An old Chinese idiom:
Friendship between gentlemen is as light as water
When observing the change in garden starting from spring till today, flowers that have very strong sweetness aroma normally didn't last long. Year in and year out, the nature rhythm remains unchanged in such straight forwards and simple manner. What will happen in the garden next year, again it is something that can not be predicted now. So what is the difference in the relationships or friendships between people?
The sooner we can see through this nature rhythm of change, the sooner we can relief burden from our shoulders.
If we can maintain positive thinking and energy, then whether the day is a good day or bad day won't make too much different, isn't it? Everything rest when the sun is sat and tomorrow is another day.
