Your own failure is terrible, but your friend’s success is even more heart-wrenching.

People always praise the smell of meat when eating it, and scold the dishes for being dirty when washing dishes.

People despise each other and flatter each other. People each hope that they are higher than others, and each prostrate himself in front of others.

The so-called experience of high emotional intelligence is that when you tell a lie, the other person knows it but accepts it happily. On the other hand, if you have low emotional intelligence, you have to apologize to the other person even though you told the truth.

Compromising will bring you more and more, so don’t expect to get any respect or heartache in return.

People have thousands of faces, and their hearts have thousands of changes. Don’t tell everything you know, and don’t believe everything you hear. In this cold society, you never know who is playing tricks on whom.

What’s so scary about ghosts? Look at people’s hearts. Actors and actresses surround you, and everyone’s face is ever-changing. If you dig your heart out with someone today, you’ll definitely regret it tomorrow.

When you have no money, do good things first; when you have money, do things well. It’s a pity that most people are just the opposite. They don’t take themselves as human beings when they have no money, and they don’t take themselves as serious matters when they have money.

Suddenly one day, you feel that everyone close to you is just pretending. Don’t worry or be afraid. This means that you are mature and there is nothing to make a fuss about.

Life is like playing Super Mario. Even a little tortoise can kill you instantly when you don’t eat mushrooms to grow bigger.

You think that those people you have helped will at least show compassion when you are in trouble, but often these people are the ones who are most likely to add insult to injury.

Being too involved in others is a chronic suicide for yourself. Kindness can be free, but it cannot be cheap. Paying without paying attention to rewards will only be counterproductive.

Don’t be unconditionally good to someone, no matter how much you love them, don’t love them. Because over time, that person will get used to it and take it for granted.

Since ancient times, true love cannot be retained, only tricks can win people’s hearts. Gradually, you will find that a good heart can never be as good as a good mouth.

The enthusiasm that does not get a response should be stopped in moderation because this kind of dedication often only moves you.

In this society, what you are truly proud of is not how many people you know when you are glorious, but how many people still know you when you are in trouble.

What is reality? Lawyers want you to be accused, doctors want you to get sick, mechanics want your car to break down, and thieves want you to be prosperous and wealthy forever.

If happiness is shared with the wrong person, it becomes a show-off; if sadness is shared with the wrong person, it becomes hypocrisy or even a joke.

The relationship between people is like knitting a sweater. When it is established, it is stitch by stitch, careful and long, and when it is removed, it only takes a gentle pull.

Don’t let reality slap you in the face. Only then do you realize how hypocritical society is; only when you let your so-called friends hurt you do you realize how terrible people’s hearts are.

If you are too kind, you will lack perspective; if you are too humble, you will be weak. If you are too tolerant, others will not appreciate you and will only become more tolerant.

No matter how you live your life, there will always be people making irresponsible remarks about you behind your back. To laugh it off without defending or caring is actually the best form of contempt.

To make friends, you must be better than yourself. It is better to be like me than not. But after three or five days, we didn’t see each other as well as before.

If you are good to a person, the other person may not remember it, but if you are bad to a person, the other person may remember it for a lifetime. Don’t expect to be kind to others, but don’t cause trouble.

People with hope can find sunshine everywhere. People who are ugly inside will see darkness everywhere. Most of the time, the world you see is what you are as a person.

Being kind to a few people is called smart. Being kind to most people is called kindness. If you show your heart to anyone, you will call them a fool.

Human nature is that the more you are afraid, the more people will bully you. You have nothing to fear, and no one dares to bully you. If you are too nice, everyone will take advantage of you. If you are more aggressive, they may come to please you.

Being angry is punishing oneself for other people’s mistakes; being distressed is torturing oneself with one’s mistakes; being anxious is scaring oneself with unknown risks.

When you are in trouble, you know your friends; when you are proud, your friends know you. See yourself clearly in great joys and sorrows, see your friends clearly in great ups and downs.
