先生,不知何许人也,亦不详其姓字;宅边有五柳树,因以为号焉。闲静少言,不慕荣利。好读书,不求甚解;每有会意,便欣然忘食。性嗜酒,家贫,不能常得,亲旧知其如此,或置酒而招之。造饮辄尽,期在必醉。既醉而退,曾不吝情去留。环堵萧然,不蔽风日;短褐穿结,簟瓢屡空,晏如也!常著文章自娱,颇示己志。忘怀得失,以此自终。
赞曰:“黔娄之妻有言:‘不戚戚于贫贱,不汲汲于富贵。’其言兹若人之俦乎?衔觞赋诗,以乐其志,无怀氏之民欤?葛天氏之民欤?”
Sometimes when I come across a nice article or read something beautiful or inspirational on the web, I cannot help wanting to share them with all of my friends. The old way to share them is to send them to each friend. Now with the advent of blogger, it's more convenient to share them in one place--that's why this blog was created. Enjoy!
