Edited version

We always face a lot of things which it we are helpless about. Some things are not perfect but they still can’t be changed. Someone once said that if you don’t want to be changed by the world, then you should change the world.

However, most of the time, the harder you work, the more you go in the opposite direction to the one you want. Finally, you have to choose to compromise or to take a step back. I admire some Chinese ancient poets, because they seem to live in a happy world of their own when you read their verses.
