Confucius

Dear Readers,
Stories have been going around about a man who has lived through poverty, and like all of us, the wars. He was known as Confucius. He died recently, and lived from 551-479 BCE. He's taught the people of China about "goodness." He believed that if the rulers are good, everyone will be good. The government didn't like that he had been expressing his thoughts to people, because they don't believe in it. One day, another dynasty will come along and use his preachings for their society.
