Happiness is really simple

Accepting who you are at the moment is very important for both the heroine and the hero, so that you can live in the real world. Before the male protagonist died, he said to the female protagonist, "50 years old is not scary, the scary thing is that you must be 25 years old". So should the male protagonist also say to himself, "Poverty, not being appreciated is not terrible, what is terrible is vanity and self-righteousness". These two people are so similar, the female main is the "name" of the young highlight moment, and the male main is the wealthy life "profit", of course, the results of both will not be good. emmm, distinguish the true and false of life, curb desires, pursue dreams, freedom, sometimes happiness really has nothing to do with fame and fortune, think about the male protagonist kissing the person he loves, in the night of pursuing his dreams and writing hard, does he feel to true happiness. And the alpaca coat, the house with the pool, those are just temporary possessions.
