This is what I only understood when I grew up.
That night, I sat alone in my room rewatching the movie version of Peter Pan. Peter Pan in the play has always been haunted.
Because we used to be him.
I do not want to grow up. Why? Why are some people so sensitive to growth, so repulsive? And some people accept it so naturally? The former kind of people they have a common name is Peter Pan.
Peter Pan, who can fly freely, has clear eyes. He was flying alone in this world, but at times he would be furious because he couldn't control his shadow.
What is our shadow? Is it another self?
Peter Pan with clear eyes finally met Wendy one day, a girl with clear eyes as well. She looked so beautiful, like an angel who came to the world.
Wendy helps Peter Pan to subdue her shadow. Peter Pan took Wendy to a fairy tale world. There are bad guys like Hook in this world, but it's still good.
Peter Pan and his little companion couldn't bear to stain Wendy's white pajamas with their dirty hands, so they built a wooden house full of flowers for Wendy where she slept; the starry night , Peter Pan takes Wendy to see a mermaid she has never seen before, although it is not the beautiful and sentimental mermaid princess in the fairy tale; Peter Pan and Wendy dance in the dense woods, in the light of the elf, they look so happy , so carefree, but in the middle of the jump, Peter Pan suddenly asked: "Wendy, everything is just an illusion, isn't it? You and me" Wendy lowered her head sadly and slowly.
Everything is just an illusion. The fairy tale itself also begins to feel fragmented to us.
Illusory, futile, and confused, we can't catch anything in a game of love, and even in the end we have to wonder if we have really loved or been loved.
Illusion means disillusionment. I know Peter Pan is afraid, he is afraid that love will disappear without a sound.
Maybe I am really no longer a child, and I began to understand fairy tales and the language of fairy tales in an adult way, probably this is our sorrow.
Wendy wanted to go home and she asked Pan, "Are you going too?"
"Will they send me to school?"
"Yes"
"And... work?"
"I think so."
"Soon I will Will be a man...you won't make me a man...I want to be a boy all the time, full of joy."
"You say that, but I think it's the greatest hypocrisy."
Peter Pan beat again and again Hook, but when Hook said, "Your Wendy is leaving you", Peter was defeated and even lost the last shred of strength. At this time, Wendy desperately ran to Peter's side and whispered to him,
"Peter, I'm sorry, I have to grow up.
But, this is for you. It's just a thimble.
This is yours, and Always."
So Wendy put a light kiss on Peter's mouth. Of course, Peter Pan gained the power of rebirth.
Eventually, Wendy and her brother came home, and they still needed to grow up.
Lonely Peter Pan watched them go back.
"Life is a big adventure."
Wendy asked Peter as Peter Pan turned to leave,
"You won't forget me, will you?"
"Me? Forget you? Never. "
Will you come back?"
"Yes. Listen to your stories, about me."
Then Peter Pan returned to his world alone.
The final narration of the film says that
all the children have grown up except one.
