Translate the following text from Chinese into English.

 

你的青春就是一场远行，一场离自己的童年，离自己的少年，越来越远的远行。你会发现这个世界跟你想象的一点都不一样，你甚至会觉得很孤独，你会受到很多的排挤。度假和旅行，其实都解决不了这些问题，我解决问题的办法，就是不停寻找自己所热爱的一切。

 

Youth is a journey into the distance, a journey that gets increasingly away from your childhood and then from your adolescence.

In fact, neither going on a vacation nor taking a trip can solve these problems.
