★Content introduction★

Two years of Sheng Nai hidden in the city, a book of understanding of the world.
A total of 59+1 poems for friends who want to know themselves again.

This book explores that a person's choice determines his destiny, which means that every choice we make directly or indirectly changes the curvature of each other's life path. The judgments before making these choices, like those decimals that can never be divisible, often rely on intuition for rounding or rounding. The rounding error produced by the choice is the unique breathing style of each person. These subjective consciousnesses of right and wrong form the diversity of people and slowly turn us into who we are now.


★Reading Suggestions★

It is especially suitable for one person to read, one to cry, and one to laugh, to explore oneself at each stage.
With the growth of life experience, readers also have the opportunity to experience the different levels of texture in this book.
It is a book that can be read for a lifetime, so please read it every year.

It is recommended that one person hide and flip.
