I barely took a moment to appreciate nature. Come to think of it, theonly time I did it was when I was so upset I wanted to commit suicide in the Huang Pu river.

About This Quote

The sentence “I barely took a moment to appreciate nature. Come to think of it, theonly time I did it was when I was so upset I wanted to commit suicide in theHuang Pu river” is a metaphor for the way we often don’t take time to appreciate our world. Sometimes we are so busy with our daily lives that we forget what is important in life. We fail to be grateful for our loved ones, our homes or just even what we have accomplished in life. We only see the bad things that happen and overlook all the good things that come into our lives.
