“Never look back to the past, never regret, even if there is emptiness ahead.' But I couldn't help it. Sometimes I would rather look back if it meant that I could feel something in my heart, even something sad. Sadness was better than emptiness.”
― Xiaolu Guo, Twenty Fragments of a Ravenous Youth

It's true that sometimes emptiness within causes us to resort to extreme actions. Which is why I could relate to the protagonist's sentiments in this book. Doesn't necessarily mean I'll do the same.
