Create different dreams for different people-we need to be inspired by different stories

Thaddeus 2021-12-18 08:01:16

A person's entire life is actually the process of telling stories to himself and fulfilling the story. When we were just enlightened, our heads began to be filled with various stories, Aesop’s Fables, One Thousand and One Nights, the Frog Prince, Snow White, and the New White Lady, Journey to the West, and Black Cat Police long. Before our rational judgment values ​​mature, the stories we are most familiar with, their worldviews, structures and character settings, all sneak into our hearts silently.

Alice itself is a good story, this story is especially suitable for those fantasy girls who are judged by people around them as "excessive imagination". You will easily see yourself in Alice, another similar story is set by the crazy girl Luna in Harry Potter. In reality, such a girl often doesn't talk much. Her eyes are as big and protruding as lanterns. She always seems to be indulged in her fantasy world. There are all sorts of wild things waiting for her to discover. From getting bigger and smaller in the first part to the time passing in the second part, in the rabbit hole of imagination, parallel time and space can arbitrarily warp time.

Another interesting perspective is that in recent years, Disney animations have liberated women from the setting of "marriage partners" and deliberately set "boyfriends" as bad characters. The main theme is always the process of women's self-awakening of courage and consciousness, shouldering mission and responsibility and working hard to complete. In such a story, love no longer has any value, and marriage as a system is lightly mocked-the duke marriage in Alice 2 is a typical example. Behind this, in addition to the splendor of the plot, it actually embodies the social trend that the script must conform to-the complete bankruptcy of the marriage system and the interpretation theory of love, and the existence of single parents, celibacy, open relationships and other forms of family existence have begun to become new "Princesses and princes lead a happy life" becomes a very incorrect politics for a very small number of people.

The liberation of imagination comes to a large extent from expanding the stories you know, and storing enough and rich enough story models that are therefore highly accurate. The progress of a social group often comes from respect for diversity-you are a girl with a brain, just look at Alice. You are a lonely boy who is not understood by others, just watch "Harry Potter" and "Jungle Book". You are a good friend with a deep friendship, so you can naturally choose "Frozen", and as a lonely disadvantaged group of girls, embrace Big dream, welcome to the "Crazy Zoo" where the sense of self-substitution can be overwhelming. I love these stories from the bottom of my heart. They seem to have gradually refilled a relatively empty and blank teenage self-awareness after I became an adult. At that time, the only works that we could substitute for ourselves were " The Triple Door and Rao Xueman. . .

In comparison, we are still too limited to truly explore and explore the different events experienced by different groups in society. We can only tell repeatedly-the story of a good-looking high school student who fell in love with each other early, the story of urban youth tumbling with each other in the workplace of foreign companies, and the story of self-lost of middle-aged men with a little money. And, how many years have passed, still can only go back to Journey to the West, go back to the Forbidden City, go back to the time of war to tell stories. In this era of great change, we have so many people to pay attention to, so many stories to carefully dig and record. It may be how young urban young people with high housing prices slowly find their meaning in life, and it may be how girls in the era of great changes can reshape their lives. And to build up our own confidence, perhaps we should take out Lee Ang's "Diet Men and Women" book again, and retell the story of the relationship between us and our parents in this era.

It’s also a story about entrepreneurship. One way of saying it is called "The Martian", another way of saying it is called "Social Network", and another way of saying it is called "Jobs." Baba and the Eighteen Arhats. . .

There are some people who have been glorious, then darkened for 1,000 years, and found the light again. They cherish the light especially, and they especially want to make the light longer, longer and brighter.

There are some people who have been in total darkness for more than two hundred years, but they still refuse to admit that they are in the dark. They always describe to others, what is your light bulb? My ancestor had 10,000 candles in the last room. , It's so bright that people can't open their eyes, it's better than yours.

In this place, the classification of women has just been liberated from the marriage partner and has begun to become a "consumer". According to the returnee elite, rich second generation, foreigners, and interns, they are all put into a building in Shanghai. The labeled and formatted people, the enlarged class discussion and an ideological report that "Only rise is the right way". People have been humbled for a long time, and holding a golden rice bowl is also begging for food.

If you can't find the story you want in popular culture, look for it in thousands of literary books.

Otherwise, you can write one yourself.
