I never stop moving forward, yet I'm always a step behind.
We always use habitual thinking to perceive and view the people and things around us, replacing rational thinking with immediate emotions. Both sides express and convey their feelings in their usual way, but ignore whether the other party truly accepts this way.
It seems that children find it hard to grow up to be what their parents expect, and parents also fail to meet the perfect standards in their children's minds. The emptiness in this process is filled with all kinds of misunderstandings and misinterpretations, as well as the trivialities of life. In the end, the closest people gradually went their separate ways. By the time they woke up and finally reconciled, they were no longer there.
It seems that apart from life and death, everything else is trivial. That's true, but who isn't in a hurry when encountering trivial matters other than life and death? I always feel that if this matter doesn't work out, life will be much dimmer. The matters at hand are the real big deal. Life and death are still far away. There's no time to think.
Isn't life just like this? There's no perfection, no invariance. We seek joy in tough times and keep moving forward amid constant gains and losses.
