Do not blame others for disappointing you; instead, reflect on whether your expectations were too high. Mountains have their height, and water has its depth; there is no need to compare, as everyone has their own strengths. The wind has its freedom, and clouds have their gentleness; there is no need to imitate, as everyone has their own personality. Seek what you consider joyful, guard what you deem valuable, and cherish what you find happy. There are no events that are not commented upon, and no people who are not speculated about.
Life requires slow, solitary savoring, reading the roles played by those around us. Playing against type is not necessarily bad; it requires a righteous role to cooperate, creating a colorful landscape. If you ask me what life truly is, I can only say: life is like a play, where the curtain falls and the crowd disperses; life is like a chess game, where one wrong move leads to a series of errors, and a moment of carelessness can leave a regret for eternity! Life is like a painting, where a single stroke outlines a magnificent and colorful bloom!
No matter how good an industry is, it is not suitable if you have no interest in it. You must find a balance between interest and survival, carefully weighing your orientation and needs. Otherwise, you will spend your life in complaint and lamentation.
Those who flatter each other are officials; those who look down on each other are artists; those who do not tell the truth when meeting are businesspeople.
Approach and attend to a wise teacher with closeness, and maintain loyalty without rebellion.
The way of heaven rewards virtue, benevolence, goodness, harmony, wisdom, and diligence.
