Not getting an order is not something to be ashamed of, but not knowing why you didn't get it is. Life is neither short nor long; it all depends on how we choose to act out this play. I believe that with diligent effort, a supporting role will eventually become the lead. In this cruel and realistic society, the law of the jungle and natural selection are commonplace. If you do not strive to live and fight for everything, you risk being eliminated by society at any moment.
The greatest difference between people lies not in their eyesight, but in their vision. Eyesight sees the same things, but vision sees different worlds. Eyesight looks at the road at your feet, while vision looks at the whole world.
The greatest enemy is oneself; the greatest failure is arrogance; the greatest ignorance is self-deception; the greatest tragedy is self-abandonment; the greatest bankruptcy is despair; the greatest comfort is dedication; and the greatest wealth is health.
As you turn and leave, I pretend to be fearless. But deep down, I know I am exhausted. I let loneliness and disappointment write themselves on my face, letting tears well up, running down my cheeks and lips, flowing into my heart. In truth, I care about you deeply, even though I cannot express much love, I can only let my tears flow.
Stillness is both outer tranquility and inner peace. It is not only a way to cultivate one's nature but also a treasure for regulating the spirit. Having seen a thousand mountains, one's heart remains like still water; having crossed a thousand sails, one remains undisturbed by waves. Stillness is a defense against vanity and impatience, aiming for a state of "clear mind and quiet intent." Laozi's concept of "pure stillness and non-action" implies that "stillness reveals the source." As the saying goes, "Only when the heart is quiet can one perceive true things."
