​

In the world, there is neither happiness nor misfortune, only a state and another state’s comparison.”

Past life experiences will tell you the correctness of this sentence. No matter how unbearable the years are, there are always memories that make you cherish. Time magnifies happiness and shrinks pain.

Even if you are not doing well now, this is the happiest moment in your life, and you will smile when you look back.

Any hardship is an opportunity for transformation.

01) Friend Xia Xia said, the most difficult time is when she was 28 years old.

That year, the joint business failed, with no money, and in debt, she used to brag about starting a business and striving for success, but now she realizes that she was foolish.

Past life experiences are like a dream, and the reality that comes afterwards hits her mercilessly. She couldn't fight back.

The (collection notice) phone bombarded her every day, some people scolded, some threatened, and some used a combination of softness and firmness. Her contact list had been leaked hundreds of times.

Her family worried about her situation, and her friends were annoyed by the harassment. Suddenly, she became a public enemy, her reputation was ruined, and her former proud self was now ashamed to face people.

Xia Xia sought help from her close people, but they all shied away, complaining that business was bad and their family expenses were high.

02) Xia Xia didn't say anything more. In the adult world, if someone doesn't agree, it’s a refusal. For so many years, she had never opened her mouth to them, and now that she needed help, it turned out to be nothing. People's relationships are thin as paper.

When life is most difficult, every time it’s late at night, Xia Xia took a deep breath and tears would come out. Her chest was tight, and she couldn't express her emotions, sometimes she would cry hysterically until her voice was hoarse, her eyes were swollen and red.

Xia Xia often thought, ‘Let’s just die here.’ Life was so painful, and it didn't seem worth living.

But the motivation to repay the loan kept her going. She didn't want to leave a mess for her family.

Now, two years later, she had survived the hardest days. Looking back, that period wasn't completely wasted. After all, she had learned to be practical and no longer naive. She had seen how people treated her, and she had lost a lot of burdens.

Many things may have to start over, but fate forcefully unburdened her, and she ended up better and more relaxed. This was a good thing.

The people who love you are the motivation to keep you going.

01) Grandma passed away on Qingming Festival. Nana saw her sick grandma, who was tormented by illness and nearing death, and her heart ached. Big tears rolled down her cheeks, and she called out, ‘Grandma!’

The confused grandma opened her eyes, her eyes were full of joy, grievance, pain, sadness, and regret. Grandma held Nana’s hand tightly and hugged her. She said to Nana, ‘Don’t leave, stay with me, I’ll be gone in three days.’

On the third morning, Grandma passed away.

The grandma who loved Nana forever didn’t ever despise Nana’s ugliness. She always believed in Nana’s grandma, always thinking that Nana’s grandma would have a future. She always waited for Nana’s grandma to pass away.

Before, Nana always rushed out to the outside world in a hurry, thinking that beautiful things were outside the world, but she never turned back to see the grandma standing at the door watching Nana leave.

02) The outside world is not so good. People’s relationships are complex, work is not going smoothly, and the future is bleak. In the big city, she was too small, her dreams hadn't been realized, and she hadn't become the person she wanted to be. She used to feel that she couldn’t bear it, and life was too difficult.

When relatives pass away, it turns out there’s a grandma to complain to. Someone can comfort her, and someone can unconditionally believe in her, even if the whole world says she’s wrong.

At that time, she felt so difficult, but her loved ones were still there. She just hadn’t noticed it. Now, whenever she faces difficulties, it reminds her that as long as there’s someone, it’s okay.

There is no winter that will never pass, and there is no spring that will never come.

Perhaps, we all have experienced or not experienced, big or small losses. When we wake up clearly, we will find that the pain at that time may be the pain caused by the eagerness to get rid of something.

We don't want things to go wrong, but things will eventually happen as we wish. When it should come, it will come. When it should go, it will go. The things we can do in between are probably just what we can do.

What we can do is to calm ourselves down, find ways to solve the problem, and do something that doesn’t make us regret. What we can do is to persevere a little.

What we can do doesn’t necessarily make us win or change our fate. It just makes it so that when we look back on our days, we don’t regret not trying.
