Chapter 13
Yuwo an' Mek-suh-mus
Original
何谓宠辱若惊？宠为下，得之若惊，失之若惊，是谓宠辱若惊。
何谓贵大患若身？吾所以有大患者，为吾有身，及吾无身，吾有何患？
故贵以身为天下，若可寄天下；爱以身为天下，若可托天下。

Wah dis chaptа bout?
Dis chapter taak bout how praise an' shame bump up we like a shock, an' how all di big sufferin' we feel come caze a we body. When we get mek-suh-mus, we shock. When we lose it, we shock. An' all a caze we body, caze if wi neva have no body, wi COULDn have no sufferin'.
How it relate to me?
Mi feel how di approval from people can mek mi jump up an' di rejection can mek mi sad. Mi notice sey when mi too focus pon me body, pon me comfort, dat i mek mi worry plenty. Di more mi pree pon mek-suh-mus from other people, di more mi lose me peace. Mi need fi remember sey wi all mus learn fi live ya so-free from all a we body need an' want.
Wah mi fi do todeh?
Today, mi mus watch how mi respond when people mek-suh-mus mi or taak bout mi. Instead a leh it shock mi, mi mus breathe an' remember sey approval an' disrespect come an' go like di tide. Mi mus find peace ya within, no matta wa people sey or do.
