The river flows eastward, leaving the sound of running water; The tide receded, leaving a layer of silt; The sun sets in the west, leaving a touch of sunset; Flowers fall, leaving a pile of fertilizer; History has passed, leaving a deep rut. ...

Up and down for five thousand years, ups and downs, sharing weal and woe, success or failure at one stroke, never stopped. The tyranny of the Qin dynasty turned a glorious page of the Qin dynasty, and the majesty of "the king of Qin swept Liuhe" was gradually washed away. On the banks of the Wujiang River, the once brilliant hero has turned to dust, and then, the prosperous man covered up the glory of the hero. The decline of the Song Dynasty gave birth to the Yuan Dynasty. The incompetence of the Ming Dynasty created the Qing Dynasty, and the failure of the Qing Dynasty created modern China.

It is an eternal truth that there are flowers that will fall, and there will be prosperity and decline. Who's in charge of success or failure? Fate? Providence? Is everything doomed? One misstep makes a lasting regret. Always walking by the river, how can you not get wet?

If everything is providence, everything is fate, and it is doomed after all, we don't need to be complacent about the temporary prosperity, and we don't need to be angry and complain about the decline. There is no way to resist the ending of the song dynasty, and this day will come sooner or later.

However, decline is nothing to be afraid of, just like death. When you are alive, you will always feel that death is terrible, but when it really comes, you will be somewhat tolerant. When prosperity, I always think that decline is a disaster. After you really decline, you just return to the beginning or the end. The starting point and the ending point are not contradictory. Life is just a race. After a few laps, the end point is at the starting point.

Fate is hard to break. In the face of success or failure, rise or fall, honor or shame, you should be more tolerant and generous, so that ups and downs will not hurt you. After a lifetime, what should I really leave behind so that I won't live in vain?
