There is joy in the ordinary; no need to chase perfection.
"Whatever is worth looking at gives joy; it needn't be strange or grand." Loveliness lies in the ordinary; no need for a perfect partner or a dramatic romance.
| Single | Don't demand perfection; ordinary people are lovable too. |
|---|---|
| Dating | Appreciate your partner's everyday virtues. |
| Married | Find joy in plain days together. |
From Su Shi's "Record of the Terrace of Transcendence": "All things have something worth seeing; whatever is worth seeing gives joy; it need not be strange or splendid." One who stands above things finds joy everywhere.
