君子固穷,小人穷斯滥矣。
意思是:“君子能安于穷苦,而小人则因穷而为非。”
自古雄才多磨难,圣人尚有断粮饿饭的时候,我们受一点穷困又算得了什么呢?
我认为,君子未必穷,只是自诩自己为君子的人才会穷。孔子、孟子可以是君子,张翼德、程咬金呢?未必就不是君子了。
所谓君子,起码应当是自己能养活自己的人。学以致用,这点尤其重要,学来无用的就是一介废人。
自诩清高的呢,也不是君子,君子应当可以和周围任何的人打成一片,《礼记》里不是说么:入乡随俗就是礼。知礼不就是君子一向强调的境界么?
男人可以是君子,女人同样可以是君子。
Imagine
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
