Why are you willing to drift north?

To tell the truth, I feel a lot of pressure when I see the news that Beijing is foggy. I am allergic to parasites. In Chengdu, it is warm and humid, but it is also foggy. In the summer of off the charts, I can say that I never dare to wear shorts and skirts again. In addition to these sudden smog, it will make people feel bad. Inhalation of particulate matter can also cause hidden dangers to cardiopulmonary function. In short, air pollution is harmful.

But when my classmates asked me where to work, I replied without a doubt that Beijing, despite the smog and worrying traffic, could not afford to buy a house.

You want to ask me why?

Good reasons are as follows.

-I love the tall and straight soldiers in front of Tiananmen Square in Beijing, the eaves of the Forbidden City in the first snow, the soft lights at night, the lotus flowers in bud in the pond in Tsinghua, and the most traditional culture in China runs through every place in Beijing. Although it is westernized, there are more rivers.

In this era, perhaps too many people are committed to providing various solutions: learning, communication, love, having children, education, workplace, and entrepreneurship, all of which have come up with a set of tutorials, programs, and successful cases. Even eating out is sorted by word of mouth, and the best route can be found when traveling. When meeting friends, turn on your mobile phone and put it on the agenda. Under the full siege of instrumental rationalism (coupled with the continuous upgrading of technology), you will find the best route. So more and more people believe that I can find the best solution for my future. This is the biggest illusion of this era.

People who are immersed in this kind of thinking will be smooth sailing. Once they encounter setbacks, or just like the subject, they may find that there is no way out in the mode, and they are likely to be devastated. They will not face the reality: I am groping around in a thorny place. I need to accept that this is my life at the moment, but I will choose to escape. The way to escape is to find a better model: should a person like me have a way out? If they really can't find such an exit, they can only blame themselves: why do they choose this major when they are out of their minds? Or because I didn't work hard enough in the past. Then trapped by negative energy, and then give up on yourself.

Life is unhappy, nine times out of ten. Even if the future gets better, I'm afraid it's still nine times out of ten since ancient times. Who can say that career, housing, children's education and parents' pension have been perfectly solved? There is either regret or sacrifice here. This is the normal state of life. Beijing has various restrictions; Returning to second-and third-tier cities, I feel that the pool is small and unwilling; Immigrants who go abroad are farther away from their parents and still cannot contact their parents in language and culture. what can I do? Isn't life such a mess? Live.

Let's go back to the question: Where is the future of the Northern drift after the 1980s? My answer is: standing today is invisible, don't look; Looking back 50 years later, I will naturally understand. Perhaps this generation is actually the darling of the times, perhaps this generation has become the cannon fodder of the times, perhaps this generation has rolled up its sleeves and changed this era. It's possible. But don't think too much today. It's useless to think too much.

I can't see the future, but I can still move on and have fun occasionally along the way. It's amazing to be able to do this.

I can't see where the future is, but I can move on. Can do this, is also a normal person.

If you can't see where the future is, you can't move forward and need to see a way out. In this way, you are a generation poisoned by fantasy.

To borrow Fromm's words, you can't have both security and freedom. If you want to live more freely, you must bear the corresponding anxiety.

There is no road in the world. If you walk through it, it is your way.
