適可而止 ***

把水放任何器皿
都不可以太過滿
太滿就會溢出來
能夠做到要明瞭
凡事要適可而止
換句話知足知止
才不會惹禍上身
過著清閒的日子

Don’t go too far ***

When you pour water into any vessel, don’t fill it up to the top; otherwise you will spill the water. You need to understand that everything in life has a limit. In other words, learn to be content. If you learn that, then you will never get yourself into trouble and you can relax and live a leisurely life.

知足常樂 ***

人生最寶貴財富
就是學會了知足
能控制個人貪慾
一切都適可而止
不太過份去追求
就不會災患隨身
要謹記知足常樂
可長保生活輕鬆
Being content brings happiness ***

The most valuable asset in life is to be contented. If you can control your desires, take everything in moderation and don’t chase after your frivolous desires, then you will not get yourself into trouble. Remember to be contented and you will have relaxing days.
