Kahlil Gibran.
For the first time, when I see her docile, she may reach a height.
The first time I saw her pretending to be humble when she could have made progress.
The second time I saw her limping in front of the lame.
The second time, when it is empty, it is full of love; -
The third time, when she chose between difficulty and easy, she chose easy.
The third time, between easy and difficult, she chose easy. -
The fourth time, when she made a mistake, she comforted herself that others would make mistakes.
The fourth time, when she made a mistake, she comforted herself with the fact that others can make mistakes. -
The fifth time, she restrained her weakness and attributed her patience to strength.
The fifth time, she endured because of weakness, but claimed to be tenacious. -
The sixth time was when she despised an ugly face and didn't know it was one of her own masks.
The sixth time, when she despised an ugly face, she didn't know it was one of her masks.
The seventh time, she sang a song of praise and thought it was a virtue.
The seventh time, it leans in the mud of life, though unwilling, but timid.
Kahlil Gibran,1883 ——1931Ji Bolun
I once chose to be content with the status quo because I didn't listen to my heart, because I was cowardly and afraid.
