The two hardest things in life: First, contentment. A happy life is not because you have gained much, but because you fret over little. Knowing what is insufficient leads to progress. Knowing contentment leads to happiness. Second, gratitude. In this world, no one has to be good to you. Do not take others' kindness to you for granted. Learn to be grateful, and happiness will flow endlessly. The content are always happy, the grateful are always blessed. Learn to be content, know how to be grateful, and life will be bright and sunny!

In a lifetime, people have two pursuits:
One is to be wealthy, the other is to be valuable,
A wealthy person is not necessarily valuable,
But a valuable person will sooner or later have wealth;
The process of continuous learning and hard work,
Is the process of making yourself continuously more valuable!

Once some people leave,
You will never see their faces again,
You will never hear their voices again,
There will never be another chance for reunion.
Once some people walk far away,
Whether you are willing or not, you can only bid farewell,
Whether you regret it or not, they will not return,
Whether you are sad or not, you must accept it.
Leaving is but a moment,
Life and death, however, are a lifetime.
In a moment, perhaps it can still be salvaged,
In a lifetime, there is no chance to start over.
The most ruthless thing about life is parting in life and death,
And we always, after someone has left,
Only then remember there were many words left unsaid,
Recall there was much love left ungiven.
Unfortunately there is no "if," life has no assumptions,
Everything cannot return to the past.
Unfortunately there can be no meeting, time cannot turn back,
No matter how sad, you must go on.
The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, Zhongyuan Festival,
Holding a lotus lantern and setting it into the water,
Hoping it can send that longing in the heart,
To the departed ones far away,
I wonder if you are well in that other world?
What is parting?
Not swollen eyes from crying, not a heart torn to pieces,
But the helplessness of never being able to see again,
But the melancholy of never being able to hear again.
The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, Zhongyuan Festival,
The eternal lamp mingles with the moonlight,
Dancing with that wistful trembling in the heart,
Bidding a reluctant farewell to the past,
The moonlight sways, I wonder if you can see clearly the road you came by?
Zhongyuan Festival,
No goodbyes, no talk of parting,
Only for remembrance, only for blessings!
Because,
Some people are before your eyes, some are in your heart,
There is no so-called separation, only treasuring in the heart!
