What's in a #Chinese character?

Stories. Take the character, 忍 pronounced rěn in #Mandarin. In English, you could say it means restraint, persevere, endure.

The character shows a knife cutting into a heart, and blood—creating a #visual idea of enduring hardships or difficulties.

What is the 668 for?

In #Chinese, numbers have more meanings that just a number. That's because when spoken, may sound like other things.

6 is 六 （liù) and sounds like 路 (lù) "road."

8 is 八 (bā) sounds like 发 (fā) “get rich."

So, 668 means like—many roads to get rich, many roads to success, or all roads lead to riches or #success. 💖

When I read, I read in Chinese. It's fascinating to view the world through the lens of a culture with 7000 years of recorded history—much of which was oral history prior to the writing system. If that interests you, follow me. ☯️
