Those who love others will always be loved by others; those who respect others will always be respected by others.

1. Source: "Those who love others will always be loved by others; those who respect others will always be respected by others" is from "Mencius Li Lou Chapter 2".

2. Interpretation: It means that those who love others will always be loved by others; those who respect others will always be respected by others.

3. Appreciation: Mencius said: "The difference between a gentleman and ordinary people is that he has different thoughts in his heart. The thoughts in a gentleman's heart are benevolence and propriety. A benevolent person loves others and is courteous. A person who respects others will also love him; a person who respects others will also respect him. Suppose there is someone here and he is rude to me. That gentleman must ask himself: I must be unkind. He must be rude, otherwise, how could he do this to me? If he asks himself whether he is kind and polite, but that person is still rude and rude, a gentleman must ask himself again: I must be unfaithful, right? What if? If you ask yourself if you are loyal, but the person is still rude and rude, the gentleman will say: "This person is just a madman." What is the difference between such a person and an animal? And what can be blamed on an animal? 'So a gentleman has lifelong worries, but no disasters that happen overnight. For example, there are worries like this: Shun was a human being, and I am also a human being; Shun was a model for the world, and his reputation was passed down to future generations, but I am just an ordinary person. This is something worth worrying about. What to do if you are worried? Just do what Shun did. As for the gentleman, he has no other worries. Do not do things that are not benevolent, and do not do things that are not in line with etiquette. Even if disaster comes overnight, the gentleman will not feel worried.
