The only problem unconsciously assumed by all Chinese philosophers to be of any importance is :How shall we enjoy life, and who can enjoy life?No perfectionism,no straining after the unattainable, no postulating of the unknowable; but taking poor ,motal human nature as it is ,how shall we organize our life so that we can work peacefully,endure nobly and live happily.

Who are we ?that is the first question.It is a question almost impossible to answer.But we all agree that the busy self occupied in our daily activities is not quite the real self .We are quite sure we have lost sth. in the mere pursuit of living.

When we watch a person running about looking for sth.in a field,the wise man can set a puzzle for all the spectators to solve:What has person lost?Someone thinks it is watch;

another thinks it is adiamond brooch;and other will essay other guesses.After all the guesses have failed, the wise man who really doen't know what the person is seeking after ,tells the company:I will tell you .He has lost breath .And no one can deny that he is right. So we often forget our true self inthe pursuit of a mantis which again forget its own danger in pursuit of another. NOTE: COPPIED FROM READING MATERIAL.

一切中国的哲学家在不知不觉中认为先吃螃蟹的问题是：我们要怎样享受人生？谁会享受人生？我们不追求十全十美的理想，我们寻找那些得不到的东西；我们的认识是不圆满的，会死的人类的本性，那么我们怎样调整我们的人生，使我们可以平和地工作着，旷达地忍耐着，幸福地生活着呢？

我们是谁呢？这是个问题。这个问题几乎是无法答复的。可是我们都承认在我们日常活动中那么忙碌的自我，并不完全是真正的自我；我们相信我们在生活的追求中已经失掉了一些东西。当我们看见一个人在一片田野里跑来跑去在寻找东西时，智者出一个难题给旁观者去回答：那个人失掉了什么呢？有的猜一只表；有的猜一颗钻石胸针；其他的人则作其他的猜测。智者也不知道那个人在找何物；当大家猜不对的时侯，他对大家说：“我告诉你们吧。他失掉了一些气息了。”没有人否认他说的话是对的。所以我们在生活的追求中常常忘掉了真正的自我，像庄子在一个美妙的譬喻里讲的那只鸟那样，为了要捕捉一只螳螂而忘掉了自身的危险，而那只螳螂又为了要捕捉一只蝉而忘掉自身的危险。
