Above the Seven Emotions—Emotional Consciousness in Times of Suffering

Everyone has emotions.

Some emotions are displayed on their faces without modification; some are not good at handling them and tend to be suppressed; some are overwhelmed and trapped - not many people are used to discussing emotions, and some people are even afraid to face their truest self Emotions.

Some of these emotions are related to personal growth, and are related to some things that we have experienced but have not dealt with. One day, they suddenly burst out and caught us off guard; some are related to the social environment, such as the past period of time when we faced negative reactions Many people were psychologically unable to withstand the impact of the various legislative amendment movements, and even the subsequent outbreak of COVID-19, and fell into a low ebb.

After going through emotional depression, the author Ma Jiewei accompanied many friends who were in trouble and went through a journey that was not easy. He wrote down these people and events, and also wrote down his own and Hong Kong people's mental journey in them - in times of suffering, let us persist in being kind, quiet ourselves, and live a good life.

"Hong Kong was once an outstanding city. It has experienced profound suffering over the years, which is enough to transform Hong Kong into a great city. Her great significance must be fulfilled in our respective lives through you and me who have endured suffering."

——Ma Jiewei
