Milan Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" has such a phrase:

People will never know what they want because people can only live once. It cannot be compared to the world, nor can it be amended in the afterlife. There is no way to test which choice is right, because there is no comparison, and all first experiences are only once and cannot be prepared.

We will face many choices in our life. Some choices can be changed, but others can’t.

For choices that can be changed, we can naturally start from scratch, but for some that don't touch the law, don't touch the moral bottom line of choice, since we made the choice, we must bravely move on.

After Candy graduated, her family wants her to return to hometown and find a stable job. For a girl, having a stable job is the best. But if Candy goes back to her hometown, she will miss the freshness and excitement of the outside world, and her life is just beginning.

After some entanglement, she finally made the decision to stay in the city to work.

But less than three months of work in the city, she began to hesitate, doesn't know whether she made the right choice. Because her first three months is the probation period, the salary is very low, after paying the rent, the remaining part is only enough to pay the water and electricity bills, not even enough for food, let alone clothes and others. If it is not for her family to provide relief, it is estimated that she can only persist for one month.

When she thinks so, she felt that she should listen to her parents, because it was too hard to work alone outside.

Human is like this, always hope for the best, but when meets a little setback after start, began to doubt whether they had made the wrong choice, only a few people will think about how to find the real confidence and self-confidence from the choices.

Haneda Airport in Japan, won the title "cleanest airport in the world," for 2013 and 2014. And the person who responsible for this honor was a cleaning staff, Haruko Niitsu.

Haruko Niitsu, a Chinese-Japanese half-breed, was born in China and her father was Japanese. In China, all her classmates and neighbors discriminated against her and asked her to go back to Japan. When her family moved to Japan at the age of 17, she thought that returning to Japan would put an end to the situation of discrimination, but she was still being bullied by the people around.

And the hardships of family life, Haruko Niitsu can only work as a cleaner.

Cleaner doesn’t have a high status in the social, because of these suffering experience, forcing Haruko to have a strong desire: "Since I can only do cleaning, then put it to the extreme!"

It is with such a belief, she worked strenuously in work, in a very low social status cleaning work become world-class level.

The experience of suffering for the strong is a valuable asset, but for the weak is undoubtedly the abyss, the difference lies in your attitude towards suffering.

Courage is when you choose the life you want, and even if you know you will lose before you start, but you still have to do it and stick to it anyway.

You only live once, since you already made the choice, don’t doubt yourself, walk the road you want to walk, love the one who loves you, and then live a good life carefreely!
