Everyone knows Confucius(孔子). He is a great thinker in Chinese history. Confucius lives for 73 years. He lives longer than most other people at his age. He has a long life and has a set of ways to keep good health.
First of all, he has a big heart and he opens it up to everyone. His dream is that the old live an easy life, friends believe in him and the young think of him. He has a simple life. He always says, “People can eat coarse grains(粗粮), and drink cold water, and bend arms as a pillow(枕头).” He thinks it’s wrong to get wealth in special ways.
Secondly, Confucius is very careful about his eating because he thinks it’s good for his mind and body. He never eats food that becomes bad. He never speaks while eating or sleeping.
Lastly, he likes music and sports. He also likes to travel around the world. He is strict with himself. One of his famous sayings is, “Don’t do to others what you don’t want others do to you.”
