What should an ordinary person's life look like?

Because they are young, they don't realize how fleeting good times are. They don't know that the stages of being able to move freely, walk briskly, and have no discomfort throughout life are extremely precious. Vigorous vitality can only last for a short period, and days of running at full speed are far shorter than you imagine.
Because they have never stood at the center of public opinion, they don't realize the value of reputation. They don't know that being honest and open-hearted means that even when hearing gossip, they won't think about how difficult their own state of mind is. Maybe you once enjoyed gossip, only to find that your own affairs have become the gossip of others. Once admired heroes, only to realize that in the virtual world, you can only be considered a small villain.
Because of limited experience, they don't understand the value of trust. Gaining trust requires long-term accumulation, and losing it can happen with just one misstep. If someone no longer trusts you and spreads your dishonesty, you'll then lose trust on a much larger scale. The consequences of dishonesty are chain reactions; they may not happen immediately but will eventually hit you hard in unexpected ways.
Because desires are too strong, they don't understand the simplicity and preciousness of life. When life is dull, they find it unstimulating; when they want to indulge in artistic or dramatic pursuits, they struggle to be the writer of their own story. Because you are not the main character of the entire story. Life is not a novel; once things enter a complex mode, they are no longer under personal control, and it's hard to wait for a clear ending.
Because there are too many crossroads, they don't realize the value of true feelings. Human nature is inherently base; in the best times, there's always a chance to meet someone whose eyes only see you. The more you have been favored in the past, the easier it is to love with bias. The person who cares more about you and the one who cares less will, after many years, become an unspoken story rooted in your heart.
Because they take on too little, they don't understand the value of responsibility. When problems arise, they always feel the whole world owes them; they are used to asking for things from others but lazy to give back. Life isn't long; from being overly sentimental to becoming silent and reserved, it doesn't take long. From reckless spending to a path that can't be boasted about, it's not far. Most experiences include both success and failure; having felt proud and then overwhelmed by doubts, sharing others' stories and becoming the subject of others' jokes. Life is inherently multifaceted; everyone's life is accompanied by problems day and night.
