 Enlighten
book-Liu Yong
Liu Yong once said:
"Although I think I'm an expert on life, I do not dare to say I'm an educator.
Every person is ordinary; so how can I can educate others? I am only an ordinary
person who watches the world from an ordinary angle. I only directly state my
true feelings from my heart¡"
But in any event, it has to be said that it was from the Liu Yong where
people first had the concept of the "enlightening book," which also became a new
concept for the publication market.
By the Light of Fireflies (Ying Chuang Xiao Yu), Surmount Oneself, The truth
of Life (Ren Sheng de Zhen Xiang)...These booklets with exquisite and short
essays, inspired an impassioned resonance in young students, as the books'
contents, rather than being merely musings on life, focus specifically on how to
conduct oneself in society.
