The villain grows up.
From "The Analects of Confucius·Shu'er" written by Confucius during the Spring and Autumn Period
Original text: Confucius said: "A gentleman is magnanimous, but a villain has long relationships."
Translation : Confucius said: "A gentleman has a broad mind and can tolerate others; a villain loves to care about things and is narrow-minded."
Confucius believed that a gentleman should have a broad mind and be able to tolerate others and accommodate various events. Regardless of personal gains and losses. It is impossible to become a gentleman if you are narrow-minded, have difficulties with others and yourself, are often sad, and feel uneasy.
Commentary: A gentleman walks the way of a gentleman. The way of a gentleman should be based on self-cultivation. Self-cultivation is about cultivating yourself, not others. Cultivate yourself like a sponge that can tolerate all difficulties. Resistance, obstacle. This is the way of a gentleman. The higher the ability to tolerate, the higher the path of cultivation; the stronger the ability to tolerate, the stronger the realm of cultivation.
