A child lied and said "the Wolf is coming" to deceive the villagers, the first time the villagers believed, the second time also believed, the third time the Wolf really came, no one believed the lying child.

Eventually, the child was eaten by a Wolf.

This story, talking about a "letter" problem.

Today, let's talk about the word "letter".

The letter word is separated out, that is, people and words, and there is a sentence called "people's words are letters."

It means that what people say must be seriously performed, so that a person with integrity.

The meaning of this word since ancient times is so, which shows how much the ancients attach importance to credit.

A man cannot stand by his words without faith.

Credit occupies a great position in people's hearts, a person is not good, depends on whether he has good faith, can be trustworthy.

Often watch the news to know that from time to time there will be some rich people, listed as faithless list, but there are always some poor people, even if life is difficult, also keep their promises.

When the old man Hua Shuzeng just retired, he opened a flour factory, the business was very prosperous, and many villagers saved their surplus grain to him there.

However, before long, the old man encountered a scam, the flour factory was forced to close down, and he was also faced with more than 200,000 arrears owed to the villagers.

"I was cheated, but I can't apologize to my fellow villagers," he said to hundreds of villagers asking for money they owed and food they owed.

After many years, in order to pay off debts, wind and rain, together with his son, little by little to repay the debt owed to the villagers.

Fortunately, the house of the old man was expropriated and rebuilt, and received more than 100,000 yuan in compensation.

The old man immediately took the money to repay the debt. In the meantime, some villagers told him: "You can return it later."

The old man said: "anything can be late, integrity is not late."

Confucius cloud: "People without faith, do not know it can also."

If a person has no credit and does not keep his word, I do not know what else he can do.

In fact, in our lives, friends, affairs, are adhering to a "letter" word.

Such as doing business, pay attention to integrity to win the world; Make friends, pay attention to not treasure gold and jade, and loyalty as treasure.

"Letter" runs through our whole life, from small to large must be trustworthy; It runs through the whole society, talking about the integrity between people.

People's wealth may be different, but there is no difference in credit, everyone in the eyes of others, there is an equal amount of "trust", every time a lie, broken faith, will be deducted part of the "trust".

When the quota is zero, he will not be enough to be trusted.

It is difficult to keep credit; Lost credit to replace, more difficult.

Credit is a measure of a person's standard, but also determines the height of character.

May you keep your word after many years.

If ever faithless, future faithless; If you have not broken your promise, persevere.
