People find contentment
Whether a person's situation is painful or joyful is often subjective.Some people find contentment in a certain lifestyle, while others do not. Therefore, those who are content with their current situation should continue living that way; those who are not should strive to find another path. You cannot predict where success lies, nor can you guarantee happiness once you reach a certain point. Some people are never satisfied, their happiness based solely on constant pursuit and striving, their goals constantly moving further and further away. Such people may experience little happiness, but their achievements may be great.
Happiness and sorrow are entirely determined by one's own judgment and are not necessarily directly related to objective circumstances. Just as a woman who dislikes jewelry will not be harmed by her self-esteem even in an environment where vanity is highly valued; a poor scholar with thousands of books will not want to exchange them for diamonds or stocks with a millionaire; and those content with a pastoral life will not envy any scholar's honorary titles or high official positions.
Your hobbies are your direction, your interests are your capital, and your temperament is your destiny. Everyone has his or her own ideal paradise and a colorful world that he or she enjoys.
一個人的處境是苦是樂常是主觀的。
有人安於某種生活，有人不能。因此，能安於自已目前處境的，不妨就如此生活下去；不能的只好努力另找出路。你無法斷言哪裡才是成功的，也無法肯定當自已到達了某一點之後，會不會快樂。有些人永遠不會感到滿足，他的快樂只建立在不斷地追求與爭取的過程之中，因此他的目標不斷地向遠處推移。這種人的快樂可能少，但成就可能大。
苦樂全憑自已判斷，這和客觀環境不一定有直接關係。正如一個不愛珠寶的女人，即使置身在極度重視虛榮的環境下，也無傷她的自尊；擁有萬卷書的窮書生，並不想去和百萬富翁交換鑽石或股票；滿足於田園生活的人，也不艷羨慕任何學者的榮譽頭銜，或高官厚祿。
你的嗜好就是你的方向，你的興趣就是你的資本，你的性情就是你的命運。各人有各人理想的樂園，有自已所樂於安享的花花世界。
