Water is gentle; she is transparent, colorless, and odorless. When she flows in a babbling brook, she brings joy and delight; when she drips incessantly from the eaves, she embodies the tenacity of water wearing away stone; as the Yangtze River surges and crashes against the banks, she demonstrates a world-shaking power; and in the vast, dark ocean under heavy clouds, she evokes a sense of boundless fear.
Common sense in life teaches us: avoid things that are blinding, do not eat what is infested, do not cling to everything that looks pleasing, and do not let anger block your path; the wisdom of life teaches us: do not flaunt wealth, do not be blinded by jealousy, do not harbor greed, and do not let your heart turn corrupt.
In this world, Only one person stands in the way of your growth—yourself. The weakness of human nature lies in the inability to let go: being unable to relinquish a fading relationship, a moment of vanity, or the desire for applause. True love is learning to value someone else more than yourself.
