Answer

Dear Jim,

I’m glad to hear that you are interested in Chinese culture.

There are many famous sayings that teach people how to get along with others. The one you asked is one of the most. It means don’t impose on others what you don’t like or can’t do. It is teaching us the principles of dealing with others. For example, During the current epidemic, we all need to wear masks and keep a social distance so as not to affect others. That’s what it says.

It seems that you already know a lot about Chinese language and culture. Come on and keep in touch!

Yours,

Li Hua
