逆境是個寶 ***

你未必一定同意
逆境可以是個寶
真實社會的環境
有時好可以變壞
而壞也可以變好
凡事多轉一個彎
換角度再看逆境
看透了就有好轉

Adversity can be a kind of blessing in disguise ***

You may not agree that adversity is a valuable experience. Adversity gives people a chance to change. In real life, sometimes something good can change into something bad. Yet something bad can change into something good too. As long as you allow yourself a second chance and look at adversity from a positive angle, you may find a solution to handle the adverse circumstances and turn the situation around.

安居思危 ***

如能吃得苦中苦
便可以苦盡甘來
如不會知福享福
有可能福盡悲來
人生是變幻無常
環境隨時有變化
而且變得很突然
安居思危是上策

Be alert at all times ***

If you are strong and able to endure hardship stoically, you will ultimately find that life can be sweet. But if you don’t know how to recognize your good fortune and enjoy life, you may end up feeling sad. Life is forever changing and the change is unpredictable. Therefore, even though you may be living in contentment, you should have a plan and be alert that there may be some danger ahead.
