Sunshine Will Keep Us Aliv

Another walk in the bright sunshine. When the warm sunshine hit me in my face, it really feels good.

The weather over the past few days is unusually clear. Looking above, the sun is dazzling beautiful and the sky is kind of Caribbean blue. If it were not for the poor trees without leaves standing along the street or the cool wind blowing from time to time, the warm sunshine will simply give you the impression that the spring is already here. Spring, what a wonderful word for a wonderful world.

Just completed a horrible translation project the day before yesterday. I was nearly tired to death after that. Besides fatigue, I feel a kind of emptiness in my heart that’s hard to define. Many things happened lately, which reminds me that life is not that easy as I expected long before. However, time goes on, so does everything. Complaint just doesn’t make any sense.

You cannot expect many beautiful things in a populous and noisy city like this. Most of the time, you have to bear dirty air, annoying noise, polluted water and food and so on. What’s worse, the living environment might be something that worries you the least, compared to other complicated things in life. Some people say it’s hard to live a life, ‘cause they must face many existing and upcoming problems; some others might argue that you will just get a life and much fun if you find something or someone worthy of your interest or love. Both are true to some extent.

Taking everything into account, however, the simplest solution might be to calm youself down and go for a walk in a sunny day (like recent days). Looking at the sky and everything in the sunshine, you’ll find the world is really a place worthy of living. Problems will be solved and everything will be ok as long as you just let it ride sometimes. Few people can afford such a seemingly easy attitude towards life, though. And that might be the source of our pains and sorrows.

There are many beautiful things in our life, such as flowers, food, sunshine, friendship, love, and the nature as a whole. Sometimes people just attatch too much importance to something they value at some point of their life and in turn ignore many other beautiful things. Perhaps, when they go for a carefree walk in a sunny afternoon, they will suddenly realize that something is always there pleasant to their mind. Sunshine is such a thing. I have no idea when I changed my mind, but I don’t believe love will keep us alive when we are hungry any more. Instead, I began to firmly believe that the nutritional and delicious sunshine will keep us alive all the time.
