Features: The term "crossing the century" implies both an end and a beginning. Perhaps it also signifies a complete process. If we use climbing a mountain as a metaphor, when people ascend from the base of the mountain to reach the peak and then cross it, that is the state we anticipate and may experience at this moment. Most of the people living now can face both the sunset of a century and the sunrise of another, making them undoubtedly fortunate individuals who have been born at the right time.
