yxsodamncharming 1,461 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Patriotic Chinese Kindergarten Kungfu — lyrics & video for ç²¾å¿ æŠ¥å›½ by å± æ´ªçº² https://chinahopelive.net/2013/11/28/patriotic-chinese-kindergarten-kungfu-lyrics-video-for-%E7%B2%BE%E5%BF%A0%E6%8A%A5%E5%9B%BD-by-%E5%B1%A0%E6%B4%AA%E7%BA%B2 A cross-cultural adventure in Qingdao, China. ABOUT A North American couple with a background in Intercultural Studies tries to make a life in Qingdao, China. This is our blog coping mechanism scrapbook. Our 4-year-old goes to an all-Chinese preschool, where I also teach. We’re the only foreigners. The 5 and 6-year-olds do this as a regular exercise routine: It’s a song about complete devotion and loyalty to China, which in English could be “Dedication and Loyalty to the Country†or “Serve the Country with Utmost Loyaltyâ€. The title is a reference to famous historical-mythical General Yue Fei’s tattoo. He was traitorously executed and posthumously has come to epitomize loyalty to China. The Wikipedia article is worth a read, as this song has all kinds of historical/cultural associations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yue_Fei ç²¾å¿ æŠ¥å›½ by å± æ´ªçº² 狼烟起江山北望 The fire beacon rises, look toward the rivers and mountains of the north 龙起å·é©¬é•¿å˜¶å‰‘气如霜 Dragons’ puffs and horses’ neighs are like blows of a frosted sword 心似黄河水茫茫 Hearts as boundless as the water of the Yellow River 二å年纵横间è°èƒ½ç›¸æŠ— Who defies the length and breadth of the past twenty years? æ¨æ¬²ç‹‚é•¿åˆ€æ‰€å‘ Wild hatred where my sword points å¤šå°‘æ‰‹è¶³å¿ é‚埋骨它乡 Countless brothers, loyal souls, bones buried in unfamiliar lands 何惜百æ»æŠ¥å®¶å›½ What regret is it to die a hundred times protecting family and country? å¿å¹æƒœæ›´æ— è¯è¡€æ³ªæ»¡çœ¶ Enduring sighs of regret, speechless, tears of blood fill the eyes 马蹄å—去人北望 Horses’ hooves go south, the people look toward the north 人北望è‰é’黄尘飞扬 Toward the north the grass yellows, dust flying up 我愿守土å¤å¼€ç–† I’m willing to guard this territory and re-claim the land å ‚å ‚ä¸å›½è¦è®©å››æ–¹æ¥è´º Grand China will make all sides bring tribute Some interesting notes on this song here: Many people in the west believe that Chinese are in general motivated by an irrational nationalism cultivated by the communist party to secure its political hold on the country. This is why some of the protests by Chinese nationals overseas have been labeled as “rebirth of the red guardsâ€. Personally, I think this misunderstanding reflects a lack of knowledge about Chinese history, which in the thousand years past have been filled with foreign invasions and civil wars. We Chinese are peace lovers, but our own history has taught us that unification as a country, especially in the face of foreign threats has always been the prerequisite for a peaceful life. This music video is by the singer Tu HongGang, who was trained as a Beijing opera singer, but turned into a pop singer in the late 80’s and early 90’s. The song is entitled ç²¾å¿ æŠ¥å›½, which translates to ‘dedication and loyalty to the country,’ or ‘serve the country with the utmost loyalty.’ The phrase by itself originates from the story of Yue Fei, “a famous Chinese patriot and military general who fought for the Southern Song Dynasty against the Jurchen armies of the Jin Dynasty. Since his political execution by the traitor Qin Hui, Yue Fei has evolved into the standard model of loyalty in Chinese culture.†According to legends, his mother tattooed these four characters across his back before he left home to join the army in 1122. More on his story can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yue_Fei Note the first picture on the right, which shows the statue of Yue Fei, from the Yue Fei Mausoleum in Hangzhou. The four characters on his banner say, Huan Wo He Shan , or “Return my rivers and mountainsâ€. I love the song (and the singer!) very much, I feel it echoes much of the patriotism which Chinese holds as part of our cultural identity. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just have a limited sphere of thinking. While some of these people become narrow-minded after being exposed to harsh realities of life, others just lack education, varied experiences and most importantly – unconditional acceptance and love they deserve. Narrow-mindedness is not a permanent condition. You just need to do an honest self-analysis and start working on your thinking habits, one step at a time. Here is the list of top 10 signs you’re a narrow minded person. 