The journey has been quite hurried these two days. In fact, there is resistance in my heart to such a rush, after all, I like to unfold something unhurriedly. But hurried is also good, otherwise, things may be dragged on without results.
Sometimes I think, "results", is it necessary? I am a typical life impermanent, with the shadow of nothingness in my heart, so I became a fearer of the so-called "consequence". Before the real "result" arrives, in our life, can we set the result in stages and determine the success or failure? I have always suspected. But I also doubt the importance of "process", because only when it corresponds to "result" can "process" become "process", and there are too many meaningless details in this "process". Trivial and scattered, like the broken shadow of sunlight in the pond, shaking unpredictably.
Later, I gradually believed that life is not set by the result, nor determined by the process. Life is one or one jumping point, embedded in our memories. One or some important moments in life, a look in life, a gaze in life, a special posture in life, a touch of the soul, and an atmosphere of nostalgia, no matter how light or fire is, it is a lifetime. In this way, remove the trivial matter, cut off the process, ignore the result, and spend one world at a moment in your life.
However, this is after all an abstract and lyrical comprehension. Life may be viewed this way, but it cannot be spent like this, so we also bear damn results in the process of creation and ownership in a long life, so we will think about turning back again and again like that. As a university professor and poet, Bobby Long may have the same knowledge as me. He quoted a poem by TS Eliot-
"We should never stop exploring. At the end of our exploration, we will reach where we started, and it's like knowing here for the first time."
The beginning is not necessarily birth; the end is not necessarily death. Just like the love song for Bobby Long in the movie.
