not because they often fail

Because people think that that’s it

Of course not

Keep your resolutions

放轻松 慢慢来

Will you change?

Maybe

没准儿吧

But it probably won’t happen in one big moment

Every time you choose to forgive

or slow down, or be grateful

what’s right instead of what’s easy

that’s where the change happens

你就会在自己身上看到改变哦

Even if you fail one or two
