When my heart is hard and anxious, please shower me with kindness.
When life loses its grace, please give me a song of joy.
—— Tagore* "Gitanjali"
From 2000 to 2010, the first decade of the 21st century has passed.
The people born in the 1980s also grew up as teenagers,
I have become a hurried office worker every morning,
In 2012, the legendary year of destruction,
I suddenly wanted to write something to record the youthful years and growth trajectory of me and my peers.
It turns out that what I miss the most is always the first thing.
