A dream that you can’t control yourself is a bubble that others blow but always feel like it’s going to burst

1900, a number, a year, is also the name of a person who may not be necessary. Does 1900 really exist? That genius pianist who has been on the ship all his life and has never touched the land. I was thinking, if I were 1900, would I disembark, would I go to the girl who fell in love at first sight. To be honest, I am not sure of my answer, because this is really a difficult matter to decide, if I really think about the future a lot. If you get off the boat, will the future be as beautiful as they describe? Be famous, and then? Regularly perform in some theaters full of audiences? Record a recording disc every once in a while? Then? Buy it? A house, living in a fixed circle? Then? Find the girl you fall in love with, get married, and have a baby? Then? Slowly grow old? If so, will you really be happy? Or, Getting off the boat will be even more terrifying. Fame is only short-lived, music is only a very small part of people's lives on land, and there are too many things for them to entertain. So, what am I when I am on land? A pianist? Who knows how many pianists there are on land, and how many other homes of this kind and such there will be. It's different on the ship. I was born here, and I am familiar with this ship, every corner, every undulating and turbulent rhythm, all familiar to me. And that hall, that piano, they are what I can dominate, I am there, I am its soul. On the boat, the audience are passing passengers. I am the host here. They come and go in batches, and I am always here, and I am already familiar with everything here, and all my habits depend on this boat. What happens when I get off the boat? A dream that I can't control is a bubble that others blow but feel that it is about to burst. And staying, I know what will be there, those are all familiar to me, the small cabin where I live, the restaurant where I eat, the happy hall, the piano, the 88 keys on the piano, I They are all very familiar. It's good to stay, why should you disembark? If the ship never sinks, I think, if I were 1900, I would not choose to disembark. As for that girl, why has to get off the boat? If it really belongs to me, why can't we be on this boat together? If it doesn't belong to me, then why don't I stay on this boat and wait, the one who belongs to me.
