The present is a limited edition. Today's gains and losses, joys and sorrows, will not be the same tomorrow. What we can do is to make every minute of the present happy and meaningful, without needing to go against our own will by watching the eyes of others and dressing up as a self that is no longer us. The outside world does not connect with you much; there is no need to tire yourself out. Whether envisioning the future or recalling the scars of the past, the only thing that will accompany you forever is destined to be your own shadow.
A kind heart is naturally beautiful; a direct heart is sincere; a compassionate heart is gentle; and a pure heart is solemn. Amidst the thousand splendors, in a mere blink of an eye, a century later, all becomes but a handful of sand. Using time as a pen, sow beauty in the tunnel of years; greet every sunrise with joy, sense every sunset with mindfulness, listen with your heart, shake off the dust of time, and return to the essence of life with a pure heart, treating everything in life with gratitude.
Where there is a will, there is a way. Having great ambitions provides the drive to move forward. Set high standards and strict requirements for yourself, whether in studies or in your future work. Do not be easily overwhelmed by difficulties, but persist unwaveringly toward your goals. By remaining steadfast and unswerving, you will win the favor of fortune and walk the path to success.
Pushkin said, "If life deceives you, do not be melancholy, and do not be indignant! When things do not go your way, restrain yourself for a while; believe me, the happy days will come." How far is happiness from us? Actually, happiness is hidden in every small thing in our lives. Treat your inner self well; you can cause yourself pain, but you can also make yourself happy, because you are the master of your own life.
To conquer the world, one must first conquer oneself. "Knowing what to do and what not to do" is the prerequisite for achieving greatness. Gorky said, "Even a little self-restraint can make a person powerful." One should strive to overcome all bad habits.
