Leaving from our Rushmore

One day I suddenly realized that when I was 15 years old, I seemed to have the preference of the whole world.

I can confront, challenge, and shout without restraint; test, ambiguous, and express love without shame. The biggest difficulty in my life is that the ranking in mathematics is dragging back a bit. . Under such circumstances, I am extremely insensitive to people and things outside of my world. I would rather risk hurting others and express my views clearly.

When I was 15, I was in my Rushmore

Of course you will be suddenly expelled from Rushmore one day. You stand in a barren and scarce public high school, feeling disillusioned, uncomfortable, and painful. You desperately want to get back to what you felt before, struggling to accept it.

Of course, one day you will suddenly be surprised, what's the point? The first thing that comes is numbness, it doesn't matter, self-giving up. If the most meaningful things in life are meaningless, then life itself has no meaning.

Of course, in the daily accumulation, you finally come back to your senses, and suddenly realize that when you are 15 years old, there are countless ruins outside your world. You decide to stand up, go out, repair those scars, and shake hands to make peace.

Oh, it turns out I don't just live in my Rushmore. This is also sudden consciousness.

Therefore, the appearance looks more and more layered, without defects, and no entrance, but the heart is more and more sensitive and conscious. So you presented the best performance in the adult world, carefully avoiding the possibility of harming anyone, but you only forgot yourself.

No one can stay in their own Rushmore forever, but in the years that followed, some moments at the age of 15 eventually merged into the ocean currents of life and took us forward.
