Perhaps, we are all growing.

 I'm sure many of you can relate to being pressured by your parents to do things. But what happens after I've made my choices? They always try to impose their own ideas on me, trying to change my path. Like today, they kept telling me to stay here, but when I chose to stay and wanted to do something else and not go back home this year, they kept finding fault with me. I feel so helpless…

How can you make those who look down on you look up to you?

 　　 Ahead lies a crossroads. Imagine you're standing there. You'll see countless unfamiliar faces pass by in just a few minutes, yet not a single one stops for you. This is life. The road to success is often lonely; no one can achieve it overnight. 　　 Before, you were unknown, bullied, yet fearless, seeing others' strange looks as mere stimuli to thicken your skin. Before, you were bold and unrestrained, wanting others to see you, to notice your uniqueness, to give yourself a sense of security. Before, you were petty and self-centered, lingering marks from past hurts. The more others looked down on you before, the harder you now strive to earn their admiration. Indifference leads to inaction. 　　 Perhaps you've been insecure, but that was just a small setback to your confidence. Perhaps you've been kind, but that was just a sliver of compassion in your heart. Perhaps you've been naive, but that was just a stepping stone on your path to maturity. All of this indic...

The best character has nothing to do with education or wealth.

 01 A few days ago, I saw a touching news story. A group of sanitation workers in Wuhan were quarantined in a hotel because they were cleaning a hospital. After 14 days, on check-out day, the hotel manager, Cheng Yu, checked the rooms while tears streamed down her face. She went into nine rooms and found each one spotless. It turned out that these sanitation workers felt that they shouldn't leave their hotel rooms messy, as it would only cause trouble for the hotel staff. So, they unanimously cleaned their rooms thoroughly before leaving satisfied. This is a group of people with limited education, doing some of the city's most tiring and dirty work. But they possess the cleanest and noblest souls. Cleaning the rooms reflects their character and refinement in the smallest details. This reminds me of another news story I read. Last June, Huo and his girlfriend were caught by the police for repeatedly evading fares by "buying short and riding long." According to the inve...

Do you think your illness can be cured by falling in love?

 Honestly, whenever I hear a girl complain, "If only I had a boyfriend, this and that would be so much better," I get speechless. Why do they always so naively attribute their current problems to not having a boyfriend? It's like having a boyfriend would magically solve everything. I just want to say: Ha! Like a girl I knew before, she was the typical type who hoped love would save her from all her problems . She was notoriously lazy and a homebody in her dorm. She basically spent all her time lounging around, sometimes even having her roommates bring her food. She ate in bed. Her biggest hobbies were watching Korean dramas and complaining about life. Life is full of disappointments , so she often says things like, "I'm so bored every day. If only I had a boyfriend to take me out," "I failed my exam . If only I had a boyfriend, he could help me study , " "When I don't have enough money for living expenses, if only I had a boyfriend, he cou...
