In life, only direction matters, not an unchanging path.
In life, many times it's our own self-inflicted anxiety. Like train passengers, they start worrying about this and that before the train even departs. In fact, whether the train will arrive at its destination isn't the most important thing; it's about enjoying the present moment. The scenery outside is beautiful, why be unhappy because of past regrets or future anxieties? Embrace today, and have a joyful feast with the landscapes along the way.
The heart is a person's wings; the bigger the heart, the bigger the world. Often, what restricts us isn't the surroundings or others' words, but ourselves: unable to open our minds, unable to let go, unable to move on, trapped in dark memories; unwilling to think, lacking confidence, unwilling to act, confining ourselves to a fixed space. If we can't break free from the confinement of our hearts, even with an entire sky, we won't feel free.
No matter how slow you are, it doesn't matter; as long as you have the determination, you will eventually reach the place you want to go.
Life has only direction, not an unchanging road. Along this direction, there will be many different roads, some smooth and wide, some narrow and winding, some muddy, and even some traps and abysses. Maybe when we finally arrive, we won't achieve our ideal, but we shouldn't despair because of it. As long as we keep moving, there will never be a dead end; what truly makes us hopeless is our own heart.
