The Meaning Of Everything They Did

China is sinking, lots of Chinese have lost everything they fought for decades. What’s the meaning of their lives? Everything is a dream and will be faded in history?

Just like the poem 野兽(Wild Beasts) by 黄翔(Huang Xiang)

我是一只被追捕的野兽
我是一只刚捕获的野兽
我是被野兽践踏的野兽
我是践踏野兽的野兽

我的年代扑倒我
斜乜着眼睛
把脚踏在我的鼻梁架上
撕着
咬着
啃着
直啃到仅仅剩下我的骨头

即使我只仅仅剩下一根骨头
我也要哽住我的可憎年代的咽喉

I am a wild beast hunted down
I am a captured wild beast
I am a wild beast trampled by wild beasts
I am a wild beast trampling wild beasts

This age viciously seizes me
With squinting eyes
Its feet stomp on the bridge of my nose
Tearing
Biting
Gnawing
Gnawing until barely a bone of me is left

Even though barely a bone is left
I want this detestable age to choke on me

Until recently, I realized the meaning of everything they did, is helping others RUN, so everything one did, all are meaningful:

Every time we share about it, one more person RUN
