I have always believed that letters can convey emotions. Moreover, I personally love receiving letters. Those letters, carefully sorted and stored by year, are my treasured possessions.
There are many things in life that we may never obtain, yet their absence does not necessarily bring regret. Some things are once possessed but later lost, which can be painful. However, if we have tried and strived before losing them, even regret can be accepted with peace.
People are often sad because their perspective is too limited. Before the future arrives, how can we be sure that present difficulties are not opportunities in disguise? One should always look forward. In relationships especially, there is no need to dwell on right or wrong, as such distinctions often do not truly exist.
Life is not a mountain, yet it requires climbing; it is not a abyss, yet it requires us to cross our own narrowness and ignorance. We should learn to forget what once belonged to the past, cherish what we already have, and not cling too tightly to anything, as nothing is permanent. When tired, learn to rest; when hurt, learn to let go; when wounded, learn to be stronger. Regardless of yesterday, today, or tomorrow, as long as we can find clarity and peace, every day is a good day.
Human beings live within hope. When old hopes are fulfilled or vanish, new hopes arise. If a person lives without any hope, merely passing time day by day, then in essence their life has already stopped.
Life is like a parabola; the downward arc is also exhausting. The sun sets when it must set—this is the law of nature. The same is true for life’s rise and fall. My understanding of history and life is to make this downward trajectory as complete and peaceful as possible.
