On the first day of the first month, its name is New Year's Day.
It was a somewhat drowsy morning, years of habit made me wake up at dawn, years of rhinitis made me dizzy. It's a little hazy outside, but the home is still warm and bright.
Writing this, I myself realized that it was a symbol, an unpredictable future on the outside and a comfort zone at home. I'm sure that's true as well. My eyesight is not bad, and the winter mornings are not bitterly cold and there is always an abundance of moisture, which either condenses into frost, or condenses into dew, or returns to the earth. In the early morning when the sun has not come, hazy is the main tone of the morning.
How many winter mornings have I gotten up in the dark to rush to school, and how many dark evenings have I dropped off my students and turned on the car lights. How many days, I have neither been able to meet the sunrise, nor have I been able to send away the sunset, both ends are black, just like my life path, I came from **, and then to**go?
I came from my mother's womb, there is no doubt about it, and it is an indisputable fact that I will die. But the higher question is, "I" come from **?This self-consciousness that has not changed for many years outside the physical body comes from **?When the flesh decays, or the smoke dies out, does "I" disappear, or does it go?
The answers to all these questions are also in the maki.
But I can be sure that whatever can be put down is not in the obscurity;Anything that is persistent increases the haze of life.
The sky is getting brighter, and the dawn is getting brighter. The things of the world are all changing gradually, the white dew is frost, the leaves are withered, birth, old age, sickness and death, and the life is bad and empty. Even the rare moon, the colorful clouds that are easy to disperse, are all born gradually and gradually disappear.
Gradually, my stomach was hungry, my wife and children woke up, and it was time for me to cook. I can still decide what to eat this morning. What I should do, think, and change this year, I should also take the initiative. Things are man-made, not everything is fate, and the change of the status quo still depends on one's own efforts. When I thought about it, I suddenly opened up, the environment was created by the heart, and the sea and the sky were wide.
When I looked up, the sun was just right, warming the earth.
