But what is the definition of good company?
但是益友的定义是什么呢?
More than two thousand five hundred years ago, Confucius taught his pupils to make friends with those who were honest, sincere and had gained wisdom through education and experience.
两千五百多年以前,孔夫子教导自己的门生要结交诚实、真挚并通过教育及经历获得智慧的朋友。
His principle is still suitable for our modern society. Good companions will advise you, comfort you and support you whenever you are in need.
他讲的道理仍适用于我们的现代社会。益友会在你有困难时规劝你、安慰你并支持你。
In short, good company matures you and inspires you to continue advancing through life.
简言之,益友使你的思想成熟并能激励你在一生中不断进步。
