4 Essential Chinese Conjunctions: If, Only if, Even if, As long as

Hey guys.😎 Today I'm gonna talk about 保重. It's such a sooo meaningful word in Chinese.
Hi, 朋友们。😎今天想跟大家聊聊中文里“保重”这个非常有含义的词。它可是中文的其中一个精髓，看似简单，但意味深长！

Different meanings of 保重 that you MUST know!

我们来看看道德经的第二章。

天下皆知美之为美，斯恶已；皆知善之为善，斯不善矣。有无相生，难易相成，长短相形，高下相盈，音声相和，前后相随。是以圣人处无为之事，行不言之教。万物作，焉而弗辞，生而弗有，为而弗恃，功成而弗居。夫唯弗居，是以不去。

根据老子的思想，万物都是相对的。比如美和丑，善和恶，长和短，有和无。他们互相对立，也互相依赖。If the beauty is everywhere, no one will see it as beautiful anymore. So we shouldn’t push too hard on the things we cannot control. For example, if all the girls do the plastic surgery to become a standard beauty, there would be no one considered beautiful, because everyone is the same. Diversity is beautiful. 所以，老子说，我们要随万物生长而不去限制和控制，这样的无为，也就是不去做一些事，符合道。放下了强烈的我执，有时候选择不去做一些事，比去做还要困难。但是很多情况下，无为，不去做，才是智慧。 

感谢收听，下次见~
