They explained every simple character patiently and made me understand the meaning of each character. My grandfather used to teach Chinese, and he often guided me to write the Chinese character \"he\" which means \"harmony (和谐)\" in English.
When I was a little older, I often met some difficulties in my life. At home, I often disagreed with my sisters. At school, I sometimes argued with my classmates. When these things happened, I was asked to think about the word \"he\" on paper. It shows that peace and harmony are the most valuable things for our Chinese nation. And we should value relationships with others. We should choose, to be kind, polite and honest to families and friends to build harmonious family and social relationships.
Now I understand the Chinese character \"he\" is one of the most important parts of traditional culture. We should have it in our hearts. Harmony is the value that influences the Chinese people's psychology (心理), thinking style and behavior.
Our most valuable ideas and culture are behind simple characters. They not only teach us how to be a good person but also teach us how to live peacefully with others.
