"Children, you are still single, still trying to find a lifelong happiness, but in all the love stories you have experienced, only one can have a happy ending, and all the others will hurt one of them."
But everyone knows to find one. A girl is like fishing for a fish in a sea, and the probability of catching a mermaid is as small as zero. Of course, the worst thing is not that you can't find a mermaid, but that you can get it back with nothing.
Every young man in this period is very similar to Ted in the first episode. At first, he fell in love with not a girl, but an abstract concept like marriage.
Just because he thought he should get married, he thought he should also find a girl to live with him, so he did that.
Everyone should have their own first love. It should be a wonderful thing to be able to walk with the first love in the palace of marriage, but many people also doubt it. If you play online games, you have to constantly fight against elementary monsters to upgrade. Why is love to meet the ultimate boss directly!
I dare not talk too much on this topic, I still know the truth that more words will lose. But at this point, we can’t help but recall the past. So what makes us recall the past?
When I was young, most of the story books I read were loyal ministers of Chinese history, loyal ministers and loyal generals, filial sons and virtuous grandchildren, but there is a small story I remember very clearly, that is, from a primary school composition class, I listened to the teacher’s model essay by a girl in the class, and it said: "I like the sea, because there are shells on the seashore, and every shell is different. Hold it next to your ear and quietly, you can hear the shell tell you stories about it in the sea." It's so beautiful! This is the only elementary school composition that I find the most interesting. She tells a story, a very small story, but this story seems to contain all the stories in the world.
Why do you say this? Because I was thinking about how we have formed the habits that have affected us the most since we were young. If we want to explore the formation of these habits, we have to constantly recall all the trivial things in the past, those trivial things. Things are like shells scattered on the beach, some are complete, some are broken, you can pick up some, but you will inevitably lose more.
Ted’s story starts with a shirt.
"It's strange to say that I have bought this shirt for 6 years, but I haven't noticed it at all until this morning. Haha, you see my taste has changed now."
Ted's wardrobe It's not very big, so this scene is not so convincing, but the truth is still correct, don't we also have the saying about riding a donkey to find a donkey? The things that are around are often the most overlooked.
Ted probably didn't like this brown dress with green in the middle. Lily felt strange when she described this, which confirmed that it was indeed different from Ted's previous dresses.
Ted picked up a glass of wine at random and took a sip and asked, "Whose bourbon is this?"
Lily said, "Who knows, we were already here when we came."
Ted's face changed from frustration. It immediately became a little bit of joy: "The point is not this, the important thing is that I seem to like bourbon now, but I remember I said I hate this before. First it was shirts, then bourbon again, could it be that I Can I change the likes and dislikes of things that I spent 27 years forming in an instant?" Can
Ted really remember his description of the likes and dislikes of things in the past 27 years? No, that's just a feeling. In this case, you can't list them item by item. You just feel that you are different from the past, but you don't know exactly what is different.
Ted talked about the movie he hated once he saw it. It was raining when I went and I never wanted to go to the city again. It might be time to have a new perspective on things.
Movies, um, can you remember what movies you have watched repeatedly? Too ashamed to say, I bet that most of these friends around me should be red war movies, such as "Little Soldier Zhang Ga", "Tunnel Warfare", "Mine Warfare", etc., or Zhou Xingchi's Those nonsense funny films. For me, the movie I've seen many times should be "Gone with the Wind".
Every time I watch the same movie, it is not a simple repetition, but a different mood every time, or most notably, watching it with different people will make it different. The movie does not evoke all your memories of the past, but only acts on a part of it, the part closest to us that is most relevant.
Explain this.
For example, when I watched "The Lord of the Rings" for the first time, I was with Xiaolou. At that time, I had just graduated to work and spent a whole day watching the Devildom Trilogy in the shared room. That was the first time I watched it, but Xiaolou was not. When I was attentively following the development of the plot of the movie, Xiaolou already knew the ending of this stage. This is the difference, right, this is the difference.
For example, the second time I watched the Lord of the Rings by myself, I already bought a house, but Sasha went on a business trip. During the big weekend, I really didn’t want to move at home by myself, and I just had time, so I hid the disc for a long time. Take it out and watch it by yourself. This time, as the story progresses, I always remember what He Xiaolou said when he first watched it, and how I responded at the time. Right, this is the difference, right?
For example, the third time I watched it, this time it was extremely unsuccessful. Sasha has always disliked this type of film because she thinks the style is too horrible. She likes the beautiful colors and complicated emotions of Korea. Things that are as heavy as epic are not in the eyes of the law at all. I didn't finish it this time, and for the first time I had unpleasant thoughts because of seeing the Lord of the Rings. See if this is also different?
When will I see the Lord of the Rings for the fourth time? Where will it be? Who will it be with?
No one knows!
In fact, no matter what you do, it’s the same. How do you know if you’re doing things now or not? How do the people around you know that they will be there again after a few years.
Recalling is not an easy thing, not because it is not easy to recall the action, but because of the memory itself.
