Occasionally, I will write some ancient poetry to enjoy myself, but I know I don’t have a high level of writing them. It is just for fun. As far as I know, I think two people are good at writing ancient poetry. One is my colleague, and I only read two poems by him. Another is a young man from my former work unit, and I also only read two or three poems of him. I don’t know how to describe how good their poems are. However, I am not a poetry critic, but the feelings told me, which are called talent. So I wrote the words “Only after working hard do you know what talent is. ” l feel that no matter how I try my best, I will not write as well as they do. If some people are better at some fields than me, I always admit it. Don’t cheat others, but also don’t deceive yourself.

Occasionally, I will write some ancient poetryms to enjoyamuse myself, but I know I don’t have a high level of writing them.even though I know my writing level for ancient poetry is not high enough.

You do not ever want to say "to enjoy myself", because in vernacular American English, that means something sexual.

It is just for fun.

I don't understand what you mean by "don't cheat others?" Perhaps cheating is not what you mean to say??

Don’t cheat others, but also don’t deceive yourself.

I mean that is a rule for me as a person. Don’t cheat other people and also don’t cheat yourself. Someone is better than you and you don’t admit the fact so you are cheating your self. You are very stupid. I don’t know if I made myself clear.

I almost feel that based on what you wrote regarding other people's talent, what you really meant to say is don't envy other people, rather than don't cheat other people. Cheating generally means that you do something illegal or wrong to gain success. When you cheat other people, it is more like a card game and you swapped a jack for an ace. Does that make sense?

Yes. It makes sense. Because I am still at a low English level, I often can’t express my words accurately.

There is a good app called "Pleco" that translates from Chinese to English and vice versa. My son uses it and really liked it.
