Daily Advice May 3, 2013 追求甚麽 What to pursue

五月三日	May 3, 2013
追求甚麽 *** 追求甚麽是最好 外貌可能是矇騙 名氣始終會過氣 最好找個開心果 能令你內心笑岀 笑確是一種良藥 就算心情是憂鬱 笑也可替你消愁	What to pursue   *** What is the best thing that one should pursue? Appearances may be deceiving. Fame is only temporary, and all glory is fleeting.   The best thing to do is to look for a positive person.  He/she can make you laugh.  Laughter is a good medicine.  It can remove almost all concerns, including your most serious worries.
伴侶唔易求 *** 如意郎君唔易求 賢妻良母更難尋 既然如此要緊記 不花時間在找尋 花在自己的身上 做個模範好男兒 做個溫馨賢淑女 那愁沒有好伴侶	Soul mates are hard to find  *** It isn't easy to find a good husband.   It is even harder to find a good wife.  If that is the case, don't spend any valuable time on searching for your soul mate.  Instead put your efforts into your own self.  Improve your behavior in order to become a role model as a gentleman or a fair lady.  With such an approach, you shouldn't worry about finding a good partner.

大自然天地 *** 無論瑣事多繁雜 心情有幾多鬱悶 回歸大自然天地 立即會精神爽利 心情如雲破天開 煩惱會暫時忘悼 享受青山和綠水 過個愉快的一天	Beautiful Nature *** Regardless of how busy you are, and how depressed you are, you will feel relaxed if you go out and enjoy the beautiful nature in your neighborhood.  You will be influenced by the blue sky to the degree that you will be open-minded, and forget all your worries temporarily.  Just enjoy the beautiful scenery of the green mountains and the blue seas.  Do yourself a favor: have a pleasant and wonderful day.

Daily Advice May 1, 2013 生活的壓迫 Oppression of daily life

五月一日	May 1, 2013
生活的壓迫 *** 環境激劇的波動 生活高度的壓迫 難免眾人會徬徨 日憂夜慮的情緒 弄到夜夜夢未成 這樣做人沒趣味 何不去改變心態 保持樂觀活下去	Oppression of daily life ***     The frustrating environment, and the oppression of our daily life, has made us become anxious about everything, resulting in worrying from dawn till dusk.  Inevitably, no one will sleep well.  If this continues, life will be no fun.  Why don’t we do something about it?  The best approach is to change our attitude to be positive and live happily ever after.
聽天命 *** 有些事看似凶險 其實可能是福星 有些似可喜可慶 結果是可悲可泣 福禍是人生難料 得失是沒有絕對 凡事只要盡人事 結果只有聽天命	Listen to our fate *** Some things from their appearance may look dangerous, but in reality, they are our lucky stars.  Yet there are things that seem worth celebrating but they turn out to be sad events causing nothing but tears.  Good luck or misfortune cannot be predicted.  Gains and losses are not absolute.  As long as we have taken action and put in our best efforts, we should let our fate lead us to the ultimate results.

報仇  *** 仇不一定是要報 一切以大局為重 如果報仇能做到 令眾人得到利益 那就努力去報仇 如果只是為洩憤 全沒有眾人利益 報仇是沒有意義	Revenge *** No one says that one must exact revenge for everything.  On the contrary, one must think of the whole situation and whatever one does whether it is for the benefits of all parties.  If the result of your revenge is beneficial to all people, then go ahead and take revenge.  But if your revenge is nothing but for venting your anger, then your action of taking revenge is meaningless.
誰能忍到底 *** 有的仇不報也罷 如報仇是鬥耐力 看看誰能忍到底 誰可以笑到最終 如此報仇是受苦 如果不報會輕鬆 反而仇家會緊張 弄到沒精力幹事	Who can endure to the end *** Some acts of revenge are not worth doing.  If your revenge is nothing but a test of both parties’ endurance to see who can last longer, it is pointless.  Such a behavior is both a joke and a punishment.  If you give up the idea of revenge, you will be able to relax.  Such behavior may confuse your enemy and make him/her worry more and ultimately end up losing his/her energy to do anything.

