本自简单,偏求复杂。
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.
— Confucius
【English explanation】
Confucius reminds us that life is inherently simple, yet we constantly overcomplicate it with worries, expectations, and artificial constructs. Simplicity is not ignorance—it is clarity achieved by removing unnecessary burdens. True wisdom lies in seeing through complexity to the essential truth.
【中文解读】
孔子提醒我们:生命本是简单的,但我们却不断用忧虑、期待和人为构造将其变得复杂。简单并非无知——它是通过去除不必要的负担而获得的清晰。真正的智慧在于穿透复杂,直达本质。
