your hardwork

You run at night, and you record your life with your pen and strokes.

Even if you are always in the sea of words, in the wait and see of fame, fortune and achievements, forget the path of the intestines that you are walking. You are still on this path, trying to get out of your own light.

Yeah, what an inconspicuous little thing to write. The mind written down will never be erased. Although the memory has faded with age, the body is sealed by the coffin and burned by the fire, the text has been buried in an unknown corner since then, and the traces of your life are still engraved by you, no matter what day it is.

There are too many stars in this world, disappearing at the end of the night. And why do you have to be remembered by anyone? Anyone who remembers it proves that your hard work has paid off? But the reward for your hard work is exactly what you're trying to say right now. Even if the shimmering light you wield does not shine on the people around you, it may bring a little fire to someone in the distance.

If you seek more returns in your efforts, it is just consumption in disguise, your efforts at the moment. And if you spend too much effort expending your efforts, the further away you are from the bottom of the gold mine.

Perhaps, your efforts are less like an echo echoing in the valley, and more like a rocket launched. You will never know at what point in your life you will see the image from the rocket again. And that image is enough to change your life, reorganize your view of life, like an interstellar effect.

Despite the stardust you have, only you can see it. It doesn't matter at all, those are self-evident.

You are the bright star in the universe.
