Period 6 Chinese Sayings by Jennalee Kwezi https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y Made with an open mind en-us 2016-09-20 12:00:14 UTC 2025-11-25 16:56:27 UTC hello@padlet.com Aamani Pillutla- https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125200545 "One moment of patience may ward off great disaster, one moment of impatience may ruin a whole life."

My interpretation of this saying is that patience is the greatest virtue of all. Related to the saying 'good things come to those who wait', what I understood from this saying was that if you are patient and determined, you will do well in life. If you rush and are impatient, you could end up ruining everything for yourself and possibly others.]]> 2016-09-20 18:28:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125200545 Jayla Ojumah https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125201647 "He who is really kind can never be unhappy; He who is really wise can never be confused; He who is really brave is never afraid."- Confucius

I think the quote is saying, powerful qualities like wisdom, kindness, and braveness are qualities that one can never lose.]]> 2016-09-20 18:31:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125201647 Helena Johnson https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125201841 "I have bought bread and I have been given Red roses: How happy am I to hold both in my hands!"

I think that this person is saying that he his grateful to be able to have both the bread and the flowers. I think that this is significant because maybe at this time you could only afford 1 thing, but now, the person is able to buy many things. He is more fortunate than he was at another time. ]]> 2016-09-20 18:31:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125201841 Arnold Bahati https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125202042
"The greatest revelation is stillness"

revelation is "the divine or supernatural disclosure to humans of something relating to human existence or the world."
From this  definition of the word revelation i can tell that this quote tells that to know yourself, to know the reason behind existence is to be still. To be still translates to being patient. so to have a reason we need to be patient

My interpretation of this quote is that a person cannot always be happy and have good things happen to them all of the time. Bad experiences are inevitable, but they don't last forever just like good experiences are temporary as well.]]> 2016-09-20 18:32:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125202332 Conley Strange https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125202585 "Not forever can one enjoy stillness and peace. But misfortune and destruction are not final. When the grass has been burnt by the fire of the steppe, it will grow anew in  summer." 
Be persistent. Whenever something good or bad happens, keep on going and pursue to achieve your goals.

This quote is saying that no man can be continuously happy for an extended period of time. ]]> 2016-09-20 18:33:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125202907 Cesar Garcia https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203073 "That the birds of worry and care fly above your head, this you cannot change, but that they build nests in your hair, this you can prevent."
My interpretation of this saying is that dont let people take you over, cut the snakes off.]]> 2016-09-20 18:34:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203073 Mauricio Flores https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203159 That the birds of worry and care fly above your head, this you cannot change, but that they build nests in your hair, this you can prevent.

My interpretation of the quote is You can't prevent problems that happen in your everyday life but, you can prevent other problems building on you

Road traveled by many,
And when evening came
It was grey and dusty
Like the road.
Thereupon I said unto my soul:
This is thy parable,
O soul, when thou
Endurest patiently the
Market and the
Incidents of the market"

My interpretation of this quote is, the carpet has become old and dusty. This kind of symbolizes the road hence why he said "Like the road". The market is busy and crowded which symbolizes life, because life is full of people and crowds. When life gives you a dusty and grey path, be patient.]]> 2016-09-20 18:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203184 Valeria https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203237 "Man has Three ways of acting wisely: Firstly on Meditation, This is the noblest; secondly, on Imitation, this is the easiest; and thirdly, on Experience: This is the bitterest.

Man has different ways of acting, some ways are the easiest and noblest. Others are bitter and neutral?

This means that when you see a good and kind hearted person then you should try to be like them and when you see a bad person, you should take a good look at yourself and make sure that you are not like them]]> 2016-09-20 18:34:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203302 Alexya Martinez https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203414 " In the sea of life,
 In the sea of death
 My soul, tired
In both, seeks
The mountain
From which the waters
Have receded."

I think this means tired and weary people or souls are searching for a mountain where the waters move away. I think those people or souls are seeking salvation.

Short the midday, bitter long the nights! Why then do you not grasp the lamp, seeking out for yourself the short-lived joys, why not today? Why will you wait year after year?"

Always live to your potential, do not limit yourself of the things you can accomplish.

Happiness is fleeting and rarely comes in large quantities; appreciate it.]]> 2016-09-20 18:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203496 Jamal Portier  https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203566 "Kindness in words Creates confidence, Kindness in thinking Creates profoundness, Kindness in giving Creates LOVE."

When you speak kindly towards others, it builds confidence in those you are speaking towards and yourself. Having kind thoughts creates the ability to become more wise. Giving to others out of the kindness of your heart creates the ability for you to love others and shows that you do love. ]]> 2016-09-20 18:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203566 Victoria V. https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203578 "Thousands upon thousands of rivers
flow into the sea, 
But the sea is
never full -
And if man could
turn stone into gold, 
still would his heart
never be contented."
No matter if you have everything in the world you still want more. Man always strive for more even though they might have everything they need. ]]> 2016-09-20 18:35:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203578 Jourdan Golding https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203579 Kindness in words
creates confidence,
Kindness in thinking
creates profoundness,
Kindness in giving creates love.

In my own words I would say that this is saying that the kindness we share rubs off on the people that we are kind to. ]]> 2016-09-20 18:35:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203579 Emily Criswell  https://padlet.com/mrskwezi/pwm5tnyzjq1y/wish/125203716 " One moment  of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience   may ruin a whole life. "
Good things come to those who wait 

Basically if you be patience then you don't have to worry about disaster but if you have any second of impatience then it can possibly ruin your life.
