While reading these blogs I began to wonder how life would be if we all followed Confucius ideas of life, how different people would act and how our perspective our life would be very different. If you think about his priorities one would understand that the mayor goal of a man is to become a gentleman and be able to follow the way. He would focus on his family and everybody would try to be a trustworthy person which is very respectful and takes great interest in learning. I also believe that women would be treated as inferior to man and they would have to deal as their “gentleman” wanted them to. People would also live a much calmer life in which philosophy is a greater aspect of the daily life.
Today, many people are concerned about their reputation and Confucius would support that, and he would support many more of the values we have now days and the daily life we live. He would of course disagree with many other of our actions and never accept many of our ideals but he would teach us many more and we would be able to mix the different ideals to reach an intermediate point. I also think that people would be less materialistic and poverty would be reduced. Even though Confucius does encourage to look for progression and be ambitious, one would become “wealthier” in other aspects such as in ideas, thoughts, the views of life, how often follows what they say, how often one teaches what he believes and other virtues and ideas.
