If you dare not ask life questions, life will answer you with periods. Patience is one of the greatest human virtues. The consequence of being unable to endure is often the need for even longer endurance. To learn patience is to learn how to avoid foolishness and to avoid actions that bring momentary pleasure but lifelong regret. As long as we can control our anger and maintain a dignified composure, we shall be invincible. There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what you want, and the other is getting what you do not want. Success in every task requires the diligence to see it through to the end. What makes you stronger is not persistence, but letting go; what makes you more detached is not gaining, but losing; what allows you to start anew is not waiting for things to end, but bravely saying goodbye to them! Once you have chosen your direction, do not dwell too much on the distant future. Simply act according to your ability and persevere through the wind and rain. As long as life continues, the struggle never ends.
What makes you stronger is not persistence, but letting go; what makes you more detached is not gaining, but losing; what allows you to start anew is not waiting for things to end, but bravely saying goodbye to them.
