Life changed me

 　　Life has changed me. I used to refuse to eat anything I didn't like; now, even if I dislike it, I'll silently eat a few bites.

　　Life has changed me. I used to get angry or even talk back to my family when they criticized me; now, I accept their advice because they mean well. Life has changed me.

　　I used to feel wronged by a single unpleasant comment from someone; now, I'm numb, unwilling to care, sometimes even wondering what the point is, only hurting myself, better to ignore it. Life has changed me

　　. I used to be easily angered, though I wouldn't lash out at others, I'd silently sulk; now, I don't want to think about it, feeling anger is pointless, so why bother? Life has changed

　　me. I used to be incredibly lazy; I can hardly believe I've become so lazy. I've become so busy. These days, it seems I'm using busyness to fill my time, to kill boredom, and to keep my mind from wandering.

　　Life has changed me. I used to cry over tragic scenes in TV dramas and laugh out loud at funny ones. Now, I seem to have lost my passion for them. Have I passed the age of binge-watching TV shows?

　　Life has changed me. I used to be reluctant to do this or that for a few minutes of free time. Now, I'm used to doing things myself, even if I know I don't know how, I'll quietly learn instead of relying on others, because we always have to face many unexpected things on our own.

　　Life has changed me. I used to be afraid of the dark, too scared to go out alone at night. Now, I've gradually gotten used to the darkness, and sometimes I have to walk alone on those particularly gloomy paths, even though I'm scared. I'm trying hard to get used to it;

　　life has changed me. Actually, I really dislike interacting and communicating with strangers; it makes me feel very insecure (I keep telling myself to forget that incident, but I just can't). But now I'm gradually getting used to how to get along and communicate with those people…

　　Life has changed me. I know I'm reluctant to take the initiative to greet people or start conversations, not because I don't want to, but because I lack the courage. I don't know what I'm afraid of, but I know I have a bit of a fear in my heart. Now I'm trying to change…

　　Life has changed me. Although I say it's okay, it's not a big deal, only I know I'm actually very unhappy, but I pretend nothing's wrong…

　　Life has changed me. Honestly, I'm terrified of being alone in an empty room, but I have to force myself to adapt…

　　Life has changed me, those things I didn't want to… What once frightened me, even terrified me, I now learn to approach, adapt to, and become accustomed to…

　　Life has changed me. I don't know when it started, but for me, laughter has become a habit rather than an expression. I remember a period when I was in a bad mood and depressed. Several colleagues told me that they were not used to me being like this, and suddenly felt that we were all trying to please others, gradually forgetting our original selves…

　　Life has changed me. I don't know if this change is good or bad, but we have to mature step by step because we need to live. Just as society is constantly developing and progressing, so too are we humans. Don't we need to progress? Of course, the answer is no. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that we keep progressing and moving forward. The road to progress is always filled with hardships and joys. Only by experiencing every feeling can we blossom into our best selves.

　　It must be said that life makes us grow and transform us into more vibrant and colorful individuals.

　　Life is full of sunshine and joy. In fact, as long as one has a contented and happy heart, one will surely find happiness everywhere.

　　Life is joyful, no matter when or where, because troubles will always pass.

　　Life is full of wonderful colors: vibrant red, tranquil green, joyful orange, pure white—each a testament to life, a color to savor.

　　Life should be warm, joyful, and radiant. Don't complain about the unfairness of fate, nor about the hardships of life; complaining will only make you more agitated. The key is whether you possess discerning eyes, a kind hand, and a perceptive heart. Life should be warm, overflowing with happiness, and radiant.

　　Life should be like this, radiant. In moments of joy, a simple encouraging glance, a gentle smile, a warm hand, or a light pat on the shoulder can bring a different feeling, a different confidence. Savor life, appreciate life. What

　　life has given me, what life has changed me…

A foreign land, a different kind of charm.

 　　In a foreign land, I'm used to measuring the local customs with my eyes and understanding the folkways with my heart. No matter where I am, every brick, every tile, every person, and every event evokes endless emotions in me. 　　Yao'an has two distinctive features that I rarely saw before. In the north, where rainfall is scarce, single-story houses are the norm, but in Yao'an, pointed-roof tile houses are everywhere, surrounded by high walls forming deep courtyards with vermilion gates. Perhaps the branches in the courtyards couldn't resist climbing over the walls. Such architecture, in the north where family values ​​are strong, is both solemn and vibrant. I grew up in a mountain village, where I mostly saw stone houses nestled at the foot or halfway up the mountain. I rarely saw this kind of architecture, and my mind was full of questions: Why are the walls so high? Why are the gates red? Why are the roofs pointed? 　　Walking along the paths of this foreign land, wat...

The fragrance of paper

 　　I remember when I was little, every year before the Spring Festival, my family would go to the store to buy newspapers to wallpaper the walls. I was always overjoyed. I would carefully select each sheet, keeping the interesting and favorite parts separately, and saving the rest for wallpapering. Even so, when applying the paste, I would try to leave the favorite parts exposed, which often slowed down the work, and the colors of the more colorful pictures were often darker, inevitably earning me a scolding from my parents! 　　When I had some free time, I would flip through the saved newspapers, a faint fragrance wafting from them. Reading them brought me immense peace and joy. In those days, this was enough for me. I often stood by the wall, browsing the newspapers, or was drawn to the newspapers hanging on the ceiling, gazing up at them for a long time until my neck ached. 　　When I was in junior high, "New Year's cards" were very popular for a while, with all sorts of e...

The Moonlight in My Heart

 　　The moonlight shines into human life, inspiring enduring acts of moon worship and sacrifice! "When I was young, I didn't know the moon, calling it a white jade plate." Lying in my mother's arms, gazing at the bright, round moon, I asked what the shadows in the moon were, and the answer was: "Grandma Moon is spinning thread." Thus, the moonlight in Dihua Miaogou felt especially familiar, because my mother's methods of spinning thread and weaving clothes were similar to those of "Grandma Moon." 　　On the Mid-Autumn Festival, a long table was placed in front of the door, laden with homegrown walnuts, chestnuts, apples, grapes, and the flatbreads my mother had baked. First, incense was burned, and we kowtowed to the moon, then sat around the long table to enjoy the fruit and flatbread dinner. Back then, there was no electricity in the mountains; with the soft moonlight, there was no need for kerosene lamps, and my parents and siblings were moved ...
