I can’t live in the life I want

“Go on a trip that is decided on a whim” is what most people wanted, precisely because this is what everyone is longing for, but very few people have done it.

There are many reasons, maybe have no money, no time, no preparation ...

We are not geniuses, nor fools; we are not like Strickland in "The Moon and Sixpence", cold-blooded, and really doesn’t care about the people around, he can abandon the stable life of a stockbroker, abandon the beautiful wife and lovely child, and give up the position that everyone admires.
Endure hunger, endure poverty, endure censure, just to stubbornly paint.

We are not like Gump in "Forrest Gump", don’t understand other people's cynicism, don’t understand that selfish and dark human nature. When chased by other people, in front of the girl he likes "run, run, just run" shouted out desperately and run, to win his dignity.

At the end of his life, with luck and unknown foolishness, from time to time escape the disaster, and win his life.

But we are ordinary people; an average person can't become what they want but become the kind of people they have to become.

I don’t really agree to “Go on a trip that is decided on a whim”. The present age is an age of logical thinking; this is an era when thinking ability is required to be improved, and the era when resource integration is constantly solicited.

First of all, where are you going, wandering? Then, if you're not prepared for anything, what are you going to do? Finally, you will find that in fact, “Go on a trip that is decided on a whim” is your escape from the work pressure and excuses for your reality.

The reality is ironic and explicit; you may be very uncomfortable to read this because what I wrote is the truth.

Well, let me tell you a story: A homeless man and a rich and powerful person basking in the sand on the beach, the homeless man said: "You are rich and powerful, in the end, you are still basking under the sun with me."

The rich man said, although we are basking under the sun together, but I can live a richer life, I have seen a larger sea than this, I have been to more than this island. I chose to bask here, because I have a choice, but do you have a choice? The homeless man was speechless.

We may not live our ideal life, but we can make each of our days extraordinary.

An average person will have pressure in life, all kinds of burdens on the shoulder, play a variety of roles, and gradually lost themselves, but have you ever thought of, after giving up everything on you, giving up playing all the roles, will you really know what’s your dream is?

Everyone gets something by losing something.

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes;
By the deep sea, and music in its roar;
I love not man the less, but nature more
—— Lord Byron
