Life inspiration
This sentence means that human beings will suffer many illnesses and sufferings, but the most difficult to cure is the pain of lovesickness in the heart. Lovesickness is an emotion that cannot be cured with medicine. Only time and self-adjustment can slowly dilute its impact. We often fall into an emotional quagmire and are unable to extricate ourselves, but only through our own efforts and slowly letting ourselves out can we regain spiritual freedom and peace.
In terms of personal experience, I once experienced the pain of lovesickness, which was difficult to extricate myself from. However, by constantly adjusting my emotions and way of thinking, allowing myself to relax and release, I finally slowly came out of the shadow. We will also encounter various dissatisfactions and difficulties in life, but only by actively responding to them and understanding and handling them with our heart can we better face the challenges in life and become stronger and stronger.
