True friendship cannot be intimidated, distanced, or betrayed by any wind of slander, any bolt of disaster, any fog of schemes, or any frost of poverty. You are as resilient as mountain rock and as continuous as flowing water.
Live without the agony of worry or the greed of desire. As long as you remain cheerful and open-minded, a sunny day will always dwell in your heart. Guard your contentment and build your defenses. Embrace nature in all things: remain calm in adversity, find peace in success, and remain composed in failure. Twistings are inevitable; Only through vicissitudes do we find enlightenment.
During the high tide of hormones, love is a utopia, a metaphysical realm where moonlight, sunsets, and starlight make one blind to even the thickest dust. But when the tide recedes, life becomes an earthly kingdom, a mundane reality of daily survival.
A fish cannot muddy the ocean, mist cannot crush a mountain, thunder cannot topple a hill, and a fan cannot disperse the fog. No matter how long a deer's neck is, it cannot grow higher than its head; no matter how long one's toes are, they cannot exceed the sole of the foot. Human action can never outpace thought! Some people you know for a lifetime yet ignore, while others, seen for a mere moment, influence your entire life. Some are warmly happy for you but are neglected, while others bring brief joy but leave a lasting chain of thoughts.
It is not physical strength or wealth that brings happiness, but integrity and justice.
Many people currently exhibit a state of blind consumption. This is reflected in several ways: failing to compare prices and thus having no grasp of quality; ignoring beneficial discounts thinking they save little; and buying impulsively based on sales pitch rather than need.
