Understanding that everything has a life cycle makes it a lt easier t deal with endings that we all have t face, even ur wn mrtality (生命的有限). Nthing lasts frever, and that fact is what drives us t live life t the fullest.

And the fact that custmers can reach me r their medical dctrs mre easily in an emergency is very cmfrting fr everyne.
All in all, it is that kind f interactin (互动) that we need the mst. Even thugh the wrld is frever changing, interactin keeps us tgether mentally and emtinally. Let's make sure that cntinues.
