In fact, I have been wanting to write something for a long time, and as I get older, this idea grows day by day, and perhaps, as it is often said, the older we get, the more we will remember the past.

As a very young people have always loved literature, love writing, I used to write for love in my youth, singing for love, that era is free and uninhibited, is unrestrained years, only for the momentary joy and sorrow and can be long songs and howling, drunk and crying, but all this with the passage of time, our temperament has also changed, in college, graduation, work, this kind of writing consciousness is getting weaker and weaker, and then marriage, childbirth, The hardships of life have worn out the only trace of literary cells he has. I only occasionally sigh when I turn over some poems and articles I wrote when I was young, is that what I used to write? Maybe it's because the teenager doesn't know the taste of sorrow, maybe it's because of the new words to say sorrow, some people and things that have gone through in my ignorant youth have faded out of my memory, but some of them are always clearer and clearer in the dead of night.

After experiencing the ignorance of the first entry into society, the hardships of going deep into society, getting married and having children, and gradually stabilizing my life, I decided to pick up my lost dreams and write about my brothers, friends, and former lovers and dreams in my youth.

The passage of time allows us to continue to perceive life, and we have no fetters in the heroic green years, just for the impulse of the moment can laugh out loud, can cry, can carry a backpack and move forward, but youth ignorance is also the broadest choice. After experiencing the hardships in the early days of work and the beginning of the family, we gradually wore out our ideals, but we also basically embarked on the glorious years of life; In the normality of life, in a life that goes in a straight line, but in every sleepless night, the previous ideals continue to emerge, constantly leading the soul to explore and realize. I thought that I would write this work called "Years", and then divide the three stages of my life into three songs by the three song names of a band BEYOND, which was the most popular in our time and profoundly influenced my current life: "Sea and Sky", "Glorious Years", and "Goodbye Ideal".

The first thing to write is the first "Sea and Sky", in order to miss the youth of our time.

As a rural child born in the late 70s, a generation that grew up in a special era, we have experienced the end of the period of material scarcity, social change and progress, and then to the current prosperous material and scarce spirit. Step by step, now we have entered middle age, and then look back on the past, the pure youth is coming, it is a simple era, a passionate era, in that era for our future is the era of the sea and the sky. Our youth can be unbridled willful, unbridled running, and unbridled to sway our personality, just like BEYOND in our era.

"How many times have you faced cold eyes and ridicule

I have never given up on the ideals in my heart

In a moment, I was in a trance

A sense of loss

Unconsciously, it has faded

Love in the heart

Forgive me for my uninhibited indulgence and love of freedom in this life

I am also afraid that one day I will fall

Anyone can abandon their ideals

I'm afraid that one day it's just you and me."

Every time I hear this song again, I always can't help but return to the original era full of innocence, at that time we can not be said to be high-spirited, everyone is full of ideals, full of courage to face the future, never thought of retreating, although there is a moment of frustration, but never bow to fate, only in the face of feelings but always lose themselves, tears again and again, fall again and again, and then after waving away tears, they will laugh again.

I was angry for you to rush to the crown, sad for you, and then I still didn't understand it in my heart, I was still reluctant, and then the wheel of fate kept deflecting, and after all, we still came to our respective ends.

I can say that there is too much sentimentality in my fate, although it is fate, but everything is actually my own character that led to all this, I can say that I once loved passionately, but at the moment of breakup, I actually did not really do anything, and with the passage of time, I gradually understood that love does not mean that you can let go, in fact, everyone's heart is full of reluctance, although at that time I cried, scolded and hated, Then, as long as there is a look back, everything can be turned back.

The years have inadvertently gone away, youth will never reappear, and then the fetters in the heart are in the quiet night, in the lingering singing that once haunted in the heart, I hope that you have been the same as me, no matter how difficult the road in the future is, when I hear this song "Sea and Sky", I remember the youth and passion that I once shared.
