What do you mean fish are on land and fish are in wetlands? They love each other. Why not forget each other in the Jianghu?

Moral: Fish that meet on land because of drought help each other with their spittle. Why don't they go to Jianghu to live more comfortably?

Excerpts: Zhuangzi's Master and Zhuangzi's Tian Yun.

Authors: Zhuangzi and his disciples.

It's better to forget each other when spring is over and fish is on land. It's better to forget it than to be arrogant.

The weather is so dry that there is no water in the river, and the fish are crowded in the waterless wasteland; Spit mouth to mouth to save each other. It is better to be more comfortable in the Jianghu than to live like this. Instead of praising Yao and condemning Jie, it is better to forget both and attribute their actions to the original law of things.

Extended data value-added:

The meaning of "rivers and lakes forget each other" does not mean that we once met and broke off contact because of feelings or other factors, but refers to two strangers who do not contain feelings such as love and hate. The word "forget" in this sentence is a common way to express the contradiction between Yin and Yang in ancient China.

Help each other because of need, some because of material needs, and some because of spiritual needs. Affection, as if no one can do without anyone, is so tight, but as long as you adapt, you can feel happy; Forget the rivers and lakes, for the sake of freedom, one person's freedom is not easy, two people's freedom is hard-won, and more people's freedom is even harder. Everyone's freedom is just a utopia.
