Beijing - Confucius


(A statue at the palace of Confucius)

Confucius is very famous in Japan. He apears in various situation, such as books of business, or textbooks in school. His wisdom is often talked in people. The living of diligent, modesty, and strenuous.

He used to say, "The man in his thirties has to accomplish something. And the man in his forties has not to doubt." This word made me surprised, when I read this in a book. It's because I used to consider my thirties as like something fuzzy, but this word let me really awake.


I'll stand vigorously in front of my live. Living my life, accomplishing something.
