When free, sit down and calculate the problems of life...!
在台的順1d ago
Today, I suddenly sat down and did some mental arithmetic about time, and realized that what I have left is actually not as much as I thought...
I've turned 25 this year. Assuming I'm lucky enough to live to 80 years old, then:
🌸 The beautiful cherry blossom season outside, I only have 55 more chances to admire.
🌊 The summer sea, not every year can I arrange my busy life to go, calculating it, it's probably only around 25 times.
🌕 There's a full moon every month, but if we only count the nights when I truly have leisure to look up and admire it, that number is not much left.
✈️ Long trips abroad, if I can only save up and go once every 5 years, then my life will only have a mere 15 trips left.
🐾 The opportunity to bond with, love, and care for dogs and cats... probably only enough time to welcome 2-3 more through my life.
🍻 The nights spent with my closest friends, laughing and chatting until dawn without a care... perhaps now can only be counted on one hand.
🍚 Home-cooked meals in my hometown, if I can only arrange to visit twice a year, then I can only eat about 100 meals.
👴👵 And most heartbreakingly... the number of times I can truly see my parents' smiles and faces is only... times.
After calculating this problem, I suddenly feel that the daily joys and sorrows have become so insignificant. They are not long enough for me to carry resentment forever, to remember people I hate, or to be depressed over trivial matters that are not worth it.
I want to use the little time left to love the people who are truly important, do the things I like, and live fully in the present. 🍂✨
