On all of c-cassia jewelry we always say that they are made with 10% innocence, 30% sophistication, 60% cheerfulness. This comes from the maker who was known as the most innocent face on campus when she was a 16 years old freshman at a university with about 10,000 students in Shanghai. Now her friend said to her that you only have 10% innocence left. Well, many years have passed since she was the most innocent face; a guaranteed 10% innocence is not so bad? Isn’t it?
According to Wikipedia, innocence is a term used to indicate a general lack of guilt with respect to any kind of crime, sin or wrongding. Innocence can also refer to a state of unknowing, where one's experience is lesser. The reason I had the most innocent face probably is because I was a child in an adult world even though most of the adults were only 2 to 5 years older than me.
When one gains more experience, it is harder to keep oneself void of guilt with respect to sin or wrongdoing. That is why in my daily reminder number 6 is written “I have no remorse, or regrets over my own past mistakes. The past is simply written off, closed and forgotten.”
Happiness cannot be achieved if one is not void of guilt. Therefore, the 10% innocence and 60% cheerfulness are actually related. How much sophistication? You decide.
