Various flavors of youth

Taste or something, in fact, most people's youth is very bland, just a glass of boiled water. In elementary school, holding a small hand, smoking a small cigarette, and pretending to be a little blue, the difference is not big, that is, the shape of the cup is different.
But that is by no means the whole of boiled water. Some boiled water will also want to fly, fly out of the cup, fly out of the kettle, until it hits the blazing heat called a dream, the broken molecules are broken into molecules, evaporated into water vapor, and then condensed into raindrops , mixed with others, and eventually fell back to the earth. The whole process is sometimes astonishingly fast, and sometimes it takes a long time.
Of course, that is a description of the youth process in words, and the actual process is even less ideal. The restless one is about to explode at any time, the emptiness is terrifying, the boring is overwhelmed, unable to find the direction, unable to realize the dream, and being in it, it seems to only experience its cruelty and confusion. Fighting, skipping classes, stealing, rebellious, squandering all the way, until you are tempted by white smoke, driving a restless heart, getting involved in drugs, and you will never end... Let the Buddha's light feathers sink in with great power. Endless dark pain, tasted ups and downs, deeper and deeper, unable to struggle.
However, there is always a little, just a little, something or a person or a feeling. At this time, it flashes in your mind and becomes a little light in the darkness, so you reach out intuitively to give yourself salvation. The difference is that some people come out, and some people sink forever.
In fact, whether you like to make a calm and peaceful boiled water in a cup, or you have to flutter it out, when these years have passed, you can look back and taste it, and you will have less regrets.
