The original English translation of this sentence is "always young, always crying". The capital "o" with spaces here is also the design in the original text.

This sentence comes from the last sentence in Jack Kerouac's Dharma Wanderer, which is also the crowning touch of the book. Later, someone translated it as "always young, always crying", which is a state and an ability.

Make an appreciative comment

Being young forever means that we should always keep a pure and stubborn heart (a little literary). As we grow up in the real society, we will gradually distort our hearts because we adapt to the society. This distortion is good and bad, but our initial hearts will gradually be forgotten, and the initial thoughts in our hearts are the most touching. Artists always go their own way, just seeking the expression of their inner world. In reality, too many of us shoulder a lot of responsibilities, always changing for the sake of society, and gradually being polluted by society. Since I have shouldered the responsibility, I might as well let myself learn knowledge and strengthen myself with a rational heart during the day, but at night, I can release my innocent heart and enrich my spiritual world. So the meaning of this sentence is to keep a young heart to move yourself and give yourself motivation, instead of being simple all the time, which will be eliminated by society.

As for keeping tears in your eyes, the meaning is similar. The so-called tears are moved tears, which are actually a manifestation of happiness. When you take off your disguised makeup and reveal your purest heart, that is, when you are most easily moved, that is, when you are happiest, this sentence is to hope that you will be happy forever.
