Harry...harry...nao contava com essa,uh?

Translated from "靛自将息" by Salion Miller, originally published on April 20, 2022. Translator's note: I read Joyce's The Dead a few days ago, which reminds this passage, which is also perfect in describing farewells and pursuits very well. To put this story in simple and easy-to-understand terms, it is essentially a decision about 'to act' or 'not to act.' One can either be content with the status quo, patiently waiting as time etches marks on both body and mind, eventually unable to withstand it and being ground into dust to return to the earth, or one can use their talent and ability to take a gamble, striving to accomplish the unfinished tasks that must be completed. I'd like to use the word I once heard below the original post: "Life is but a fleeting moment, so why not do things that you find meaningful, spending your limited time immersed in endless passion? It's a pity that there are too many attachments in the world. If I had the chance, I would also like to be like Lastwine - seek means in the world, earn a smile from a beloved, gain the satisfaction of my fellows, and find my own carefree joy." Hope you enjoy this passage.
