Born to be human, please say goodbye

It's one of my favorite episodes of Black Mirror I've ever seen, some thoughts:

1. When I was young, or sometimes I thought,

who I am. Why am I here. Why am I in this body. Where is the real me.

Thinking about it, I was surrounded by myself. endless.

God, this is not the same as those CODE people.

Those who are confused about "self-existence". Confusion about what is true and what is false.

2. The poor replica spends years in an imaginary space,

Nothing to do they say, I will do anything. Please give me something to do.

If you have also been in an unfamiliar place with limited resources,

You'll know what it's like to be needed, to be able to work, to do whatever it takes to be fulfilling, and what a great thing it is.

3. Although the first story is rather tasteless, there is a line that is really good:

It's like when you jump into a pool and you are worried that the water is going to be cold. but you know moments after you jump in that it will be fine. It's the fear of the shock that holds you back. Ultimately, the only thing you're worried about is the transition from one state to another.

Don't be afraid to change, it's just an adaptation process.

4. Born to be human, please say goodbye

I believe many people will sympathize with the murderer. The reason why he became so extreme is that he was ignored and blocked over time. Of course, this can't be the reason for killing, but it is definitely the reason for his psychopathy. And, the love for that child for granted. The expectation and dedication of such love year after year ended in exchange for a child who was not his own at all. If you cheat, don't be discovered by the other party. If you break up, at least explain the reason. Because not everyone in the world can LET IT GO, at least give others a normal sense of ritual. Being blocked for life is a perverted trial and torture.

5. Please be careful when you block

I didn't block it. But all the anger will be lifted later. also deleted. The real experience is to block the ex who has been together for 4 years. But to be honest, I've dreamed of him every now and then since then. Blocking is not letting go, it will also make the other party crazy. Now we are still WeChat friends. Occasionally talk and laugh and give a like in the circle of friends. A person you have truly loved, don't block it.
