Life will improve once it reaches a certain level of hardship, because it cannot get any worse. Many things will eventually pass as long as you persist. You may have struggled in search of love, only to find yourself troubled by the love you possess; you might be gently crushed by love, only to be intoxicated by the wine it brews. Life isn't inherently dull; it's just a lack of passion. Life isn't unremarkable; it's just a lack of effort. It's not about getting old, but about having outdated thinking. Stress is often self-imposed; when you are lost or facing hardship, ask yourself what you have laid the groundwork for and what you have accumulated for your life. An ideal without action is a mere fantasy, while action without an ideal is blind movement. Money cannot buy time, but time can be used to earn money. I have waited three years for this opportunity, not to prove I am better than others, but to prove that I must reclaim what is mine.