10. You tend to generalize everything:Every human being has the tendency to generalize an opinion. For example, if a handful of people from Italy were unkind to you during your trip to the United States, you may or may not generalize that all Italians are rude, dangerous and obnoxious. A narrow-minded person almost certainly chooses to generalize in such cases. Some common examples are – Everyone in Pakistan is a terrorist, all gold medalist athletes used performance enhancing drugs, all political leaders are corrupt and all government officials take bribes. 9. You’re judgmental:Having pre-conceived notions about people, events and several other things without valid reasons is a common sign of narrow-mindedness. If you judge a person, movie, book, leader, officer or anyone else very quickly, it’s possible your mind has become habitual to ‘presume’ than to analyze and discover. A narrow-minded person tends to see a dozen things the same way he found the first one. 8. You do not discuss your core beliefs with anyone:While some people just like to keep their core beliefs and ideas about life to themselves, there are many others, who keep them from friends, family members and relatives simply because they cannot stand contrary arguments. If you’ve never discussed such things with ‘anyone’ in your life, you’re probably rolling down a narrow lane in your mind, unwilling to ride on a wide highway with others. 7. You are unable to socialize at work or anywhere else:Even if you’re slightly narrow-minded, it’s possible you are incapable of socializing at work, parties or even at home. Introverts too are like that. However, they enjoy listening to others, laugh with people at work and hold no grudges against anyone. On the other hand, a narrow minded person either finds fellow-men and women too stupid or too unworthy to socialize with. 6. You enjoy pin-pointing the shortcomings:A large number of people enjoy pin-pointing wrongs in the society a lot more than they appreciate things that are just as they should be. Even if you consider the last 48 hours of your life, you can easily analyze if you’ve been mostly whining or feeling grateful. If you have been complaining about corruption, public callousness, poverty, crimes etc. 20 times a day, you’ve probably narrowed down your thinking to everything negative in this world. This is one of the easiest signs of narrow-mindedness that you can recognize. 5. You are not open to new ideas:A narrow-minded person may appear conservative, liberal, religious or spiritual on the surface. Deep down, however, such a person lives inside a closed shell, unwilling to expose himself to new opinions even if they’re based on facts and obvious realities. A religious person, for example, may just refuse to accept that his religion is not the ‘best religion’ in the world. 4. You contact your friends only when you are sad: If you’ve a tendency to contact your ‘close’ friends only when you’re depressed or frustrated, chances are you have been paying little or no attention to them. It is possible that you do not seek their company in happy-times. It is not wrong to reach out to people you think you love and trust when you’re physically, mentally or emotionally weak. However, it is certainly a sign of narrow-mindedness if you feel the need to call or meet friends only when you’re not happy. 3. You fail to interact well with a friend once you discover a negative part of his personality:It’s not easy to recognize this tendency, especially when you’re doing self-analysis. The best you can do is to recall some incidents when a friend acted stupid, selfish or childish. If the nature of relationship between the two of you changed after just one incident, chances are you focus more on the negative side of your friend’s personality. 2. You do not like anyone who disagrees with you:If you like everyone to be in perfect agreement with everything you believe in, it is possible you haven’t rationally considered their life experiences. There are very few people in the world who are either 99% selfless or 99% selfish. If you find it hard to stand disagreements, whether at workplace, family life or in personal relationships, you’re almost certainly becoming narrow minded. It’s important that you learn to disagree happily. 1. You’re obsessed with righteousness:Some people like to be right on all occasions. Even if they’re aware of their wrongdoings and blunders, they try to tuck it deep in their hearts and pretend being righteous in front of family members, friends and colleagues. If you cannot recall occasions when you apologized for something, laughed at your blunders with near and dear ones or openly accepted your mistakes, chances are you’ve spoiled your mind! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
