Story 1: In the ward of a hospital, there were two patients who were both in serious condition.

The room is very small and can only accommodate two beds. The ward has a door and a window that opens onto a hallway through which you can see the outside world.

One of the patients was allowed to sit up for an hour each morning and afternoon. The patient's bed was near the window.

Another patient had to lie in a hospital bed day and night. Of course, both patients need to be treated in recuperation.

What made them particularly distressed was that their illness did not allow them to do anything for recreation, neither reading books nor newspapers, nor listening to the radio or watching television...... Can only lie quietly.

And it's just the two of them.

Story 2: The two often talk for hours.

They talked about their families, their wives and children, their jobs, and their own

What was done during the war, where did you go on vacation, etc.

Every morning and afternoon, when the time is up, the patient near the window is helped up and begins an hour-long sit-on session.

At this point, he began to describe to his companions what he saw outside the window.

Gradually, these two hours a day became almost the entire content of his life and that of his companions.

Obviously, this window overlooks a park with a lake of wild ducks and swans.

Some of the children in the park are throwing bread to feed the waterfowl, and some are fiddling with model yachts.

A young couple holding hands and walking in the woods.

The park is full of flowers, mainly roses, but it is also surrounded by colorful peonies and calendula.

At the other end of the park, there is a tennis court, where sometimes the matches are really exciting, and there are a few cricket matches from time to time, although the game is not up to the level of the official final, but it is better to see than nothing.

There's also a lawn over there for playing with wooden balls.

At the end of the park is a row of shops looming behind the downtown area.

The lying patient listened to all this with relish. Every minute of this moment was a treat for him.

Story 3: The description continues: how a child almost fell into the lake, and how beautiful a girl in a summer dress is.

Then came a thrilling tennis match.

He listened to the vivid description, as if he had seen what was happening outside the window.

One afternoon, when he heard a patient by the window talking about a cricket player slowly hitting the ball all over the place, the patient who was not near the window suddenly had an idea:

Why is it that the person next to the window is lucky enough to see everything outside the window?

Why don't you deserve this opportunity?

He was ashamed of his thoughts and tried not to think so. However, the more restrained he became, the stronger this thought became.

He was troubled by this thought all the time, and at night, he couldn't sleep all night. As a result, the condition worsened day by day, but the doctors did not know the cause of the aggravation.

Story 4: One night, he stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, as usual.

At this time, his companion by the window suddenly woke up, began to cough loudly, shortness of breath, intermittently, the liquid had filled his lung cavity, he groped with both hands, looking for the button of the electric bell, as soon as the electric bell rang, the nurse on duty immediately arrived.

However, the patient who was not close to the window watched without moving.

I thought: Why did he occupy the bed in the window?

Painful coughing sounds, one after another...... Stuck ...... Stopped...... Eventually, the sound of breathing stopped.

The patient who is not by the window is still staring at the ceiling.

The next morning, the paramedics found that the patient by the window had lost his breath, and they quietly carried the body out.

After a few days, as if it had been properly spoken, the remaining patient immediately asked if he could be moved to the bed at the window.

The paramedics carried him over and settled him comfortably into the hospital bed.

Then they left the room, leaving him alone and lying quietly.

As soon as the doctor left, the patient struggled in agony, propped up on one arm, and panted for breath.

He looked out the window:

All he saw was a bare wall.

To change your mindset is to change your life. The past is irretrievable, tomorrow is still unknown, only the present is real. Don't pay for yesterday, don't fight the past, and if you fall, get up and keep running. Even if suffering is destined to come tomorrow, there is no need to pay for it today. Try to take care of today, tomorrow will surprise you.

The heartache is like someone pinching it hard, so painful that I dare not breathe, and it is like being drained of air, lack of oxygen, and there is a stinging pain
