The pursuit of happiness is not about chasing after pleasure but about cultivating meaning.

"The stories we tell shape the world we live in."

Do you have the time to listen to me whine?

Read, read, read. Read everything — trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.

天下人了解自己，那么就与天下人同甘苦共患难；天下人不了解自己，就巍然在天地之间而无所畏惧这是上等的勇敢。与孟子的“达则兼济天下，穷则独善其身”有异曲同工之妙，只要自己行得正，心中有善，或者要做的是超前的大事业，而别人不理解自己，有“燕雀安知鸿鹄之志”的无奈，也无需畏惧别人的眼光，坚守自我。
