If the breeze has feelings, then the bright moon can reflect them; if falling flowers have emotions, then the flowing water can understand. What cannot be erased is the lingering solitude; what cannot be untangled is the entwined past; what cannot be severed is the intertwined longing. If a beauty has a dream, a gentleman can understand it; if a gentleman has words, a beauty can listen. When all splendor fades, it ultimately turns into mist and rain.
Where there is ambition, success follows. Having great aspirations brings the motivation to move forward and demands higher standards of oneself. Whether in study or future work, one maintains strict requirements. Facing difficulties, one will not be easily defeated, persisting steadily toward goals with unwavering determination, and thus attracting fortune and stepping onto the path to success.
Maintaining innocence is crucial. Never lose an open heart and childlike enthusiasm, and limitless possibilities will naturally arise. Truth is often ambiguous, while lies are quickly understood. The best approach is to rely on experience while retaining a sense of wonder. Miracles exist in everything; one only needs to observe with attention.
Life often leaves us speechless. Smiling does not always mean happiness, it may be resignation; crying does not always mean tears, it may be release; pain does not always mean injury, it may be a stir of the heart. Walking a path, one longs to see a landscape because it has left a deep impression; thinking of someone may bring tears because they have become part of life; singing a song may lead to silence because it is hard to let go. Through life’s storms, remain serene in heart.
Life is such a vast river. What we should do is joyfully drift along it, going with the flow, rather than struggling to make the river flow according to our desires. One cannot reach a joyful destination through a journey devoid of joy.
