All Are Lost in Laughter and Conversation

The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure turn around in vain. The green hills are still there, and the sunset turns red several times. The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter on the Nagisa River is used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. Happy reunion over a pot of wine. Many things in ancient and modern times are all talked about with laughter. Passing water, time is like water, old things are like water. It is not only the old time that has passed away, but also old things. The term "die" is extended to "break", which means to break or eliminate. What are old things? It can be a regime, a set of systems, an order, a group of people, etc. As there is death, destruction, and elimination, there is also birth, establishment, and replacement. Let's call it "replacement" in general (this is a story later). Change is a process. In this process, there will inevitably be exploration, pursuit, experimentation, and even confrontation, killing, and sacrifice. The process will not be completed until a new balance emerges. In the long history, there are too many such changes. Try to interpret the destruction and establishment in the cycle of history from the perspective of martial arts.
