线(句子)

收集了一些自己很喜欢或者很受启发的句子,在以后表达中可以有意识的应用,增加表达的色彩和亮点。

-  And so when you eat better, you feel better. Over these past few years, I've noticed that my weight has stabilized, I have more energy, I need less sleep, and when you're eating better, and you feel better, and you save money, you're happier.

- I live a zero waste lifestyle, because to me, it's the best way I know, how to live a life that aligns with everything that I believe in. And what's the point. Right? I'm just one person. What difference can I make? The point is simple: I want to be remembered for the things that I did while I was on this planet, and not for the trash that I left behind.
