PhoEnix's Comments:

I like these phrase mentioned in the drama. Very meaningful!

就这么想吧！ 每当有不如意的事情， 无论你有多么的努力， 但事情似乎没有转机时， 就当这是上天赐给你的一个长假。 在这段时间里， 可以乘机放松自己， 好好关心自己身边的人与事。 上天自会安排一切。 等这段假期过后， 即会出现人生的转变。。。

Roughly Translated: Just think it this way: Whenever there are some obtacles in your life, and you have tried very hard to overcome it, yet there seems to be no hope, just treat it as a gift from God to let you have a long vacation. During this period, you can relax yourself, and truly pay attention to the persons and things around you. God will arrange everything. After the vacation, there will be a new life lying ahead...
