How many high spirits have been wiped out by the years

What a high spirited Esteban was in his youth. He was a poor man who was a gold digger. He had boundless energy and boundless ambition. I believe it was this that attracted young Clara. And the years have worn away his spirit, making him conservative and stubborn. And when love had become a habit, Clara did not leave him, just deeply disappointed.
My childhood father was someone I admired, an Air Force combat hero. After being demobilized, he was so high-spirited that he married a beautiful woman who was well-known at that time. But with the years and the effects of alcohol, he has become stubborn and unreasonable. My love for him has not changed, but I no longer worship him.
Now it's my turn to be young and full of energy. How can I fight the erosion of time? Even if I get old, I hope I can keep my heroic spirit. Coincidentally, the first girl who fell in love with me was also named Clara, a Sydney girl, but unfortunately she has returned to China. When she left, I made a promise that I would go to her when I had a chance.
