Wen Hengyuan is very good at answering questions.
In math competitions, if the conditions are written on paper and the auxiliary lines are drawn correctly, the answer can always be found step by step.
But liking someone is not like that.
When he was a teenager, he liked a girl. I remember her ID number, her profile picture that faded and then lit up, and I read and analyzed the few sentences she sent me many times. On that snowy day, even though he was traveling on a different road than her, he said without changing his face: "We're on our way."
He thought he was serious enough.
Later he met Wen Wanyu. Study together, eat together, fall in love, live in long distances, and put each other into the future little by little.
When she encounters a problem, he analyzes it carefully; when she encounters a setback, he lists out solutions; when she suddenly becomes unhappy, he reads the chat history three times, but he still can't find where he got the answer wrong.
It took Wen Hengyuan many years to discover that the most important questions in life never completely write down the conditions on paper.
A person who is good at solving problems slowly learns how to like a person's story.
Purpose: Growth is not about finding all the answers, but learning to understand others and yourself, and make your own choices in a life where there are no standard answers.
