A very healing message: "When you're the only one left, you're both a soldier and handsome; when you have no support, you're a thousand armies. Many times, you have to walk alone. This isn't loneliness, it's no choice. Walk your own path, endure the pain in your heart, and keep toughing it out. The so-called growth is the process of gradually removing the idea that 'someone can rely on me' from your mind. In the end, you'll realize that you are your only, never-off-duty comrade. This is not some motivational cliché. Psychologist Wu Zhihong also mentioned that one of the signs of maturity is developing an 'inner parent' who can self-soothe and motivate. Look at those who have achieved success in history—did any of them not go through long 'darkest hours'? Su Shi was repeatedly demoted, in a desolate land, with friends gone, yet he wrote poetry, brewed wine, studied cuisine, and turned his exile into a spiritual homeland. His thousand armies are the knowledge in his mind and that clarity of 'where my heart is at peace, that is my homeland.' So, true strength is not never asking for help, but understanding that some roads are one-way, and some hurdles must be crossed alone. Learn to encourage yourself when no one cheers, and give yourself orders when surrounded by enemies. This process is about turning your heart into a cocoon, then transforming the cocoon into armor. For ordinary people like us, this confidence in 'thousand armies and horses' can be a bowl of noodles cooked after a late-night overtime, a stable mood after a child's crying and breakdown, or organizing a little bit of your own order from a messy life. These small, concrete victories are more solid than any grand words. Ultimately, loneliness is the background color, and self-rescue is instinct. When you stop looking everywhere for a shelter, you become the house that can shelter you from the wind and rain.
