Road to adult

After reading it, I didn't know what I wanted to say for a while, probably the kind of mental journey between a boy and a man is too far away from me. I always feel that people grow up overnight. And this kind of growth is often accompanied by unexpected events, a huge sense of frustration, mixed with humiliation, regret, sadness, and powerlessness. The film tells the four fables exchanged with the little boy through this tree man, symbolizing the only way for human growth. (I have seen similar tree people in three consecutive movies ["Guardians of the Galaxy", "Where are Fantastic Beasts", "Monster Summon"] These tree spirits seem to be very popular these days) They represent lies, beliefs , Being ignored, and death. The first is a lie. Except for saints and fools, no adult has never lied. Maybe out of goodwill, maybe out of self-defense protection, maybe out of various interests. The opposite of a lie is the truth. Sometimes the truth is not important, but the result is important. Lies do not necessarily represent evil, and the truth does not necessarily belong to good people. Children see right and wrong, and there are only pros and cons in the adult world. How to distinguish the truth from the false in one story after another, and then make your own choice, continue to defend this lie, or expose it, it represents your character, and every step may determine your future. Then there is faith. In a person's life, it is extremely important to establish correct beliefs at the beginning. Some people say that because of atheism, most Chinese have no faith. In fact, it is wrong. Belief is not necessarily limited to religion. You can get tutoring and practice from your parents, the knowledge and experience you have learned from the vast book, the resonance you get from the people you come into contact with in your childhood environment, and the enlightenment and feedback you have in your life. When it gets bigger, it is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. When it gets smaller, it is also part of its own worldview. Belief is the most powerful spiritual force, but it is also the weakest point that makes people collapse. Just like Antai, the son of the earth in Greek mythology, he could have infinite power when he stepped on the earth, but he was strangled to death by being lifted off the ground and lost his life. The most painful thing is to lose faith. It not only subverts your inner world for many years, but also turns all praise, pride and achievements to ashes. Respecting the old, loving the young, being willing to help others, and good people are rewarded. This belief is deeply ingrained in most people's hearts. However, with the occurrence of many vicious social incidents, more and more people are looking coldly at Mingzhe's death. This is the evil result of the destruction of faith. The third is to be ignored. Humans are group animals and need to judge whether their actions are correct or not based on the reactions of others. The feeling of not getting a response is like shouting to a deep well without responding , Just like watching the fireworks blooming in the distant night sky, but there is no sound in my ears. Ignored loneliness is something that almost everyone fears in their hearts. Some people will lose control of their emotions and become psychologically distorted. Of course, when you look back on your whole life, most of the time we are alone, and loneliness is the normal state of life. The joys and sorrows of life, big and small, are like pouring wine to drink, come alone and go away. Overcoming the frustration and self-denial of being ignored, keeping one's mouth in the group and keeping one's heart alone is also a required course. The last fable is also the deepest and heaviest topic, death. Death is the deepest horror. It is a word that encompasses almost all disciplines. It is both taboo and curiosity, tangible and intangible, and the end is the starting point. It is the greatest fairness that the world bestows on us living creatures. We have all seen dead things and know its inevitable. It has not happened to you at this moment, and you cannot predict exactly what form and time it will come. The only thing you can know is that it will come. Facing the coming of the shadow of death, you can use the five stages of grief to describe: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, until compromise and acceptance. The mother was dying, and this desperate force majeure accelerated the growth of the little boy’s mental journey, just like the pain of a pregnant mother and the exhaustion before the pupa of a butterfly came out. On the edge of the cliff, no matter how hard he worked hard, he couldn't hold his mother's wobbly. This was the most intuitive and cruel expression of death. In the face of irreparable death, we can only calmly follow the situation; when it comes, in addition to letting go, we can only accept this fact. When you finally feel the helpless relief in despair, it means that the adult world has been slowly opened to you. How happy is life, and how hard is death. On the first day of the new year, writing this kind of thing seems a bit gloomy. But I heard about the custom in some places, and there are people who go to tomb-sweeping on the first day of the first lunar month, "please ancestors to celebrate the New Year." Death is not a taboo topic. Only by facing death calmly can you deal with life bravely. Obviously knowing the fate of crossing the hills and being unattended, still willing to be that fool, this is a realm. The process of growth is also a process of constantly accepting new things. Sadness is like pouring wine to drink, coming alone and going away just as sorrowful. Overcoming the frustration and self-denial of being ignored, keeping one's mouth in the group and keeping one's heart alone is also a required course.
