No matter the circumstances, always maintain your composure; stay steady and do not panic.
Leisure is a form of "Wu Wei" (non-action), which is not stagnation or death, but a state that makes life elegant, fluid, and full of vitality.
To follow fate means understanding that all things in this world are in constant flux due to the meeting and parting of causes and conditions. Love, hatred, fortune, misfortune, fame, and disgrace are all transient and not worth clinging to. Joy and sorrow are experienced equally, all arising from karma. Rather than experiencing extreme highs and lows over outcomes, it is better to carefully and mindfully choose good over evil beforehand. Following fate means putting in your utmost effort while remaining unattached to the results.
If you wish to avoid harming others, the prerequisite is to avoid having expectations of them, and simultaneously, do not allow them to have expectations of you. Achieving the latter is even more challenging, as it requires you to reveal your true self without selfishness or pretense at certain moments. On reflection, many hardships and failures in life are merely discordant notes in the song of time.
In this life, everything is but passing clouds. Whether gain or loss, all is ephemeral. Think about it—no matter yesterday, today, or tomorrow, as long as you can achieve clarity of mind, it is a beautiful day. The best way to live is to stop overthinking. As you experience events and meet people, you are both choosing and being chosen. Life is short; do not leave yourself with regrets. Love when you should love, and do not suppress yourself needlessly.
