Just Pick up the dignity

Picture credit

So some years ago, there is this young man who happened to be a Norwegian,the young man went to france because he actually wanted to go for an application for what is called the paris Conservatory..

The young man participated in the exam but the person who was the examiner did not admit him... .
　　
The penniless young man came to a bustling street not far from the college, tightened his belt and played the violin under a tree.
　　
He played one song after another, attracting countless people to stop and listen.
　　
The hungry young man finally picked up his violin case, and the onlookers took out the money and put it in the violin case. A rascal threw money at the feet of the young man contemptuously.
　　
The young man looked at the rogue, bent down and picked up the money on the ground, handed it to the rogue and said, "Sir, your money is on the ground."
　　
The rogue took the money, threw it at the young man's feet again, and said arrogantly: "This money is already yours, you must accept it!"

So After that statement,the young man just stared at the rogue and told him that "i appreciate your support,thank you sir..."! You actually dropped the cash, then i actually bent over to help you pick it up.... and now that my own cash has actually fallen to the ground, please kindly pick it up for me too!"
　　
The rogue was shocked by the youth's unexpected behavior, and finally picked up the money from the ground and put it into the young man's violin case, and then left in a desperate manner.
　　
In the crowd of onlookers, there are eyes that have been silently paying attention to the young man. He is the chief examiner just now. He brought the young man back to the college and eventually admitted him. This young man was called Bill Sardin, and later became a famous Norwegian musician. His masterpiece is "Brace up your chest".
　　
When we are at the bottom of our lives, we sometimes incur some unwarranted contempt; when we are struggling to survive, we sometimes encounter people who wantonly trample on your dignity. It is our instinct to resist tit-for-tat, but it tends to make those who lack knowledge and morality even worse. We might as well respond with reason and show and maintain our dignity with a tolerant attitude. At that time you will find that any evil will not be able to gain a foothold in the face of justice.
　　
Sometimes, it is your waist that bends down, but what you pick up is your priceless dignity..
