Car Wisdom

The car's windshield is large, but the rearview mirror is small

🚗🔍👀 The car’s windshield is large, but the rearview mirror is small. Because the past is not as important as the future; looking forward requires more courage than looking backward. // 汽车的挡风玻璃很大,后视镜却很小。因为,过去没有未来重要,往前看比往后看更需要勇气。 Qìchē de dǎng fēng bōlí hěn dà, hòu shì jìng què hěn xiǎo. Yīnwèi, guòqù méiyǒu wèilái zhòngyào, wǎng qián kàn bǐ wǎng […]

Old acquaintances need not know the present, and new connections don't need to inquire about the past

🚢🔄🤐 Old acquaintances need not know the present, and new connections don’t need to inquire about the past.

Shàng […]

Three Mistakes

Compassion Journey

Life has three encounters: seeing the heavens and earth, seeing all living beings, and seeing yourself

🌏🚶‍♂️🤝 Life has three encounters: seeing the heavens and earth, seeing all living beings, and seeing yourself. Seeing the heavens and earth, one learns reverence, hence humility. Seeing all living beings, one understands compassion, hence tolerance. Seeing yourself clearly on the path, one gains clarity, hence broad-mindedness. // 人生有三见:见天地,见众生,见自己。见天地知敬畏,所以谦卑;见众生懂怜悯,所以宽容;见自己明归途,所以豁达。 Rénshēng yǒusān jiàn: Jiàn tiāndì, jiàn […]

Balancing Act

I went to work due to a lack of money

💰😴🏥 I went to work due to a lack of money, but after going to work, I lacked money and sleep, lacked health, and lost my life. // 因为缺钱而上班,但是上班后缺钱缺觉,缺健康又缺失了人生。 Yīnwèi quē qián ér shàngbān, dànshì shàngbān hòu quē qián quē jué, quē jiànkāng yòu quēshīle rénshēng. // Nhân vi khuyết tiền nhi thượng ban, đãn […]
