A long time ago, in a very popular temple, there was a spider infected with the nature of Buddha. One day, the Buddha passed by from the sky and saw this temple that was very popular. The Buddha came to the temple and saw the spider. The Buddha asked: "Spider, do you know what is the most cherished thing in this world?" The spider replied: "What you can't get and what you have lost." The Buddha said: "Okay, then I will ask you this question again in three thousand years." The Buddha left. Spider still lives in this temple, praying for people who come to make wishes every day, and being moved by their stories every day. The days passed slowly and unconsciously. Three thousand years later, the Buddha came to this temple again. He asked the spider again: "Spider, do you know what is the most cherished thing in this world?" The spider replied: "What you can't get and what you have lost." Buddha said: "Okay, then I will come back to ask you this question three thousand years later." The Buddha left. Spiders still live in this temple. Suddenly one day a gust of wind blew a drop of nectar, and this drop of nectar fell on the spider's web. The spider liked this drop of nectar very much. It looked at it every day and felt that it was very happy and that time passed very quickly every day. But one day, the wind blew again and took the nectar away. The spider lost its nectar and was very sad. The days passed slowly in the spider's sadness. Three thousand years later, the Buddha came to this temple again. He asked the spider again: "Spider, do you know what is the most cherished thing in this world?" The spider still replied: "What you can't get and what you have lost." Buddha said: "Okay, then you come to the world with me." The spider came to the world with the Buddha, and the Buddha helped the spider reincarnate. 18 years have passed. The spider was reincarnated as a young lady from an official family, named Pearl. In the same year, Ganlu was also reincarnated and became the top scholar in Jinke. At another grand banquet in the palace, Zhuer and Ganlu met again. With a dignified appearance and elegant manners, Ganlu became the focus of everyone's attention, and naturally also attracted the favor of the emperor's daughter, Princess Changfeng. Pearl was not in a hurry, because she knew that her fate with Manlu was destined by God. One day, Pearl went to the temple to burn incense and happened to meet Ganlu who accompanied her mother to burn incense. She walked over and Ganlu said politely, "Miss, what are you doing?" Pearl's face suddenly turned very pale: "Don't you know me? I'm Pearl, that spider from more than two thousand years ago." Ganlu replied puzzledly: "I'm sorry, Miss, I think you got the wrong person. I don't know you, and I don't know what you are talking about." Ganlu helped her mother go. Pearl fell into great sorrow. She didn't understand why this destiny, destined by heaven, was so difficult. A few days later, when Zhuer was still immersed in pain, she got two pieces of news: first, the emperor betrothed his daughter Princess Changfeng to the top scholar in the Jinke family, Ganlu; second, the emperor betrothed her to his son, Licorice. After hearing the news, Zhuer finally couldn't hold on any longer. She collapsed completely and couldn't afford to get sick ever since. When Pearl and Licorice's wedding was about to come, Licorice was very sad to learn that Pearl was seriously ill. He came to Pearl's bedside, held the unconscious Pearl's hand and said, "Zhuer, do you know that from the moment I saw you at my father's banquet, I have fallen deeply in love with you, so I asked my father to betroth you to me. If you die, the rest of my life..." Pearl couldn't hear anymore, because her soul had slowly left her body. She looked at the licorice crying silently beside her, and felt like a knife was cutting hard in her heart. At this moment, Buddha appeared, and he asked Pearl: "Can you tell me now what is the most cherished thing in the world?" Pearl said with tears: "What you can't get and what you have lost.” Buddha said: “Don't you still understand? Manna is just a passer-by in your life. He was brought and taken away by Changfeng, so he belongs to Princess Changfeng. During the days when you lived in the temple, Licorice under your net had been watching you silently and admiring you, but he did not have the courage to tell you, and you never lowered your noble head. " At this time, Pearl's eyes were filled with tears. She nodded, looked at the licorice beside her and said, "The most valuable thing in this world is what we have around us now. ”-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What is Cherish? Cherish is a value concept that can only be realized through loss. People who have not experienced failure, lessons, regrets, and pain cannot understand the meaning of the word cherish. People who have not experienced war will not cherish peace; people who have not experienced illness will not cherish health; people who have not experienced hunger will not cherish food; Don't wait until you lose it before you regret it. Don't rush it.

It can't be done; if it could be done, there wouldn't be this article. Everybody knows this truth.
Well written and full of literary flair, and also very philosophical!
