There are few people we meet in life, and even fewer we can truly give ourselves to. Therefore, we should focus on the present and live simply.
Being busy is a blessing, for it leaves us no time for pain; being on the move is a joy, for it lets us truly feel life; being exhausted is an enjoyment, for it leaves no room for emptiness; and setbacks are experiences, for they allow us to profoundly understand life.
Guard your words when with others, and guard your heart when you are alone.
Exposing one's intelligence is not as good as concealing wisdom. Be a "cleverly foolish person"—practice patience and hide your brilliance. Know when to show weakness to gain sympathy, cleverly mask your true strength, remain humble in success, and keep your emotions in check. Learn to focus on the big picture and be lenient with trivial matters.
Life is not tiring because of the journey, but because of the burdens and hardships we carry. When the mind is not calm, thoughts become chaotic, and the spirit becomes lost. Clear water is worry-free because it follows its nature; fallen leaves are regret-free because they empty their hearts. Let go of all obsessions, and you can enjoy the moonlight at night and the autumn breeze.
