When you can only watch and can't participate in your own life, does it still have any meaning? Jean-Do said yes. People have never had wings, but who dares to say that we can't fly.
Perhaps because of the first-person perspective, when Henriette taught him to speak with his eyes for the first time, you could clearly feel Bauby's powerlessness, which, he said, was ridiculous. I feel like an idiot except for the blink of an eye.
Learning to swallow is even more torture. A beautiful woman slightly opens her lips in front of you, and her tongue wriggles back and forth. I didn't respond. I thought this kind of thing would never happen to me. Let me blow you a kiss, if I could move, it wouldn't be as simple as blowing a kiss.
The ancients had an ethos of retreating and practicing. After being isolated from the world, your thinking will be clearer, because you have nothing to do except think. Bauby's self-defeating at the beginning has a lot to do with the sudden illness. After he was born without love, he found that he was not worthless. Henriette's anger touched him a lot, and he found that there were so many people who loved him. A man's self-esteem can never make a woman cry because she loves you.
The telecom worker jokes, but he laughs at Henriette's lack of humor. I can finally face myself now. From then on, the butterfly in the diving bell broke out of the cocoon and became an immortal.
Everyone's life is an epic, but we often forget how to cherish it. I am used to chasing forward with big strides, and I have no time to bask in the past myself.
When the current abalone and shark fins are hard to make you smile, follow the flow of memory and you will find that the first lollipop that made you ecstatic is sweeter than anything else. It's a pity that we are all too busy to have time to reminisce.
If Bauby didn't have a stroke, he'd be no different from any other high-society playboy. People who have everything tend not to be too obsessed with one thing, which is completely different from people who lie in bed and have nothing to do but think.
It is said that he touched the world, but people just continue to drive to Lourdes with his mistress after being touched. People with capital indulgence will be moved by those who have few desires, but they will never become them.
In fact, you can always move the world, you don't have to wait until only one eyelid is left.
