1)    There are two men: A and B both in their thirties.

A , never has a formal-sector job, has no house or car, and is unmarried. Aside from being unsociable, he prefers playing old-fashioned computer games. And something goes wrong with his gall bladder.

B, stays abroad in Paris learning Art History. He is a freelance having special column online. Meanwhile he travels a different country once a month. Also, he got an intimate girlfriend abroad with him.

So, from your perspective, who seems to lead a more remarkable life ?

2)    There are another two men, C and D both in their sixties.

C, had been working for nearly 40 years with a nine-to-five job. Yet he does not get much savings. He learned to drive as old as 45. Now he is retired.

D, has been good at running, swimming, playing basketball and playing the flute since his childhood. He knows how to brewage rice wine. He loves reading and travelling. When he was young, he toured most of China and cycled across all the Yangtze River Bridges, 9 in total located in various regions. Now he leads a free and easy life, going for a drive with his wife every day.

So, from your viewpoint, who seems to lead a more splendid life ?

Actually, it is just a trick here. A and B is the same person.

Likewise, C and D share the same identity. The former is a Chinese network writer Zhang Jiawei I awfully admire while the latter is his father. The above stories are quoted from his autobiography.

      See, a person can embrace a disparate lifestyle to outsiders, only by different depictions with language. Plain and brief words render impressions of sameness and insipidity toward one’s life while arresting and detailed descriptions play a role of glorification. Language has the power of altering the presentation of one’s life for beholders, whether it is marvelous or monotonous. However, what’s life originally look like?

     It is up to our own comprehension about life meaning.

     Human beings are inclined to seek after dramatic life experience. That is human nature. And also that’s the reason why people tend to consider those with brilliant and theatrical life experience as winners in life. As a result, most people are flocking to reach the peak of life, to touch sort of remarkableness in their eyes, even at the expense of health and happiness.

      But they overlook a fact that there are 86400 seconds a day for everyone. Other than those enviable moments, everyone has to share sameness and insipidity of daily life. If you aspire for an extraordinary life , just strive to get it realized. But don’t forget to enjoy the rest of your time spent with commonplace.

The basic essence of life should lie in the way of getting ordinary remarkable. Learn to appreciate life, and something unexpected will call on you someday. I have faith in that. What's your point? Please share with me.
