the lead in donating all the proceeds from his concert to the foundation. So far, the total donation has exceeded one million!

I was surprised by this move. I asked them and got the answer that they learned a lot from this singer, including frugality. Because the singer often participates in public welfare activities and becomes the spokesperson of the Little Angel Fund, this group of fans decided to follow idols, strive to be frugal in their daily lives, save money to repay the society and care for leukemia patients, so the first foundation established in the name of fans was born, which has helped many leukemia patients so far.

Many people don't know what thrift is for. Look at this example, don't you think thrift is to repay society and help others? From this point of view, thrift is really an important and meaningful thing, which reflects a person's moral level.

"Everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high." Everyone starts with small things to save resources and money, and then uses them to build the motherland and serve others. Everyone will become a noble person, and the world will really be like heaven-truth, goodness and beauty.
