Feelings of "One One"

Remember I asked you if you felt old after being with me. And you always answer naughty, I am three years older than you, and you will never grow old with me. Until that night, after watching "Yiyi", you sent a text message "I still couldn't help crying, I feel like I'm getting old too". I remember the fat man in the play who said, "The invention of the movie has tripled our lives." Indeed, in just three hours, it seems like a lifetime has passed, and the years are passing by frame by frame. , lost in the crowd of people in a hurry. About children, about philosophy "I can't see what you can't see, and you can't see what I can't see, how do I know what you're seeing?". - Are the so-called adults of Yangyang really unable to see? Or have their eyes been obscured by the cruel world. The philosopher gave Sophie an analogy, saying that a family of three eats together, and the child is only 5 years old. When the mother turned around to serve the dishes, the father suddenly flew up, and the child looked at the father naturally and said: " When can you teach me to fly?" We can also imagine how surprised Mom would be when she looked back. It's all just because my mother has become an adult. When she was still curious about the world, it was the adults who told them what was possible and what was impossible. Gradually, she also became an adult, an adult who thought she knew how to live, and it was difficult for her to subvert what she thought was possible and impossible. Therefore, only children will have the most rare curiosity. Children will not do the same thing comfortably every day. He will use his unique restlessness to recognize, discover, and create new worlds. Therefore, Yang Yang will ask so many questions, take pictures of things that others can't see, and want to know things that others don't know in the future, and show them things they can't see. Yang Yang's words are exactly what Yang Dechang wants to tell people, just like Jostan Judd's thoughts: curiosity is the source of all thoughts. I remember the Taiwanese architect from MADA said to me, "If you still have such curiosity at the age of 30, you may not become a philosopher, but this kind of philosophical thinking will allow you to have unlimited creativity. It will also allow you to achieve infinite miracles.” Someone once suggested that I should be more mature, and I can't help but ask, is this really the case? What is the so-called mature standard? Is it possible that one day I really compromise, the accident, the reality, the power, will I become mature? I will not forget what I have always insisted on. I like to call myself a child very much, because when I am confused and hesitant, it is definitely right to make decisions according to the child's thoughts. I know that I will eventually become an adult, but I will never pretend to be an adult, as if the truth is in my own hands. We only have one life, and there is no rehearsal, so we can't be sure that what we do is right, but we can be sure to do what we want. The reason why there are so few miracles is just because there are too many "adults" before the miracles telling you that it is impossible. Fallen leaves under the trees, duckweeds on the water, things compete with each other, and the same destination in different ways. We are all in a circle, everything is not that complicated, and insisting on childlike curiosity and authenticity is philosophy. About love, about soul "You always wanted me to study computer science and get a Ph.D. I was afraid that I would not be able to support you in the future, but have you really asked me what I wanted to do? On the day I was admitted to the computer science department, my father I am very happy, my mother is very happy, you are also very happy, and I? Instead, I became the saddest person. Man, it is impossible for another person to teach him how to live and how to live, that is very sad , you know? But this person is the person I love the most." - NJ has been asking himself recently: what is the fulcrum of love. A few days ago, my good friend broke up with his girlfriend. He told me painfully that since she got that disease and changed her appearance after taking hormones, she can't find the way she used to feel. But not long after, when he had another new love, I couldn't help but want to continue the last conversation. "Do you understand?" I asked. "What do you want to understand?" "Do you think your love for her would be different from the last she you loved?" "Of course it is." "Then if the same misfortune happened to her, would it be different?" " What are you talking about... If you say that, what if I die one day?" Some people think that love does not need a reason, maybe he is right, and I don't want to refute it. But the relationship between two people, in terms of appearance, pleasure, mutual care and common memory, once they lose weight, love will become fragile. Because we can't be sure that we will be like this the next second, because we can't be sure that each other's pleasure will last in this world full of temptations and traps, because we can't completely give up ourselves and satisfy each other's needs, because then The good memories of more experiences together, after the two people's minds break apart, will only be the material of sadness when they use it later. So why do we believe in love? But I am not despairing of love. Similarly, I will still choose to wait, enrich myself along the way, and wait for the resonance in the depths of my soul. Two people who are deeply in love, but cannot achieve some kind of resonance in their souls, how helpless, regrettable and sad. Just like the incomprehensible words between NJ and Ari, only time will give each other answers, because some people will not be there once they miss it. It