January 15th: The Persistent Traveler
January 15th: The Persistent Journey
That day, sometimes overcast, sometimes clear, neither cold nor hot: 'The sun rises in the east while it rains in the west; they say there is no clear weather, yet there is still sunshine.'
Is this a kind of natural phenomenon?
Life is also like this―――― "I know your deeds; you are neither cold nor hot, I wish you were either cold or hot. Since you are like lukewarm water, neither cold nor hot, therefore I will spew you out of my mouth. You say: I am rich, have acquired wealth, lacking nothing; yet you do not know that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked."
Is that so? 'How can having wealth be wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked?'
Could it be wrong for us to desire wealth?
Are we just walking along like this, neither cold nor hot? In this lukewarm state, we are 'spewed out'.
This journey of life truly puts people in a dilemma, exceedingly difficult!
To avoid the tragedy of being 'spewed out' by life, we should still look forward to the milestone guided by truth and move ahead!
While we have not lost our memory, while life is still vibrant, 'go seek the lake of life'――――
"Road, road, the road is floating with red poppies"……….
Road, road, the road is full of Wind and Rain………………
Road, road, the road is covered with ice and snow…..
We are like lost sheep, on the journey to seek the lake of life, we need to eat grass, drink water, breathe fresh air, and appreciate the beautiful scenery along the way.
Time is pushing us to move forward! Otherwise we will be 'spewed out' by life.
We are also like a persistent journey: we love every stretch of scenery along the way, and will not retreat or hesitate due to wind, frost, rain, snow, ice, thunder, lightning, and waves on the journey.
Life is short, and spring in life is even shorter. The delicate flowers of spring bloom and then fall; could this flowering and falling also be an intentional arrangement by the heavens? A deliberate creation?
How laughable I am, again pondering this trivial matter. But I believe: 'Wise people warn me saying: life is merely a dewdrop on a lotus leaf'; but I also do not believe: 'How long is life, to enjoy wine and sing. For example, morning dew, the past days are full of suffering' that inevitable lament of flowers falling away!
Spring has already come, the flowers are ready to bloom; open the door, go walk my path!
Traveler, must you walk? Yes, I must walk!
Ha! Great time, great life!
Ah! The persistent journey proceeds……….
