Look at the Flowers, Look at the Trees, Look at Freedom

After Lu Chi, an urban white-collar worker, missed his promotion opportunity, he met an old man pruning flowers and trees on a park bench. The old man taught him to record the blooming time of each magnolia: "Some people urge it to bloom quickly, but I wait for it to decide on its own." Three years later, Lu Chi became the director of a documentary about plant slow growth. When his work won the award, he was squatting in the field to take pictures of moss. The smiling face of the old man suddenly appeared in the camera: "Look, it takes ten years for moss to grow into a carpet - everything in the world has its own timetable." Lu Chi chuckled. It turns out that freedom is not about chasing the sunrise, but about learning to squat down and watch how the dew condenses into pearls.
