Today is already November 1; time marches on relentlessly. I found myself thinking about how we live our lives on Earth. We usually spend 12 to 16 years going to school during our youth and pass our final years in weakened or poor health. This leaves about five decades for us to work, seek pleasure, and do what we like. During this period, we usually become attached to many worldly things. Yet, compared to eternity, the average lifetime doesn't even last a nanosecond. All the things we are attached to will vanish the moment we pass away, so there is no point in letting the world ensnare us. We must learn to enjoy all the good things in life freely, meaning we can let them go if we have to. Being resolute and decisive—moving on and never looking back—is the true way to follow Christ.
