All along, my regret hasn't been about what we did together, but rather about what we never got to experience.
I began to imagine what love would be like, to anticipate the reluctance to part, and to foresee the separation. In these repeated assumptions, I found myself playing games with my own heart.
In life, not every effort yields the desired result. The so-called 'possession' is often just a fleeting sense of satisfaction. We are free to ask, to give wholeheartedly, to express ourselves boldly, and to pursue with intent, but we should not possess without limits. Once balance is disrupted, harmony is lost; and without harmony, life eventually perishes. Whether it is happiness or pain, it comes when it must and goes when it chooses.
Life is like a flower, blooming in a myriad of colors; life is like a song, melodious to the ear; life is like wine, fragrant and mellow; life is like a poem, profound in imagery and magnificent in variety.
A smile makes you look ten years younger; a smile dispels worries; a smile keeps illness at bay; a smile brings good fortune.
If fate doesn't favor you, please do not harm yourself.
This is the time for me to strive, because youth is right here before me.
If you give up too early, you will never know what you might have missed.
If you don't take things seriously, the 'truth' won't emerge. So, let's be serious about it.
Most people in life desire stability, hoping to spend their lives in peace and quiet, unwilling to face ups and downs or twists and turns. They firmly believe that happiness requires stability and joy requires tranquility. It is better to keep life simple: love when you love, hate when you hate, without disguise or pretense.
