“Above the ‘Abyss'”

Concept | Life is composed of countless choices. From the one-year-old catch, you made your first choice of life by hands, an unconscious choice. From this day, life became an endless stream of rivers and every step of our life consists of choices that we cannot retaliate. Too much competition we have to face and too much uncertainty lying in the life, each of us is struggling over the abyss. under the expectation and pressure from parents, under the watchful eyes of others, we don’t know how to adapt in this fast-changing world. We make every choice with fear and we strive to become a better person. We believe in fate and appreciate it in the good times, and we even feel that we could dominate the fate. But when we are in adversity, we will blame the burden destiny put on our shoulders. However, does the fate really exist? Can we really predict the fate? No answers. We fear and struggle. Then we get started above the abyss of fate and do our best to dominate our lives.
