You simply don't have the ability to deal with real life

It can't be regarded as a film review, just want to say something that

you simply don't have the ability to deal with real life. Mother bluntly stated the center of the whole film. Everyone has at least two selves, one exists in the eyes of the world, and the other lives in his own world, as if standing on both sides of the scales and swaying his own life path, losing weight while losing weight.

It is a beautiful dream to live in our own world. We are immersed in the time of breathing in the womb of our mother. We are comfortable and peaceful, without danger, threats, and tension. We live our dreams without any signs of being threatened by others. , Spread your wings and you can sail to infinity at will.


The reality is to hold a chain of the ankle in the flight, and only a slight pull can bring people back to the place we are now avoiding. We can't choose any situation where we feel helpless.

Zhuangzi dreamed of butterflies. He didn't know whether he was a butterfly's dream, or just a butterfly in his simple dream. With choice, he would rather be the butterfly, wash away the worries of the world, and flamboyantly among the flowers.

You all look alike, without a real face. If you freeze yourself in a certain position, you will really be rooted and unable to leave. After you move, you will realize that you have been nailed to death here.

To confuse oneself in life is a blindly effective anesthetic, a cushion to alleviate the pain we suffer in this world, but it is not the ultimate solution after all. Wake up, pick up the dropped sword, and move forward firmly, there will always be an end to the road.
