该句使用比喻结构将人生与镜子进行类比表达。
Even if you do your best, there will still be people who criticize you; even if you are at your worst, you may still hear praise. Therefore, there is no need to care too much about external judgments, to fall into the gaze of others, or to distort your true self in order to please the world.

Wise people tend to think positively about everything. There are two important states in life: truth and contentment. Understanding truth helps one live clearly; understanding contentment helps one live peacefully. Being obsessed with fame and fortune leads to bondage by them; caring too much about others’ opinions leads to emotional ups and downs. The more desires one has, the more constraints arise; the fewer desires, the greater freedom.
Within emotional attachment lie unspoken and beautiful memories like a fading yet breathtaking story. Once, everything was for you alone. Even if one day the paper filled with emotions becomes weathered by time and words turn yellow, I would still be willing to hold a gentle heart, writing eternity with the pen and permanence with ink, turning our encounter into the most beautiful legend in the world.

婚姻需要慎重对待，离婚同样需要谨慎。如果说结婚是一时冲动犯下的错误，那么离婚更不应轻易因一时不合而草率决定。
聪明的人往往凡事往好处想。人生有两个重要的境界：真实与知足。懂得真实，使人活得清醒；懂得知足，使人活得平和。一味追逐名利，便会被名利所束缚；过于在意他人的评价，就容易患得患失。欲望越多，束缚越深；欲望越少，自由越多。
在眷恋之中，那些无法言说的美好如同倾城往事。曾经只为你停留，即便有一天写满心绪的纸笺被岁月染上沧桑，文字逐渐泛黄，我依然愿意怀抱一份温婉，以笔写天长，以墨写地久，将相遇的故事写成世间最美的传奇。
