杞人憂天

春秋戰國時期,杞國有個人喜歡胡思亂想。

一天,他竟然擔憂天會塌下來,地會陷下去,自己無處存身。這個人越想越害怕,便整天愁眉苦臉,坐立不安,睡不好覺,吃不下飯。

後來,有個人就去開導他,那個杞國人聽後,才放下了心。

成語杞人憂天譏笑那些沒有必要或毫無根據的憂慮。

Fear is often greater than the danger. 

​

In the Spring and Autumn Period (春秋时期,770-476 BC), in the State of Qi there was a man who always let his imagination run away with him.

​

One day he even worried that the sky would fall on his head. He was so worried that he could neither eat nor sleep.

​

Later, someone persuade him that his fears were groundless.

​

This idioms satirizes those who worry unnecessarily.
