Economic Bad Luck
😂📉🥲 During the economic boom, I was a broke kid dreaming of growing up. By the time I finally became an adult, the economy took a downturn. // 经济上行期我是个没钱的小孩，每天期盼着长大，好不容易长成大人，经济又开始下行了。 Jīngjì shàngxíng qī wǒ shì gè méi qián de xiǎohái, měitiān qīpàn zhe zhǎngdà, hǎo bù róngyì zhǎng chéng dàrén, jīngjì yòu kāishǐ xiàxíng le. // […]
Money Struggles
💸😞🌍 This world exhausts me. Even the money I deeply love is always in someone else’s pocket. // 这个世界让我感觉疲惫，就连唯一深爱的钱也在别人兜里。 Zhège shìjiè ràng wǒ gǎnjué píbèi, jiù lián wéiyī shēn ài de qián yě zài biérén dōu lǐ. // Giá cá thế giới nhượng ngã cảm giác bì bại, tựu liên duy nhất thâm ái đích […]
Peaceful Detachment
🕯️🚫🙏 Letting go of attachment doesn’t mean forgetting someone. It means you still remember them, but you no longer wait for them to show up or respond. // 所谓没有执念，就是你依然记得那个人，但不再期待对方的出现与回应了。 Suǒwèi méiyǒu zhíniàn, jiùshì nǐ yīrán jìde nàge rén, dàn bù zài qīdài duìfāng de chūxiàn yǔ huíyìng le. // Sở vị một hữu chấp niệm, […]
Mental Boundaries
🧠👀🛡️ The ability to shield oneself is the highest-level skill a person can possess. Anyone or anything that drains your energy is your own fault for paying them any attention. // 屏蔽力是一个人最顶级的能力，任何消耗你的人和事，多看一眼都是你的不对。 Píngbì lì shì yīgè rén zuì dǐngjí de nénglì, rènhé xiāohào nǐ de rén hé shì, duō kàn yī yǎn dōu shì nǐ […]
Healing Takes Time
📱✂️💔 Deleting someone’s contact doesn’t mean you’ve instantly let go. It merely signifies a decision at that moment to give up on the other person. // 删掉联系方式不代表就能立刻放下，这个行为仅仅代表在那一刻，决定了要放弃对方。 Shān diào liánxì fāngshì bù dàibiǎo jiù néng lìkè fàng xià, zhège xíngwéi jǐnjǐn dàibiǎo zài nà yī kè, juédìng le yào fàngqì duìfāng. // San điệu liên […]
Human Experience
🌧️💛🌿 We cry, and only then know this is sorrow. We fall, and only then know this is pain. We love, and only then know this is love. // 我们哭了，才知道这就是伤心；我们跌倒，才知道这就是痛；我们爱了，才知道这就是爱。 Wǒmen kū le, cái zhīdào zhè jiùshì shāngxīn; wǒmen diēdǎo, cái zhīdào zhè jiùshì tòng; wǒmen ài le, cái zhīdào zhè jiùshì ài. // Ngã […]
Feelings Fade
💔⏳🕊️ Saying I would love you for a lifetime is true, and now no longer loving you is also true. // 说要一辈子要爱你，是真的，现在不爱了，也是真的。 Shuō yào yībèizi yào ài nǐ, shì zhēn de, xiànzài bù ài le, yě shì zhēn de. // Thuyết yếu nhất bối tử yếu ái nhĩ, thị chân đích, hiện tại bất ái […]
Beyond First Sight
🌸👀💞 Why must life feel like that very first meeting? All that matters is that we never tire of looking at each other. // 人生何必如初见，但求相看两不厌。 Rénshēng hébì rú chū jiàn, dàn qiú xiāng kàn liǎng bù yàn. // Nhân sinh hà tất như sơ kiến, đãn cầu tương khan lưỡng bất yếm. // Sao phải […]
Writer’s Eyes
📝🌿🌤️ When I catch the effect of light, I write it down. When I spot a small tree on a lawn, I store it in my heart. I jot down strings of words, and note the sentences I happen to hear along the way. // 看到光的效果，我会记录下来；看到草坪上的一棵小树，我也会记在心里；我会写出一串单词，记下我在路上听到的句子。 Kàndào guāng de xiàoguǒ, wǒ huì jìlù xià lái; […]
