 　　Every time I think of you, a grain of sand falls from the sky, thus forming the Sahara. 　　Disappointment with friends often stems from their words and actions failing to meet one's expectations. But I believe friends cannot be demanded of, not even a little, because we have no right to. 　　Actually, living is truly a beautiful thing, not because of the beauty or grandeur of the scenery, but because of who we meet, how we are warmed, and then the hope that one day we too can become a little sun, warming others. 　　The sun hasn't completely set, but the moon has already risen high, and the evening breeze stirs the desolate wilderness, the air carrying the unique scent of summer earth and evaporating withered grass. Here, the solemnity of the mountains, the beauty of the grasslands, and the tranquility of the earth are presented so harmoniously. 　　In this world, cultured people often fail to gain respect in societies where others lack similar refinement. A tyrannical person, on t...

 　　From the purple parts of the spiderwort, autumn stretches out its delicate tendrils. Ripe walnuts are picked, and figs fall from the branches. I gather the ripe figs and feed them to the passing wild pigeons. 　　Standing under the ginkgo tree, I sense the wind with the heart of a leaf. My meditative mind resonates with certain patterns. I hear the sound of waves, a vast expanse of deep blue. Seagulls fly over the crests, their arcs stretching long, tying a knot in my heart. The lingering pain is the fault of memory; I can only blame the deep imprints you left on my heart. Now, I feel no resonance from you. 　　Choosing from the seasons, the September wind is the warmest. You, then, gave my entire garden its brilliance. You are my sun, the sunlight tilting so subtly. You are the rainbow candy in my heart, your daily sweetness telling a story of gentle warmth with radiance. We are connected at opposite ends of the earth, sensing the waves in each other's hearts. 　　Your words echo in ...

 　　Tell me, what's wrong with teachers these days? 　　　　　　　　 —Foreword 　　Learning to be a person before learning to do things; being a good person before handling affairs—this is a principle everyone understands and should be a lifelong creed. 　　Teacher ethics are the soul of a teacher. With societal development, teacher ethics have declined. Corporal punishment of students is rampant, verbal abuse is commonplace, differential treatment is commonplace, and many fail to serve as role models. Teaching is inherently a sacred and noble profession, yet it has been tainted by the behavior of some teachers. I don't want to elaborate on examples, but I will only discuss three qualities I believe a teacher should possess. 　　First, as a teacher, one should treat every student equally, without discrimination or ranking. In a society built on money, sycophancy is inevitable, and many teachers have not escaped it. They show extra care to students from powerful families, while ignoring those ...

 　　Li Chunlin 　　In the sweltering heat of July in Nanchang, the streets and alleys were nearly deserted, everyone seeking refuge in the cool comfort of air conditioning, either working or resting. Xie Chen's collection of essays, *Happy Times*, was about to be published in this very season of burning passion. On the eve of its publication, my old friend, the painter Peng Kaitian, conveyed Xie Chen's request: he said he was an avid reader of *Miniature Novel Selection*, a journal I used to edit, and asked me to write a preface for his collection. Xie Chen was Peng Kaitian's classmate and fellow painter; Kaitian was my colleague at the publishing house for many years, and I was the text editor; Kaitian was a painter and art editor, his reputation as a painter far exceeding his art editorship. I had no choice but to comply with my friend's request. 　　Xie Chen majored in fine arts in university and dedicated his life to art education. Yet, while reaping the rewards of his a...

 We are all blind. The stingy know the blind man; he only sees gold, not wealth. The extravagant are blind; they only see the beginning, not the end. The showy woman is blind; she cannot see her wrinkles. The learned know the blind man; he cannot see his own ignorance. The honest are blind; they cannot see the wicked. The wicked are blind; they cannot see God. God is also blind; when He created the world, He did not see that the devil had infiltrated. I am blind too; I only know how to talk and talk, not seeing that you are all deaf.

 　　[Persuading People to Do Good] One can persuade people with words for a time, but with books for a hundred generations. 　　One must strive to recognize one's faults daily and correct them daily; a day without recognizing one's faults is a day of complacency; a day without faults to correct is a day without progress. There are many intelligent and talented people in the world, yet those who do not cultivate virtue or expand their knowledge do so simply because of procrastination, thus wasting their lives. 　　Helping others according to circumstances is a complex matter, but its essence can be summarized in ten points: First, be kind to others; Second, cherish love and respect; Third, help others achieve their goals; Fourth, persuade others to do good; Fifth, rescue those in danger; Sixth, undertake projects of great benefit; Seventh, give alms for good; Eighth, uphold the Dharma; Ninth, respect elders; Tenth, cherish all life. 　　When one's heart is solely focused on doing g...

