We, the post-90s generation, grew up amidst much controversy. We all seem to be in a rush, an overwhelming rush—rushing to find boyfriends, rushing to buy cars and houses, wanting to travel and enjoy life, yet lacking financial support. Our limited experience leaves us adrift in society, barely having time to read or write an article.
I don't understand why everyone is moving so fast. We missed out on childhood joys, travel, and socializing. Our generation of post-90s is completely different from the post-60s, post-70s, and even post-80s. We're in a rush to buy cars and houses, and for that pitiful love—did the post-60s and post-70s generations need to worry about these things?
We're moving too fast. When we chase our dreams, put in the effort, and rush to achieve them, what we often can't be solved quickly is often not the fastest solution. We often think of this saying: when we hear it, we don't understand; when we understand, it's too late. When we hear it, we understand and act, and naturally, we speed up.
This applies to both love and life. Men and women aren't thinking about dating, but about how to get into bed. Girls want cars and houses. Even though we're young, and you say you want pure love, what about...? How many women, after marriage and children, start rushing to give their children a good life—school, high school, university, work—a never-ending cycle of rushing. Is there any point in this?
I want to take it slow, but that's just wishful thinking. Love and life are about meeting the right person at the right time. People's social circles, levels, and paces are inherently different. When we have children, and they have their own childhood, can we impose our own on them? But society today moves everything forward. Everyone says my thinking is different, but only I know I'm just a child myself.
Many things have changed because we've moved too fast. Things are no longer done step by step, no longer following the rules, leading to distrust from outsiders, especially from parents. Some people are simply at this pace; they can't keep up with us, so they distrust us, thinking we're boasting, that every 15-year-old is still a fool, that 20-year-olds are just starting university, and that 22-year-olds are lucky to even have a job after graduation
. But is society really like that? I don't know the pace of those around me, and I don't want to know. Frankly, I don't care about national affairs, I don't watch any entertainment news; my only hobby is watching One Piece every Sunday. I have indeed moved too fast, but I've found that some people are moving even faster than me. What can I do?
Many things are truly beyond our control. Moving too slowly makes you seem incompetent, moving too fast means no one will believe you. That's why I really like Lorentz's theory of relativity; it explains everything perfectly.
Are we moving too fast? Must everyone follow the prescribed path? Wouldn't that mean our whole lives would be like that? Six years old in first grade, twelve in middle school, fifteen in high school, eighteen in university, and twenty-two graduating and starting to look for a job? I'm truly sorry, but that's not the case for hardworking people. When we move fast, we also pay a high price, and we expect a lot in return. If you're moving slowly, then so be it... We won't wait for you.
