Collection of Steven's sayings

Many weibo and baidu fans and netizens have commented on how much Steven's sayings and introspective words have helped them to see things in a different perspective, lifted up their spirit when down, and  encouraged and inspired them when despair. I hope Steven knows that. I'll continue to compile his encouraging words and maxims under this category. Look them up when you are in need of some encouraging words to get you through the day or week, or to see things differently. I know I will keep them handy.  Some of the sayings are included for 'just because' . And Steven often accompanied his words with fitting images, an indication of his artistic and poetic nature.
Different Perspective
Doggie says: You think my expression looks very pitiful,
that's because you are viewing me from high above!
Why not try squatting down, the feeling will be different.

4/14/2014 08:40  If one has a dream but do not pursue, it will forever remain a daydream! Of course, in pursuit of one's dream, one must be prepared that efforts and rewards are often not proportional. But to courageously strive for it is by comparison more meaningful than to blame fate and everything else but oneself, even if in the end what is accomplished is not 100% but at least one has achieved more than just marking time! This is my current attitude in doing things, moreover, under the guidance of our Lord Jesus, it is enough we did our best, the rest leave it to the Lord to decide! Sharing! Grateful and praise the Lord!



Talk so boastfully? Why not do something epic;
So strong as to be invincible? Why not go forward to test the water;
Submerged in narcissism? Why not open window to gaze at daylight;*
Ignore what lies before your eyes? Why not face the reality .

When accusing someone is flawed, first make sure you yourself are not. Treat people decently is treating oneself decently. Giving another a road to walk is giving oneself a road too. Do not think you have the power to pass judgment over right or wrong. The pros and cons of right vs wrong, I will have my own conclusion. At least, I will not nor do I have the power to obliterate a person’s whole lifetime. As a person, be more compassionate is not asking too much. Wishing everybody happiness and peace. 8/9/2012 16:33

To troubled friends: if can’t go right go left then, 
In any case, there are many other roads to take. 
Don’t give up! Add oil! 8/17/2012 12:01

It is my habit to treat people with common courtesy. If you are rude I’ll leave.
I like to see people happy and also like to make myself happy.
I can give without regrets so long (you) do not deceive me.
I don’t ever scheme and hate being schemed against.
I’m very honest, sometimes brutally honest.
I love my home, love my family even more
I dislike people who only talk but do not walk the talk
I dislike people who lie
Hard for me to give up but even harder for me to turn back once given up
I greatly cherish the people I love
The one I love, will have happiness for sure
This is Scorpio 4th Brother

The journey of life is always capricious, sometimes cold sometimes warm, sometimes sunny sometimes rainy, even when the stride is stable and steady, a random astral gust of wind can upset the rhythm. Fall? No problem, stand up and continue to move forward. When one day the wound turns to scab, it will become the best proof of an unyielding perseverance. As for those occasional minor turbulences encountered in the journey of life, think of them as little tests before embracing the light. Dedicated to the one I'm fond of (疼) 9/22/2012 21:55

Can lose to ignorance, do not lose to intellect;
Can lose to malevolence, do not lose to injustice;
Can lose to reality, do not lose to conscience;
Can lose to helplessness, do not lose to humanness;
Can lose to naivety, do not lose to childlike innocence;
Can lose to life, do not lose to fate;
Can lose to agitation, do not lose to cool-headedness;

Can lose to luck, do not lose to effort;
Can lose to others, do not lose to self. 9/17 03:43

Steven ma 6/22 17:41 Maybe the worldly affairs seem to have become increasingly chaotic, but good people, good deeds that moved the hearts are still aplenty in the world. When contending against falsehoods and malevolence don’t forget at the same time to appreciate the beauty of the right path and decency. //@Fan 豆丁阿布Day5: Good people, they never live a peaceful life, but bad people are often better off than the good…heaven is so unfair. //Steven Ma 6/22 19:08 Don’t ever think that! Walk the right path, live the right way; don't doubt that. For once the heart starts to compare itself with the “bad and evil”, it's easily steered onto the crooked road. Don’t confuse yourself, understand?

