Mo Yan: When you are young, it is not too much to fall in love with anything, and when you are mature, it is not wrong to give up anything
In this hustle and bustle of the world, everyone is busy pursuing their dreams and love. And in the process of these pursuits, we are sometimes confused, sometimes firm, sometimes painful, but more importantly, growth. As Mo Yan said: "When you are young, it is not too much to fall in love with anything, and when you are mature, it is not wrong to give up anything." This sentence is like a beacon that illuminates our way forward and guides us to grow and move forward in the journey of life.
1. Enthusiasm and fearlessness in youth
When we are young, we are like the rising sun, full of vigor and vitality. At that time, we were full of curiosity about the world and full of yearning for the unknown. We bravely pursue our dreams and fearlessly express our love. At that time, we seemed to have a kind of magic that could make people feel the power and beauty of life.
In our young years, we may fall in love with someone and give everything for it, even at the expense of our own future and future. That kind of innocent love, like cherry blossoms in early spring, is beautiful and short. But even if we can't come together in the end, we will be grateful, because that love has taught us how to love and how to cherish.
At the same time, we will also pursue our dreams and work hard for them. At that time, we were not afraid of difficulties and challenges, just because we had a firm belief in our hearts. Even if we don't achieve our dreams in the end, we will gain valuable lessons and build a strong foundation for future growth.
2. Maturity and Reason
However, as the years go by, we mature. We are beginning to understand that life is not all smooth sailing, but full of twists and turns. We are beginning to learn to look at things rationally and to make the right choices in a complex world.
In our mature lives, we may face various choices, including career, family, love, etc. These choices often cost us dearly, even sacrificing something we once cherished. But it is these choices that make us more clear about the direction of our lives and strengthen our beliefs.
When we are faced with a choice, we need to learn to give up. Giving up does not mean failure or retreat, but rather a form of wisdom. As Mo Yan said, "When you are mature, it is not wrong to give up anything." "Because it's only after giving up that we can focus more on the things that really matter, and we can appreciate the things that are really worth having.
In the process of giving up, we may feel pain and reluctance. But it is these pains and reluctances that make us more deeply aware of our inner needs and values. They give us an idea of what really matters and what should be abandoned.
3. Conclusion: Growth and Transformation
Looking back on our lives, we have experienced countless setbacks and tribulations, from the enthusiasm and fearlessness of our youth to the rationality and choices of maturity. But it is these experiences that allow us to grow and transform.
On the road of growth, we need to learn to cherish every moment and feel every process. We need to be brave enough to pursue our dreams and loves, but we also need to look at things rationally and make the right choices. Only in this way can we go further and more steadily in the journey of life.
Finally, let's conclude with another quote from Mo Yan: "When you are young, it is not too much to fall in love with anything, and when you are mature, it is not wrong to give up anything." "May we continue to move forward and grow in the journey of life, and finally become the person we want to be.
