However, in Zhang Lan's opinion, what is the pursuit of better food, enjoying one's life, and pursuing better transcendence.

It all comes down to one word: selfishness.

Whether a person is living for life or for himself, no matter how loudly he says it, it is actually useless. You will know by looking at his actual actions.

Society has changed now. It is no longer the same as in the past. Everyone lives in the public opinion of others. In the end, they still have to rely on people in public opinion to help with some things.

Whether you like living alone or pursuing a better self, it is actually not a problem. The problem is that when your parents need to rely on you for a living, you cannot support them and start a career, but instead need your parents' help to live. This is a bit wrong.

Cultivate yourself, manage your family, govern the country and bring peace to the world. If you can't even cultivate yourself and manage your family, but think you can definitely govern the country and bring peace to the world, isn't that nonsense.

The most important point is that if Zhang Jintao can speak about the industry or career he is engaged in after meeting him today, no matter it is right or wrong, successful or not, Zhang Lan can say that he is fighting for his ideal.

But in reality, as soon as we met, before we even said a few words, Zhang Jintao began to talk incessantly about his life of living alone and how he enjoyed being alone.

Even if you love food, in this era, you can upload a video on a short video platform to record yourself. Who knows, you might become popular someday.

But you have nothing. No matter how well you talk, in the end it is just to satisfy your own appetite and make a simple meal.

I don’t find any higher pursuit in this place. You said that enjoying solitude is to better surpass yourself, so what exactly are you surpassing?

In fact, nothing has been surpassed, you are just deceiving yourself in your heart.

Zhang Jintao was about to refute Zhang Lan's analysis, saying that he was not that kind of person at all.

But is Zhang Lan actually wrong in that point? The facts are here. No matter how nice the words are, the reality is here.

If I was wrong, then based on what I just said, do you, Zhang Jintao, have anything to share with others?
Zhang Jintao remained silent. Zhang Lan sighed and said, "Sometimes it's okay to deceive yourself, but you should always know what's going on in your heart."

If a person stays alone for a long time, something will go wrong.

You will unconsciously talk to yourself in the mirror, make various expressions, sometimes laugh and sometimes cry, as if the self in the mirror is a living person, a listener and partner to whom you can open your heart.

If an acquaintance calls you suddenly and asks you to go out for a get-together, you will even do whatever it takes, such as skipping classes to keep the date, or turning down many things that are very important to you. However, more often than not, you will find that the other person is just treating you as a substitute, like an ATM.

Sometimes, you desperately want to have an acquaintance to talk to you, and you may even go to great lengths to create an opportunity for a chance encounter. For example, when you get home from school but don’t meet the acquaintance you are waiting for, you may deliberately wait at the station for a long time, even if you are soaked to the skin and the temperature is more than ten degrees below zero.

Sometimes, even if there is someone on the street who talks to you for a few words, you will feel very happy, and this happiness may even last for a whole day. In the long and silent night, you may wander alone in an empty house, talking to yourself in the air, imagining that there is an audience who is willing to share your joys, sorrows and anger.

You may spend a lot of time creating several small accounts on QQ and WeChat, imagining that these people are your friends. You may even use these non-existent friends to create some chat records.

If no one wishes you a happy birthday on your birthday, you may seek help from netizens, for example, "Today is my birthday, can you send me a happy birthday?"

Long-term loneliness will make you create one or more friends in your mind. These people have different preferences and personalities. When you are most lonely, they will appear in a space that only you can see, cheer you up, and give your already haggard heart a brief healing. Believe me, this is not childish, those who understand will understand.

When you see the loneliness levels on the Internet, you may even scorn them because the things on them are simply child's play.

For a long time, no one even communicates with you, and even a few words of communication are rare.

You will laugh and cry, but most of the time, you will even make up some funny jokes and touching stories in your mind, which will move you and make you laugh.

Sometimes, you think you have overcome loneliness, are no longer sensitive to it, and have defeated it. But when you see a few students chatting arm in arm, a young couple unconsciously showing their affection, or even another person who seems as lonely as you talking and laughing on the phone to another person, your defense will be instantly broken.

I like to travel alone, especially to remote places. Whenever people leave one after another and you are the only one left, you will feel an inexplicable sense of loss, as if you have fallen into an ice cave.

Sometimes you will be so low that you become a funny clown, forcing yourself to communicate with people you can't get along with at all, and then not only do you get hurt, but you still feel a little satisfied.

There are no letters from anyone other than my family on my phone, and if there is, it's just various advertisements?

You are very sensitive to titles containing the word "loneliness". Sometimes, even if you know it is meaningless, you will still read the comments one by one, seeking some kind of inexplicable sense of comfort.

You can switch to the self-talking state at any time. Even if there are people around you, you can't help but talk to your inner listeners.

Sometimes, you solve a problem not by relying on the Internet or someone’s mercy, but by coming to an answer through self-discussion while stopping and talking to yourself.

Every time there is a party or something, you may be just a decoration, which is commonly known as a decoration. Every time everyone moves together, even if you fall behind, everyone will selectively ignore you.

I like to stay in a quiet place for a long time. Lonely people should all be masters at this mode of self-entertainment.

Long-term loneliness may make you forget what loneliness is. In other words, you will truly adapt and no longer be sad about whether you have friends to talk to or not. At this time, loneliness is like a piece of clothing on your body or a few glasses of water you must drink every day. It is something that can accompany you throughout your life. Once you get used to it, you will not take it seriously. At this stage, I am afraid you will not care about loneliness. (End of this chapter)
