"如果你任由它，世界会把你的心削成一根牙签；秘诀是不让它得逞。"
— Maggie Smith
Simplified Meaning:
Life can be tough and sometimes challenges can wear you down, making you feel small and weak. Think of your heart as a strong, big piece of wood. If you let every problem and bad experience get to you, it’s like someone slowly carving away at that wood until there’s almost nothing left, like a tiny toothpick. For example, imagine you’re passionate about painting but people keep criticizing your work. If you let their words affect you too much, you might stop painting altogether and lose your joy. Instead, remember that you control how much you let these things affect you. Stay strong and keep doing what makes you happy and fulfilled. The key is to protect your heart by staying positive and determined, even when things get hard. This way, you won't lose who you are or what you love despite any challenges you might face.
