《The symbolism of five koi - The five blessings》, painted by Dawnxisoul393

Five beautiful koi swim towards us, carrying five symbols of health, wisdom, brilliant career, love, and abundance. The positive energy of the five koi will infuse our body and soul, telling us that nothing is better than a healthy life and nothing is more important than a healthy body. Health is the foundation of everything and is the resource that supports our daily activities. A healthy lifestyle provides the physical and spiritual energy to lead us into a life of meaning and prosperity. The symbolism of five reminds us that our life behaviors, attitudes, and environment will determine our longevity.

"Take advantage of the limited youth, to learn infinite wisdom", illustrated by dawnxisoul393

Regular exercise, healthy eating habits, adequate sleep, and stress relief, all of these will help us improve our life quality. Youth is limited, wisdom is infinite, take advantage of the limited youth, to learn infinite wisdom. Only when we keep learning we can create a better career. It is wisdom that creates miracles. It is wisdom that makes our life and studies more convenient and beautiful. Wisdom is an experience, an ability, and a state. It is hidden in our brain, as long as we make good use of it, we will walk out of a broad road to achieve an ideal life.

It's just like a career, which has been pursued and strived without complaint. No matter success or failure, it is the condensation of life experience. The result is not very important. The key is to enrich your mind in the process of struggle. It's just like on the sports field, some people are obviously behind others, but still struggle to move forward, because he knows that the person who runs fast at the beginning may not win, but as long as he continues to run, he will have a chance to win, but if he gives up, he can only lose. He also knows that the important thing is not to win but to pursue the process of victory, which is a kind of permanent experience.

"Love is the softest and most vulnerable part of our hearts", illustrated by dawnxisoul393

Love is the softest and most vulnerable part of our hearts. Five koi fishes are telling us that true love is not the impulse of passion, sweet love warms our daily life. When we are seen, heard, and cared for by our partners, love exists. When we share and participate in a lively, open, and new life, love will flourish. When we look at things from each other's perspectives, love will ignite a flame. Only after experiencing, we can know how wonderful love is, what we have experienced, and what we have missed.

Five koi fishes also bring us wealth. The richest people are economically free because wealth does not mean having as much material as possible, but having what we need. When we don't work or lose our jobs, we don't have to worry about money. Our passive income enables us to maintain a decent life. We can have enough money and time to do what we really want to do. A real financial free person should be one who has both money and leisure and keeps an ordinary free heart. Do not have to work for money, keep a certain amount of net assets, or realize financial freedom.

"Enjoy the peace and love of our lives today", illustrated by dawnxisoul393

The starting point of life is very beautiful, because it breeds hope, and the ending point is also very beautiful because it means success. What is life pursuing? Is it the final result? The pursuit of life is not the final result, should be in the memory of the past, with no regrets, in the life of the runway to do our best, take responsibility, and do the right things. Savor each process, we will taste a sweet, a bitter, more of course, wonderful. Embrace all the good things in life and move forward with confidence. Enjoy the peace and love of our lives today!
