This book tells the story of a group of people born in the 1980s, a group so young that no one knows who they are; but I believe that your shadow will always appear in their lives, because everyone has a youth, and everyone has their own unforgettable growth and hopes; the road of life is rugged and long, and one must personally experience the bitterness and sweetness of the world to know; whenever a watershed moment arrives in life, there are often only a few simple choices, love and hate and tolerance, dreams and reality, gradually passing through in the intertwining of pain and joy; when looking back, one realizes that the choices made have profoundly affected one's own life and the lives of others. Because of the convergence of time, and because of the departure of time, the entire time span is as long as 25 years, which also vaguely records the changes of the era behind it; there is love and hate in the world, and one knows the warmth and coldness of life; life has both calm waves and unexpected storms.
