#上海生活头条[超话]#144 THE ESCAPED JACKDAW 逃跑的寒鸦
A Man caught a Jackdaw and tied a piece of string to one of its legs, and then gave it to his children for a pet. But the Jackdaw didn’t at all like having to live with people; so, after a while, when he seemed to have become fairly tame and they didn’t watch him so closely, he slipped away and flew back to his old haunts. Unfortunately, the string was still on his leg, and before long it got entangled in the branches of a tree and the Jackdaw couldn’t get free, try as he would. He saw it was all up with him, and cried in despair, “Alas, in gaining my freedom I have lost my life.”

2024 is slowly coming, those words that have not been said this year, the thanks that have not been able to express, the wishes that want to be realized next year, the expectations for next year, and the wishes that we hope to make can be realized, I believe that we can all become better ourselves!

和学金融的人聊天，真是话不投机半句多。但是转念一想，自己选择了这坨，那么就要忍耐这坨。尽力选择其中务实、洁身自好的正常人接触就好。
深深焦虑了，乱七八糟的。感觉就和winter dreams里的主角一Dexter一样，沉醉在永远在骚动的可能性里。

"While the dream provide him with the drive to become successful, they never bring him happiness--if they come true, he is dissatisfied, abd if they fail to materialize, he is unfulfillsd. Therefore, for Dexter, happiness is always just out of reach. His inflexibility and his fixation on illusions of perfection prevent him from being satisfied with any aspect of his life."

说的真好，只是说的我有点汗流浃背了[good] https://t.cn/RfqCcLW
