I remember our international teacher once said this sentence “IT was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” After Tump took office, from a goble view ,it is unfavorable to China.
Now, many people may complain the times of their life is too bad because of some reasons .But other people are very satisfy with what they have.
I think threats and opportunities are opposite. Because everyone has their mission. If you think you live in the worst time, maybe because your survival is facing challenges or under threat. If you think you live in the best time maybe because you can creat more opportunities with your hands or make contributions to make people live better.
Everyone has their own mission, everyone has to finish his mission. And the threat is survival ,because you can fight for a better life for your country. Opportunity is sometimes a threat ,just like the United States throw an olive to Russia. Opportunities seem to be challenge. So , for everyone it was the best of times, it was also the worst of times. So face threat, create opportunity to live better.
