It is a beautiful sunny day! I stood on the narrow balcony to enjoy the warmth of sunlight on my skin. Funnily, what struck my eyes was that the cat in the neighboring house was also lying on the lobby, exposing its white furry belly in the sparkling light, unaware of another “kitty” looking at it. At that moment, the little creature was no longer a hateful intruder rummaging my waste-basket but shared with me the sense of comfort in this rare beautiful day. For a while, I thought my soul was like a hollow tree in the wood; it used to be stunted, silent, isolated and surly with other surrounding creatures. And then, Spring’s warm breath passed by, taking away hate, anger, worry long existing inside the hollow tree, leaving warmth and peace there.That is what I felt two hours ago. I have stepped out from the peaceful hollow tree to come back to reality. It is another world which is full of passions: passion for learning, passion for success, passion for entertainment, etc; all of such passions serve the highest one: passion to win other people’s sympathy, respect and love. Now I am afraid that too many passions will burn me down into nothing one day as my ability to indulge them is limited. Having so many passions really burdens my soul; it usually fills me with hate, worry, disappointment, but luckily no envy. I am sometimes urged to return to my hollow tree right after I step out of it. However, I am not very coward. If I cannot get rid of any passions because all of them are essential, the only way to avoid burning down is making them come true, one by one.What about the hollow tree? It will be forever a peaceful place for me to hide myself, but just for a while. There I will hollow my burdensome soul and make it ready to be filled with brand-new challenges and feelings.
