Years of Recollection · Fragments of Speech: In a New Year, Please Decorate Your Years with Happiness

— Time flows like a river, years pass, and another year has come. We stand still, yet the east wind whispers through the old courtyard, and the years have subtly replaced the old seals with new ones…
— The intro

Time is long, and life is short. The scenery keeps repeating year after year, with rising and falling tides and fluctuating thoughts.
Actually, as people reach a certain age, they often begin to possess wisdom. Even though wrinkles appear on the face with the passage of time, maturity and composure are subtly etched onto the heart. Despite the lingering hardships and the reluctance to let go of the passing of time, one eventually learns that butterflies cannot cross the vast sea, and life need not be consumed by futile regrets.
Actually, in the cracks of life, small and fleeting worries can be found. As long as you possess a noble heart, there will be poetry and far-off places.
Therefore, in the corridor of time, there will always be someone who understands your strength and your vulnerability; there will always be light to give you strength, and there will always be splendor engraved in the course of life.
How many experiences have faded into dust; how many thoughts have scattered through the years. Ask yourself: in this world of mountains and rivers, when time turns, how many people can relive yesterday's stories?
Therefore, do not dwell on what is lost. Time is long, and everyone has their own color and story. Along the journey, many things we cannot take with us. As Lu Xiaoru said: setbacks will come and go, tears will flow, and they will also be hidden.

Okay, it's a new year! May you shed the burdens of daily life and possess a youthful heart!
It's a new year, old years don't return, please use laughter as a label for your days.
It's a new year, a new beginning, please decorate your years with happiness.
