The clouds in the sky are unpredictable(白衣蒼狗)
There was a famous poet during the Tang
Dynasty in China, and he was one of the greatest poets in China. His name is
(Du Fu).
He wrote a poem, and the general idea of
the poem is as follows.
Look at the clouds in the sky, at the
moment it looks like a white dress, but after a while it becomes like a gray
dog.
From ancient times to the present, there
are many people in this world, and everyone's fate is different, and all kinds
of things we can't think of will happen.
There is a person whose name is (Wang
Jiyou).
His character is very good, and he reads
diligently every day.
His knowledge is very rich, so many people
will come to learn from him.
He is poor and old, and his job is to sell
shoes.
His wife looked down on him and divorced
him.
There is a senior government official named
(Li Mian).
(Li Mian) is his good friend.
(Li Mian) admired his character and
knowledge very much, so he treated him very well and respected him very much.
(Li Mian) has a smooth career and was
promoted to more important positions, but (Wang Jiyou) is still poor.
Both of them are outstanding talents,
although they have had such different life experiences so far.
(Li Mian) could use his talents to serve
the Tang Dynasty, but (Wang Jiyou) was ignored.
If the two of them lived in the age of wise kings long ago, both of them should have been assigned important positions.
The meaning of this idiom is to describe
the fickle world.
Dear friend, how do you feel or think after
hearing this story.
Do you envy others and feel that they are
luckier than you? What are your criteria for making friends?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains
白衣蒼狗(The clouds in the sky are
unpredictable)
中國的唐王朝時代有一個著名的詩人，他是中國幾位最偉大的詩人之一。他的名字是(杜甫)。
他寫過一首詩，這首詩的大意如下。
你看天上的雲啊，此刻像是一件潔白的衣裳，但過了一會就變成像是一條灰色的狗。
從古至今，這世界上有許多的人，每個人的命運都各不相同，各種我們想不到的事情都會發生。
有一個人，他的名字叫做(王季友)。
他的品德很好，他每天都很勤勉的讀書。
他的學問很豐富，所以有很多人都會來跟他學習。
他又窮又老，他的職業是賣鞋子。
他的妻子瞧不起他所以與他離婚。
有一個政府高級官員名字叫做(李勉)。
(李勉)是他的好朋友。
(李勉)很敬佩他的品德與學問，所以對他很好而且很敬重他。
(李勉)的仕途很順利並且晉陞到更重要的職位，但是(王季友)仍然貧困。
他們兩個人都是傑出的人才，他們雖然到目前如此的人生際遇如此不同，。
(李勉)可以發揮自已的才能為唐王朝服務，(王季友)卻被忽視。
如果他們兩個人生活在很久以前那個有著賢明的國王的年代，他們兩個人應該都會被指派擔任重要的職務吧。
這句成語的意思是形容世事變幻無常。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。