Human relation, if willing to communicate many problems can be resolved.Don't always feel that other people are wrong and that you are right. If change position, the view seen will be different.  More empathy, more tolerance and consideration, the world will become even more beautiful.5/26 01:33

Since it's not a monstrous wrong, find an excuse for that person then. Curb one's anger at the same time let that person be able to get off the hook. Why pushed that person against a wall only to let him/her go afterwards? Truly no need for that. For everything, leave a space so that when next meet again will not be so awkward . Back and forth, to and fro, fate comes fate goes. Don't dare to say I could do it but my mindset has already veered towards that direction. Step by step, practicing to do just that. Friends, letting go will get back more in return. Tis' true. Mutual sharing. 5/21/2012 23:00

4th Brother's  Reflection on Fate (yuan)
Fate departs, feelings stay interlinked
Goodwill remains, brotherhood lasts
The beginning of the end always has a reason
Submit silently to heaven's plan
Together for long does not always end in parting
If have to part so be it if so fated.
Today, reluctantly have to part
Steadfast comradeship imprinted in the heart
The four cardinal corners are far apart
But who to say we'll not meet again
Wishing kin and kith all the best
Calmly waiting for the next reunion

Don't  demand a person to be too perfect that his/her strengths are inadvertently ignored; 
don't imagine oneself to be so perfect that one own flaws are inadvertently overlook.

 Life is hard and short, besides do good by family, do good by conscience and do good by heaven and earth, also must do good by yourself. If can, be nicer to yourself ba! 2011-12-19 



【Encounter】Left behind a burnt-like scar. Can't be erased, to forget is harder still!  Everything iron branded so deeply into the bone, cover with ice and snow, so hot it changed to tear stain. No need to interrogate, no need to search everywhere. Want to stay then stay; should leave then leave! Head lowered, silently awaiting the next encounter! 7/4/2011 22:51



Staring at the horizon, perhaps feeling the call from afar.  Sometimes, leaving behind a poignant, lingering flavor; when savored silently the little details tis' not hard to realize that it maybe better not to meet than to have met! Perhaps, this actually is not pining ... maybe more of a nostalgia or a remembrance!  So let's fantasize them, those bits and pieces, into a  shooting star so as to let it briefly flash by yet forever stored within the heart! 7/2 23:52

~4th Brother's Maxim~
Always say it is the fault of others, yet never contemplate their own lapses; 
Always envy the happiness of others, yet ignorant of their own blessings; 
Always sit there criticizing others, yet never put their words into action;
Always magnify their own pain, yet overlooking the suffering of others;
Always complain about worldly injustices, yet never look inward in self-reflection.
Please do not be such a person!  Mutual sharing. 6/22 00:28

 When lonely will say to you:  "Don't worry, I'll accompany you!"
When frightened will say to you: "Don't fear, I'm here!"
When lost will say to you: "Don't panic, follow me!"
When fallen will say to you: "Don't be scared, give me your hand!"
When helpless will say to you: "Don't cry, you can do it!"
Such a person, who's he/she to you? 6/30 23:19

Actually, as a person happy or unhappy still needs to live! Who doesn't have worries, no hardships?  Prone to grievances and resentments will only create hardship for self. Maybe some people would say: easier said than done.  True, action is undoubtedly difficult! But since already in pain, action, how difficult can it be?  Friends, don't over think.  Don't get mired in misery, don't wallow in self-pity! Wake up, gather up your courage, lift up your head puff out your chest, continue to walk!  Add oil! 6/20  00:10  
***


Why not smile?
 6/16 19:18  Friends asked me: Why always smiling?  Ho ho!  Actually unhappiness usually arises out of disappointment, which often came about because the wishful thinking or anticipated outcome did not pan out.  As a person, must maintain an optimistic and positive attitude, to be able to advance towards a goal is already without regrets. Why calculate the unforeseeable?  Second guessing this and that, why bother!  Just que sera sera  whatever will be,  will be, and be happy and at ease!   If not unhappy, then it is happy! that being the case, why not smile?
***
State of Mind
Your state of mind will invoke the kind of situations your encounter!
Remember to greet each day with positiveness and optimism!
Even during the occasional falls, don't be scared!
Get up, slap your hands, and continue to walk forward with a smile!
***

Truly, even if not destined to meet but together under the same sky, on the same earth, knowing that we live well, this is already a beautiful thing. Remember, strive to be a decent person; cherish your fortune and cherish your destiny of a good life. Live life well daily, don't squander our lives bestowed by our parents. Uphold your conscience, and be able lift up your head as a decent person.This, is 4th Brother's biggest expectation on you all.

The ending d of "Golden Light" also called 'the beginning' !

