How do you see the difference between the traditional ideas of the East and West? How do you see the difference between the traditional ideas of the East and West? In my opinion, the eastern people, of course, as a Chinese people, from small to accept the idea is to the Confucian, led by hundreds of ideas, these historical books warned us that a man should be humble and low-key. Lao Zi said, charity, "meaning, the character of the highest realm of goodness is like water, bring benefit to all things and does not compete with fame and fortune. The character of a man should be like water to do things, such as water freely flowing style of writing, still. The highest level of be like water, can take temporary setbacks. Water is tender, but it is great. This is the Eastern thought, pay attention to compatibility with all students, at least in my understanding is that Chinese. Some Westerners think easterners very strange, lack of confidence, answer flatter others words always use the way of negation, may this was the reason? Western traditional ideas in my opinion is to conquer nature, stress to overcome difficulties, courage, as the climber, to keep climbing, hoping to reach the peak, you can conquer the mountains. I don't really understand this, if you know something, welcome to talk about it.
