Let tears leave behind weariness

   I don't know why, but tears always well up in my eyes without my noticing. Some say it's because I cry so much that it's become a habit, while others try to brush me off with excuses like "I'm sick."

  I know, who cries in ordinary times? Only extraordinary people do.

  Tears are water, but they're salty; tears are liquid, and once they fall, no one can stop them; tears are blood left in the heart, and once they fall, they leave a painful scar.

  I'm tired. My tears are actually a warning that my body is exhausted. But I can't rest, no, I can't. I have to work for my life, for my family, and for myself, so I can't rest. Even knowing this, I still can't. My tears slide down my face like a slide, impossible to catch, evaporating with the air. And the tear stains, let them accompany me through time.

Don't compare them to other children; let them surpass themselves.   It's said that without comparison, there is no harm. This applies not only to adults but also to children. Some parents always compare their children to others, which can lead child...

I haven't forgotten Quanzhou Third Lane

   I've lived in Quanzhou for half my life, and in Dongjie for so many years, I've never walked through Sanxiang Lane, even though it's right next door. Sometimes I would pass by without paying much attention; it's just a typical southern alley, 200-300 meters long   and 2 meters wide. Someone who's lived in this city for over 20 years without much worldly success moved in to save on rent. I was fortunate enough to record a small segment of this alley's long history. At the intersection of Sanxiang Lane and Wenling Road, there's a newly built residential area—though it's been 15 years since then. The ground floor is like any other building, with shops on the ground floor. Across the street are some older houses, urban villages. The buildings along the roadside are also shops: senior citizens' associations, small factories, cigarette shops, hair salons, breakfast stalls, and fried dough twists—they were delicious, coated in sugar, and I often bought t...
