The greatest difference between people is not in their eyesight, but in their perspective. Eyesight sees the same objects, but perspective reveals different worlds. Eyesight focuses on the path beneath your feet, while perspective embraces the entire world.
Some troubles are merely imaginary, yet we often treat them as real and bear the burden.
There is no need to burden a young soul with heaviness. Surface-level weariness and external seriousness will not elevate you to a philosopher. If you leave all your friends behind, you are left only with a lonely silhouette. Since I cannot yet become profound, let me choose to be light. How can one with a gloomy face hear the sound of blooming flowers? How can one who hides behind masks understand the excitement in the chorus of frogs?
Do not take it to heart if someone is unkind to you, for no one is obligated to be kind. The knowledge you acquire is your weapon; you may start with nothing, but you must never be defenseless. How you treat others does not determine how they treat you. Failing to see this only adds unnecessary trouble. The bond with family is a once-in-a-lifetime grace. Cherish it, for in the next life, whether you love or not, you will never meet again.
Still, a few refuse to accept loss, attempting to use the fluttering wings of butterflies to hold onto a past of pairs. Yet, they cannot catch the falling tears. When there is no longer any hope to hold, the brilliance blooming in your mind slowly, slowly closes.
As the saying goes, 'There is no feast that does not end.' The ultimate destination of life is always death. Life is about understanding through experience. Often, words are hollow, and silent years slip away like mercury from fingertips. So gentle, like the night retreating into dusk, quietly carrying away memories as thin as silk.
