Not causing trouble for others is an act of compassion, avoiding trouble for oneself is a form of wisdom. Do not cultivate yourself in the hearts of others, and do not insist on others in your own heart. Life is transient; why be entangled in a thousand knots? In the past, when feeling uneasy, I would cry because it couldn't be resolved. Later, feeling sad because I could endure, as it couldn't be changed. Now, when feeling upset, I laugh because it doesn't matter anymore. Life is like this; if you can bear it yourself, there's no need to make a fuss.
A person who lives with understanding has no specific relationships to maintain or specific things to desire. They don't resist those who come close or insist on those who leave. Even if they suffer losses, they can't be bothered to dwell on it. Time doesn't speak, but it can witness true feelings; time passes silently, yet it can see through hearts.
In this world, there are no people without wounds. At any time, you must believe that the only one who can truly heal you is yourself. Don't complain, don't fear loneliness, strive to settle down. Life is half fireworks, half pure joy; existence is half awake, half resigned. |
