Time is a wheel, cold and summer come and go, go around, but inadvertently smooth people's edges and corners. Suddenly, I was surprised that I had reached middle age. All the frivolity of youth turned into a glass of wine and condensed into the past. Teenagers listen to the rain song upstairs, adults listen to the rain in the passenger boat, and in the twilight years listen to the rain under the monk's house.

When I was young, I didn't understand human and worldly wisdom, so I wantonly sprinkled my youth, coveted the world of mortals, hurt others and was hurt by others; In his prime, he went out and was busy for life. He learned to cherish and be strong in stumbling; When you get old and go through the difficulties of the world, you can slowly understand life and learn compassion. A raindrop is also a lifetime. The ultimate simplicity is beauty. The older you live, the more you understand, the more straight you suffer, the more angry you are, and the more you hurt yourself. People are impetuous. Too many people live in their own world and can't listen to other people's words. If you get angry first, you will be caught by others. People's hearts are vain and have to be well evaluated. If you don't know how to decorate and euphemism, you can judge others at will, which will eventually lead to unhappiness.

People live in the world, do not need to be urgent or too hard, learn to be soft, learn to be quiet, in order to show the nobility of character and enjoy the beauty of the world. Sometimes you feel that you have seen through everything, but you should know that you can never guess through the hearts of the people. Society is cruel and complicated. There are always things you can't imagine. It is never too old to learn modesty. People in this life, can not see, can not think, only indifferent. If the edge is too exposed, it is easy to be suppressed. If the ears of rice are too heavy, it is easy to bend over. Don't rush to show the truth. Think for ten seconds before you speak. If you are too smart, you will be jealous and framed. Modesty is a virtue, and pretending to be confused is wisdom. Learn to put down and step back. Let go is freedom, take a step back, the sea and the sky are vast.

The reason why people worry too much is that they persist too much and want too much. Desire will only destroy your steady pace and make you lose your original self. Time cannot be traced. The most important thing is the process, not the result. Many things are lost when they are lost, as long as they have been owned. When you're tired, stop and have a rest. Don't hold on if you can't go on. You can still earn money if you don't have money. As long as you live, you have a chance.

Life in the world, nothing can buy health and happiness. Look down on everything, look away from everything. It's better to be alone in heaven and earth than to be intoxicated with money and colorful noise. Light to the extreme is absolutely beautiful, open to the new world. Don't care about other people's opinions, just follow your inner thoughts. Happiness is a day. People's final destination is themselves, which is more important and which is more important. Don't be sad because you are old, don't be melancholy because of gain and loss, eat hungry, sleep sleepy, read when you are confused, and do the simplest things well, you will learn to really live.

Dear yourself, don't be afraid of suffering and loneliness. Life is about yourself and your own cultivation. You will eventually meet your best self and get the best warmth and happiness. Only those who cherish happiness can be happy. Those who have love in their hearts will be loved. Every kind-hearted person will be treated gently by the world. Live seriously and bloom quietly. Time is like water, silence is great beauty. Days are like lotus, ordinary is elegant.

To the aging self, we begin to become afraid, but we don't know what we're afraid of. It seems that we haven't lost anything, but it's like we have nothing left.

In fact, we can still be very good, even if we are just a person, we can still adhere to our own persistence, choose our own choice and do what we want to do. Watch your favorite movies, listen to your favorite songs, love the people you love, and pursue everything we want, but we don't give up easily. We can't give up.

To myself who is getting old, I want to start a long journey and may be accompanied by you, but I may be alone. I still have to go my own way and realize my dream by myself, but I still hope to be accompanied by you.

When I finally see the quiet side of myself, maybe I'm really getting old. Maybe I've just become mature, but I'm one step closer to death and the day we're separated is getting closer and closer. But now I don't know where you are. What you like may not be eternal, and what you want to cherish may not belong to you. What you accompany you to the end may not be what you really appreciate, but what you like will not disappear, and you are afraid that you will not have it. Are we getting old and becoming very greedy and greedy, and want to have the whole world?
