恰好 林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體

過猶不及恰好難,胸有成竹遷就罕;
識情達理磨鍊來,面面俱到造作離。

舉止恰好匪易事,固執定見多偏差;
久經磨鍊方圓熟,自然圓滿離存心。

Just Right Yutang Lin

Overdone is as good as not enough, to be just right is difficult.
With fixed ideas in mind there is seldom any accommodation.
Recognizing feelings and abiding by reasons are born of trials.
All round approaches attained when artificial endeavors cease.

Comments:

Behaving appropriately is never an easy matter.
Grasping to fixed views causes much distortion.
Only through long experiences maturity gained.
Naturally perfect in the absence of predilection.
