A ship without ballast cannot sail in a straight line; a life without responsibility and pressure will not develop into richness. As time marches on, we can only helplessly delete those dense memories.
Every person has latent energy, which is easily covered by habit, blurred by time, and worn away by inertia. Being helpful earns affection; softness brings charm; mildness gains preference; virtue commands respect. Optimists focus on smiling and forget resentment; pessimists focus on resentment and forget smiling.
Every blade of grass and tree experienced during youth remains intimately preserved in a person's memory at any time, and recalling them brings a sweetness that makes one's eyes sting. — Lu Yao, 'Life'
The happiest moment for a person is finding the right one, who spoils you, indulges your habits, and loves everything about you. When a woman steps back, the man should step back two. Be someone who understands love; it is better to be the loser than to defeat your beloved.
If you succeed, you will win some false and some true enemies; regardless, strive for success.
Why are we so anxious? We rush to grow up, rush to mature, yet a second or a tick of the clock neither speeds up nor slows down. We always fear missing out, feeling distressed at missing a subway train. We always want to grasp a bit more, whether it be life or anything else.
In the journey of life, everyone must go through a period of no help and no support to truly become strong. All matters are shouldered alone, and all emotions are known only to oneself. But once one grits their teeth and endures, everything changes.
Life is full of uncertainty; it can be clear skies just now and fine rain in an instant. Precisely because of this, our time is priceless, and our lives cannot be rehearsed. I still remember your sarcasm and harshness when I was in a bad state. If you hadn't pushed me, I would never have known how much potential I had.
