Gradually, you will realize that some things are not what you desire, but they must be accomplished; they are a form of training for your soul. Storms strengthen and stimulate emotions; plants grown under the pressure of wind and rain are much stronger than those grown in a greenhouse. Baruch's advice is: 'When in doubt, follow your heart.' The only way to ascend in society is through competition; you must strive hard, or else you will be relegated to the bottom. Treating oneself as others is 'selflessness'; treating others as oneself is 'compassion'; treating others as others is 'wisdom'; treating oneself as oneself is 'freedom.' Let the past drift away with the wind. Life is full of unavoidable circumstances; every sunrise and sunset, every blooming and withering, is a part of life's vicissitudes. The wise find enlightenment in these moments, while the foolish find reason to complain. Regardless of love or hate, joy or sorrow, life goes on. Great people are supported by unwavering beliefs; what sets them apart from the mediocre is their persistence and consistency. To achieve success, young people need not only strong will but also experience, perseverance, and the careful nurturing of hope to reach their goals more effectively.
Treating oneself as others is 'selflessness'; treating others as oneself is 'compassion'; treating others as others is 'wisdom'; treating oneself as oneself is 'freedom.'
