You have nothing; You have everything

A friend of mine told me when she and her mother on the way to shopping mall, they passed by the place where she lived ten years ago during the internship.

The cement road has been resurfaced; the brick building has been repainted, the other is still the way it was before. She stood at the door where she had lived, and thought about ten years ago, she had to go back to that house every day, and now she did not seem to know how to live in the place that she had lived for two years.

That time she was young and frivolous, at that time she did not feel hard and tired, feel that have a place that can sleep at ease, can bathe, wash clothes, is a very happy thing.

Later she worked hard to save money, save enough to get the lowest down payment and bought a house. She said that the house is for her mother, she wanted to tell her mother: "I will not let you live in that house forever, our life will be hopeful."

I remember when she first graduated from college, she changed three jobs in a year and poured several buses to work every day as if her life only had work. Once she met a thief, her bag almost got stolen, but even if it was stolen, the money in the wallet is not more than $10.

Sometimes, when the company gives out flyers. In the summer, she wears a green rented costume, like a green dinosaur, but she does not feel embarrassed, as if in the completion of a particularly meaningful thing.

At that time every afternoon, no one can go back home. After having her lunch, she lies down on the desk for a while, imagine what she will become in the future and full of expectations. After work, she crowded on the bus to go home, accompanied her was only the stars in the sky. Although tired, but she prefers that fearless times, courageous forward to her dream.

I admire a pretty girl that has her own big company, her business is famous around the world, live in the life she wanted, and see a better world.

That year, she holds her opinion and starts a business, when she has no money, she doesn't dare to tell her parents, she even ate the cheapest rice noodles. Sometimes she will sleep on the floor because she scared she will oversleep if sleep on the bed, 365 days a year without rest, immediately rushed to the computer after woke up ...

In fact, when she was young, she had received seven critically ill notice, the hospital informed her parents that she can’t live through 12 years old, and send her back home as soon as possible to prepare for the funeral. When she grew up, she underwent four general anesthesia surgeries, and now she has a scar on her body. With her family day and night care, her body condition becomes better and better each day; she felt that there is nothing more fortunate than staying alive.

Time is fair; it will see your efforts, your day of rewards will come.

Like my favorite YouTuber, she is no different from most young people, originally also had nothing, come to the big city, always with her own ways to adhere to a kind of achievement of her own expectations.

She has been on many forums. Before her short video gets millions of views, she also tried to vivid animated images, done a parody video. In an ad video, she admits: "Every single choice I've had in 12 years, I just stick to it, don't give up, and be curious about the world even in the most boring and powerless days."

Life is the process of finding yourself. We strive to move up, not only for the world to see us, but also for us to see the world.

When I was shopping with Jacklin, when we passed by a small art bookstore, some teenage girls run out from the shop, in their hand with a beautiful cotton candy. They were holding the cotton candy merrily talking about fun stuff happened in school, and really look forward to the upcoming school competition, can participate in running, high jump, relay race ... The girls were talking and laughing, and the sound melted into the air around them.

Jacklin sighed and bowed her head and said, "Look how young they are, as if they have everything."

I know that Jacklin has to pay for this month's rent, she just changed a new job, every day got scold by the manager because of keep modifying the plan. Sometimes late in the night, she will cry because of the customers' unreasonable request. She said, these years, from the original nothing to the present poor, she had long been trained in a bulletproof ability.

Jacklin is not a lazy people; she had a very stable work, later got married, gave birth to children. In order to take care of her children, she had to resign. But she never thought that her husband addicted to gambling and lost the house, owed tons of debt, and the worst is he is having an affair with another woman. Her husband didn't feel sorry for her, and she divorced and raised her children alone.

She was 30-year-old and everything back to zero. She said: "Life seems so bad, the rent is up again, the toilet was blocked, her water supply was cut off because she didn’t pay the bill, cockroaches everywhere, the corridor full of rubbish. But when she saw the cute smile on her children, she feels that she must strive hard.

Her eyes were weary but full of energy.

Some people say I can’t collapse because I have no one. But I want to say, we still have love behind us, have time, have a dream, have courage. It seems like nothing, but it is everything. It is these forces that underpin our march.

Everyone longs for a better life, but we cannot overlook the hardships that must be endured on this road. Now speaking of "nothing," perhaps after a few years, it is only the light wind of the talk, after all, life is very long, there is still a long way to go, a lot of difficulties to go through too.

When we go through a difficulty, you will find that each person's life has the most difficult period, but it is these hardships make your life vast.

Nice post @walkinharmony it reminded me of a quote from the movie Fight Club said by Tyler Durden "It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to anything!"