 　　In my childhood, my family lived on an unnamed island in the Seto Inland Sea. I often went fishing with my father. 　　The area where we cast our nets was the main shipping lane, constantly bustling with passenger and cargo ships. For safety, whenever night fell, we would light a set of red lights to warn oncoming ships. 　　Being a novice, I was tasked with monitoring the ships and signaling for help with the light. 　　The winter night sea was fierce, with biting winds and frost. I wore extra layers of clothing, but they absorbed all the moisture from the sea, making them feel even heavier and colder. 　　Our small boat rocked on the waves, struggling to rise and fall. 　　My father went to sleep, and I continued to watch the sea. In my weariness, I suddenly noticed shimmering waves on the surging surface. Looking closer, I saw a brightly lit, luxuriously decorated passenger ship approaching. It saw my red light and seemed to be avoiding us. 　　As the passenger ship approached, the men a...

 　　Never forget your original intention, and you will achieve your goal. It's easy to have an initial intention, but difficult to maintain it.  　　Never forget your initial intention, and you will achieve your goal; if you forget your initial intention, illusions will vanish and delusion will perish.  　　Never forget your initial intention, and you will achieve your goal; not rejecting your true nature is called freedom. 　　All sentient beings possess the wisdom and virtues of the Tathagata, but due to delusions and attachments, they cannot realize it. 　　To become a great Buddha, one must first be a good sentient being. 　　Just as a lotus does not cling to water, just as the sun and moon do not dwell in the sky. 　　All the evil deeds I have committed in the past, all due to beginningless greed, anger, and ignorance, arising from body, speech, and mind, I now repent of them all. 　　"In the Buddha-land, five-colored stems grow; one flower, one world; one leaf, one Tathagata." 　　T...

 January 21st, what a memorable day... I think I will never forget this day in my life... In the early morning, around nine o'clock, I was passing by a river, and was about to have a cup of tea by the river under the bridge to ward off the cold, when I faintly heard what sounded like wolves howling. Wolves? Perhaps this isn't unusual in this desolate place (Wulipo, Wuzhong, Ningxia...). I've been in Ningxia for over a year and have only seen a wild fox once... I've never seen a wolf... I listened carefully; the sound seemed to be coming from under a bridge arch. I walked onto the frozen river (the temperature was -15 degrees Celsius, and even the nearby Yellow River was frozen solid). Standing on the river, I looked into the bridge arch; it was pitch black. The arch was about 50 meters long, with no end in sight. The sound was coming from within, growing softer and softer... I listened carefully; the sound was hoarse and hollow, slightly jarring in this desolate wildern...

 　　I gradually slow my pace. Those who pass by me, please don't speak. Who is still struggling in silence, reopening those insignificant scars? The square in the dead of night is devoid of the daytime clamor. 　　Like a fool, I drag my feet, chilled by the wind. Those who brush past me, please treat me as a joke. Now, I'm jet-lagged with intelligence… 　　Year after year, season after season, poor little grass, your withered body. Without leaves, how will you shelter from the rain? That winding path, where does it lead? Heaven or hell… 　　How can this little rain seep into my heart? The chill of the mountains, don't try to take away my shirt… 　　The mountain path, winding and twisting, pitifully, I start from the beginning. Cold wind, cold rain, chilling myself. And who is it that comes towards me? The misty rain stings my scalp, sending shivers of cold. Boring radio broadcasts, such tedious stories—please don't mention them. I won't admit it. You stole my thoughts. Left ...

 　　Life's journey is filled with flowers and tears. There are beautiful landscapes and repulsive places. No one's life can have a perfect beginning and end, nor can it be one of perpetual torment. Learning to appreciate them from a different perspective can transform them into a beautiful scene.  　　Learn to appreciate, appreciate the beautiful scenery. Success is wonderful, exhilarating. When you feel down, looking back at your successes will ignite your inner strength and rekindle your heroic spirit. When you admire the magnificent landscapes of your motherland, do you ever think of your past successes? 　　 　　Learn to appreciate, appreciate the somber loneliness. Loneliness can be terrible, but it can be understood in another way. Too much noise is worse than a little quiet. Cultivate your character, strengthen your mind, become refined, no less noble than the famous poets of ancient dynasties, and cultivate a spirit where solitude is golden. 　　 　　Learn to appreciate, apprecia...

 　　A person, a book, a cup of tea; a pair of feet, a road, a distant horizon. 　　In the flowing, soaring words, one finds a sanctuary, a place for emotions to rest. Closing one's eyes, one wanders freely in the vibrant world constructed by Zhu Ziqing, finding resonance, fearless and undaunted. 　　Time flies, days rushing by like flowing water. In "Hurry," it is mentioned that our days are gone forever; the author's days drip into the stream of time, without sound or shadow. He not only asks himself, "The past days are like light smoke, scattered by the breeze; like thin mist, evaporated by the rising sun. What traces have I left?" I am stunned. Yes, as he said, we come into this world naked, and in the blink of an eye, we will return naked. 　　Whenever I see him ask me this question, I always fall into a deep, silent contemplation, unable to extricate myself. His thoughts are also my own. For over a decade, I have walked on sand, light and breezy, leaving no fo...

