My knowledge gained of the Analects of Confucius（《论语》）

Everyday at night before going to bed, I read a pericope of the Analects of Confucius.Everytime I read it, I regain the peace of my soul.the other day, I read the pericope of savoir-vivre,and shared it with friends here.I was so happy a friend said he learnt a lot from me. Reading the Analects of Confucius can make people of modern times wiser.Today I am gonna share some knowledge gained again.

   In mordern times many people feel they are unhappy,sometimes for no reasons, sometimes for many reasons.No matter what the reasons exactly are, we should know one of the reasons is that we are troubled by interests.Sometimes interests appear in a way of fame and gain.Sometimes they appear only in a way of the others' approval and praises and the the increase in your wealth. Confucius teaches us not to be so eager about interets. He looks down upon those eager interest pursuants. He believes persuing morality and justice.  Only with this self-cultivation, can a person make sacrifice to his country.

   Recently, many Chinese state they love their motherland,and can sacrifice to protect their motherland. In fact, in their real life, they spend most of their time on persuing the small benefits of their own. Concerning the national affairs and others' interests, they just show indifference.

   Though what Confucius teaches were mostly applied in his time, we can regain the power of soul to save the lost great morality and justice of a person in mordern times.
