Kua Fu Chases the Sun
夸父立志追赶太阳，渴饮河渭不足，北饮大泽未至而渴死，弃下手杖化为邓林。悲剧英雄：志向巨大，代价是生命。可读成对极限的敬畏。
Kua Fu vows to catch the sun, drinks rivers yet still thirsts, dies before reaching the great marsh, and his staff becomes a forest. A tragic hero of immense will—and mortal limit.
夸父逐日：以有尽之身追无尽之日——志向可敬，也需量力。不是嘲笑失败，而是看见渴与路：伟大常伴随耗尽。追日可敬，渴死也可悲——两者都要看见。今日：目标够亮时，记得给自己留水源。
Kua Fu chases the sun: a finite body after an endless light—ambition is noble, and still needs measure. Not mocking failure; seeing thirst and road: greatness often spends itself. Today: when the goal is bright, leave yourself water.
After the moral, ask one question: if a similar choice showed up today, where does the story snag? Name that tension first—then take your own step. You need not copy the ancients, only borrow their clarity.
