the longest distance in the world

As an otaku, I travel a lot. There are those who pack their bags on a whim and go straight to the road, and there are those who have been preparing carefully for a long time. Although I can always take advantage of it and return with joy, there is not a time when the aftertaste lingers around the beam so that I can keep thinking about it afterwards.

I often wonder, what are those lonely travelers looking for?

The more developed the transportation, the smaller the regional obstacles, and the greater the emptiness in the heart. When flying around China, I often miss the feeling of taking the train in college. Several classmates sat together, eating snacks and playing poker, full of expectations and joy, galloping across the vast land of the motherland, events, places, characters, Events are so orderly, there is no confusion at all, it is full of excitement. Now, a person, without speaking, sits in a small plane seat, quietly playing PSP, and appears on the streets of another city for a few hours, facing everything that is about to happen with a professional expression and mentality.

Television network magazines, overwhelmingly publicizing the beauty of various places, do not know that it is like a spoiler, and all expectations and expectations are exhausted. Even though traveling can be a great way to relax your body and mind, it’s easy to get tired of completing tasks and enjoying the sights you expect. A person who simply searches for pictures and videos on the Internet can get more perspectives and perceptions than someone who has been there in person. Even if some people insist that whether they have been there in person or not is completely different, but when you feel When you are accustomed to traveling through various scenery, you will understand that there is heaven and earth in your heart, and clouds and smoke will disappear with your eyes.

What to accompany on the trip? Some say it's music, some say it's friends, some say it's recording. I think it depends.

There is a music map in "Elizabethtown". With the map, you can listen to blues music and feel the unique customs of Kentucky. I once did it in Wuhan (unfinished), and at that time, I played "The Yangtze River Bridge" scarborough fair", and then the section from the bridge to the Sikou is "fire of lake", and the section at the Simen is "When You Say Nothing At All", then go to the 521 bus stop to change to "dangerous", walk obliquely Listening to "Love Transfer" and "Under Mount Fuji" all the way to the reading horse farm is actually a very interesting thing. However, when you keep walking and listening alone, you are slowly eroded by loneliness.

"Love at the Break of Dawn" can be regarded as a leader in travel chattery and romantic encounters, but if you really believe it, you are wrong. Two people who are so compatible, let alone meet by chance, just write a notice of missing people and throw them in the west of Beijing. After a half-year search in the hall of the station, it may not be possible to meet them. All the jokes that come out of the mouth, simple yet profound metaphors, timeless and refined emotions, are all created by a hard-working screenwriter YY for a long time. Two people who never knew each other, whether it is the beginning of greetings, or the extension of their hobbies, In the end, the collision of ideas is not something that can be easily accomplished overnight. It seems that in the animation, everyone has an absolute field, which is completely impenetrable and inaccessible. Even if we can discuss together for a long time and read the boring journey, it is only because the distance from each other is far enough, and there is no need to start guarding.

"I finally came to the waterfall, and I suddenly thought of He Baorong. I felt so sad. I always thought that there should be a couple standing here." This is the line in "Spring Comes Together". Wherever I go, when I see what kind of scenery, I want you to be by my side. Perhaps, I run thousands of miles and dare not get tired, just because the end point is by your side.

All of a sudden, I miss home and you, and even though we are far apart, I feel very close at this moment.

  • Akari ShinoharaTakaki Toono: *Akari and Takaki kiss for the first time*

    Takaki Toono: And right then it felt like I finally understood where everything was, eternity, the heart , the soul. It was like I was sharing every experience I'd ever had in my past 13 years. And then, the next moment, I became unbearably sad. I didn't know what to do with these feeling. Her warmth, her soul. How was I supposed to treat them? That, I did not know. Then right then, I clearly understood that we would never be together. Our lives not yet fully realized, the vast expanse of time. They lay before us and there was nothing we could do. But then, all my worries, all my doubt, started melting away. All that was left were Akari's soft lips on mine.

  • Takaki Toono: On that day... the day she called... Akari must've been so much more jittery and upset than me, yet I couldn't find the words to console her. I felt so ashamed of myself.
