Chapter 1 Cherishing Life Cherishing Life
Most people are born with love that is omnipresent and taken for granted.

Everything is so unquestionable and logical.People take everything in life for granted.

However, one day, when the upsurge of youth surged and the seeds of rebellion germinated, our perspective began to tilt.We start to doubt and run away, sometimes even losing everything we have.

My fear is that when love is everywhere, or in the love we take for granted, the feeling of love is lost.There is a factor of love in human nature, but this potential of love was stifled by parents' excessive care when they were young.

Helen Keller wrote in "If You Give Me Three Days of Light": It would be a kind of happiness if everyone suffered from blindness and deafness for a few days in his first acquaintance stage.Darkness will make him cherish sight more, and silence will teach him to love sound more.

So, I think it may be a kind of happiness for everyone to be an orphan once in the beginning of his life.Loneliness makes us appreciate being together more, isolation teaches us how to love.Coincidentally, it is said that in some Buddhist countries, a man has to go to a temple to become a monk once in his life, which means to experience penance and sudden enlightenment. This feeling may make people feel compassionate all their lives.

For the ubiquitous family affection, if you try to be an orphan, you must first learn to let go.I once did such a psychological test, and listed the seven things I love the most on paper in order, which can be relatives and friends, or one thing or thing.Then, choose for yourself in order - give up - cruel choice.Although it is a kind of psychological simulation, the pain is hidden in my heart as if I really want to give up.At that moment, I suddenly discovered that I actually had so many things that I couldn't let go of.

When everything is inevitably abandoned and returned to zero, we need to start again and reconnect (in The Little Prince, in the mind of the fox waiting for love, love is domestication, and domestication meaning to establish a connection), we need to learn to love and be loved - we need to relearn and realize those things in life that we once took for granted.

What I call renunciation here is not a state of existence, but a state of mind.It is to appreciate love in the state of lack of love, and to feel family affection in the situation of being exiled by relatives.

When faced with all irreversible situations, that kind of pain will always be engraved in my heart.And what we need to do is just a kind of spiritual experience, making some assumptions, assuming that we are born helpless, assuming that one day we suddenly lose a lot, and push ourselves into the lonely state of the mind.

It's not good being an orphan, yet people often don't appreciate what we have, but miss what we have lost, which is the sad and flawed part of being human.

People who live in happiness and love often complain that they don't get any love, so they rebel, they go away, because they never lost love.

You will have everything when you have nothing, you will cherish everything after you lose it, and you will be grateful if you learn to give. These are more things I read in Daddy-Long-Legs.

Every girl wishes to become an orphan after watching Daddy-Long-Legs, envying the unrestrained and laissez-faire life, and fantasizing that she can also meet her own Prince Charming—Daddy-Long-Legs.

And what I want to tell you is that life needs miracles, and the greatest miracle is yourself.

To write a personal letter to the one you love and the one who loves you, whether they are far away or close at hand - if you can do that, you will have achieved our purpose in publishing this epistolary novel.
