Long ago, an adult whose face I can't even remember told me this.
"Don't give your love to things that are too small. Don't waste your time on things that will be forgotten tomorrow, and try not to form too many relationships."
Back then, I just took it as nagging. Just useless nagging that went in one ear and out the other.
So, I gave my love to stray cats passing by, wasted too much time worrying about things that would be forgotten the next day, and built countless relationships.
The day I saw a stray cat get hit and killed by a car, I received twice the love I gave back in pure sorrow.
The time spent on worries that would be forgotten tomorrow never came back, leaving me with desperately little time to spend on the things that actually mattered.
The relationships I had built were so dazzling and complex that they blinded me.
They burned so beautifully, and only after they turned to ashes did I regret it.

In the end, I too had become an adult whose face no one would remember.
