This is a grassroots wisdom book passed down by word of mouth. It is a life philosophy book that collects the words of old people older than our grandfathers. These old people's words can be called "classics without words". Every sentence exudes the fragrance of earth and the fresh breath of nature. Because they come from life, have experienced the baptism of time, and have avoided the pollution of various ideological toxins to the greatest extent, they can be called pure wisdom. As the saying goes, "If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences before your eyes." We should absorb some wisdom and knowledge from these concentrated essences, discover the true meaning of life and feel the meaning of life.
Reader comments
Among all the books I have read, this book is the most complete and best in terms of knowledge and teaching methods. More or less the principles mentioned in other books cannot be applied in real life. Reading is to enhance your ability to survive in society and be decent. You can survive wherever you go. There are a lot of great principles, but you must know who is a sage, a saint, and who died in this world. It's the fastest. I really recommend everyone to read this book. I followed it from May to August, and I've read half of it. I can't say that I've completely changed my mind, but my growth can be seen with the naked eye. Believe me, after reading my comment, you must read it. This book has surpassed 80% of the books in Tomato. Come on, in order to gain a foothold in this society, you must keep reading.

This book is like a wise old man telling the true meaning of life in simple and profound words. Some of the ideas in the book reminded me of my own relatives and friends. Sometimes we miss opportunities because of a slight difference in thought, so we must treat every choice carefully. Moreover, the book also mentions that you should be careful about being "accused" and not be swayed by desires. This is really inspiring. I think this is a book that can benefit people a lot and is worth reading.
Well written, the point of view is explained very accurately, it deserves five stars!
Be realistic and benefit a lot.
