After a three-hour bus ride, the moment I opened the window and saw the snow-capped mountains, every bump along the way felt worth it. This is an open-minded attitude toward life, and also toward time itself.

新年好去處2026
This time, as I strolled slowly along the old stone path through the forest, wildflower seedlings sown by volunteers using native flower seeds grew at my feet. Several forest rangers in rough work clothes were squatting on the ground, carefully clearing away the overly dense wildflowers to prevent them from competing for nutrients and affecting the nectar supply for native butterflies. Beside them were notebooks marking the blooming times of each flower, meticulously noting which flower patch attracted which type of butterfly. I also took a small shovel to help remove excess weeds. The rangers smiled and told me that this forest was almost entirely overrun by exotic ornamental plants more than a decade ago, and native wildflowers had nearly disappeared. The native butterflies that depended on these flowers for survival also dwindled. Later, everyone insisted on coming every year to replant native nectar-producing flowers and strictly prohibited the arbitrary introduction of invasive alien plants. Now… Not only were the flowers in full bloom, but rare butterflies, missing for decades, had also returned, fluttering about. Looking up, you see sunlight filtering through the leaves, and several butterflies with patterned wings flitting among the flowers. No one reached out to catch them; everyone moved quietly, careful not to disturb these beautiful little creatures. When tired, everyone sat together on an old stone slab, drinking cool tea. All trash was placed in reusable cotton bags, leaving nothing behind in the woods. Only when the setting sun cast long shadows did you finish clearing the last patch of weeds and slowly descend the mountain. This trip, focused on creating a butterfly habitat, taught you that kindness to the forest is never about radical transformation, but about giving native life enough space to slowly reclaim its home.
