pain is the soul

In the movie, Nicolas Cage is wearing a bandage, and every sore spot of the hematoma in his body is experiencing all kinds of life, but the sex between him and his girlfriend at this time is like the only remaining warmth in the world. Perhaps, the hardships of living are far from being shown by a person's experience. In the prosperous and exquisite city of Shanghai, with wide roads, turbulent subways, and crowds of people in the downtown area, it is easy to imagine that living in it is like receiving a hug. However, here have created dwellings that cannot be found by looking at the flowers, and created the coercion of many people, which may be several times more than the number of streets in Shanghai. But people passing by can't understand the bitterness behind the prosperity. It seems that only grains and miscellaneous grains can't maintain the spiritual height.


Maybe, everyone's spirit has some embarrassment, and some spirits don't even have a place to live. Those, it is estimated that only belong to the wandering. Just like Cage in the play, just like every common person who does not know why is destined to work hard, and who does not know why, he pays. Some people are less fortunate than those who are like a number, fill in an involuntary urban formula, do an arithmetic whose result has nothing to do with you. The attributes of those people may not have such a problem of "autonomous choice". But Cage in the movie seems to have it.


For despair, no matter what is said, it is cold, and the homeless don't like to draw a story to satisfy their hunger. If possible, it is better to sit with the wanderer and become a statue. The language of stone and stone is silence, but the same storms and snows pass by year after year. I think this is enough. Eternal silence may nourish a person more than thoughts, so Nicolas Cage's sex with his girlfriend is so silent, even if the body is painful, it does not need mental Viagra, it is more powerful , I feel that being inserted into the world only needs a moment of flames.


The only thing that tortures people more than the body itself is the spirit. When the body is weakest, the spirit is so greedy and wants to absorb something. Despair may be one of them, but it may be the closest route to the soul, where , Despair is a firm choice, starting from the body, the spirit crosses the dead sea of ​​survival, and the soul emerges, just like this love in the movie, belongs to the soul, pain is where the soul resides, and that little earthly reluctance is only because of love wandering.