Even if the earth beneath our feet has dried up, 
if you keep the faith and go toward the light, water is just ahead.

Life journey is littered with choices a galore !  Among them, can be easy or difficult, can be right or wrong. But, so long they don't violate the laws or cause harm, or being immoral or unconscionable, why over think? When still have choices, why not follow the direction of your heart?  If it is unknown then don't think about it, because no matter how much you think there is still no answer; once you have made up your mind, don't worry about it again because if too worried can't move forward!  Actually who's scared of who?  When don't even have a choice to choose from, now that is scary.

The more sensible /responsible are generally more weary! heehee!***


 For people to be alive, to meet and be acquainted with each other is already an incredible predestined fate. To collaborate and even  become friends elevates the fate to a higher level! I hope that between people there is more concern and love, less calculation and suspicion, more understanding and tolerance, less biasness and hurtfulness...to be alive is already a great blessing, why not be nicer to other people?
 ***

Harming others to benefit self is selfish and mercenary, a dark side of a character, not desirable at all; harming others but not benefiting self is a vicious wickedness, an annihilation of character, totally wasted as a human. 
***
 I respect the freedom of speech and that no one has the right to deprive others of this birthright, but at the same time, I also believe that exercising this freedom in public forums comes with a 'responsibility'.  Some overly extreme, fabricated, or trolling postings, or news , I have no control over; but I constantly remind myself, words can save people but they can also insidiously harm people! I believe it is better to think clearly before acting!
***

Being alive, truly is not a matter of course... cherish the people around you!
***
Actually as a person it is better to be forthright. (upfront/candid/frank) Seen so many natural and man made disasters, avoid? That's not within humans' control! Rather than spending the days "heehee haha, spouting insincere words", why not treat people with sincerity; not even dare express what's in one's heart, really want to wait until caught between life and death to open up your heart? As a person, it is better to be sincere! (evoked by the Japanese earthquake)
***

 

There are many ways to relax.  
For me, one way is to see some cute photos that make me laugh, 
like this one....its 'back view' is so very cute!  haha!
 ***

 

Regarding human acts, there is no absolute right or absolute wrong.  Spanning these two are countless reasons!  It's not that doubts don't exist but that I believe whoever is more tolerant and understanding will naturally gain much more in the end. But at the same time must remind oneself to not view self as the sufferer or the victim.  On the contrary, you may be the perpetrator in other people's eyes! Don't say "easier said than done", I've always maintained the attitude of forgiveness first; there maybe losses, but for sure , the gains are more! Truly!
 ***

How to get along with people is an acquired knowledge! Justice/fairness; is not for you or he or she or I to decide alone, yet judgment always falls on the hands of certain people! Although these people may have the right to pass judgment (make decision), does it mean the judgment (decision) is fair and correct? Like Confucius said: "Virtue is not alone, it has neighbors!" 
*** 


  The world is not as small as you think, the problem is not as big as you think!  
Add oil, gather up your courage, go seek the road you want!  2/25 17:50
***

You may have more to offer, 
but I have so much more to give.

 Love and possession, they do not carry equal denotation! To me, the greatest and the most selfless love in the world is what Mr. Tang Jun Yi has defined as "Respectful love" (含敬的愛). I believe when truly love a person, everything is done with the loved one in mind!  Even if can't possess? Even if that person does not know?  So long the loved one lives a good life, lives happily, then oneself will live well and happily too! 2/20 00:31
 ***


True love will not be constrained by anything! Even if we are in different dimensions, so long that love still exists, the person you loved will be by your side....hasta la vista 7 Days in life!

Yik Jo On? Some scolded, but at the same time, many encouraged. Actually, I do not choose to portray only the righteous protagonists, sometimes, tired of it too! More to the point, the righteous protagonists are actually more difficult to portray! After all these years, I’m still not tired? Fibbing you la! But anyway, I’m willing to experiment. You all like? Then I’m willing! Thank you, Uncle Choi, thank you those who believe in me! I don’t have gold heaps and jade stacks! (gold/jade awards我沒有金堆玉砌) Perhaps ordinary, but in my ordinariness you get to see how I act, how I portray my character, how I perform in a series, what else could I ask for?  2011-2-17 23:58

Fly!  Soar towards your dream.  So long  it is faithful to your conscience, faithful to yourself, don't worry too much.  Go ahead! be indomitable,  soar with courage and confidence! 1/19 21:35

