Chapter 720: Spring, because of you

Spring, because of you...

February 27: Spring, because of you…

Winter finally slipped away quietly――――those past pains, those former pains.

"But those past pains, those former aches, are also footprints; how can you still not understand?" my spirit admonished me.

On the journey, when the fine rain drizzled, many flowers bloomed in the drizzling fine rain. On these days of blossoming, I wished to turn past pain into present joy.

O world, you have already given me much. For this spring, world, please give me a little more—some floral scent, some green leaves; especially some time and fruit.

The world remains silent.

The silent world hushed in a small stream; my waiting still followed the stream, singing as I went forward. Actually I did not know whether the road ahead was plain or mountain; I only knew I followed time and ages forward, forward, forward…….

Am I forever a traveler, must I go on?

No one answered my words. I continued to walk forward in silence.

A dove called in the sky, and I knew it was an angel guiding my path.

O world, on this spring morning I saw many flowers bloom. How beautiful they are, like my former youth……..

"Great time, is life truly like a dewdrop on a summer lotus leaf?"

Because of my foolish question, no one in the world answered my words.

I still followed the stream――――the spring's stream, moving forward silently, forward, forward, forward………….

O traveler, must you go on?

Yes, I must go on…………..
