Astronauts

People who want to flock together seek security, while
people who do not flock together seek growth.

That is a phrase I read in some book a long time ago.

I always want to be the latter.
I believe that by continuing to learn without flocking, life becomes something wonderful.

However, I sometimes feel anxious.
When there is nothing around me to compare myself to, I sometimes lose track of where I stand and whether I am heading in the right direction.

Perhaps astronauts experience that kind of feeling.
After undergoing rigorous training upon training and being backed by the world's most advanced science and technology, when they finally leap into space, they find themselves in a pitch-black void with nothing there. They don't even know if they are facing up or down.

The mental strength to endure that is essential.

Only a handful of people have the courage to leap into space.
Effort is required to meet the highest standards to get there.
But in the end, it must be about mental strength.

A pitch-black void with no up or down.
Why not enjoy this worst and best of environments?

Because eventually, we must return to the ground where all that miscellaneous information flies about.
