Chinese Philosophers

There are lots of topics said in the article and almost of these topics are experienced by everyone today. Many of us are westernized. We want to have things that are made by the first world countries especially America. Why do we always desire for products made by other countries? Why don’t we use our own products? We must also give importance to our own pride, our own products because those are made by the hands of our countrymen.

Among the philosophers, I like Mencius philosophizing about profit. Men must not think always of profit, of wealth because it only leads man to commit crimes. All we need is righteousness. But how can we be righteous? We must always think not only of our own but of others too. We must give alms to the needy not because of the possibility that they will help us if they are in our situation but because of love to others and to their Creator.

Love is the answer to poverty; love is the answer to everything because God is love. Love is all we need to have a wonderful life. Imagine life of having a lot of friends that will be with you in happy times and in sad times. Imagine life of having friends to be with until death. Imagine life of love. Isn’t it wonderful? All we need is Love. We must love others for them to learn to love us too. So that the world will be at peace and we will not need of profit anymore but SHARING.

We must learn how to share what we have to others. Of course we need it too but if we know that we have a lot of it, we must not deprive others of possessing things like that. Share with good intention because it is an example of Love so let us do it the right way.
