Thoughts#

It has been a long time since the last article output. During this time, I have hardly posted anything on social media. However, looking back at the content produced throughout 2023, it is still significantly more than in previous years.

I reread the summary I wrote around this time last year, and certain moments and events keep repeating. Sometimes, an inexplicable sense of fear suddenly overwhelms me; I fear that I am stagnating in my day-to-day life. I always silently tell myself to be more confident, a confidence that is not outwardly displayed but rather an inner peace and certainty.

Reflecting on the past year, I often feel distressed over wasted excellent opportunities, yet I also take pride in my small achievements. I feel anxious and restless when I can't solve a problem, but I also get excited when a good idea suddenly pops up. I start to yearn for love because of a lyric, yet I often sigh that "loneliness is the norm of life."

As the new year approaches, it's hard for me to articulate my goals; I just hope to have more experiences, more outputs and reflections, and to bravely take on responsibilities. There’s no need to reminisce about last night's beautiful moonlight, for the sun will rise as usual every day.
