Man's youth is a wonderful thing: it is full of anguish and of magic and he never comes to know it as it is, until it has gone from him forever.

Youth is wonderful and charming. It is full of pain. When you are young, you don't even know what it is, until the youth is gone forever.

It is the thing he cannot bear to lose, it is the thing that passing he watches with infinite sorrow and regret, it is the thing that losses with a sad and secret joy, the thing he wocould never willinugly relive again, cocould it be restored to him by any magic.

Everyone wants to let the youth stay forever, and never let the youth go; watching the passage of the youth, endless sorrow and regret will emerge in the heart; the loss of youth is a thing that people will always feel sad; the loss of youth is what people really think of as joys and sorrows. Even if the miracle of youth recovers, no one will be willing to take the time of youth seriously.

Why is this? The reason is that the strange and bitter miracle of life is nowhere else so evident as in our youth. and what is the essence of that strange and bitter miracle of life which we feel so poignant (adj. sharp, bitter, profound, important, so unutterable. full; can't say anything; can't be expressed in words), with such a bitter pain and joy, when we are young?

Why? In the age of youth, life is full of strange and bitter incredible things. When we were young and young, we felt a bitter and incredible experience in our life. What is the essence?

It is this: that being rich, we are so poor; that being mighty, We can yet have nothing; that seeing, breathing, smelling, tasting all around us the impossible wealth and glory of this earth, feeling with an unsupported lerable certitude (N. sure; indeed) that the whole structure of the enchanted life-the most fortunate, wealthy, good, and happy life that any man has ever known-is ours at once, immediately and forever, the moment that we choose to take a step, or stretch a hand, or say a word-we yet know that we can really keep, hold, take, and possess forever-nothing.

The essence is this: When I was young, although rich and rich, I was very poor. Although I was strong, I had nothing to do with it. The world's rich and prosperous, I could breathe and smell it, you can also feel the confidence in your heart, and deeply feel the whole intoxicated life-the luckiest and richest happy life that has been reached by mankind so far, as long as we decide to move forward and work hard, we will immediately be all of us and will always belong to us. However, we know that we can never get anything, and can never get anything.

All passes; nothing lasts: The moment that we put our hand upon it, it melts away like smoke, is gone forever, and the snake is eating at our heart again; we see then what we are and what our lives must come.

. Everything is in a hurry and gone. When we take a shot, it will disappear, and it will be gone forever. As a result, my heart burst into pain points, saw my real face, and saw the inevitable trend of my future life.

A young man is so strong, so mad, so certain, and so lost. he has everything and he is able to use nothing. he hurls (vt. drop, throw, and angrily say) The Great shoulder of his strength forever against phantasmal (adj. phantom; phantom; imaginary) barriers, he is a wave whose power explodes in lost mid-oceans under timeless skies, here-aches out to grip a fume (N. smoke, anger, and annoyance) of painted smoke, he wants all, feels the thirst and power for everything, and finally gets nothing. in the end, he is destroyed by his own strength, lost ured by his own hunger, impoverished (vt. by his own wealth.

Young people are very strong, enthusiastic, and confident, but they are easy to get confused and chaotic. Although there are countless opportunities, they cannot grasp them. Although they are strong, they try to break through the illusory barrier, but it is like a wave, in the end, it was unable to disappear into the vast ocean. He reached out and wanted to catch the colorful clouds. He wanted everything in the world, and wanted to dominate everything, but eventually he had nothing to gain. Finally, he was destroyed by his own power, swallowed up by his hunger, and made poor by his wealth.

Thoughtless of money or the accumulation of material possessions, He is none the less defeated in the end by his own greed a greed that makes the avarice of King das seem paltry by comparison.

He does not care about the accumulation of money or wealth, but is eventually swallowed up by his greed.

And that is the reason why, when youth is gone, every man will look back upon that period of his life with infinite sorrow and regret. it is the bitter sorrow and regret of a man who knows that once he had a great talent and wasted it, of a man who knows that once he had a great treasure and got nothing from it, of a man who knows that he had strength enough for everything and never used it.

Youth disappears and suddenly looks back. No matter who you are, your heart will be filled with endless sorrow and endless regrets. Once talented, brilliant, but wasted, once rich, but nothing, once powerful, but never used. A person who realizes his lost youth is always filled with sorrow and regret.
