Each person has a dream from fame, career to love. Some have small dreams, big dreams, far dreams, near dreams, some dream of simple things, some dream of reaching the blue sky like the lyrics in a cover song of a familiar historical drama "In that world of vanity/Living in this world is already crazy/Why dream of reaching the blue sky/It's better to sleep peacefully in the gentleness".
But in general, everyone hopes that the new year will be better than the old year, hoping that the bad luck and misfortune of the old year will disappear in the spring rain of the sacred moment of transition - New Year's Eve.
You said you only wished for something as small as a rabbit, but thinking about it, it was extremely difficult: Peace.
Because you have gone through a year full of storms and scandals, many times, when you open your eyes, you see a flood of negative messages. There are some twists and turns, turning black into white to the point that you are terrified of human nature, but from there, you have the opportunity to recognize the faces around you. A voice of protection, sharing, and sympathy from friends and relatives also becomes scarce in a busy life where everyone is caught up in its vortex, to the point of forgetting what needs to be done.
“The tree wants to be still but the wind won’t stop”, you have to be patient but being too patient will hurt you. You act but it is like adding grease for ants to sting. Sometimes you want to run away from everything and go to a strange land to live freely the way you want without being watched or hated by anyone.
But the responsibilities to your family and society have held you back. And you suddenly wake up: You only have one head and one heart, so you cannot let anyone torture it or hurt it if you do not allow it. Do not sit still in the face of evil, but do not let it affect or destroy your emotions, but learn to calmly move past it.
And you love life more, cherish the small beauties in this world. He repeated the last verse of the song in the historical film above: “Who said that love in this world is what makes people suffer/ Who said that the sea of people rises and falls, only love is eternal/ Even though sometimes we separate, sometimes we meet again/ Even though sometimes we reunite, sometimes we break up/ I just hope to calmly hold your hand and walk among the people”.
Calmly holding someone's hand and walking through the hustle and bustle of life is a happiness that everyone dreams of!
