What is the jade culture in modern life?

There is a story about the connotation of jade culture. A China track and field athlete is going to take part in an international competition, leaving the country and going back to his hometown to say goodbye to his mother. Their mother is a typical rural woman. When she learned that her daughter was going abroad to take part in the competition, she took out a cloth bag from the cupboard. This piece of cloth was wrapped in three layers, and my mother opened it layer by layer, finally revealing a piece of Yu Pei, a piece of jade with a very ancient color. Mother solemnly handed this jade to her daughter, saying that she would take part in the competition, so put it on. This is a family heirloom left by your grandfather. My daughter wore this treasure jade to participate in the competition abroad and achieved good results. After returning home, a reporter interviewed her and asked her why she had achieved such good results. She showed this piece of Yu Pei to her watch and said, "This is one of my motives." . There is nothing mysterious about this story. It is not superstition, but tells the connection between jade culture and sports with a simple truth. First, jade is the carrier of faith, expectation and hope, and embodies the mother's blessing to her daughter. Second, jade is the embodiment of thought, quality and virtue. When the athlete wears it to participate in the competition, it will naturally generate internal motivation. Thirdly, dignified and gentle jade will make athletes feel a kind of peace psychologically and treat the process and result of the competition with a normal heart.

Jade culture, as one of the contents of "People's Olympics", will let people all over the world know more about China and Beijing by hosting the Olympic Games. We have reason to believe that the spread of Chinese jade culture will further promote the exchange between China's humanities and excellent cultures of other countries, and will carry forward the kindness, gentleness, honesty and trustworthiness of jade culture and the spirit of Olympic unity, friendship and peace.
