十月 I 愿生命，充满可能性
One of the mixed blessings of being twenty and twenty-one and even twenty-three is the conviction that nothing like this, all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding, has ever happened to anyone before.
– Goodbye To All That, Essayist, Joan Didion

九月开学季
希望大家新学年伊始，记得聆听自己内心的声音，然后勇往直前，创造出属于自己的独特人生。
Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, juct once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.
— Letters to a Young Poet, Poet, Rainer Maria Rilke
