Practice a Person

Tao Lixia

55K01

Whenever night falls, the quiet night dilutes the enthusiasm and busyness left during the day, and only then are we ready to meet the hidden self. Quiet and quiet, rich and full in solitude, this is an experience only those who understand the charm of solitude can have. The author takes the year of freedom and leisure in his life as a gift to himself. Stay away from the familiar and stable life and devote yourself to the things you like without any distractions. Face life alone, get along with yourself calmly, be quiet and free, return to your heart, and welcome the vast sea and sky of life with an upward attitude. Being alone is not only a choice, an ability, but also a way of life. Behind the excitement is endless silence, but through hard work and choices, we can make life as close as possible to what you imagined. Life is a process of constant pursuit and search, and then giving up one by one. No one lives as he pleases, and we will eventually learn to face loneliness. To practice one person, there is no need to wait for others to complete it.

The Tenderness of This Moment

Tao Lixia

69K01

Are what you have right now what you really need? The happiest thing in life is not finding people and things you can stay with for a long time, but meeting people and things you can't lose. The secret of life is just this. Those things that remain in your life in peace are what you want and are truly yours. Not necessarily much, but good. We are all making choices, but there are also shackles that we cannot get rid of. In the end, life is an explanation given by oneself. Walking through the colorful world, you can concentrate on facing the darkness and light within. Traveling through the desolation and chaos of the past, knowing how to end can also make a good start. At this moment, there are no regrets in life, neat and refreshing. It is the greatest freedom I can think of, and it is also the first tenderness I can give myself.

Travel Separately

Tao Lixia

105K02

I want to complete the trip you promised alone, and I want to see eternity for the two of us. At that moment I knew that I thought I would have endless words to say to you in this life, but it would be better to keep many words in my heart. It's hard to love someone, it's even harder not to love someone, and the hardest thing is to truly leave someone. I don't understand people's hearts, I don't understand time. So I can only travel far. Rome, London, North Germany, Ulaanbaatar, Lamu, Alag, Helsinki, Melbourne, Singapore, Texas, Nara, Jerusalem, Milan... On the way from one station to another, I began to have no doubt about my farewell in this world. When all the fragments gradually pieced together into the scenery seen by one person, I began to understand that walking so many roads was not to find you again, but to lose you. So, in front of the Wailing Wall, I said to all the gods in the world, let us be free. After going through these thousands of mountains and rivers, there is no need to look back.

Belated Confession

Tao Lixia

57K0

A new 2023 collection of essays by best-selling author, translator, and photographer Tao Lixia. Life, travel, and reading are eternal themes in Tao Lixia's works. The new work "Belated Confession" uses the three dimensions of life, travel and reading to write three chapters: "Life, so good", "Travel, the end of a long trip", "Reading, we have not become someone else". They are independent yet consistent with each other. They all express Tao Lixia's deeper experience and thinking about life. This is also the first time Tao Lixia's brand-new works have been compiled into a book in the past two years. Just like the title of the book "Belated Confession", this book is Tao Lixia's intimate confession of life. Even if we are not seen, we still have to shine. Our brilliance is a very quiet and private thing. There is tenderness, calmness, undercurrents, and sunshine in Tao Lixia's words. She tells us that some gains in life will come late, but they will always arrive.
