This year's Youth Day is
Wednesday, May 4, 2022
The fourth day of the first month of April in the lunar year
The 103rd anniversary of the May Fourth Movement
Youth Day, originated
The May Fourth Movement of 1919.
On May 4 of that year,
Countless Chinese youth,
To resist imperialist oppression,
Volunteering to take to the streets,
Cry out the anger of your heart,
Full of blood, a piece of Dan heart,
For the country, for the home, but also for the ideal.
A hundred years later, looking back again,
I still can't help but be shocked and encouraged.
However, every year on Youth Day,
The atmosphere always seemed deserted.
Some people say, "I'm old."
But Youth Day is up;
It has been said that although they are young people,
But without the exuberance of that era,
I always feel far away from myself...
Actually, as Barkin said,
There is a radio station in your heart,
As long as it receives beauty, hope, rejoicing,
A message of bravery, solemnity and strength,
Just be young forever.
Youth is always a state of mind,
Regardless of age, regardless of situation,
It's just about how you live.
01
Youth is in the heart, regardless of age
Wang Xiaobo in "Red Breeze Night Run",
Wrote such a passage,
People are full of impulses to do things when they are young,
Endlessly changing everything,
When these impulses suddenly disappeared, he was old.
When I was young,
There is always an inexhaustible fighting spirit,
Always want to change the world,
Always want to create something.
Just like the young people of those days,
Frank and firm, confident and brave,
Knowing that you can't do it,
Will that dark age,
Cut out the light.
Just like Wang Xiaobo, although his mouth said,
Later I learned,
Life is a slow process of hammering,
People grow old day by day,
Luxury hope also disappears day by day,
Finally it became like a hammered cow.
In his hand, he never put down his pen.
When the Golden Age was published,
He is nearly forty years old,
Since then, novels, essays, essays,
It is written one after another, and the department is wonderful,
What a little hammered old cow look!
Some readers said,
"Wang Xiaobo, he is a teenager all his life."
Regardless of age, all in the state of mind,
As long as there is still the impulse to move forward,
Just be young forever.
02
Time has passed, and enthusiasm has passed
Compared with the turmoil of the war years,
For a new generation of young people,
It's more about the trivialities of a peaceful life.
There is no stirring in the history books,
There is no spirit in the movie,
So come on Youth Day,
It always seems like something is missing.
We are always used to it
Shocked by the king, cover the tears of the hero,
But we forget that each of us must return to the ordinary.
In fact, in every era,
There is a definition of each era.
For that era,
The spirit of youth lies in resistance,
And for us at this moment,
Youth is to "live well in the present."
Even if you are disappointed in the world,
Nor indelible the spark in the heart,
Even if temporarily discouraged,
Also don't forget the impulsive enthusiasm;
Can't do the back wave,
The undercurrent under the surface of the water is still raging,
There is no hope in sight,
You must also yearn for the light.
As Mr. Lu Xun said,
Get rid of the air conditioner and just go up,
Do things that can be done, make a sound that can be heard.
There is a point of heat, a point of light,
Just like fireworks,
You can also shine a little light in the darkness,
You don't have to wait for the torch.
03
In a complex world, live purely
The look of youth in my mind,
There is always a figure of Park Shu, who is in his 20s.
The young man who was desperate for music,
Once desperately admitted to college,
Pending the acceptance letter down,
And he went off to make music.
And left a sentence for the parents,
"This is for you, I'm not going."
The first album of his life was released,
Overnight the fire was a mess,
If you change to someone else,
Will desperately package themselves,
But he would rather pretend to be ill than take a business performance.
Park Shu is different from all the singers I've ever seen,
No, he's different from everyone I've ever met.
He was so innocent that he didn't look like someone in our world.
I just want to concentrate on making music.
20-year-old park tree, simple as a tree.
Park Shu and brother Pu Seok
But later,
He was still caught in the whirlpool of life,
Interviews should be received, announcements should be run, and commercial performances should be performed.
To learn to be hypocritical,
Hide your true self...
But youth is youth,
The grown-up Park Shu did not compromise in the end.
He hid where there was only himself,
There, re-examine yourself,
Rethink the relationship with the world,
Learn to reconcile with life.
In the album he came back on,
There is such a lyric,
"It is not too late to return today,
Start again with the deceased, naïve as a teenager. ”
Seeing him standing on the stage of commercial performances,
But still sincere at that moment,
This suddenly understood, even if the world changes,
If the heart is pure, it can flow fearlessly.

Time is not stained, and the return is still a teenager
Su Shi is 45 years old and still shouting:
"Who says that there is nothing less in life?
The water in front of the door is still possible! Hugh will sing yellow chicken with white hair";
Lu You is 68 years old, "The Iron Horse Glacier Comes to Sleep",
The sideburns are white, and they are still willing to defend the land;
Zhong Nanshan, 84 years old, rushed to the front line of the epidemic several times;
Yuan Longping, 90 years old, jokingly called himself a "post-90s",
He said that he would never retire and insisted on going to the field every day
......
The United Nations will be between the ages of 15-24,
Divided into youth;
The World Health Organization will be between the ages of 14-44,
Divided into youth.
In fact, whether it is 44 years old or 14 years old,
Age is not the criterion for dividing youth,
Youth in the heart, regardless of age,
If the heart is not old, it is often young.
The best tribute to youth,
It's about being a better version of yourself.
This Youth Day,
May you live a thousand sails, and do not change your original intention,
May your time pass and your enthusiasm remain,
May your world be as rich and clean as ever,
Love what you love, do what you do,
Living a steaming life,
And always with hope!
