this is life

I occasionally watched a movie "Rocket Science" last night, which was translated into "Flying to the Sky", and I felt deeply moved. The film is an American growth film, which explores the temptation, predicament, love and hope in the growth of young people. The protagonist's parents are divorced, and he has a stuttering defect. Because of his ignorant first love, he is eager to break through his own limitations; when the first love proved to be a scam, he still maintains the hope of soaring hope and works hard for it. But the final outcome is that he failed to overcome his own physical defects, but he rethinks what life is. And this is where the film shines. This is not another success story that beats itself, it is not unconventional, but a pure youth story, with a touch of green and sorrow, because this is life.

In fact, each of us has a period of ignorance: our minds are immature, with a peculiar puberty confusion, do not know what the future is, do not know the meaning of life, but sometimes long for love, and even hope like the protagonist of the movie." "Flying to the sky" success. Looking back at myself now, I should have actually had a similar period in junior high school, but after high school I started to be busy with the college entrance examination, with clear goals. When I was in high school, I naturally set ambitious goals, but I didn't imagine what kind of life I would live in the future, but now I think about it, before I came into contact with the society, these visions were always somewhat dreamlike of princes and princesses. So after working for about 6 years, under the background of the economic crisis, the changes in work and the state of existence have brought me an unprecedented low ebb. For a long time, I have been rethinking what life is? Naturally, sometimes there is the illusion of "flying into the sky". I don't know if this is a unique period of confusion before the age of thirty.

But later practice found that we are actually victims of successful education and examination. Regardless of the rules or unspoken rules, we have been educated from an early age to have "lofty ideals" and to be masters; in the big age, we are subconsciously indoctrinated to be "star-like" successes, rich and glamorous, with houses and houses. vehicle. The end result is that we forgot to listen to our own voices, and we forgot to ask ourselves what kind of life we ​​want to live and what kind of person we want to be. If we once had such a trace of self-awareness, then we are also constantly losing ourselves in the competition for social interests that you chase after me. This is the tragedy of our generation. In fact, life is life, life itself is very simple, maybe it is really meaningful if you just "live well". Don't think too much about the future, it may be enough to have a general direction. Step by step, do the present things step by step, and slowly approach your dreams.

So for me, the meaning of life is: by doing today’s things, tomorrow’s self will be better and more fulfilled than today’s self; slowly picking up the things that I gave up in my heart before, such as my love for words and Use; after slowing down, you can make a cup of hot coffee in the sun and write a review of your own experience. In fact, this is life, and such a life is also very good.
