3. Do Not Fear -- Do Not Regret

Once upon a time, in a remote village, lived a young man who had a wish to travel down town to have a better life. Upon leaving, he encountered fear, worry and doubt. To encourage his intention to leave the village, he went to see one of the elderly figures in the village, both to say goodbye and seek for guidance. Having heard his intention, the elderly happily said, "My son, this life's secret only consists of six words. And today i will only give you half of them." And then he wrote down three words.
BU YAO PA, meaning Do Not Fear!!

Time passed quickly, 30 years had passed. The young man had come down with the ups and downs of life. By having these 3 wise words "DO NOT FEAR", he faced all chaces as well as challenges bravely. Through that kind of magnificient mentality, he did change his destiny. Then he turned into one of the most successful and honorable citizens in the country.
Yet, with all the success he already had, he still felt there was something imperfect and he came down to regret why he could not solve it. He tried hard to work it out, but his mind got even more messed up and unfocused. In the doubtful condition, he remembered the elderly who had given him the three wise words. "Didn't he still have the rest of the three words that he promised to give out to me?"
And then he decided to go back to his village to see the elderly man to ask for the remaining three words. Unfortunately, as he got there he found the wise man had passed away. However, there was a letter addressed to him. Apparently the old man had predicted that one day he would come back. He ripped the letter as fast as he could and there were the rest of the three words that he was looking for there:
BU HOU HUI, meaning Do Not Regret!!
As soon as he saw those words, spontaneously all the regrets that had been hovering him disappeared. He felt very relieved and happy immediately.
