In the first half of our life, we have been running hard. Even if the road under our feet is no longer difficult, we never give up, because we believe that poetry and distance lie ahead.
However, running and running, I tripped over a big stone and fell down. I finally struggled to get up and looked up. Oh, my God! Suddenly back before liberation, we suddenly realized that the first half of our life was poetry and distance, but unfortunately we didn't realize it and had been looking forward to it foolishly.
At this point, I can't help but think of the classic lines in A Chinese Odyssey, which are used here to express our regret for wasting our time:
Let's take a look at some treasures and see why our first half life has always been poetry and distance, but you and I have been left in our bones. What a pity.
? ? 0 1? Gains and losses of work
Many years ago, many of us had a stable and decent job, which we thought was a normal life. Even so, we often complain about many unsatisfactory jobs and fantasize about slamming the door and leaving people countless times, leaving a sentence: I quit. We always tell everyone that we are fried ants.
However, in 2020, it will live up to expectations. I think everyone knows how many people lost their jobs this year and their wages suddenly returned to graduation.
When we just graduated, we wore suits and ties, which were slightly childish and shuttled through the crowded labor market. Like slaughtered sheep, we are chosen by businessmen. However, we are not discouraged because we believe that the east is not bright and the west is bright.
Now, do we still have such ambitions? Throw in a resume, the stone sinks into the sea, and the door is empty. Occasionally, a few sparrows come to sniff. They are arrogant and biased, leaving our fragile and lonely hearts swaying in the wind and rain.
Looking back suddenly, the feeling of being baked is not so bad. This year, many people had to change careers and set foot in new fields because of their lives.
? ? 02? Retaliatory consumption
Before the outbreak, it is the first choice to buy healthy and organic food regardless of the price; Travel abroad every three to five times, bask in the beautiful photos of the beach and eat delicious food; It's generous to buy luxury goods occasionally.
After writing this, I consciously flipped through my circle of friends. It seems that these beautiful photos are rarely seen, replaced by WeChat business and various advertisements. No way, everyone is making bread money and has no time to refine Mito.
During the epidemic, we were locked at home, afraid to go shopping, had nowhere to eat, and our global tour plan was cancelled. We all think that "abstinence" is temporary. After the epidemic, desire will blow out and a wave of retaliatory consumption will come.
However, we are all wrong. Retaliatory consumption did not arrive as scheduled, but retaliatory deposits were fully utilized. Now it seems that Grandet is the product of the times.
A good friend of mine said that I used to buy a bag of 10 thousand yuan without blinking, but now I have to shop around the whole network to buy a bottle of yogurt. I said it wasn't that exaggerated, he said. Who dares to spend money in this situation?
In 2020, everyone will tighten their belts and wait and see the future development trend. Suddenly, they lost their free will.
? ? 03? Health is drifting away.
When we live comfortably, there is a wrinkle on our face, and we all try our best to smooth it. We have a white hair on our heads, and we will never be soft. We exercise every day, not only to have a good figure, but also to be healthy and win the rest of our lives.
However, now, there are so many anxieties around us that we have no intention to look in the mirror, let alone destroy them. When someone tells us that you have wrinkles and new white hair, let me pull it out for you. We frowned and said, no, it's okay.
Suddenly one day, when we looked in the mirror, we were startled to find that we were much older. At this time, we find that aging is instantaneous, not bit by bit, so we comfort ourselves that when we reach the corner of age, there will be signs of aging suddenly. We know that aging is like a project, and it is also a time-consuming node.
In the past, when we were healthy, we always thought that illness was someone else's business. Now we find that our bodies are constantly experiencing various discomforts, so we know it's time to exercise. However, we are dragged forward by life, and we have no intention of stopping to soak Lycium barbarum in a thermos cup. We can only watch it go from bad to worse.
So we always have a feeling of being busy with sudden death, and we have imagined that if we die suddenly, someone will live in our house and beat our children. However, this cruel assumption is not enough to awaken our self-destructive bodies.
Because we are busy, busy with work, busy with life, busy with children and too many things in our minds, how can we have time and mood to take care of our health? Then, we realized that health is like mud and sand, not as good as before.

Looking back on the past, our previous life was really a poem, a distance, but we turned a blind eye and always thought it was a chicken feather. So we have a good life, always thinking that the future can be expected and we can live the life we want.
However, the future is unknown, and you never know which will come first, tomorrow or accident. And today is tomorrow's poem and the distance?
What we can do now is to live up to yesterday, today and tomorrow by doing and cherishing!
