When I was young, I was single-minded When you grow up, your thoughts will be scattered. You should educate early and don't lose opportunities. I read Lingguang Dian Fu when I was seven years old, and I still remember it once every ten years until today. After the age of 20, the classics you read will be unfamiliar after a month, but people will be frustrated and drop out of school in their prime, so you should study at night and don't give up on yourself. Confucius once said, "It's no big deal to learn the Book of Changes at the age of fifty."

Cao Cao and Yuan are older and more devoted. This is all from small to large. He is a 17-year-old scholar and is famous all over the world. Xun Qing came here to study at the age of 50 and became a master of Confucianism. Gong didn't read Chunqiu until he was in his forties, so he became prime minister. Zhu Jun didn't learn the Book of Changes and The Analects of Confucius until he was forty, and Huangfu Mi didn't learn the Book of Filial Piety and The Analects until he was twenty. In the end, he became a master of Confucianism. This is all because I was confused in my early years and woke up in my later years. People in the world think it's too late not to study in their twenties and thirties, and it's foolish not to go to school because they are conservative. Learning from childhood is like the rising light of the sun; Gerontology is like walking at night with a candle, which is better than closing your eyes and seeing nothing.

original text

Life is young and the spirit is patented. When you grow up, you should think about it and relax. Be sure to teach early and don't miss the opportunity. When I was seven years old, I recited "Lingguang Dian Fu". As for today, ten years have passed and I have never forgotten it. The book I recited twenty years ago was abandoned in January. However, people have difficulties and are in their prime. They should still be studying that night and should not give up. Confucius said, "It's no big deal to learn the Book of Changes at fifty." Wei Wu, Yuan Yi, old and intimate; It's all about learning less and never getting tired. Ceng Zi is a scholar at the age of seventeen, and he is famous all over the world. Xun Qing came to study at the age of 50 and was still a Confucian scholar; Gong read Spring and Autumn Annals for more than forty days and became prime minister. Zhu Jun also began to learn the Book of Changes and The Analects of Confucius at the age of forty, while Huangfu Mi began to learn the Book of Filial Piety and The Analects of Confucius at the age of twenty, and eventually became a great scholar. The marriage crown in the world has not been learned, so it is too late, and it is also a fool's ear following the wall. Young and knowledgeable, like the light of sunrise; An old scholar, like a night walk by candlelight, closes his eyes and doesn't see it. He is still a virtuous man. (Excerpted from Yan Jiaxun?
