Cherish the present life. There is a wonderful logic: live every day carefully and tomorrow will be better and better. This is true, please believe me.

The last chapter was read with tears, not the kind of emotion that deliberately lied and read tears. The words are calm and gentle, like a mother's gentle hand. Lion House, a shelter, is located on an island in the Seto Inland Sea. Every "guest" here will come to the end of his life, including the elderly, young women and children who are unfortunately suffering from incurable diseases. If only I could spend it in such a warm hospice before I die! I'm ashamed to say that I haven't seen the author's other works before. They are also treatment departments, which are somewhat different from those in Kotaro Isaka, but they also suit my taste.

Reading a book in one breath is a typical Japanese healing story. The so-called happiness is to spend an ordinary day in trivial and harmless complaints when you are clearly in happiness but don't feel it. Also, "it's hard to live. When you meet something delicious, you have to taste it with a smile."

Is this book to save my bad mood these days? I guess my chicken is hopeless. I hope I can learn everything about life and death taught in the book.

A person's life is like a candle. Candles cannot be lit by themselves, nor can they be extinguished by themselves. Once the candle is lit, you can only wait for the moment when the candle torch turns to ashes. Of course, it will occasionally go out like your biological parents under the great external force. Life means being someone's light. Consume your own life and become the light of others. Only in this way can people illuminate each other.

The most beautiful moment is before the candle goes out. We patients who spend our last days in the lion house are called guests. Whenever a guest dies, the candle at the main entrance will be lit and burn quietly for 24 hours. The remains of the guests were transported out of the main entrance and sent to be cremated. It's not the same as dying in a hospital. In the hospital, the bodies of the dead are always carried away quietly from the back door, trying not to attract attention. "What is heaven?"

"Probably a bit like a nearsighted person for a long time, can't see anything clearly. Suddenly, he got a pair of glasses that matched him well, which made his eyes shine. Everything becomes particularly clear, perhaps it can be said that the dimension is completely different from before? Compared with it, the world before death is simply primitive. " In this world, there are two kinds of pain.

One is physical pain, and the other is mental pain.

If you don't overcome these two kinds of pain at the same time, there will be no good ending. The reason why I can't sleep, in addition to physical pain, is mainly because of strong mental anxiety. We can understand anxiety as' delusion'. Once people are bound by delusion, they are prone to insomnia. Delusion is unnecessary. We need to force our bodies to sleep to ignore our own illusions. Just like hanging a carrot in front of a horse to make it run faster, I am looking forward to rice porridge in the morning, buffet at noon, one soup and three dishes in the evening and afternoon tea on Sunday. Hey, why is it all about food? Anyway, I hung a lot of carrots like this for myself. Therefore, if I can extend these expectations to my death, I will feel redeemed and move forward with my own expectations. I am so happy that I can't help reading this email several times. As a result, I couldn't make up my mind. Should I spend the whole night savoring this joy and then reply slowly, or should I reply immediately with the mood of "taking advantage of now"? At this moment, my heart yearns for a kiss inexplicably. In short, at this moment, I hope someone can cover my lips with his body temperature. This is the first time I kissed each other, and this is the first experience in my life.

At this moment, I have no choice but to kiss. It seems that if we don't break through this barrier, there will only be a broad road ahead. For the first time in my life since I got sick, I understand that some things can't be bought with money. When I realized this, I found that there are things everywhere in the world that can't be exchanged with money.

Fruit has a reason, and everyone can only sow, cultivate, harvest and harvest by themselves. Funnily enough, I didn't notice the beauty of bananas until it became more and more inconvenient to move. I have never observed this fruit carefully before, and I have neither time nor will. I brought back a banana from the canteen the other day and put it on the table in the house. I will be hungry.

Eat again. Just as I reached for it and was ready to eat, the banana suddenly said to me:

"Am I pretty?"

I hear bananas. This is a slightly nasal, inexplicably charming voice. "He said that he used to be unsmiling, so he envied his colleagues and subordinates who told humorous jokes without restraint."

"It's hard to imagine." I said. "He also said that he hated himself and wanted to make a role change at the last moment of his life." The girl in the photo is really me. Her smile does not belong to me who used to be healthy, nor to me who is sick now, but to us. That's why I think this girl is the real me. The other way in her life is not to go to the opposite destination, but to adjust the direction slightly, but she has no feeling when she sets foot on that road, and once she sets foot on it, there is no room for regret. It doesn't matter if it's not a home run to turn things around, because people can't easily change their lifestyle after all. The greater significance of life lies in not giving up until the last moment and striving for change. I gently picked up Peony cake wrapped in soybean powder and took a small bite, as if giving it a kiss. Maybe he doesn't understand that illness is not a reason to exempt all behaviors. I can't end my life with this barren heart and doing nothing. I have never mentioned these ideas to anyone before. Being angry because you are sick will make your inner self more angry. It is cruel to use "please come on" to loudly motivate people who have tried their best. I want to hug myself from behind with my arms and gently comfort myself behind her:

This is hard work. For a long time, you have been trying to live.

A beautiful death is enough to deserve a full life.

For the first time in my life since I got sick, I understand that some things can't be bought with money. It was not until I realized this that I found that there were things everywhere in the world that could not be bought with money.

Looking back on this life, I feel a little meaningful. It has given me all kinds of flavors. Maybe it exists just to let me learn how to accept loss.

The greater significance of life lies in never giving up until the last moment and striving for change.

As long as people are alive, they have the opportunity to change everything.

Dim sum is the nourishment of the soul and the reward of life.

Life means being someone's light. Consume your own life and become the light of others. Only in this way can people illuminate each other. Just like the heroine and her father, they have been supporting each other and working hard for many years.

There must be something invisible between people. Living itself can be the light of others and shine on each other.

Madonna once said that there are two kinds of pain in this world. One is physical pain, and the other is mental pain. If you don't overcome these two kinds of pain at the same time, there will be no good ending.

Life needs to be beautiful, not long. Yoshida Kenko said in Grass in vain: "Everything is wrong, needless to say, it is not enough."
