Do not waste your true heart on vain calculations; only great virtue endures through the ages.
What is the true heart? It is pure goodness, unmoved yet responsive. If your heart is not truly kind, all efforts come to nothing.
Confucius and Mencius are remembered not for fame, but for their selfless dedication to future generations. They lived without ego, walking the path of virtue step by step.
Though we may not seek lasting renown, we should follow their example. Do not mistake the true heart for a scheming mind—such confusion leads only to delusion, suffering, and regret.
Act with virtue, speak with sincerity, and let your life be a quiet testament to goodness. That is the way to peace and lasting meaning.
