To the future you.

Son, I hope you will always be an idealist.

You can be a farmer, you can be an engineer, you can be an actor, you can be homeless, but you must be an idealist.

In childhood, when we told you heroic stories, we didn't have to make you a hero, but we wanted you to have a pure character.

Young man, we put you in touch with poetry, painting and music in order to fill your heart with noble interest.

These noble tastes will support your life, so that you will not forget the fragrance of roses in the harshest winter.

Ideals make people stand out.

Son, don't worry about your appearance.

The ideal is pure of your temperament, and the most beautiful woman will be annoying because of vulgarity.

The path to your ideal is often unsatisfactory, and you will suffer a lot for it.

But, son, go for it, the idealist's ending is tragic and by no means pitiful.

In a seemingly rough life, you will meet many wise men and gentlemen, and you will see many landscapes and miracles that others cannot encounter.

The choice of mediocrity is safe, but it is absolutely colorless.

Don't give up your ideals for petty profits, don't change your beliefs for a certain trend.

The appearance of the material world is too complex, you need to know how to resist the temptation of vanity.

Ideal is not a material thing, it often can not bring you earthly enjoyment.

So you must get used to being unappreciated, learn to enjoy spiritually, and learn to be different from others.

Secondly, son, I hope you are a down-to-earth person.

Life is too short and there are too many empty things. it's easy to get dazzled and accomplish nothing in the end.

If you are a beautiful girl, many men will spoil you when you are young, and what you get is too easy, which will make you shallow and frivolous.

If you are a very smart boy, you will think that you can accomplish many great things and become frivolous.

Remember, everyone's ability is limited, and it is enough for us to do one thing well in the world.

Write a book and be a housewife.

Don't despise ordinary people, don't be opportunistic, and don't attack what you can't do.

When you grow up, you will know that it is too hard to do one thing well, but never give up.

You should know and cherish your feelings.

No matter men or women, no matter inside or outside the wall, it is not easy to meet each other.

There will be misunderstandings and frictions in the process of making friends, but think about it. How many people can travel together in the big world?

You should be grateful to understand that friends will eventually leave and that you will have someone by your side to listen to you and talk to you.

To love yourself and others, to understand yourself and others.

Your heart should be as soft as a stream, and your eyes should be as bright as spring.

If you can cry, you will sit alone in the dark and listen to sad music.

You should know how to appreciate tragedies. Tragedies can enrich your heart.

I hope you don't fawn on vulgarity.

You are an independent person, and no one can erase your independence unless you compromise with the world.

To learn to appreciate the truth, to see the truth under the mask.

There are many smooth people in the world, but very few stand out. And often stand out and hide under the meanness and madness.

In form we cannot fight with the established worldly, but in our hearts we are all our own kings.

If there is a flattering smile on your face, I will hide my face in shame.

Many worldly things are dazzling but worthless, do not put yourself on the balance of the masses, or you will be at a loss as to what to do and follow others.

In the specific life, I hope you will not interrupt other people's conversation, do not be very delicate.

You should set aside at least two hours a day to read books and write back to your friends.

Don't always think about what others should do for you, but think about how to help others.

Pay back what you borrow from others, and don't casually accept favors from others.

Remember that other people's things, no matter how good, are other people's; things of your own, no matter how bad, are your own.

Son, there is another thing, although it is difficult to do, but it is very important, which is to have the courage to face your shortcomings squarely.

You will grow up year by year, and you will gradually meet people who are better and better than you, and you will find that you have many shortcomings that you hate.

This will make you depressed and inferior.

But you must face it squarely, don't avoid it, and correct it bit by bit.

It is more difficult and meaningful to conquer yourself than to conquer others.

No matter how the trend of the world changes, the good qualities of people are eternal: integrity, bravery and independence.

I hope you are an excellent person.
