Ouch!

Confucianism is about the goodness of people. I had heard about Confucius before because my mom is interested in our cultural knowledge and usually takes us to museums. One time we were in Canada and they had an exposition on Confucius theories and about the Chinese. My mom bought the book about the theories but not the analects book we are reading right now so I had read about it before and I found it very interesting analyzing it in class.
“Those who are good feel at home in Goodness, whereas those who are clever follow Goodness because they feel that they will profit from it.” (p.10) this quotation I agree with, the world has become forced goodness. The school used to take us to the hogar forced us to there were some people who wanted to go but others just had to so they could benefit from it and avoid punishment. So we can see that celebrities some times donate money to foundations in order to clean their names or to look good which works but no necessarily is because they want to. Who is able to leave a room without going out through the door? How is it, then, that no one follows this Way? (p.17) this tells that people know that it is the only way but they try to find another when there isn’t one. This could also be people are sometimes not satisfied with what they have so they keep looking for something that is not there.
The things that I read seem to be something that you can use on daily bases. Because sometimes I am forced to do good but now, I can try to do it because I want to not because I have to. I felt bad reading Confucius because I realized I am not as good as a person I could be.
