In the passage of time, everyone will experience a profound and solemn reflection on their own life, living, and existence. Such reflection is often meaningful and deeply moving, because the trajectory of life usually unfolds in a clear sequence—from beginning, through process, to ending. Those lives without clearly defined goals, those slightly heavy and bitter experiences of existence, often emerge at unexpected moments in a way that is awakening. The sudden arrival of middle age once again reminds us of the diminishing time we have, while also revealing the complex emotions and shared psychological experience of human life.
The only constant in the world is change itself.
Life is inherently cool and indifferent, so there is no need to expect too much from everything.
Growth always comes at a cost, and the greatest cost is often youth.
Humans cannot turn their heads backward, and thus cannot fully understand everything about themselves.
Love can dissolve language barriers, and emotion can transcend ethnic boundaries.
Life is not a landscape painting; it is not always bright and sunny.
Those who understand letting go often learn resilience through tears and gain composure through farewells.
Complaints are among the most genuine forms of human prayer and the most direct expression of emotion.
Sometimes, the benevolent are plotted against by petty people, the wise are excluded by the mediocre, the brave are envied by the foolish, and the honest are attacked by the greedy. When a little pressure makes one feel the sky is falling, or a small setback makes one feel like the most unfortunate person in the world, such fragility often stems from having once been overly protected and having others bear everything for them.
