The Years Are Calm

Many truths can only be understood when you grow up. At that time, I was in my youth, and I thought that I was very close to the end of my struggle. It seemed that as soon as I passed the college entrance examination, a new future would immediately appear in front of me. Later, looking back, across the narrow river of time, we seemed to be still in the same place at that time. All the traces of the past have been erased, and the years are still calm.
