Adults often find wind annoying, worrying about their hair getting messy or the weather turning cold. In contrast, children find joy in the wind, as it sets their small pinwheels spinning and allows them to fly kites again. This difference in perspective reflects how mindset determines emotion.
We must rely on backbone to stand tall, on vitality to welcome hope, on courage to gain strength, on talent to write brilliant chapters, and on popularity to unite and thrive. These are not just slogans, but the foundation of one's character.
Control your emotions; do not let them control you. Do not become an emotional person, for otherwise, a few words from others can easily make your feelings fluctuate wildly.
At any time, do not feel the need to explain yourself, even in the case of a misunderstanding. As long as you understand yourself, there is no need to seek understanding from people who do not matter. For most people, in most cases, one can only rely on oneself. Lacking a prominent background, not having met a patron, or not having attended a prestigious school—none of these matter. The key lies in the path you are determined to take, the person you aspire to be, and how you prepare to tackle your own laziness.
Only those who know how to stop know how to accelerate. Watching others ski, it seemed easy—wasn't it just sliding from the top of the mountain to the bottom? So, I put on my skis and whooshed down, only to end up rolling from the top to the bottom, falling many times. Eventually, I repeatedly practiced how to stop on snow and slopes. After a week of practice, I finally learned to stop, slide, and stop again on any slope. It was then that I realized I had truly learned to ski and dared to rush down the mountain at high speed. I knew that if I wanted to stop, I could turn and halt immediately. Therefore, only those who know how to stop know how to move forward at high speed.
If you have a choice, do not end a love with hatred.
