when i hear bigg businesses or strong relationships break.. i will jus sit back and stare in space.. thinkin of wat could hav actualli happen..
kinda reminded me for another romance of the 3 kingdoms story again..
after the famous military adviser zhu-ge liang died.. the kingdoms shu and wei did not fall in their kingdom strength.. but they fall when the emperor of the 2 kingdoms do not hav a vision 4 their country as they were laid back and jus wanted 2 enjoy gdd life.. the emperor of shu onli noe how 2 eat drink and b merry and do not wan 2 care abt any political matters.. whereas the emperor of wei is onli a child and he do not noe wat he needs 2 do 2 strengthen his kingdom.. as such.. the authority of shu was actualli given 2 a eunuch while the authority of wei was given 2 the general-in-command.. who is a power hungry minister..
meanwhile in the country of shu.. there was the general-in-command.. who stays faithful and loyal and committed 2 shu becoz of his gratitude towards the late prime minister zhu-ge liang.. however.. as he places his ambition over his country.. he was bein sabotaged time and again by the eunuch despite runnin 9 military expeditions against the kingdom of wei as each time he returned empty handed..
in the kingdom of wei.. the general had no regards 4 the emperor as he gives orders to the emperor's subjects as and when he pleases.. he even made use of the emperor's armies and items for his own comfort.. each time the emperor pick up his guts 2 come against him.. he would jus plot 2 kill the emperor and would then replace any child along the lineage of the royal family..
the fall of shu came when the emperor had no regards of the invasion of wei.. as a result.. many impt cities were lost and the general-in-command was forced 2 retreat towards the capital.. instead of raising an army 2 fight.. the emperor listened 2 the eunuch and consulted a witch 2 foretell the future of his kingdom.. and as a result.. the capital was fallen and the general-in-command could not remedy the situation and died in a plot thereafter.. the emperor was captured and the kingdom is finished..
the fall of wei came when the minister died and his son took over his duties.. one day he jus stepped into the palace and demanded the emperor to hand over the throne.. the emperor had no choice but 2 agree.. and so the emperor was exiled and the kingdom is finished..
by not havin a vision.. life could jus fall apart.. and i realize tt to hav a great vision.. we mus hav gddd friendz 2 help us build our lives and liven up our thinkin..
in zhu-ge liang's famous masterpiece 《出师表》he wrote tt:
亲贤臣,远小人,乃前汉之所以而强盛也。
亲小人,远贤臣,乃后汉之所以而颓废也。
(translation: befriend the gddd subjects and keep out the badd ones.. this is how the the dynasty became strong when it was established.. befriend the badd subjects and keep out the gdd ones.. this is how the dynasty became weak at the later stage..)
