Tell me how you got through the trough of your life.

The bottom of my life should be when my career and family changed dramatically four years ago. Father died of illness unfortunately. He left suddenly, and we were unprepared. It was only half a month from diagnosis to death. Three months later, when I was still immersed in the grief of losing my father forever, I was organizationally arranged to transfer from the army to a local job. I am about to take off my military uniform for 20 years and face the second employment choice in my life. For me, the local work is completely blank. 38 years old, and I have to start all over again. My house, my wife's job and my children's education are all in my mind. I am reluctant, confused, afraid, and mixed feelings. For about a month, I locked myself in my room and stayed indoors. Extreme depression makes my biological clock disorder, and I often can't sleep all night. Later, under the arrangement of my wife, we signed up for a tour of Shandong organized by a travel agency. When I reached the top of Mount Tai, I really appreciated its grandeur and lofty aspiration of "reaching the top, the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky.", which was described by Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, in his poem "Looking at Yue". Being in the endless depths of the ocean, I feel the vastness, mystery and fearlessness of the sea. Accompanied and comforted by my wife all the way, we ended our trip to Shandong, and my mood gradually came out of the trough.
