Nake Xia sat in front of the window. It was a gloomy night outside. Occasionally, a few cars passed by on the street, making a faint roar. His eyes penetrated the window and stared at the blurred city in the distance. Those strange lights flickered in the night sky, like countless unsolved mysteries. Behind each light, there were different stories hidden, and he seemed to have been swallowed by this city for a long time.

His thoughts had long drifted away from the world in front of him. Now he just mechanically repeated his daily tasks and walked on this road with no end in sight. Occasionally, he would stop and look back behind him, but found that he could no longer return to the place he used to be.

Yes, Na Ke Xia felt that he was lost in this city. He used to be a goal-oriented person, who once longed to change the world and do something meaningful, but now he feels that everything has become so vague, unreal, and even a little empty. It’s like he is playing a game without rules, and with every step he takes, the road under his feet becomes more blurred.

1. Memories worn away by time: Loss and loneliness in those fragments

Once, he also had dreams. Those dreams of youth were like pearls in the deep sea, sparkling and full of temptation. However, as time passed, these dreams gradually sank into the abyss of memory and became blurred. Whenever he tried to catch them, he always felt a sense of emptiness, as if all his efforts were in vain.

He didn’t know why he became like this. Maybe it was because the city was too noisy, or maybe it was because of the emptiness in his heart that he gradually lost his former enthusiasm. Life was like the hazy fog in front of him. No matter how hard he tried to penetrate it, he could never find a bright way.

He looked at the light cone in his hand. It was a weapon he prepared for himself, a symbol of energy. But now, it seemed to be just a decoration, reminding him of the failure he had worked hard for a certain goal but could not achieve. That Kexia had an indescribable sense of loss in his heart. He felt like a meteor. Although it flashed for a while, it would eventually disappear in the endless darkness.

2. The cracks in life: Find inner peace in the chaos

“What can I do?” He often asked himself. This question is like an unsolvable puzzle, always hanging in his mind. Whenever night falls and the world around him begins to quiet down, he will start to think about these questions. The pace of life is so fast, the outside world is changing, and he is also changing, but all the changes do not seem to bring any substantial changes.

Perhaps, he thought about giving up. Give up all the struggles and efforts, give up those endless tasks, and give up everything he once expected. But every time he thinks of those dreams and his expectations for the future, a force will emerge in his heart, prompting him to keep going.

Sometimes, he feels like a part of the city, gradually blending into it, becoming an unknown flowing element. However, just because he is a part of the city, he feels unable to get rid of its shackles. It oppresses him and reminds him all the time that he is just an insignificant dust in this vast universe.

3. The meaning of the light cone: Find a ray of hope in a broken world

In that Kexia world, everything is blurry. Every character and every event seemed to have no clear purpose or meaning. The world was a big maze, and he was trapped in it, unable to find the exit. However, sometimes, he would take out the cone of light and look at it carefully. It was not bright and beautiful, and even a little old, but its existence always brought him a sense of stability.

The cone of light represented his former beliefs and strength. It was his weapon and his last ray of hope in this endless war. But now, its meaning has become vague. Na Kexia didn’t know if he could still find his former self through it. Perhaps the real answer was not in the outside world, but in his own heart.

4. Return to Self: Get out of Confusion and Embrace the Reality

After many nights of thinking, Na Kexia finally realized that he didn’t need to pursue those unattainable goals or desire those dreams he had. He began to understand that the real power was not external, but inner peace and acceptance.

So, he decided to let go of those meaningless obsessions and began to truly face himself. He put down the cone of light in his hand and no longer relied on it to find strength. He began to truly listen to his heart and feel the meaning of his life in this strange land.

In this process, loneliness and loss still exist, but Na Kexia has learned to live with them. He began to learn to appreciate the details of life, to enjoy every deep breath and the touch of every drop of water. Even this ever-noisy city began to become warm and real in his eyes.
