Don't let yesterday take up too much of today.

"Function precedes form in the study of consciousness."

【释义】圣人明白天道规律，顺应而不刻意行为；贤人知道灾祸的来源，心存警惕而不行欺诈；通达人明了命运的不可强求，不盲目追逐；诚信之人坚守信义，安静守护；仁者秉持仁德，廉洁谨慎；士人以德立身，谦虚恭敬；普通人理解道理，敬畏道义而不肆意妄为；愚人固守愚昧，不知避开灾祸；小人背离正道，终日急功近利扰乱自身。

I write to explore the boundaries of language.

"I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him."

The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today.
