It does not do to dwell on dreams, and forget to live.

人不能只生活在梦里，只依靠虚幻的东西而忘记了生活。

Don't forget to live.

Because only the real world can give you the foundation on which you build your dreams, or in other words, the real world offers you something that can help you realize your dreams.

If divorced from the real world, all that you think as dreams and all that you are seeking after, are just groundless and vulnerable, or, illusory.

If you dwell on such dreams, ok, if some of them come true, that is fine, but once they can't be made true, you'll lose too many things, not only the dreams itself, but also the hope, the confidence, and so on.

So, just stand on the real ground and seek after your dreams.

And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.

人生的低谷成为了我重建生活的坚实基础。

It is almost unavoidable to encounter difficulties, some even seemingly unsurmountable, that may lead you to think you are at the lowest point of life.

Maybe it seems that there is no hope for you to go upwards sometimes.

You may lose all the hope for life and you can't recover from such setbacks.

This is what the setbacks expect.

But your life will be destroyed as well.

We can't let that be true. We must take the rock bottoms as opportunities to reassess our life and repair our life.
