Elegance Matters

ByNgọc Ngà

😌🌿🌟
In middle age, without an elegant demeanor, one is bound to appear shallow; without a composed demeanor, one is bound to appear desperate.
//
人到中年，若是身上没有优雅的样子，就免不了有肤浅的样子；没有从容的样子，就免不了有绝望的样子。
Rén dào zhōng nián, ruòshì shēnshang méiyǒu yōuyǎ de yàngzi, jiù miǎnbule yǒu fūqiǎn de yàngzi; méiyǒu cóngróng de yàngzi, jiù miǎnbule yǒu juéwàng de yàngzi.
//
Nhân đáo trung niên, nhược thị thân thượng một hữu ưu nhã đích dạng tử, tựu miễn bất liễu hữu phu thiển đích dạng tử; một hữu tòng dung đích dạng tử, tựu miễn bất liễu hữu tuyệt vọng đích dạng tử.
//
Người đến tuổi trung niên, nếu trên người không có bộ dáng tao nhã, liền tránh không được có bộ dáng nông cạn; không có bộ dáng thong dong, liền tránh không được có bộ dáng tuyệt vọng.

💪👷‍♂️🛠️ “Not wanting to go to work” and “not wanting to go to work but still going” are common aspects of life.

🤔💭 #Reflection #Remembering I tried not to think about that, but neither could I ever forget. // 不思量，自难忘。 Bù sī liang, zì nán wàng. // Bất tư lượng, tự nan vong. // Dù không cố nhớ nhưng lòng chẳng quên. P.s.: Picture taken in Langmusi (Taktsang Lhamo), Sichuan and Gansu, China in 2019.
