If the heart is simple, the world becomes simple, and happiness grows naturally; if the heart is free, life becomes free, and joy exists everywhere. In times of success, one should remain humble; in times of failure, one should stay open-minded. There are many things in life that can be let go of.
Life is like a stage; as long as life continues, the performance will not end. Life is like a play, where we, like clowns, act out one drama after another.
When the heart is small, all trivial matters seem huge; when the heart is broad, all major issues seem minor. In great and difficult matters, look to responsibility; in adversity and prosperity, look to tolerance; in joy and anger, look to cultivation; in giving and receiving, look to wisdom; in success and failure, look to perseverance. Let things happen naturally; handle situations calmly; be indifferent when proud; be composed when disappointed; hardship is inevitable; wisdom comes after experiencing the vicissitudes of life. Drink tea of purity, keep silent on matters of right and wrong.
People strive for higher ground, while water flows to lower places. Only by climbing higher can we see farther; with a clear goal, we can find our life's direction.
Taste the story of autumn, do you understand? It is intoxicating passion and holy romance. Embrace the earth full of desire; all forgotten entanglements will give birth to new love beneath the feet of autumn. Kiss the scenery of autumn; the earth's lovely cheeks are beautiful and tender.
Life is bound to encounter various pains and troubles, but we need not torment ourselves. If you stare constantly at a few ink spots on a white wall, darkness will occupy your entire vision. Similarly, if you always cling to certain fragments of life, you will lose the whole of life. Letting yourself go and not torturing yourself is a great wisdom.
