Maturity comes from experiencing too much, gradually becoming more worldly, and still being able to keep smiling even when tears well up in your eyes.
Life is a lever, and faith is its "fulcrum". With this "fulcrum", there can be a continuously burning flame within the heart. For example, after suffering humiliation, Sima Qian devoted himself to writing and completed Records of the Grand Historian, which Lu Xun praised as "the masterpiece of historians, the unparalleled Song of Sorrow." The brave need perseverance and resistance. They grit their teeth and grow together with both storms and sunshine.
Eventually, we all grow up and gradually lose the innocence we once had.
When facing difficulties, it is precisely the moment to demonstrate your talents and abilities.
The attachment to the self is a shackle that binds us to suffering; when this attachment is released, true freedom and ease appear before us.
A person who has reached the state of "no-self" has already transcended anger, ignorance, jealousy, and delusional attachment. Such a person enjoys true happiness because the suffering of the world cannot harm a life that has let go of the self.
For the path we choose ourselves, the only direction is to keep moving forward; everything else is merely an illusion.
I possess my own blossoming and my own unique posture. I am no longer in a naive age, nor in a season of youthful dreams. The fleeting years have written a history of wandering and change. The flowing river of life, the journey of blooming and fading flowers, the storms and sunshine, the countless small moments, have blossomed into reeds and duckweed within my heart. Thoughts moving against the current drift with the wind, revealing the footprints of wasted time and the mottled scars of the past. Bit by bit, they blur the crystal tears in my eyes.
