Yue Lao Fortune Poems - Eighty-fourth Fortune Stick - Interpreting
Average
Advise you not to cherish golden robes,
Advise you to cherish your youthful times.
When flowers bloom, they should be picked immediately,
Do not wait until there are no flowers to pick only branches.
In your current situation, do not cherish golden robes, but cherish your youthful times. Youth is fleeting and should not be wasted. Make the most of opportunities. When flowers bloom, pick them immediately; when there are no flowers, picking branches is useless. Seize the moment and do not waste your youth.
