I think human life is similar to the cycles of nature. If we compare the sun with our lives, we can see some similarities. I think the sunrise can be like our birth, the sun in the middle of the day shines most brightly, and it is like us in our twenties or thirties, when we are in the best shape, both in our health and our career. There are many idioms in Chinese that compares the rise and fall of sun with our life. One of them described the sunset as the time of our old age. I think our lives are like these endlessly repeated cycles of the natural world. We get born, and before we die we give birth to another life, and the life takes on us after we die. These cycles all have a start and an end, it is the nature’s way to create and destroy. We come to this world, and we leave the world. Without these cycles, the world might become a very weird place. The sun will never go down, and we will never die. The world would be a very monotonous place, because nothing ever changes.
