Our lives are brief, that is why it's important to search for meaning.
人生短暂，所以才要寻找它的意义。
What can we do to make our lives meaningful in our limited life-span?
In the long river of history, there were many famous people who died very early but even made some outstanding feats that were commemorated by their descendants forever.
But there were much more people, ordinary and obscure, their existence or their death, would never have any significant effect on the world. If they had one or more offspring, they might be commemorated only by their offspring.
So, try to something eternal, let your thoughts and achievements be engraved in the history.
What a waste my life would be without all the beautiful mistakes I have made.
如果没有犯下这些美丽的错误，对我的生命来说就是多么的浪费。
For myself, there may be no beautiful mistake, all are ugly.
But no matter what had happened to me, I think there must be some reasons.
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, to teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become.
You never know who these people may be - your roommate, neighbor, professor, long lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger who, when you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.
And sometimes things happen to you and at the time they may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles, you would have never realized your potential, strength, will, power or heart.
