In the statement, the writer point out that people should work for the greater good of the family, the community and society as a whole, instead of pursuing self-centered, separate goal and being too individualistic. However, it is very unfair to come a conclusion just from the superficial behaviors or values which are sometimes just a kind of personal lifestyle. Thus it is a case by case question we should consider all the possibilities to analyses the phenomenon.

In the first place, I concede that some people nowadays care more about himself, such as how to improve the their title in the company, how to make more money even never leave time to have a dinner with their family or play with their children. All they care about is accumulating as much as property to show how rich and clever they are. From this view, the statement is absolutely justifiable because these people totally inverse the destination of life.

However, does the same phenomenon reveal the same motivate? Around us, there are so many people who work day and night and even don’t spare any time to their family, from the surface, they are self-centered, but with further inquiry you will find that what they do just represents their responsibility. Because they love their family，they never care about the harsh situation of the work and tiredness. Therefore, the statement simplifies the conclusion just from the kind of goal a person pursues.

What is more, if a person is really individualistic, does it mean that he leaves behind his family and country? In some cultures, it is advocated to be individualistic; because you can study something owned to yourself in the society or the science and even invent some new ideas and findings. We can make a assumption that when a lot of people talk about the same research, everyone has his own train of thought, nevertheless in order to get a conclusion, everyone has to make a compromise, which leads to the discussion to be nothing but a common sense that everyone can agree to. Of course, we didn’t cross out all the merits of cooperation which sometimes can make a amazing achievement.

In the development of human’s history, there are so many explorers who believe in themselves and even sacrifice themselves to show what the truth is which however at that time was call self-centered and separated goals. We can not easily judge if a goal is useful or worthless.


When I was in middle school, my headmaster asked us a question that what was our ultimate pursuing of the life which appears to be so old and boring today. The answers are various such as to make more money, to help others, to create a happy life for family and so on. Then our teacher came a conclusion that all we did is to pursue a happy life, easy but thought-provoking. So to sum up, no matter how we show in the lives and work, no matter individualism or cooperation, working for others or pursuing self-centered, don’t care about your goal is separate or long-term, the most important is that we should embalm in our heart pursuing the happy life to make our family lovely and our society harmony.
