went to the cinema a few days ago to watch the cartoon "Miracles Out of Heaven" (UP). Pixar usually has a short film for a few minutes before the main feature. This time the short film is called "Partly Cloudy", which tells the story between a cloud named Gus and a stork named Peck. I like it very much, it's a long aftertaste.
When Pixar's cartoons try to reason, sometimes they are more impressive than the pure reasoning art films, perhaps because complicated human affairs actually contain very simple truths, or maybe it is because In cartoon humor, any heavy truth can be sublimated into a tearful knowing smile.

There is a kind of loneliness like Gus.
He always creates aggressive little animals that hurt Peck, who is in charge of "delivery", but Peck works very hard. No matter what Gus makes that is not cute, he will accept it according to the order. Seeing that Peck, who has returned from mission time and time again, becomes more and more weak and tired, Gus feels guilty, distressed, helpless, and happy, but the clumsy Gus is still unable to create a cute baby for Peck like other clouds. Shipping, Peck had to continue to work hard.
Gus's loneliness is this: it's not that he doesn't want to make cute babies, and it's not that he doesn't know that making those aggressive babies will make Peck scarred, but he can only make babies like this.
What should Gus do? It's like a practice question that has been done several times and still can't figure out the answer when you get to the exam room.

Finally, at one point, when Gus made another terrifying baby shark for Peck, Peck seemed to hold back a little, he looked at Gus nervously, then turned away and flew to another cloud that would make a cute baby There. Feeling betrayed, Gus was angry and frustrated, and burst into tears. Oddly enough, Peck flew back again, donning the helmet and bodysuit from the other clouds, and spreading his arms ready to take on the trouble Gus created again.
Peck didn't abandon Gus.
Gus was still innocent, and happily made an electric eel and handed it to Peck, who was still dazed by the electric shock.

It's easy to pretend love, we can spend money to buy peace of mind, and we can say a lot of sweet words that are exaggerated. But true love cannot be faked, because love must be giving, and giving itself often means sacrifice. "Sacrificing oneself" is the same in family, love, friendship... in any kind of relationship, it is not a simple matter.
Being gentle should be the first condition of love. But in addition to gentleness, you must also have wisdom and morality to support others. Like Peck did with Gus, he did not choose to walk away when he encountered problems, but tried every means to coordinate with each other, so that he could be tolerant because of understanding, and able to be able because of wisdom and morality. persist in.
I am reminded of the line from "The Kite Runner" that goes on and on: "For you, a thousand times over." In our life, many people choose to leave you, and you choose to leave many people; but if there is such a day, when you choose not to leave someone, or someone chooses not to leave you, I think this is the most beautiful scenery in the world .