is precisely because the resonance of the soul is so rare that true love seems so possible but not desirable. In reality, there are more incomprehensible words sandwiched between the two. Since you don't want to have a soul, let "Later" sing and cry more people. About youth, about life "Is the world so beautiful only when you close your eyes in the end?" - Tingting Facing the youth I'm experiencing now, I just want to say: don't break out in youth, just in youth perish in. Because the cruelty of youth is stronger than any kind of pain. Just like "Guling Street Teenage Murder", Yang Dechang continued his way of reflecting on youth, a state of restlessness, danger and cruelty. The only sharp and restless thing in "Yi Yi" is precisely this youthful youth. After youth, some people leave, some are numb, some sink, some compromise, and the same is true for some people who are reborn from the ashes, more sober and self-consciously pure and creative. The cruelty of youth comes from our ignorance of the unknown world, so we are curious, searching, hurting, and bewildered. Tingting, a good-looking girl with pure and optimistic thoughts and excellent grades, is deeply entangled in her friendship with Lily and her love with Fatty. She didn't understand why her friendship with Lily was so fragile, and why Fatty would leave. She was confused, why she didn't do anything bad, but God was so unfair. Why the world is not what we think it is. Once we simply walked into this world, we could face the first injury with optimism, so what about the second and third time? Is it really only the world that you can see when you close your eyes in the end, can it be so beautiful? Lily, when the cello performance was temporarily cancelled, she came home to find her mother was having an affair with her foreign language teacher. She was desperate, and she shouted helplessly over and over again: "The show is canceled, where can I go if I don't go home?" The hysterical cry at the end made me so sad. Fatty, his sentence "No cloud and a tree is not beautiful" is a helpless and sad contrast to what he said to Tingting later. He also loves movies and loves to chew those words. He loves Lily, and all he wants to give her is a world of peace for you. Look at that, they are so innocent, yet they hurt each other. In fact, isn't youth the epitome of curiosity, search, injury, and confusion in human life? Youth is to life as life is to history. Let's go all the way like this, forgive those who bring disaster to people, because people's life is like a teenager, they are so innocent, because they don't know what they are doing. At this moment, I realized that all the stories of human beings are a hymn of youth. About the far point, about self-knowledge "Why do I live the same every day, why there are so few, I feel that I have lived in vain in this life". - Minmin If one's life is a circle, then middle age will be the farthest from the origin, and therefore will be the most confused. Seeing that more and more people are working hard every day for bigger houses and more luxurious cars, they forget themselves and become slaves of life day by day. Until one day I get hysterical and don't know what I'm doing, why I'm doing it, and why I'm not happy. How can you be happy if you don't do what you like to do? Talking to my mother-in-law every day is like facing a mirror and facing my conscience. If we had this mirror early, wouldn't we be farther and farther from the truth? But Yang Dechang did not make me despair, because the appearance of Daejeon made me see a kind of warmth and hope. When I saw him intoxicated singing in front of the piano in the bar, I remembered what Daejeon said, "When I was a child, my family was poor, and it was music that made me believe that the world is a beautiful place." I believe that Daejeon, who is also the CEO of the company, will be plagued by too many trivial matters, but he can live soberly, self-consciously and happily. Socrates once said that the unexamined life is not worth living. Only through the process of self-examination can one have true happiness. And the true and correct code of thought and behavior lies deep in our hearts, no matter how hidden it is. So no one can teach others the truth about life. If the truth is not within you, you cannot find it. But if it's deep within you, only relentless criticism and self-examination can reveal it. In fact, each of us needs such a mother-in-law, such a mirror, and such a sober and persevering life. "Yi Yi", Yang Dechang's last film, is full of his life thinking about life and what he wants to say to people. I watched the movie three times and wrote these words. But I think I will still read and write again, because how can life be explained by the words of a 21-year-old boy like me?

Yi Yi: A One and a Two... quotes

  • Ota: Why are we afraid of the first time? Every day in life is a first time. Every morning is new. We never live the same day twice. We're never afraid of getting up every morning. Why?

  • Yang-Yang: I'm sorry, Grandma. It wasn't that I didn't want to talk to you. I think all the stuff I could tell you... You must already know. Otherwise, you wouldn't always tell me to 'Listen!' They all say you've gone away. But you didn't tell me where you went. I guess it's someplace you think I should know. But, Grandma, I know so little. Do you know what I want to do when I grow up? I want to tell people things they don't know. Show them stuff they haven't seen. It'll be so much fun. Perhaps one day... I'll find out where you've gone. If I do, can I tell everyone, and bring them to visit you? Grandma, I miss you. Especially when I see my newborn cousin who still doesn't have a name. He reminds me that you always said you felt old. I want to tell him that I feel I am old, too.
