I just haven't gone all out yet

Thirty or forty is an awkward age.

If a person suddenly dies at the age of thirty or forty, everyone will say, "It's a pity to die at such a young age!" ”

If a person in his thirties and forties suddenly wants to quit his job and do what he wants to do, everyone will say, "They are still restless at such an old age, and it is too late to start doing anything at such an old age." ”

The same age, do different things, one will be considered very young, one will be considered very old.

So, if you keep living according to the world's opinion, you will become a young and old freak.

I recently watched a Japanese movie, "I Just Haven't Gone All My Strength Yet," about a big Black Shizuo who is over forty years old, who suddenly quits his stable job one day, saying that he wants to find himself.

After resigning, Shizuo Ohguro played games at home every day. When his father asked him what he really wanted to do, he said he wanted to live a regret-free life and find his true self.

After a month of decadence, one day Shizuo suddenly said that he had found his goal in life and that he wanted to become a manga artist! Hearing this, the elderly father was angrily left with tears of despair; the 17-year-old daughter asked him, can you paint?

Isn't that where most of us are:

When people reach middle age, they have elderly parents and underage children, and they are forced to do a boring job that they don't like day after day, but if they resign, the family economy will be unable to continue. I want to do what I want to do, but I don't have enough talent and ability.

I don't want to live a chaotic life, but I don't have the courage and ability to change my destiny.

Shizuo, who seems to be a waste of firewood, made a decision that we normal people dare not make: to resign and become a manga artist.

We both envy his bravery in desperate pursuit of his dreams, and mock his naïveté in disregard of reality.

He may succeed or he may fail.

If he succeeds, we will envy his success and despise our own cowardice.

If he fails, we will rejoice and laugh at his inadequacy.

But, without a doubt, we cannot deny his courage.

His perseverance in his pursuit of his dreams touched the people around him, his good friend resigned to open a bakery under his influence, the editor of the publishing house he contacted was also moved to resign and do what he really wanted to do, and her daughter also worked hard to support the family so that her father had time to create and become a cartoonist.

We can't decide whether things work or not, but we can decide what we do.

When we were young, we all had beautiful ideals, and our ideals were not to be a busy, boring and boring worker. But as time passes, as we encounter more and more setbacks, we gradually abandon our ideals, we go with the flow, we succumb to reality.

Our hearts are covered in thick dust, and we have lived from angels as children to middle-aged laymen.

The light of dreams flashing in our eyes gradually extinguishes, and we become vulgar and empty.

We are cynical, but we dare not change the status quo.

We laugh at the bravery of others and use it to hide our cowardice.

We often say: Is it possible that at a young age, I will waste my life like this?

We often say: If I relearn something new and start a new dream, I will be too old, right?

We have always believed that the most important thing in life is success or failure, but in fact, the most important thing in life may only be experience.

No child will give up learning to walk for fear of falling;

No sailor would give up sailing for fear of being buried in the sea;

No climber will give up the mountain for fear of falling off a cliff;

Because they are chasing dreams rather than success or failure.

Why do we always hesitate to make promises?
