If you were to describe Faye Wong, how would you describe her?

She is an ordinary person. She has a little talent and caught on during the right time so that she could use that talent to the fullest, therefore she is a lucky person. That’s how I see it. If she understands this clearly, she should be content with her limited ability. She should keep to herself, live her life well to understand her truth as much as possible, and avoid blathering and sharing those life insights with others. Give up preaching, give up looking like she can see beyond the facade, and never try to be outstanding. 

She loves to sing and she should sing freely, not with a sense of purpose. Music is not a weapon to use to conquer people. Don’t glorify it. Treat it as a toy. Don’t worry about the game, otherwise you’ll miss out on the fun of the toy. 

She should neither resist praise, nor take it to heart. If she encounters slander, it’s best to be indifferent and treat all kinds of comments equally.

If she is tired, she can give up. It’s okay to be reluctant to leave, but she shouldn’t be hurt by it. Don’t stick to the image, no matter what the so-called image has brought her. Be natural, not deliberate. 

Face the world in a daze, face herself perfectly straight. 

She should be able to love and not love normally. Never care about reputation, that kind of thing makes a person deeply hypocritical.  Before she surfaced, she struggled just like the rest of us. It’s not that she is more noble than others. She is merely not more despicable than others.