 　　My grandmother used to tell me: To try something, start by reading a book, writing a word, cooking a dish, or loving someone. Even if your handwriting is terrible, your cooking is bland, or you love the wrong person, don't be afraid. Because as human beings, we make countless mistakes, ruin countless meals, and misjudge countless people in our lives. At least you remember them—they are things no one can take away or carry with them, and they won't fade with time. They are vivid and alive in your memory and mind.  　　I know what I want, I'm certain, and I won't explain  further. 　　I use my paintbrush to depict a blueprint for myself and others' lives.   　　Action is the framework, perseverance is the structure, confidence is the background,  　　and paint is the ideal. My paintings depict a vast world: 　　street scenes, alleyways, bustling traffic, pyramids, and the Louvre 　　yet, even the most magnificent wings cannot capture the image of you in my mind. 　　No ...

 　　How difficult is it for the cleaning supervisors and team leaders at Evergrande Mingdu? It can be summarized in nine words: hoarse voice, exhausted legs, and physically and mentally drained. While this may seem exaggerated or alarmist, it's the reality. 　　First, hoarse voices. Evergrande Mingdu has a large number of cleaners, currently over a hundred, and this number will increase once all four phases are completed. Managing over a hundred employees is no easy task. Due to the generally low employee quality and other factors, simply being strict isn't enough; a combination of firmness and leniency is necessary. However, leniency is often used, sometimes even resorting to coaxing. Different approaches are needed for different people, and this is the only way to get them to work. That's the only way; that's the working environment. Secondly, roll call, headcount checks, and task assignments all require attention. For example, if the number of people isn't enough, r...

 　　 Since the pre-Qin period, the people of China have upheld the principle that "a man should study to become an official, while a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent." Thus, the ancient saying goes, "A talented man and a beautiful woman, a talented 　　scholar and a beautiful woman." Looking at the talented women of the past dynasties, their fates were tragic. Zhuo Wenjun eloped with Sima Xiangru, but sadly, at the young age of seventeen, she was widowed in her parents' home; Li Qingzhao received a good education from childhood, but her life was filled with hardship; Cai Wenji was learned and eloquent, skilled in poetry and music, yet she married three times; Shangguan Wan'er became a female prime minister, but before she reached fifty, she was brutally murdered by Emperor Xuanzong (Li Longji). It truly reflects the saying, "A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, her beauty is a blessing, but both talent and beauty are a curse."...

  　　My first trip to Guangzhou was like "Chen Huansheng entering the city"—everything was new and exciting. After wandering around all morning, I was exhausted and starving. Guangzhou is a beautiful city, but for a northerner like me, finding food was the biggest challenge. There were plenty of restaurants, but rice was my least favorite food. Plus, southern cuisine was either bland, seafood, or spicy Hunan, Hubei, or Sichuan style. I'm allergic to potatoes and noodles, and seafood and spicy food are a nightmare. Finding a suitable noodle shop was truly difficult. Just as I was feeling disappointed, I suddenly spotted a beef noodle shop at the entrance of a small alley. I immediately felt like I'd found a hidden gem. 　　 The noodle shop wasn't big; eight tables were crammed into a large room. As the saying goes, "Good food needs no bush," and every stool was occupied. I chatted with the owner at the cashier. It turned out they were from Hualong County, Qi...

 　　The salmon in the deep ocean: After laying their eggs, the mother salmon stays by her side. The hatched fry cannot find food and can only grow by eating their mother's flesh. The mother salmon endures excruciating pain, allowing herself to be torn apart. The fry grow up, but the mother is reduced to a pile of bones, silently interpreting the greatest maternal love in the world. The salmon is a fish of maternal love. 　　The snakehead fish of Weishan Lake: After giving birth, this fish goes blind and cannot find food, forced to endure hunger. The hundreds of hatched fry, naturally intelligent, cannot bear to see their mother starve, so they swim one by one into her mouth to feed her. The mother fish survives, but less than one-tenth of her offspring survive; most sacrifice their young lives for their mother. The snakehead fish is a fish of filial piety. 　　The salmon: Every year during the spawning season, salmon go to great lengths to migrate from the ocean to their birthplace on l...

 　　The philosopher Kant said that two things fill him with awe and wonder: the starry heavens above him and the moral law within him. I think these two things are like two mirrors, which we need to constantly polish to prevent them from becoming dusty. 　　Using the sky as a mirror, we can see our own insignificance, thus avoiding arrogance and making a fool of ourselves; using the moral law within us as a mirror, we can constantly examine ourselves and consciously regulate our words and actions. 　　There are always some people in this world who hold a bright mirror but only reflect on others. They only see the gloom in the sky, not the rainbow after the rain; they only see the sunspots, not the warmth of the sun. They also understand the moral law, but they only use it to demand things of others, not to restrain themselves. Therefore, they find fault with everyone and everything; they are cynical, lamenting their unfulfilled potential and bad timing. Such people only need to turn the...
