Poet, philosopher, scientist and buinessman

Read this in a book and find it meaningful.

我曾经看过一则文学寓言， 当混浊初开的时候，世界上只有四种人，也就是诗人，哲学家，科学家和商人。

诗人感叹地说：“ 这个世界正是太美了！”
哲学家讲：“上帝为什么要创造这个世界呢”
科学家想：“这个世界到底是怎么造的”
商人则说：“我真希望能拥有这一切。”

接着诗人作了一首诗，
哲学家看了讲：“我终于知道上帝为什么要创造万物了！”
科学家看了说：“ 这真是一首严谨的作品！”
商人则高兴地讲：”这首诗如果印成书出版该多好！”

由这个故事可以知道：
同一件事给予每个人的感觉是大不相同的，而人类的文化不也就靠着他们的创造，思想，分析，推展而日益进步吗

When this world just been created, there are only 4 types of people. The poet, philosopher, scientist and businessman.

Poet:" This world is really beautiful!"
Philosopher:" Why God create this world?"
Scientist:" How this world is being created?"
Businessman:" I wish I can own all of this."

After that, the poet wrote a poem. After reading the poem,
Philosopher said:" Finally I understand why God create all this!"
Scientist:"The structure of this poem is really neat."
Businessman:" How great if this poem can be published as book!"

From this story, we can know that although is the same thing, however it gives different feelings to different people. Therefore, isn't culture of human is improving due to human creation, thinking, analysis and publicity ?

This thing happen everyday in our life, because everyone has different character in their life. Sometime, we should think from different angle of views. Everything has their pro and con.
