WEDDING!

婚礼!




Yes! People spend a lot and consider it to be the most important part of their life! I don't know why!

是的!人们总是在婚礼上花很多钱而且认为这是他们人生最重要的部分!不知道为什么!


Work hard your asses off for nearly 30 years and spend 75% of your savings on your daughter's wedding! Heaven forbid, what for? Just to show those people who don't give a fuck about you,  your spendings? Work entire life for this ONE day? Sacrifice everything, all your more significant wishes for this ONE particular day?

你做牛做马辛苦工作将近三十年然后把你75%的积蓄花在你女儿的婚礼上!天理难容,为了啥?就为了给那些并不在乎你的人展示你的积蓄?工作一辈子就为了这一天?牺牲所有事物、所有更重要的愿望就为了这特别的一天?


Well, it's high time we change our sick minds! Instead go, do charity to please your soul! Go travel the world with your family! Enjoy your life to the fullest because life happens only once!

好吧,现在是时候改变我们错误的观念了!去做慈善满足你们的心灵吧!去和家人一起去周游世界吧!尽情的享受你的生活,因为人生只有一次!
