Getting old does not require personal effort and it does not even guarantee some meaningful experiences, which is sad. Getting old is not equal to growth.
For me, it is quite scary that getting old does not give me growth. Time flies so fast while enjoying the comfort zone. It feels like I cannot touch or sense the flow of time. But when I work hard to challenge my limit and break the walls, I can feel clearly the flow of time in the sense of pain, struggle, blood and sweat.
In this way, I know when time flows through my body, my hard-work have converted some of it into valuable characteristics in myself and I grow a little bit. And I know, little by little these characteristics will aggregate and become bright stars.
