Fortune-telling is born deaf _ Does fortune-telling look at your ears?

There is a famous saying that the test of a person's character is not how he treats success, but how he treats adversity. If a person can maintain good quality when encountering difficulties, he must be excellent.

The protagonist introduced today is the mother of the famous Prince Philip. When it comes to British aristocrats, people first think of a rich and superior life. In fact, the life of the nobility is often in crisis.

Philip's mother Alice is like this. She twists and turns, but always maintains the noble character that a real aristocrat should have.

congenital defect

Nowadays, society is impetuous, and people pursue all kinds of second generation. They often think that being born in a rich family is extremely lucky. And people who really work hard rarely see it.

Some people only complain that their origins are not good enough, but forget that we still have a sound body and can work hard with our own hands. Alice was born in Windsor Castle. She is of English aristocratic descent, but she was born deaf.

However, unlike the general public, she only complains about things that cannot be changed. On the contrary, she made more efforts to bridge the gap.

Alice's excellent character is probably cultivated from an early age. She knew that she was born deaf, but she was not discouraged.

The five senses are closely related, and deafness means that her language ability is also problematic. So, she learned lip language, and then studied hard to speak.

Congenital diseases make it more difficult for her to learn knowledge than other normal children, but she never lets herself fall behind. This is not enough. Alice maud mary has done far more than we normal people. She studies English, French, German and Greek hard, and the degree of Excellence can be imagined.

The terrible thing is not that others are better than you, but that people who are better than you work harder than you. Alice maud mary is like this. She never slackened off because of her aristocratic status, and she never gave up on herself because of her congenital defects.

She holds a state of mind that she is not happy with things but sad for herself, which makes her life full of difficulties shine. This is also worth learning from each of us.

Marriage is unfortunate again.

Alice, who grew up, became more and more beautiful. Coupled with her good upbringing, her gestures reveal elegance.

At the age of seventeen, she attended the coronation ceremony of Prince Edward and met her later husband, Andrew, the fourth son of King George I of Greece. They fell in love at first sight and got married soon.

They are very happy in a stable aristocratic life. Alice has given birth to four daughters. As we know today, Prince Philip is Alice's only youngest son. But it didn't last long. Prins Carl Philip was born soon, and then the war broke out.

As said at the beginning, only adversity can test a person's character best. There is nothing to see sitting in a magnificent palace and enjoying life. It was this war that exposed Alice's husband.

According to the tradition of western countries, when the war comes, aristocratic men will take the lead.

Alice's husband is no exception. After the outbreak of the Greek-Turkish war, Andrew went to the battlefield as a commander. But because of his wrong command, Greece was defeated and a coup took place in Athens. Andrew is about to be held accountable and is likely to be shot.

Alice couldn't watch her husband die, and their family fell apart. She had to bow her head and ask for help from her relatives.

Fortunately, George V was very generous and immediately sent troops to threaten Greece. Greece, which had already experienced a defeat, could not bear another war, so it quickly released Andrew, but sentenced him never to return home. The kind George V also sent the most professional Royal Navy gunboat to take Alice and her family to France.

These blows to Alice are nothing. No matter how many difficulties there are, as long as we can keep our family together, we can survive. Western aristocrats are unemployed and generally make a living by collecting rents from fiefs. Andrew was driven out of his country, which means they have no financial resources.

Alice had to ask her relatives for help again. In this way, their family lived with the help of relatives. However, at this time, Andrew did not actively look for a way out of trouble, but went to his mistress to indulge in wildness. Causing Alice to be heartbroken and insane.

Go through hardships without improving your heart.

After Alice became mentally ill, her precious child was given away by her villain husband. When she escaped from the mental hospital, her home was in pieces.

What is even sadder is that after seven years of reunion, her three daughters and their families were killed in an air crash, and Yin and Yang were never seen again.

Alice has had a rough life, but her kind quality has never changed. It is most precious to be kind in difficulties.

Most praiseworthy of all, she helped Jews avoid the Gestapo. Jews were killed by Germans, which is the true history we all know, and we also know how cruel Germans were to Jews.

But even so, Alice can distinguish right from wrong and be brave enough to help. She once took in a Jewish mother and her son and let them hide in their own house.

At that time, there was still a big gap between the nobility and the ordinary poor. It was valuable to take it at home. Not only that, Alice also successfully helped them escape the Gestapo.

Every time the Gestapo comes to ask for an inspection, Alice plays dumb. Forced by Alice's aristocratic status, the Germans gave up after several unsuccessful visits. Later, the Jews in Israel thanked Alice for her help and awarded her the title of "just man". After many hardships, Prins Carl Philip, Alice's youngest son, married Queen Elizabeth.

In her later years, due to various changes, Alice had to leave her native land. Thankfully, daughter-in-law Elizabeth is very filial and took her to Buckingham Palace to enjoy her old age.

Maybe Alice is not a person who likes to have fun. She died two years after arriving in England. But there is nothing to regret. As the saying goes, some people die heavier than Mount Tai.

Alice's kindness has always been an example for the nobility and a benchmark for all of us. History will remember her.

No one's life can be smooth sailing, and how to spend it when encountering difficulties is a compulsory course for everyone. The correct answer must be to face all storms with humility, and we should always be kind and sympathetic to the outside world and others.

Also remember, don't be discouraged and don't feel sorry for yourself. You only know how to escape and complain. Just like Alice's husband, you are doomed to be a failure. Even if you come from a superior family, you will inevitably become a loser.
