In traditional Chinese culture, there is an old saying rich in philosophy - "There are 4 empty in the house, and the children and grandchildren will be poor for generations". This quote reminds people to pay attention to family building by warning about four key "gaps" in the family to avoid adverse effects on future generations. Next, let's unveil the mystery of these four emptinesses together and imagine their corresponding images.
1.The purse is emptyMoral analysis: The ancients believed that the economic foundation of the family determines the superstructure, if the family's economic management is not good, the income is not enough, and the money bag is often empty, then such a family will be difficult to resist the risks and challenges in life, which is naturally not conducive to the rich life of future generations.
2.Bookshelves emptyMoral analysis: In the era when knowledge is power, if a family lacks the smell of books and the bookshelf is empty, it means that family education and cultural edification are missing, which will seriously affect the cultural literacy and knowledge of future generations, and may fall into a vicious circle of poverty.
3.Virtue is emptyMoral analysis: moral character is the foundation of life, and families with simple family style and noble virtues can often cultivate offspring with good conduct. On the other hand, if moral education is neglected in the family, resulting in a moral emptiness, future generations may encounter obstacles in social interaction and career development.
4.Ambition is emptyMoral analysis: ambition is the direction of leading the ship of life, if there is no positive spiritual outlook and lofty ambition in the family, it is like sailing the ship loses its direction, and future generations may lose the motivation and goal to move forward, so as to fall into the predicament of life and career.
To sum up, "there are four empty in the family, and the children and grandchildren will be poor from generation to generation" aims to warn us to enrich the family from many aspects such as the accumulation of material wealth, the improvement of cultural heritage, the cultivation of moral character, and the establishment of ideals and aspirations, so that the family can become a fertile soil for the growth and growth of future generations, so as to achieve the prosperity of the family.
