Being unmarried at an older age is not a predicament, but a conscious choice.
Towards the end of our conversation, my best friend said, "It's not that I don't believe in marriage, it's just that I don't want to get married just because 'it's time to get married.'" This statement struck a chord with me: true happiness is never about "living according to someone else's script," but about "choosing the life you want." • The answer to "What will I do when I'm old?" is never "marriage." People often ask her, "If you don't get married, who will take care of you when you're o...

Behind her carefree attitude lies untold pressure.
But her best friend said her "freedom" wasn't without its price. The urging from elders and the scrutiny from relatives felt like an invisible net, occasionally making her doubt whether she was "really wrong." • The most painful thing was her parents' nagging. Her parents would call every few days, either saying, "The neighbor's daughter got married, and her husband is a good catch," or sighing, "We're getting old, who will help you take care of your children?" Every time she hung up, she wou...

Being unmarried at an older age is a huge advantage, not a predicament.
Her unconventional life hides the freedom I've lost. My best friend has a small apartment in the suburbs of Chengdu. It's not big, but the balcony is full of succulents, the living room has her yoga mat, and the bookshelves are full of her favorite books. She says, "I don't have to rush to cook after get off work. I can practice yoga whenever I want, or watch TV series whenever I want." These words are like a thorn in my side, pricking my daily routine of being constantly surrounded by the st...

What's more, listening to the cold sound of rain
Once the awakening from hibernation passes, the spring chill becomes even more intense. Before this, the terrain was steep, then the rainy season began, sometimes wet, sometimes gradually drizzling, and the tide was damp and humid, affecting even dreams, as if one were holding an umbrella. With an umbrella, one can avoid a sudden cold downpour, but cannot escape the entire rainy season. Even thoughts feel moist. Every day on the way home, I wander winding paths, desiring it, yet it seems unat...
