Confucious: 551 B.C.-479 B.C. -

Dear Blog,

Its 479 B.C and Confucius (Kong Fuzi) has just passed away. He was an important wandering teacher who had developed the idea of Goodness. He used it to hold society together and he always said that in order for the people to stay in harmony, the ruler has to be a role model. If the ruler is good, the people will follow. He also taught us that family is the foundation of society.  He kept the people together by spreading his teachings  and blending his ideas with traditional Chinese ideas.
