However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do notshun(回避)it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poor-house. Thesetting sun(落日)is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man'sabode(住处); the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. May be they are simply great enough to receive withoutmisgiving(担忧,疑虑). Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, which should be moredisreputable(声名狼藉的). Cultivate poverty like a gardenherb(香草,药草), likesage(圣人,哲人). Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends, Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
