When people live, there will always be moments when they wonder if life is just a repetition day by day, and life is like a two-sided continuous pattern, extending meaninglessly.

There are disadvantages of retreating, and there is a risk of advancement.

It seems that he is living for himself, but it seems that there is not a day that really belongs to him.

One day, I saw my grandmother downstairs tending to the vegetable garden in the yard, and I couldn't help but ask her what she thought of the meaning of life.

She is already in her old age, with no children and no daughters, but she smiles every day, and is busy around the flower beds and vegetable fields, and she is never tired of it.

The old man said: To live is to be meaningful.

At that time, I didn't understand much until I saw a sentence from the writer Yu Hua - people live for life itself, not for things outside life.

It dawned on me that living is meaning, and that's what it means.

01: To be alive is to live in the moment

When I was a child, I didn't understand why teachers and parents always liked to talk about the future - if you don't study hard, what will happen to the future.

It seems that in life, you only need to think about the future, and you don't need to think about the present at all.

It's the same when you grow up, you have to consider the prospects when looking for a job; The person to talk about should think about it later.

We live today, but we make choices based on the future.

We seem to be free, but in fact we are just puppets, and the hand that controls us is called worry.

But as you get older, you'll come to understand that anxiety and worry won't help you solve any problem at all.

You'll come to understand that you don't have to measure tomorrow's problems with what you can do now.

The future, the future, living in the present is the whole meaning of living.

02: To live is to live oneself

In Buckman's book "List of Life," the elderly Mary spends her life living for others. Her sister is a lingering shadow for her life, getting her mother's approval is her lifelong expectation, and her husband is used to her giving unconditionally.

She thought she would follow the list every day and do things step by step until she was old, but because of her husband's cheating, her life was shattered.

She runs away from home and settles down in a run-down town, where she meets different people and finally realizes that she can live her life according to her own heart.

Eventually, with everyone's encouragement, the elderly Marie decided to find the dream she had had in her youth, and she set out on the road to Paris.

Everyone's definition of happiness is different, but we often get lost in the eyes of others, and let life become someone else's racetrack rather than our own place.

But someone else has already been in charge, and if you live as someone else, then who will live like you?

The meaning of being alive is to live yourself.

03: To live is to live as you like

People have their own aspirations, and the criteria for judging happiness are also different.

Some people like luxurious residences, but for some people, it is enough to have a bed to sleep in.

Some people like to travel around and experience the world with their feet, but for some people, it is good to stay in a corner and stay in a city and grow old.

Some people aspire to be famous, surrounded by flowers, but for others, it is a pleasure to live plainly and quietly.

Arsenic of A, honey of B. The food in other people's mouths may not meet your taste buds, and the scenery in other people's eyes may be ordinary in your eyes.

Don't measure your feet with other people's shoes, and don't use other people's eyes to kidnap your life.

As long as it is okay with others and harmless to society, you can live as you wish.

Living with your heart is the meaning of life.

Maugham wrote in "The Moon and Sixpence": I have exhausted my strength and lived an ordinary life.

Ordinary or extraordinary, your life must be controlled by you. Your life can only be defined by you.

To be alive is to be alive in all its senses.
