"Emotions are not a one-sided performance but a sincere devotion from both parties." The most desolate thing in the world is when I cook for you, you feast; I make the bed, you sleep peacefully; I offer my kindness, you enjoy it all. However, you consistently turn a blind eye to my efforts even causing me harm. Instead of waiting for an endless story with no conclusion, enduring an unreciprocated emotion, it's wiser to turn away timely. In the future, reserve precious feelings for the right person.
Wrong
Paths Need Turning, Wrong People Need Letting Go
Hunters on
the grasslands set traps to capture animals. They observed a peculiar
phenomenon: they caught various animals frequently but seldom managed to trap
wolves. It was revealed that when a wolf was caught in a trap, it would gnaw
its leg off along with the bone and sinew, escaping with three bleeding legs.
In economics, there's the concept of "sunk costs," referring to costs
invested and impossible to recover, such as time, money, and emotions. Faced
with these "sunk costs," some spend days regretting without the
courage to let go, sinking deeper into a chasm, making the situation
irretrievable. Others, like a gecko, shed the tail, abandon the loss, and start
anew.
Mistakes are
sometimes inevitable in relationships. It's most challenging when one walks a
path, loves for half a lifetime, only to realize that everything was wrong.
Only those who have experienced the entanglement and pain that are desperate to
end it can genuinely understand. Instead of clinging to future expectations,
it's better to bravely let go, thus severing ties. This way, one can escape the
whirlpool and prevent greater losses. Be it in economics or emotions, a timely
stop-loss, seemingly painful, is actually a form of wisdom. "Turn back
from the wrong path in love, let go of the wrong person promptly." Only
then can one preserve their dignity or perhaps luckily encounter the right
person.
Meeting
the Right Person Exchanges True Feelings
In this
materialistic world, many emotions are driven by self-interest. If,
unfortunately, you find yourself in such a situation, retract your genuine
emotions and learn to turn away. In life, some roads are only appreciated after
traveling them; some individuals' worth is only realized after interacting with
them; some emotions' value is only discovered after investing in them. These
people and emotions, whether right or wrong, are all part of our lives. Only by
accepting and forgetting can we continue to move forward. If you meet a good person,
wholeheartedly give your all. If you haven't yet, hold onto your sincerity and
love yourself well. Sometimes, turning away might bring rebirth.

Giving
without losing dignity, even with much effort, rarely earns others' respect and
praise. It's only through giving with boundaries, offering with dignity, and
being kind yet firm that one can gain others' respect and cherish. There is no
standard for those who love you; they allow you to be yourself in the most
relaxed state. Those who don't love you constantly demand and calculate,
seeking to satisfy their desires. Rather than let others continually deplete
you, it's better to turn away. Sometimes, turning away might signify a new
beginning. Therefore, your genuine affection should be treasured, only for the
right person. Life only bestows deserved happiness when one gives to those who
are worthy. Perhaps the most valuable thing in life is true affection, and the
most precious is genuine feelings. Since genuine emotions are rare and precious,
they shouldn't be wasted. Life is limited; don't waste a lifetime's effort on
unworthy people. If accompanied by a virtuous individual, one will shine
brightly; if alone, one must learn to illuminate oneself. In the days to come,
always save your sincerity for the right person.
