To fully appreciate Proverb 3, we begin by reflecting on our perspectives about life?
Life's Three Perspectives - 人生三观
Worldview - 世界观/宇宙观
Life Perspective - 人生观
Value System - 价值观
- What are the differences we have with others? 什么是 三观不同
Quotes from Maugham: "The Moon and Sixpence" - 毛姆: 《月亮与六便士》
1. You revere God's laws, while he worships authority; this is a difference in worldview.
你敬畏天理, 他崇拜权威; 这是世界观不同。2 You strive for an ideal life, he strives to be superior to others; this is a difference in life perspective." 你努力是为了理想的生活, 他努力是为了做人上人; 这是人生观不同。"
3 You stand on the side of conscience, he stands on the side of the winners; this is a difference in values.你站在良知一边, 他站在赢者一边; 这是价值观不同。
