Return to Be a Hermit, Fishing in the Moonlight and Clear Breeze

Being a quietly elegant woman with personal preferences, principles, and beliefs. Unhurried and unassuming, serene and composed, yet capable of laughter and lightheartedness, with a heart as tranquil as water. Embracing a serene and tranquil lifestyle, learning to understand and cultivate compassion. If I gain, I am content; if I lose, it is my fate. That is all there is to it.

On the road, shoes can be replaced when worn, but the journey must be walked by oneself; feelings are held within, joys can be shared, but sorrows must be borne alone. Fatigue is felt in the feet, suffering is understood by the heart. Don't seek excuses for exhaustion; having nothing is the reason for striving; don't seek discomfort, without the bitterness, there will be sweetness. Tasting the incomprehensible pain, leads to comprehension; losing what was once held, reveals the value of appreciation.

I would rather be disliked for being myself than to deceive others by pretending to be someone I'm not. Those who understand me will remain, those who don't, I don't seek their presence. Because a life without happiness is better than one falsely lived.
Life is like a chessboard; regrets over fallen pieces are understood, hence each step is taken with thoughtfulness. Some place their pieces with force, others are hesitant, all in pursuit of an ending. The victor possesses an empire, and all of humanity bows before him. The defeated returns to a life of solitude, fishing in the moonlight, enjoying the breeze, content with himself.
