Get up early every morning at the seaside cafe to learn how to adjust pressure, scuba, gestures and other theoretical knowledge. At that time, I had no concept of diving at all. I only felt that the bottom of the sea was a very scary place, unknown, dark, and at a loss. Even trying to dive in a three-meter-deep swimming pool is terrifying.
Still in the sea. With the nausea and powerlessness of seasickness, he rolled down the stairs, jumped off the boat and floated on the sea to vomit. Terribly embarrassed. I don't know if I can complete the task. Helpless with jackets, scuba, balance pressure. Don't let your first dive become the beginning of your hatred of diving, the instructor said. I smiled wryly, it's hard to say.
Anyway, after sinking into the water, the world is different. Another world, a world you have never experienced before: you can't hear the complexity of the world, only the blisters brush your ears; you can't see the rush of traffic, only the schools of fish and sea anemones compete for beauty. Looking up at the sea surface, the diving is not deep, so the sun shines through the layers of the water waves, bright and narrow, but still feel, here, you are so lonely.
Jack said he often dived to the bottom of the ocean for no reason to come up. There are too many connections in the outside world, none of them belong to him, but here, it belongs to him. Even the heartbeat and breathing are adapted. Because the bottom of the sea is a lonely world, and he is a lonely child.
Jack is used to this kind of loneliness, so he loves it here.
I don't. I still long to go back to the shore, sit on the beach and have a big BBQ, chatting and laughing with everyone. I am nostalgic for every inch of brilliance in this world, looking forward to more surprises from it, and I also have a lot of love in my heart that I want to dedicate to this world. Our world is people, JACK's world is the sea. The love he has harvested comes from the sea, the bottom of the sea, the dolphins, everything in the sea, and his soul belongs to the sea and will be recalled sooner or later. As we belong to this floating world. Jack will come back and dive, but the purpose of our dive was to peek out from the sea and sit in the cafe to discuss what kind of turtles we encountered and how cute we saw killer whales.
However, this quiet film allows us to squat in the quiet and lonely little corner of our hearts and chew on the loneliness in our subconscious mind.
