I just realized it has been one and a half year since my lauching this personal blog website by looking at the dates on “Archives” (the column is on the right side). It’s surprised to see that this blog actually started from September 2007. Time flies by so quickly and silently and I believe life is, to certain extent, flying quickly and silently.
Looking back at the past one and half year, the first ever jumping to my mind is–nothing. Seriously, I simply cannot get any conclusive image for the past one and half year, though there were lots of big and determinant moments. We are pursuing whatever we want to, and some of us simply get lost on the way to the destination, while others lost their original motivation and turning to just moving along. We never think of something seriously only after we encountered them accidentally in our life.
Reading Simone de Beauvoir’s A Very Easy Death (I started reading this book maybe more than 1.5 years ago, but finished it about 1 year ago.) refreshes my retrospectives on this finale moment of a human’s life. It happens so quickly, some smoothly, some not. While not everyone would think of this issue sympathetically, I always feel sorrow but quite natural when thinking of it. As everything else in the universe, when there is a beginning, we would anticipate there is a ending. This also applies to any human life.
Now it is time to end this blog, just like how I promptly opened it. Suede’s hitting song “everything will flow” is one of my favorite songs among all. We know everything will flow, but we should also know they will leave remnants on their way flowing, which we cannot deny. I think the best one can do is to accept it, just like to accept all your facets, good or bad. Finally, Suede’s another song “so young” is also one of my favorite. I believe there is no finale performance and the destination is the blue sky.
