Every story in the dream unfolds is a life

I downloaded it specifically to watch it. At the beginning, it was very attractive. Lovely children, comets across the sky, maybe it's a dreamland from then on. After being bombarded by various people’s remarks in turn, dumbfounded, well, just continue to watch, different unrelated characters appeared on the stage, telling their expositions on life, life, philosophy, and the theory of everything. The directors are all on the stage, okay? , Once I watched the movie time, I thought about when it would end. Maybe if this was my dream, I would really look forward to waking up sooner.
Don’t dreams always develop more linearly and interlacedly? The concept of time is vague, but the narrative is constantly evolving. Suddenly it falls into another scene and different characters are intertwined. Yunyun Nuonuo, I can’t help you understand the reason. Enter the next dream mystery.
Corresponding to the "Lucy" that I watched before, the truths of the world are all in the film, and you only need to slowly understand after watching it by yourself.
It’s strange that when I went to bed last night, I would think of this movie, and I can’t remember whether it was before going to bed or when I was in a dream.
This feeling is singular and profound, an indescribable sense of attachment, and I want to escape and feel the same.
I will watch it again.

Waking Life quotes

  • Man on TV: A single ego is an absurdly narrow vantage from which to view this experience. And where most consider their individual relationship to the universe, I contemplate relationships of my various selves to one another.

  • Kim Krizan: Creation seems to come out of imperfection. It seems to come out of a striving and a frustration and this is where I think language came from. I mean, it came from our desire to transcend our isolation and have some sort of connection with one another. And it had to be easy when it was just simple survival. Like you know, "water." We came up with a sound for that. Or saber tooth tiger right behind you. We came up with a sound for that. But when it gets really interesting I think is when we use that same system of symbols to communicate all the abstract and intangible things that we're experiencing. What is like... frustration? Or what is anger or love? When I say love, the sound comes out of my mouth and it hits the other person's ear, travels through this byzantine conduit in their brain through their memories of love or lack of love, and they register what I'm saying and they say yes, they understand. But how do I know they understand? Because words are inert. They're just symbols. They're dead, you know? And so much of our experience is intangible. So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed. It's unspeakable. And yet you know, when we communicate with one another and we feel that we have connected and we think that we're understood I think we have a feeling of almost spiritual communion. And that feeling might be transient, but I think it's what we live for.
