A sentence in the book "Skin" was like a lightning bolt in the night, instantly lighting up the confusion in my heart. It said: "When I can't stay up, I also want to find a backer to lean on, but no matter how I look for it, I will find that some mountains are full of thorns, and some mountains are full of wild beasts, so you should be your own mountain." This sentence is like a key that starts my journey of exploring the true meaning of life.
When we are in a difficult situation, when the pressure of life weighs us down like a boulder, we always yearn for a solid support to allow us to breathe temporarily. However, when we really look for it, we find that those seemingly solid reliance are actually full of unknown risks and dangers. Some mountains, which seem to be full of greenery, are overgrown with thorns, and if you are not careful, you will be stabbed all over the body; Some mountains, seemingly calm and serene, lurk with ferocious beasts that can become their prey if you are not careful.
In this uncertain world, the only thing we can really rely on is ourselves. We should be our own mountain, solid and steady, and we can maintain inner peace and steadfastness no matter how the external environment changes. Only in this way can we gain a foothold in the torrent of life and move forward steadily on the road of life.
If you also feel that life is difficult and confused, you might as well read the book "Skin". It reveals the truth of life and tells us the meaning of life in simple language. In fact, the meaning of life is not so complicated, nor is it so simple. It is in our daily life, in our every choice and persistence. As long as we feel and experience with our hearts, we can find the true meaning of life and find the value of life.