人人有抱負 *** 人人都會有抱負 只要肯立定目標 對自己要有信心 肯用心勤奮學習 不怕艱苦向前行 加上有誠信毅力 向準目標去努力 定成功不會失敗	Everybody has a dream  ***            Everyone has a dream.  As long as one is willing to set up a personal goal, has confidence in oneself, willing to learn, is not afraid of working hard and diligently towards achieving one’s personal goal, there is no doubt that there will be no failure but success.

平步青雲 *** 一樣米養百樣人 有人喜哈過日子 遊戲人間日渡日 有人天天淚兩行 有人努力搵兩餐 汗水淚水也不怕 不停步不斷上進 結果可平步青雲	Rising up the corporate ladder *** Eating the same kind of rice may not produce the same character in people.  People are different.  Some people always wear a smile and are able to relax everyday.  Others are up tight and put on a sad face with hidden tears.  Yet there are people who work hard to make a living.  They are not afraid to be laborious even though they have to sweat heavily everyday.  They will not be lazy but put in effort to move upwards to rise up the corporate ladder.
醉生夢死 *** 有些人醉生夢死 懵懵懂懂過生活 糊裡糊塗過日子 隨著社會的潮流 沈迷於生死之中 所為享樂又如何 生活未必有意義 可能是虛渡一生	The dream life   Some people live in a dream world of an unfocused life.   Their life is without personal goal.   They wake up and retire without any constructive events.  They just get along with the social trends, not knowing whether it leads to life or death.  Even though they may be enjoying life, their life may not have any meaning.  If that is the case, then they may be wasting time in their life.

盼望 *** 盼望可代表希望 但不應憑空等待 應有實質的計劃 先要由自信開始 對自己要有信心 要有個正確目標 明瞭向前的過程 才可能完成盼望	Expectations *** Expectations may mean there is hope but don’t expect something that you know may never happen.  You should have a plan that will make what you expect to come to fruition.  First, you must build up your own confidence.  Have confidence in yourself and set a reasonable and achievable goal.  Make sure you understand how to move forward.  Then you can expect things will happen and you will be able to achieve your goal.
問心無愧 *** 凡做任何一件事 能做到問心無愧 盡了個人的責任 可算是心安理得 無須要計較回報 別人怎麼樣看你 別人怎麼樣待你 一切都是唔重要	Have a clear conscience  ***    No matter whatever you do, you must maintain a clear conscience.   Make sure you take responsibility for what you do.   Then, you don't have to feel guilty.  You don’t need to worry how people look at you, and how they react to your performance.  As long as you do your work with a clear conscience, how people react to you is not important.

難分勝負 *** 兩強難分勝負時 為了保持著實力 不防握手去言和 講和後養精蓄銳 徐圖將來再作戰 今回言和無所謂 當自己是成功者 提前去享受勝利	Difficult to defeat *** When two parties cannot defeat each other, it may be a smart move to save your energy, shake hands with your opponent, and declare peace.  Afterwards, improve yourself and get ready for the next competition.   This time, pretend you are the winner and celebrate in advance to enjoy your victory.

四月二十三日	April 23, 2013
慈悲幫人 *** 當有人向你求助 如果能力做得到 盡點慈悲去幫人 幫不了就要拒絕 不應該亂起諾言 如不能實踐諾言 不但令別人失望 有可能傷害別人	Offer a hand with compassion *** When people ask you for help and you have the ability to do it, show your compassion and offer a hand.   But if you don’t have the ability to do so, don’t promise to help; otherwise when you cannot deliver your promise, not only will you make people disappointed, you may hurt people, because of your inability to help.
付出不求報 *** 自己給別人甚麼 別人就給你甚麼 其實未必是對的 付出是個人表現 是種良好人情味 不應該期求回報 肯願意幫助別人 人生會顯得光彩	To give but not to expect to receive *** Whatever you give to people, you can’t expect people do the same.  Offering help is a performance of personal preference.  You should not expect anything in return.  Willing to help others makes life more splendid.
