――Liu Guozong Spring Diary thirty-five

A poet said:

Thus, we keep walking forward in the world――

"Some people――

walk with their left leg

"Some people――

walk with their right leg

"Some people――

walk in a straight line

"Some people――

walk in a curve

Some people keep walking

and end up far away

Some people remain in place

step, step

Those who walk far away, some no longer recognize themselves, some lose themselves,

some even want to regain their former selves,

even wanting to walk back to where they started;

Those who stay in place,

some feel ashamed,

some feel regret

…………

Walking in the bustling crowd, I saw some people praising life, some cursing life;

Some people sing in the sunlight, some weep in the sunlight;

Some people chat, some labor;

Some people hide their faces with broken hats as they pass through the bustling market, some vie for fame and profit, wielding power;

Some people are in love, some are divorcing;

Some people wear spring clothes in winter, and some men wear women's clothes;

Some people engage in deceit and fraud, some selflessly devote themselves;

Some people deceive the world and steal fame, hiding their actions, while some openly and honestly conduct themselves……

…………….

I remain the same as before, keeping a detached yet close relationship with the world, either smoking or drinking; either sweating like rain, or sitting beside friends chatting;

Sometimes I feel self-satisfied and complacent, sometimes I blame heaven and earth, resenting fate's injustice;

Sometimes I feel like a snail among the crowd, sometimes I feel

like a

free-flying bird in the sky…
