The connection between water culture and Chinese poetry and poems, from which the connotation of how water is expressed

"Goodness is like water" is a phrase from Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, which means that "good morals are like water", with a long history and a continuous flow. The meaning is that "good morality is like water", which has a long history. Chewing the philosopher's "four words" of truth, there is a taste: water, the original has so many excellent character!

One said that the guardian. Water is the source of all things, on the merits of when a thousand words of praise, monuments. But it does not think, not only do not publicize, but "and its light, with its dust", where low to where the flow, where the puddle where to gather, and even the more profound and quiet. Such tranquility and optimism, overflowing with modest gentleman's style, taste, connotation, realm, in the low-key in the noble.

Two said that unity. Water cohesion is very strong, once fused together, shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, a direction, a pace, honor and disgrace and ****, life and death, there is no force can make them apart, so Li Bai has "draw the knife to break the water more water" lament. Because of its unity and unity of mind, the will of the people, the power is incomparable. Converge into the river and the sea, vast, sweeping the present and cleansing the past; riding the wind will rise waves, and the combination of the land, is part of the land; and the combination of life, is part of the life. The beauty of harmony is unspeakable.

Third, endurance. Water to soft, but soft and bone, persistent faith in the relentless pursuit of respect. You see that the nine curves of the Yellow River, how many barriers, how many temptations, even if the mountains stacked, a hundred turns, east into the sea of the will has not had a wavering, majestic and heroic footsteps has not had a moment to stop; you see that the wave hit the reef, even if it is shattered and will never retreat, a wave of waves to go forward and backward, a wave of waves to fight, the reef will eventually hit a hundred holes and thousands of holes; you see that the cliff drip, day after day, year after year, biting the target, not impatient, millions of dollars. The goal, not impatient, millions of times "ticking", hard to chisel a hole in the stubborn stone. It is really "the world's most soft, galloping the world's most hard".

Fourth, the great. "The sea, tolerance is great". Water is the most loving, the most inclusive, access to the world, dedication and do not want to return. Selfless love is true love, mountain green, feeding flowers and flowers, strong education Harvest Harvest. Selfless love is the most love, ferry masts and oars, feed the green shad, chub and carp, water; set up the "Lotus Pond Moonlight", the construction of the Dongting scenic spot, the water exhaustive efforts. Selfless love is great love, look up to the sky, a drop of water to see the sun, but never compete with the spring; overlooking the earth, a trickle of water to moisturize everything, but only see things and not see the water. Because of generosity so sublime, because of dedication so beautiful, do not want to ask for but give back to the rich, should be the sentence "Fu only do not compete, so no one can compete with" the famous saying.

Five said flexible. Not stick to, not dull, not paranoid, sometimes delicate, sometimes rough, sometimes charming, sometimes unrestrained. "From the heart and not over the rules", a high degree of flexibility is the characteristics of water. Change from time to time, night dewdrops, morning mist, sunny steam auspicious, Yin Phi neon dress, summer for the rain, winter for the snow, and angry, condensed into ice. Water displays thousands of phenomena. Change due to the situation, soothing for the stream, low appeal singing; steep for the waterfall, the tiger whistling dragon. The water is energized by the situation. Changes due to equipment, when the round is round, when the square is square, straight as a carving line, the curve can be coiled dragons, so "the water is not always shaped". Because of the change and movement, because of the movement and live, because of the live and into the water will have an infinite charm.

Six said transparent. Only its crystal clear, only to view the fish play shallow water, the moon reflecting the deep pool; only its original color clean, natural, no artifice, no deception, go to the flashy, not to be fake, can not be faked; even if hibernation underground thousands of feet, is still clear and pure. "Clear water out of hibiscus, natural to carve and decorate". Like water, bright and clear, jade clean and ice clear, heart full of sunshine, the shadow of nature far away.

Seven said fair. Water does not Division bias, no matter how high or low, near or far, close or distant, regardless of whether placed in a porcelain bowl or placed in a gold bowl, are treated equally, "a bowl of water end flat", called "level". What's more, crooked water is not crooked, things oblique water is not oblique, called "high level". If the ditch, the water will run roaring, this is the "unevenness of the sound".

The good qualities of water are worth celebrating and learning. Each of us should be water as a mirror, often look at the world of good and evil beauty and ugliness; more should be water as a ruler, and often measure the length of the loss, and constantly cultivate their own character, so that it is more perfect.
