If we only meet for the first time in life, why should the autumn wind grieve over the painted fan? It is easy to change the heart of an old friend, but the heart of an old friend is easy to change. The words of Mount Li are gone. In the middle of the night, tears fall and bells ring. I don't complain. How can it be like the wish of a young man in brocade to be together? This is the first two lines of Li Qingzhao's "Dream Like Order": I often remember that I was drunk at dusk in the stream pavilion and didn't know how to return. At night I return to my boat and mistakenly enter the depths of lotus flowers. Fighting to cross, fighting to cross, startled a pool of gulls and egrets. This was an ancient poem that was often used to express the nostalgia and emotion of one's first love. It expressed the cherishment and nostalgia of people's first encounter, first love, and other beautiful things. At the same time, it also reminds people that with the passage of time, beautiful things may no longer be precious, and feelings may also fade away. Therefore, we must cherish everything in front of us and grasp the present.
We can view love as a story by seeing the events in our relationship as chapters. Every day is a new page being written. For example, a simple dinner date can be a small but sweet part of the story.
By not giving up easily. For instance, if you face rejection in a relationship, remember it's not the end of your story. You can work on yourself, become a better person, and find someone more suitable in the future.
We can apply the lesson of kindness by being nice to our neighbors and colleagues. Just like in the Christmas story where characters are kind to strangers, we can start small like helping someone carry their groceries.
In life, it can mean that there's always space for new beginnings at the end of every experience. No matter how bad or good an event was, we can find room to start something new. Let's say you end a friendship on a bad note. Instead of dwelling on the negative, you can use that 'room at the end' to make new friends or focus on other relationships. It's about seeing the end as a chance for a fresh start.
Look around in your community. Volunteer work can expose you to many different people and their stories. You might come across a couple who has been through a lot together but still has a strong bond. Their story could be a real in love story. Also, local events and festivals can be places where you meet people with interesting love stories.
We could simply accept it and move on. Maybe look back on the good times we had and learn from the bad. It's not always easy, but it might be for the best.
Acceptance is key. We should first come to terms with the fact that it has ended. Then, we can look back and learn from the experiences in the story. If it was a bad ending, we can use it as a lesson for future relationships or situations.
Love and warmth. It's likely to show the beautiful side of a relationship.
