Woken up in the middle of the night by stomach pain and the urge to urinate, I couldn't fall back asleep after that. Tossing and turning, my mind was racing, and I thought I might as well get up and write something.
I don't know if it's because I caught the flu after accompanying Lena to the hospital that day, but I feel unwell overall, with a fever, and on top of that, the gastrointestinal discomfort from treating Helicobacter pylori is making me suffer greatly. Previously, I said that the process of treating Helicobacter pylori felt like going through tribulations, and based on my current experience, it truly is.
I have to endure another period of torment. My mindset is quite calm, as difficult days will always pass, and sunshine will come. However, hardship is always brief, and so is sunshine.
This is how people live under the duality of light and shadow; some have more sunny days, while others have more gloomy ones. Looking back over the past year to now, my life is filled with dark clouds. I am hovering on the edge of my thirties, both my mind and body are beginning to strive for a higher level, and isn't this also a test for me?
However, whether you accept it or not, light and shadow will always alternate; it is not influenced by your personal will. It is how you perceive and act that will bring different results to yourself. One should follow the natural order and consult an oracle.
The oracle says, "In rainy times, the hidden dragon should not act; in sunny times, the flying dragon is in the sky."
