In fact, none of us have suffered from suffering. We have only experienced some setbacks, disappointments, loneliness, helplessness, anxiety, and times when we were unable to reconcile with ourselves when we grew up. When one day we let go of the brute force in our hearts and ignore the purity of expectations, we slowly look up at the lush trees in a foreign land, slowly watch the warm sunset in our hometown, slowly take a sip of tea cooked by an old friend, slowly talk about gains and losses, slowly nod and smile at passers-by, slowly look at children, it's like yesterday's self, and quietly and slowly walked out of the siege door that had been blocked countless times in youth. That door turned out to be the nihilistic self, the invincible self, the god-like self, and the savior-like self. When surrounded by it, our physical body is so pessimistic, sighing at the misfortune of fate and half of it is wasted in vain. After stepping out of this door, our souls will definitely regain optimism. At least half of our lives will be left to start steadily, facing mature middle age with a simple, lovely, lively, kind and grateful attitude. Of course, maturity does not mean that we are old-fashioned, nor do we need to search the world for a book of answers to explain the happiness of middle age. Just treat the road between the age of twenty and forty as a postcard of the journey back, and those journeys will naturally become colorful pictures. If our hearts at forty are the same as our hearts at three, congratulations, a piece of candy is enough to make you and me happy.

Pick it up heavily and put it down gently. Don't regret your journey and don't be afraid of the road ahead.
The book contains too many memories of the post-80s generation who grew up in rural towns.
