As the saying goes, hard work leads to success. However, some people manage to reach their goals and live the life they want just by having enough money.

In this picture, you can see two people making their way up the big steps. One person struggles up a large staircase with a purple backpack, and the other person climbs easily on smaller steps made of money with a blue backpack. With small steps made of money, climbing to the next level is no struggle at all for this person. You can even notice that every single banknote is marked with a value of ten thousand. If you count them all, the money-built staircase is worth nearly 10.8 million dollars ~ no wonder success comes easily.

In my opinion, the person with the purple backpack could symbolize the effort and determination it takes to achieve success, while the person with the blue backpack might represent how wealth can sometimes make things easier for some people. It’s an interesting commentary on the different paths to success. But it also reveals the realistic side of the world. Isn't success not only about hard work, but also about having enough money to make it happen? However, the person carrying the purple backpack also reflects that no matter how hard or slow the climb may be, he will eventually reach the highest peak, the top of the staircase. And he managed to climb to the top without spending a single penny. So I suppose he'll end up with more savings than the one carrying the blue backpack (? Hahaha

This picture makes me think about several problems in modern society, including wealth disparity and unequal access to education. The children from wealthy families at the top are using stacks of cash as stairs, and can attend prestigious schools, have tutors, and participate in extracurricular activities. And the other children from low-income families often lack access to education, healthcare, and social networks, making it hard for them to move up in life. No matter how hard they work. This symbolizes the unequal distribution of resources. Therefore, in order to address this issue, some governments provide a lot of financial aid and subsidies to disadvantaged families to help their children achieve their goals.

To everyone watching, I just want to say: don't give up on yourself, even if you feel like you don't have enough resources and connections. Keep believing, keep pushing forward, and one day, your efforts will pay off.

Alright, that's all for today's content. Thanks for reading.

Modern people are no longer reading books. They keep up with the times and use electronic devices daily to stay informed about current events.

Sometimes pretending to be fine doesn't mean it's really fine. I hope that people living in this world will remain kind, observant, and understanding.

上周都在罵人的感覺? 對,因為道德性的東西,講下去沒完沒了,太多社會常識要自己去體驗,不是上網找資料,故罵一罵比較快。

這是一場修復文化與重建精神的儀式,觀眾不需要完全看懂《遊林驚夢:巧遇Hagay》,但你能感受心與土地團聚的渴望,也不急著在此處釐清或定義什麼,但你的在場感受,就是一條線索,關於如何找著自己的路徑、自己的聲音。
