[Prose Essay] The Blind Man
The people on the street seem very 'blind' (busy). Why 'blind'? Here, an eight-hour workday is implemented every day, yet it does not shake their 'blindness'. I originally thought that as long as one learns to think calmly, one could accomplish more things in the same limited time and achieve more meaning. But these people, after eating every day, go to work; after working, they sleep; and after waking up, they have to work again... How could they have time to pause and think calmly? Their lives are just a monotonous process of repetition, a futile persistence!

Let's talk about some news. There's a person who wanted to walk home on foot, but after walking for half a month, he realized he was going the wrong way... I think it's because people are afraid of change and are content with the status quo; most of the reasons for being 'busy' are actually 'laziness'.
