A Western artist said: There are two kinds of life, one is called a miserable life, and the other is called a very miserable life. What to do? He said: Art can help us avoid the latter. Oriental thought even has such a meaning: life is suffering, and suffering is life. In short, as long as people live, there is no escape from hardship. The East and the West are on the same planet, so it makes sense that they coincide here. For example, is it okay to give it a phrase of "the vast white earth is really clean"? Say yes, think about it, but believe it or not, in fact, it can't? Unless you can escape from "life" to "death", from "being" to "nothing". What, is that simple? So let's talk about how to go from "being" to "nothing". Well, even if you do enter, then there is no more, but there will be another state of being. Therefore, there is no hope of being born and dying – "death" is either another form of "life" or it has to be "nothing", and "nothing" is not what we have already said. The question is: In the face of an inescapable road, should it be better to walk in the land of singing and dancing and thinking and asking, or should it be better to walk in a muddy and scolding way? No matter how you go, it seems that there is still an element of helplessness. Yes, even the great Nietzsche's "Dionysian spirit" can also see this helplessness. But why have you ever thought about it? Think about it. There must still be a hope that refuses to give up: the end. There must still be a doubt that cannot be dispelled: where do we go? This is really the stubborn legacy left to us by the logic of life. In fact, has anyone ever seen the "head"? The end, if it is nothing, it cannot be the end, if it is none, then there is still none, brother! Give up your stubborn legacy, or extend it one step further: is it not better to go on the eternal path than to reach the end? The wise have seen the basis for optimism.
