Your eternal enemy is yourself, your eternal friend is yourself

The ignorant we always want to fight the enemy that exists on the surface. Where is the best hiding place for a real adversary? It's a place you'll never check out until the end. You've endured the pain, but you've been sheltering him, and everyone's in his game. It's funny that you want to destroy someone in order to protect him, but someone else will fight you to protect it, so you have to admit how tough your opponent is. No one has seen it, but everyone can hear him from time to time. It controls most of the people, few can control it. Any idea why this is? Because it understands the greatest deception in the world, which is to convince you that he is you. This life is like you and him playing chess, a terrifying combination of chess and trickery. The opponent gives you a pawn for you to take, and makes you feel as if you were able to take it because you are smart, and the end result is a dead pawn that kills you before you know it. ——You have a friend, he is your best friend, but the biggest regret is that you will never know that he is your real friend until the end, and you will even feel that he is your enemy at first. I'm lying to you, because everyone is initially controlled by that other person, born as a doll of it, a chess piece, only your friend knows the whole puzzle, he tries to help you, but is blocked by you , whether you can get rid of control, trust your friends, and destroy your enemies depends on your consciousness. The enemy who did not appear to disappear, the friend who did not appear to leave, and the moment the game is over, you will never know that the real friend has always concealed a sentence, which suddenly feels familiar to you. It's as if you've heard your worst enemy say it over and over. "I am you."
