The meaning of life is that the world generates greater connections

After watching this movie, I actually didn't fully understand it, but I could understand that this man always wanted to commit suicide, and he met three people who could help him commit suicide, one was a young soldier, and the other was a seminary student. The last one is the old man. The attitude of the first young soldier is to avoid indifference, the attitude of the second seminary is to do his best, but the third old man saves the man with his own experience, it is possible that the suicide A concern was found in the old man. The last scene felt like everyone was filming the scene. What I understand is that he may suddenly regard life as an art, that is, all your pain and happiness are just a fragment in the movie, you don’t need to care about him that much, And this is a bit similar to Nietzsche's "The Birth of Tragedy" in his view of life. You treat your life as a work of art. Pain or happiness is just a real color in your life. Dark spots are also very important works. If there is no dark spot, it is not a work! The two stories told by the old man in the car are particularly classic. One is the story of committing suicide and eating mulberries, and he also gave them to children. Because of suicide, he let the children eat mulberries instead. This may have made him find a life all of a sudden. The meaning of it is somewhat similar to what Lao Tzu said in the Tao Te Ching. The reason why the heaven and earth can be long and long is that they can live forever because they do not care for themselves. The meaning of such a person's life is based on being able to create meaning for others. It expresses the fundamental meaning of life's existence. The other is a story about a man in Turkey who saw a doctor. It is said that when the finger is on the body, it will hurt anywhere. In fact, the finger has a problem. This story may be that our perspective on life is wrong, and It's not that there is a problem with life itself. It's also a bit similar to Feng Youlan's Chinese philosophy, which has become the power of ideas. But just by lecturing, I don't think a person can have confidence in life all of a sudden. Maybe some words of the old man inspired him to use the mental method to look at some people around him. For example, he will see the children in the school. The little bird in the sky will then appreciate the sun alone. I don't think this is what moved him, but his deep connection with life. This kind of unhappiness can only be resolved when it is connected with the whole world. It is difficult for a person to influence the unhappiness of an individual. That is, only life itself and the world can resolve it with the help of Tao. So what I might be thinking about is how precious it is for a person to be able to appreciate the mundane things around you. If you can talk to the one around you

    Re-watch on 2021-9-4; I don’t realize that the last paragraph is preaching. Time can really change a person. I only feel that there is no end to my intentions. It doesn't matter whether we die, or whether there is a possibility of "the taste of cherries" and a momentary insight; what we lack, what we hope for, is the weight that hits the center. The yellow light in the eyes is obscure and oppressive, which coincides with the coexistence of the richness and bleakness of life in autumn; the winding mountain road is the road that has been traveled so far. The encounters on the road may be like meteors passing by, or they may leave marks in your life, and so are the people who enlighten you in the dark. The taste of cherries is hard to come by. The environment part hints at the state of mind. At the end, the trees under a ray of light in the dark are so beautiful. I like the section outside the museum - the sky is clear and gentle, the sky is bright, and everything seems to have hope. Looking back at the fireworks, the world is also full of vitality; important conversations or actions are all alive. It takes place in a medium and long-term perspective, and restores the essence of realism; the dialogue on the winding road is like a voiceover, and the lines are left blank; the different reactions of several people are awesome, and the open ending is endless.

    Very barely passable. It is relatively thin, and Abbas has nothing better to say to the world-weary. He can only talk about the deliciousness of cherries, but if cherries are delicious, they are not world-weary? what logic. The method is very loose.
