Face's Face Value

Some say that the factors determining one's life

are in the following priority: 

First: Inborn Fate (Gene)

Second: Life Encounters

Third:  Feng Shui (Environment)

Fourth: Good Deed Performance 

Fifth: Studying

Inborn fate surely includes your inborn face!

With a good-looking face forming 

part of your good fate, 
your life and living are positively determined, 
even if you do not study hard to equip yourself 

with necessary knowledge/qualifications 

for work and living!
  
Without a good looking face, 
you need to struggle hard to 
pursue the second to fifth factors above 
to turn your life better on. 
Such hard struggle makes you
both physically and physiologically exhausted 
and give you an even worse look!

Yet, though a good looking face contributes 
much to your good life,
it is not quite necessary to get
a 120% extra-good looking face,
it will invite lots of jealousy and troubles
if you are too beautiful / handsome!

As you must have a good fate before 
you can have a good face, 
thus just a slightly good looking face is OK 
to help you well to survive. 

Chinese Version

一命

二運

三風水

四積陰德

五讀書

一命當然包括樣貌啦！

有個好樣，
已經大致決定了人生的走勢！
就算五讀書（唔讀書），
人生也未必不濟！

無個好樣，

就要努力做好二三四五項！
如此努力，好辛苦啫！
個樣捱得又殘多一點點呢！ 

不過，也不必１２０％超好樣，靚爆鏡！
因為會招惹很多妒忌的！

既然命中註定，

少少靚就夠！

Carole King - Beautiful

You got to get up every morning 

with a smile on your face

And show the world all the love in your heart

Then people gonna treat you better

You're gonna find, yes, you will

That you're beautiful as you feel

Waiting at the station 

with a workday wind a-blowing

I've got nothing to do but 

watch the passers-by

Mirrored in their faces, 

I see frustration growing

And they don't see it showing, 

why do I?

You got to get up every morning 

with a smile on your face

And show the world all the love in your heart

Then people gonna treat you better

You're gonna find, yes, you will

That you're beautiful as you feel

I have often asked myself 

the reason for the sadness

In a world where tears are just a lullaby

If there's any answer, 

maybe love can end the madness

Maybe not, oh, but we can only try

You got to get up every morning 

with a smile on your face

And show the world all the love in your heart

Then people gonna treat you better

You're gonna find, yes you will

That you're beautiful

You're beautiful

You're beautiful as you feel
