A gentleman is upright and open-hearted, free from worry and fear, possessing a broad and magnanimous mind. A petty person, however, is constantly plagued by gain and loss, consumed by calculations and self-inflicted troubles, always fearing they are being plotted against, leading to a restless soul.
Between people, there is a distance that is both the furthest and the closest.
I once believed the end of the world would be a vast sea of flowers where I could wander, eyes closed in fragrance, dancing at will, and making eternal vows in my solitude. I thought I was merely a pioneer of the soul, drifting through a continuous search. As time passed, I realized that many things I never even considered would haunt me in the depths of the night. It is not that I cannot let go, but that I have seen through it all: the fleeting prosperity has passed me by, while the lonely simplicity has stayed by my side. I will capture the shadows of passing years, cherish every fragrant moment, and let a faint smile play a warm melody through the ordinary years.
In life, many things remain unspoken. Some joys may not be understood by others; some sorrows may not be felt by others. Some exhaustion weighs on the body and the heart; some tears hang on the face but wound the soul; some pains leave no visible scars but ache deep within the heart. Love follows destiny—will it favor us? Even when souls are connected, there are moments of speechless silence. Sounds can be weary, forms can be bitter, and wounds can be painful. It turns out that invisible scars hurt the most, and unshed tears are the coldest.
Open your palms to the sky: the sunlight in your palms is my gentle smile when I think of you; the raindrops in your palms are the tears that fall when I miss you.
Those who do evil suffer the most from their own actions. Much like a bee that stings a person, it harms itself even more deeply, for it loses its sting and its strength.
Opportunity is not absolutely fair, but it always favors those who are prepared.
