Life is filled with perplexities. Despite an outward sense of order, an inner void often troubles us. This isn't uncommon; it's a shared human experience. While we amass knowledge, the knowledge of "how to live" is lacking, as we wrongly assume it's self - evident. This leads to nihilistic confusion.
The question of "how to live" is fundamental. Without an answer, we feel empty and unfulfilled. Simple preferences are easy to determine, but this existential question demands deeper exploration. Understanding "life" is crucial before pondering "how to live."
Huiye(Author of text) provides a guiding life - narrative. It's like a tour, uncovering life's details and overall picture. Making the right life choices is like answering a multiple - choice question, needing clear understanding of all aspects.
People's life choices differ. Some choose a brief glorious moment over a long ordinary life, or a year of wonder over years of mediocrity. Those sacrificing for principles may find their motivation here. We're unique beings, not mindless, and deserve a purposeful life.
A fulfilling life is linked to beauty and using our talents. Untapped talents bring inner frustration as we recognize our potential.
Huiye guides, not dictates. It shows life's "scenes" and stories. We make the final choices. Learning to live is a lifelong journey. Without growth, we have a limited view, like frogs in a well. Life calls for progress, observation, and evolution.
This work has a preface, two sections (background and guided tour), and three dilemmas: "where do I come from," "who am I," and "where am I going." Each dilemma has three elements, and each article three themes. The independent texts can be read separately or together, aiming to reveal life's essence and help us make wise decisions at life's crossroads.
