wake up, 12:07

Vicenta 2022-10-06 08:57:14

I went to bed too early and woke up in the middle of the night to finish watching the movie.

Seeing that the location of the yew tree in the second half was a cemetery, I suddenly felt that maybe it was evil. In order to make Connor give up his mother, maybe the nutrients of the yew tree came from the buried dead.

But this tree spirit is so gentle that I cannot deliberately misunderstand it.

Connor's story is simple, even common. To lose a mother at a young age is not too young to understand death, nor too big to deal with it like an adult. Connor's words are no different from ordinary children, and he didn't tell his mother in the end, you can go with peace of mind.

This movie allows me to see the heart of Connor, so rich, so stormy.

It's a good movie with nice pictures.

Connor didn't want his mother to leave, Connor was in pain, and the pain made him angry. He even hoped that all this would end sooner, but his thought frightened him again, because it meant that he had given up on his mother in his heart, and he would regret the death of her mother. The best outcome, Connor's wish, is for the mother to recover.

When my mother was still in the intensive care unit, I always hoped that her mother would recover, and then I could laugh at my mother's inattentiveness, and be careful and obedient in the future. But I also clearly understand the worst consequences, and continue to imagine my life after the death of my mother. Or maybe my mom needs a period of time to take care of me and I have to take time off. It's a hassle, but I'm ready to give up my job. In the end, my mother went, and apart from the pain she left me, I didn't suffer any physical or financial hardship.

In Adventure Time, when Finn found his mother, his mother had passed away, and he uploaded a brain map to the computer to communicate with Finn. At this time, the mother may have retained all the thoughts at the time of her death, so she can make a correct response in line with the mother, but this map cannot correctly replace the mother to develop new ideas. The information received by this map will not be known to the mother. So I think this is still not a good solution. I think that I want my mother to be alive, not because I need her in my life, but because I want her to see my life, and I hope she can experience more happiness in life. Just like when I was a child, when I saw a cloud, I also called my mother to see it, I just hoped that my mother could see the miracle I saw.

Connor opened his mother's hand-painted book and saw the story of his dream. Maybe his mother told him, it was more to echo the movie, so that Connor and the deceased mother had a kind of communication and comfort at the end.

In the first story, the dryad said that the prince killed the peasant woman, the prince may have suddenly become so bad, and then although he sat on the throne, he felt guilty ever since. Perhaps the peasant woman asked the prince to do so, but the prince still felt guilty and felt that he had killed the peasant woman. No matter whether the queen killed the king or not, it is an indisputable fact that the queen wants to marry the prince and therefore force the prince away. Isn't the queen a bad person? Maybe the throne is bad, and the person who wants to win it pays a price, which may be the prince's remorse and the life of the peasant woman. What does this story have to do with appeasing Connor, I don't think it has anything to do with it, it's just amazing. You can't tell Connor that a bad person can be a good person, and you can't just say that the prince is a good king. Connor's morals are very strict. He always says that I have done bad things and should be punished, but no one punishes him. Even the classmates who bullied him are reluctant to beat him. Instead, he broke his classmates and his grandmother. 's collection. Everyone forgives him because he is losing his mother.

The second story is also in my mother's picture book. Is there anything wrong with a desperate person who has given up on his beliefs? If faith means losing what you love most and bringing you the greatest punishment, why can't you give up? If the pharmacist is right, why can't they be converted? Why wouldn't the pharmacist save the pastor's child? All I can say is that he was narrow-minded, or that he knew that he could not be saved, so he simply did not save him. Instead, the dryad said that he had lost his faith and was hopeless. But if the pastor is holding on to his faith, he should understand that his child is incurable but dead. So the dryad meant to tell Connor, should you give up. Maybe yes, but it's not interpreted that way in the movie. Connor even thought he had found a way to save his mother. Yew tree can cure all diseases, as long as you can make it. In other words, when you are holding on to illusory hope, the antidote is only a temporary last placebo. Tell yourself I've tried them all. In the end I was helpless.

The third story, about the invisible man. It's a very short story with no pictures, so it's hard for me to remember the story. In order to prove their existence, the invisible man carried out sabotage. So Connor also sabotaged. Thinking about it now, this invisible man is no longer able to affect the existence of reality, and it is still Connor who is causing the damage. The pain of losing his mother is invisible, and if Connor does nothing, the invisible man can't do any harm. Therefore, there is a kind of pain, as long as we endure it, apart from the pain, there is no harm. Connor lost her mother much younger than me. Thinking about the carefree time I spent, any happiness I experience now comes with a kind of sadness that my mom can no longer experience. Since then, every happiness I have has faded away. However, I can also pretend this invisible man doesn't exist. Even if I let this invisible man destroy and manifest, it won't disappear, I just have to let it exist and complain to me.

The last story, Connor told the Dryad, he wanted the pain to end. Of course he didn't give up on his mother, and finally he told her that he didn't want her to leave. It's like I told the doctor rationally that the rescue can be stopped. But I still hope that my mother can suddenly be alive. But reason tells me that my mother has been burned to ashes.

We know that we should let her go, although we are very sad, although we will always be sad, but this is life. People are always going to die, and if you're alive, you have to watch the people you love die. If you die first, you always have to worry about how the people you love will live after you die, and you always want them to be happier. Although they may be really difficult to do.

Of course, I also know how much trouble it will bring to my life if my mother rescues her but she has become a vegetative state. I also know that my mother does not want such a thing to happen. There is no chance to go back and give up, but I still feel that I would rather endure the pain as long as my mother is still by my side. I also recognize families who have given up on vegetative states. Maybe in the end, whether the relatives are alive or not will not make any difference to the relatives who have become vegetative. It is only meaningful to the living family members, depending on whether they feel that the relatives are still in good condition, or it is better to end it as soon as possible.

But what if one day the vegetative person recovers? Don't you regret giving them up?

No matter what you choose, the pain will last forever.
