SCMP Reporter

It is impossible to make everyone happy. Everyone around you is unique and has different opinions. If you try to make them all happy, you will surely fail.
You can only do one thing at a time, and no matter what you do or how you do it, somebody will feel that you did it wrong or could have done better.
When you try to please everyone, there is one person you will never please: yourself.
It's good to consider everyone's thoughts and opinions, but do not try to satisfy all of them all the time.
Penguin Wu
From the Editor
Thanks for your letter, Penguin. You make a very good point.
Some people think the only way to make friends is to agree with whatever other people say. They also think the only way to keep friends is to say things you think they want to hear.
But there is not enough time in life to care so much about other people's opinions. If people cannot accept you for what you honestly feel and believe, they are not worthy of your friendship.
There is a saying that goes: 'You can please some of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time'. However hard you try to impress, there will always be people who disagree with or disapprove of what you say or do.
The most important thing is to be true to yourself. While you should not pour scorn on other people's opinions, you should never be afraid to express your own.
When you find the courage to let other people know your true feelings, you will find that people will love you for who you truly are. And this will be the start of a meaningful, long-lasting relationship.
Karly, Sub-editor
