The most important thing right now is to tell yourself: I have rested enough. I have endured enough. Wipe away the tears, open your eyes wide — it’s time to start pushing forward.
From here on, I will rely on my own hard-earned abilities to claim the happiness and achievement I deserve from this world.
I am no less intelligent than others. I am no less capable. I will learn step by step, grow step by step, and build my strength step by step.
This Year of Yi Si is my new beginning. This year, the reversal of fortune — I’m claiming it as mine.