 I am a person who prefer to use written words to express my feelings. 
Hence, I am not very good at doing romantic stuff, but I can write them for you;
I am not very good at saying romantic words, but I can write them for you. 
So long as you like them,  I will write for you. 12/26 21:33

Don’t wait anymore for that person whom you did not value when he was still there.  If not so deeply wounded, he would not have left; since so deeply wounded, he will not turn back. 2010/12/20 19: 44

The efforts made even if did not get payback will leave behind marks. These marks will eventually lead you on the road of success.  Friends, do not be discouraged! Tired? Then close your eyes, take a deep breath, and slowly lift up your head and cast your eyes forward.  Believe in yourself, continue to work hard; the light is waiting not too far off from you! Go on! I will wish you well and will also root for you, add oil! 2010/12/19 19:25

Verify the direction, lock onto target, for the pursuit of ideals and aspirations, 
do not fear obstacles, advance bravely! Friends, strive hard, add oil, you are the best! 3, 2, 1 lift off!  12/18

A person’s lifetime on earth always has its own existence space and value.  Perhaps, you once were being doubted, bullied, slighted, even overlooked; but regardless, you are you, even though losing you will not change the world, but the world without you is without you because there is no one who can replace you.  Remember, people can look down on you but you must never look down on yourself because you are the only you in this world, priceless, and more so, one and the only one, definitely unique.

When you truly love a person, the reason for it simply can't be found. 
When you find the reason for your love, you will, at the same time, find the reason to not love. 12/16

  Falling in love with a person is destiny. To live a better life and to become a better person for the one you love is a privilege. This privilege will bring the person you love happiness; this privilege will enable the person you love to live a life of no regrets! 12/11 17:27

If suddenly lost the fighting spirit, the enthusiasm for anything, 
so weary don’t even have the strength to complain, 
then you truly need a good rest! Think happy thoughts, 
then sleep to your heart’s content! Friends, tomorrow will be better, ga yao! 12/10/2010

 Thinking of someone? Then don’t be too polite, 
go look up that person and tell that person: “I miss you!” 
Don’t worry too much, else will regret! 12/9

People, must be brave to overcome that first step of irresolution, only then can they see another piece of horizon.  The outside world is much bigger than what we envision.  Of course, people should not overestimate themselves, but more so, they should not underestimate themselves.  The road lies before you, if you have so decided, then gather up your  courage to walk forward, and don’t look back!  2010-12-1 23:18

收工回家,有點累,但還睡不著,也許狀態仍停留在工作中的亢奮吧!其實人生真的很有趣,當你愈在乎一些,你愈得不到那一些,反而處之泰然,得來會更多!所謂世事如棋,那來這麼容易猜透!結果?自有定數。想不通?不如不想,就抱著一個信念~人在做,天在看;多行善,別作惡!共勉之!2010-11-16 04:49


有些事、有些情,本可以好好的,可苦硬要把它變得如此可怖?你我他,各有前因莫羨人,簡單點,做好自己,用心做好每件事,對得住良心,那已足夠!從來結果都不在我們掌握之內,請別煩惱我們不能控制的,也別嘗試強行控制我們控制不來的,一切順其自然吧! 有時太使勁,反而傷人不利己,可苦呢?2010-11-10 19:39

Encouragement to high school students taking their exams. 
 6/6/2012 00:03 Road, it has never been easy to travel. Don't only see other people's accomplishment and neglect your own efforts. I have always believe that giving (tn:making the effort) may not always produce harvest but at least you have nothing to be ashamed of. Maybe right now you are still burning the midnight oil or you may have long fallen asleep, anyway, please remember a person's accomplishment is not solely measured by his/her education background. The yardstick is whether you had put in your best efforts or whether you had cherished your own self or that you had lived. Outcomes do not represent everything. Likewise, future prospect is not only found within the grade transcripts.  Those of you who are sitting for your high school government examination tomorrow, doing your best is good enough. Best wishes to you all.  

6/30/2011 15:59 Today is Hong Kong's college entrance examination (A-level) results day. I have this to say to all students pursuing higher education: If did well with good results, naturally worth celebrating! However, if the results are below expectation, please do not give up!  Exam results are only a small part of life; did your best, no regrets.  The road ahead is very long with lots of opportunities awaiting you all! Plan carefully with friends and family on what kind of future road to take! Remember, the road and the light lie just ahead, don't be disheartened, add oil!
