Reading enhances life, keeps you youthful, and prevents suffering.

Sometimes, overthinking leads us to overlook other joys worth experiencing in life.

When assessing someone, don't just focus on appearances but on actions; don't judge hastily but take time to understand.

Seeing others fail shouldn't be an opportunity to elevate yourself at their expense. In reality, reveling in others' failures won't elevate your status. Instead, it may leave you stagnant. Remember, no one is immune to failure. Don't rejoice at others' misfortunes; you might find yourself in the same position someday.

You'll never fully understand or see all aspects of an issue. Truth is situational. Everyone has a story, a circumstance; unless you're them, you'll never comprehend what they're dealing with. So, be kind and listen. When others judge you, haven't you also wanted to say, “What do they know about me?”

Be cautious in debates, especially on social media. Engage only where there's respect and mutual listening. Don't be a 'slave to emotions' or a 'keyboard hero.' You're just wasting time crafting offensive words or defending yourself from attacks. They want to put you down; no matter what, they'll twist words to make you wrong. In the end, you're the one hurt, while the arguers gain attention for being 'controversial.'

You'll never accurately judge something unless you experience it firsthand. There's much more beneath the surface in life; you can't know what's under the blanket without looking… not just for bed bugs, but for the truth.

If you're uncomfortable with someone, be straightforward in giving feedback. If you feel they misunderstand or have a certain attitude towards you, ask them directly for the reason. If there are rumors about you, verify by talking, understanding why people say what they say about you. And if you've decided it's just gossip, then simply don't bother. Don't let 'imagination' be misused.

In love, express your feelings when you have them, and when they're gone. Loving each other doesn't require a reason, so breaking up doesn't need justifications. Think carefully, stay calm before expressing love or saying goodbye. If a third person appears, don't waste time being jealous or seeking revenge. If someone else interferes, it shows they didn't value you; there's no need to be sad over someone unworthy. Betrayal is just an indirect breakup - 'Okay, let's just break up then.'

Life should value two things: 'balance' and 'normalcy.' Overemphasizing one thing and neglecting another will leave you feeling uneasy. Sometimes, you'll feel conflicted between roles: as a mother, wanting to spend more time with your child; as an employee, wanting to focus on excelling at work. In such times, seek help from others to regain balance. Life relies on mutual support to move forward. When dealing with everything, consider it all as normal - in luck, there's misfortune; in misfortune, there's luck. No issue exists without both positive and negative aspects. Understand this, and you'll endure pain more easily, embracing peaceful happiness.

Don't underestimate anyone, and don't judge their worth based on what they have. Respect what they have from the sincerity in your heart, not out of fear that they might be 'someone' or could become 'someone' in the future. Even if someone has nothing in their hands, cannot offer you anything, as long as they don't harm anyone, they have equal human rights.

Don't try to please everyone. If a cat catches mice, mice hate it; if it doesn't catch mice, humans hate it, then it's no longer a cat. You only need those close to you to understand you, even if they don't understand everything, understanding part of you is precious. When loving someone, you don't need a reason, so when hating someone, you don't need many reasons. Don't force yourself to live according to others' desires; you can't be happy unless you're yourself.

Women are often perceived as having a deeper soul than men. Sometimes, overthinking inadvertently leads you to overlook other joys worth experiencing in life.
