The Man - Wu Kang
Wu Kang was a shiftless fellow who changed apprenticeships all the time. One day he decided that he wanted to be an immortal. Wu Kang then went to live in the mountains where he importuned an immortal to teach him. First the immortal taught him about the herbs used to cure sickness, but after three days his characteristic restlessness returned and he asked the immortal to teach him something else. So the immortal to teach him chess, but after a short while Wu Kang's enthusiasm again waned. Then Wu Kang was given the books of immortality to study. Of course, Wu Kang became bored within a few days, and asked if they could travel to some new and exciting place. Angered with Wu Kang's impatience, the master banished Wu Kang to the Moon Palace telling him that he must cut down a huge cassia tree before he could return to earth. Though Wu Kang chopped day and night, the magical tree restored itself with each blow, and thus he is up there chopping still.
The Hare - Jade Rabbit
In this legend, three fairy sages transformed themselves into pitiful old men and begged for something to eat from a fox, a monkey and a rabbit. The fox and the monkey both had food to give to the old men, but the rabbit, empty-handed, offered his own flesh instead, jumping into a blazing fire to cook himself. The sages were so touched by the rabbit's sacrifice that they let him live in the Moon Palace where he became the "Jade Rabbit."
The Cake - Moon Cake
During the Yuan dynasty (A.D.1280-1368) China was ruled by the Mongolian people. Leaders from the preceding Sung dynasty (A.D.960-1280) were unhappy at submitting to foreign rule, and set how to coordinate the rebellion without it being discovered. The leaders of the rebellion, knowing that the Moon Festival was drawing near, ordered the making of special cakes. Backed into each moon cake was a message with the outline of the attack. On the night of the Moon Festival, the rebels successfully attacked and overthrew the government. What followed was the establishment of the Ming dynasty (A.D. 1368-1644). Today, moon cakes are eaten to commemorate this legend.

   Soul and happiness 世界上最漫长的路,不是天涯海角，最短的路，也不是近在咫尺，而是心路，它可以超越生命的界定，也可以落后于生命的延伸。无论是甜蜜的、苦涩的、愉悦的，还是凄楚的，都浓缩着人类生命的真谛！
如果一个人心中充满阳光，一切恶意的思想自然会烟消云散，因为这许许多多的阴暗面，并不能存在爱的阳光里；如果心灵中充满着善良、高尚、友爱、诚实、和谐，那么，一切不良的思想就会消失。乐观会驱逐悲观，希望会驱逐失望，快乐会驱逐沮丧，这是亘古不变的真理。
你的爱好就是你的方向，你的兴趣就是你的资本，你的性情就是你的命运。一般而言，苦与乐全凭自己判断。要想拥有喜悦的心情，必须 具有一种平和的心态。一个性格平和的人，便是一个心地善良、善于宽容体贴他人的人，便是一位具有强大克制力和忍耐力的人。性格平和的人不仅能使自己幸福而且能给他人带来幸福。
对生活充满希望的人，总能乐观地面对现实。对他们而言，根本就不存在什么伤心欲绝的痛苦，因为他们即便在灾难和痛苦之中也能找到心灵的慰藉，他们相信黑暗终将过去，光明即将来临。尽管乌云有时遮住太阳，但太阳的光芒终究会照耀着大地；对生活充满阳光的人，他的眼中时刻闪烁着愉快的光芒，总显得欢快、豁达、朝气蓬勃。当然，他们偶尔也会有精神痛苦、心烦意燥的时候，但他们会以一颗平和的心去对待，没有忧伤，更不会为此浪费自己的精力，从而成就一个快乐人生！
