Most people live being controlled by external forces or having their hearts tainted by external things, becoming accomplices to an ugly reality. One should hold fast to the most beautiful parts of their heart and face all the world's evils with the most positive attitude.
If a benefactor is in difficulty, even if one's ability is limited, one should do their utmost to show through action that they will stand by them through thick and thin. If a benefactor gives without expecting anything in return, we should keep that kindness in our hearts, rather than letting it vanish like writing in the sand.
Those who cannot control their tongues not only hurt others but also invite trouble. Prudence in speech is not about staying silent, but about speaking when one should and remaining silent when one shouldn't. When advising others, if you disregard their self-respect, even the best words will be useless.
Calmness and resilience are gradually cultivated through the constant suppression of one's own pain.
When one's mood is at its worst, one should know how to control their emotions, otherwise, they will be controlled by them.
