She said: She will meet a gentle man, in the first year after marriage they will make love a lot of times, and then less and less in the second and third year, and will have a child when there is no passion at all. After repaying the mortgage and taking care of the children, I gradually became a workaholic. Then ten years later, my husband had an affair and quarreled. After a few years, my husband will pretend not to know when he has a second lover... I'm fine really.
Our Veronica is so sober, the so-called life is nothing more than this, what else is worth looking forward to? I often think so too. When riding in the car. When walking. When I wake up in the morning. If the future life is so easy to predict, is it too boring, then what is the so-called meaning?
So Veronica decided to die.
Play the CD, arrange the pills neatly, and swallow the pills amidst the misty and blurred music of everything in its right place in Radiohead. Trying to stay awake before the medicine is fully exerted, she wrote a suicide note, she said why people just don't want to recognize who they are. Suicide is better than joining this collective crazy world. This is not the real world.
I like this part of the video very much so far. If Veronica died, and then began to talk about the world before and after her death, I also think it is reasonable. But Veronica did not die. She was rescued and sent to a mental hospital. When I woke up, I was told that I didn't have many days to live because of the tumors in my arteries. This is really unexpected, and there seems to be no reason to commit suicide again.
Suddenly fell into a cliché in the second half. Veronica foresaw another patient, and after that, the two fell in love and saved each other. She will find that her heart disease has been cured. From then on, she thinks that every day after that is a miracle and is grateful. To be honest, I don't like this arrangement. I would rather Veronica die at the beginning, or at least get salvation in another way, a kind of self-understanding power that is only given.
The reason why people are so miserable is that there is too much difference between the real world and self-expectations. Veronica had to conform to the expectations of her parents, conform to the requirements of the world, that was not what she wanted, so it was so painful. If you are strong enough, it will be strong enough to resist the world. But how can a small person resist this world? Or be overwhelmed by a huge sense of loneliness before conquering the world. Our will is not enough to support our soft soul.
Then I thought about it but couldn't find a better way than love. Without an opportunity, the development of the plot cannot be triggered, and the complete cognition of self and the world cannot be completed. If this opportunity is not because of love, I can hardly imagine how many years Veronica will continue to suffer, or because the process is so painful that she will choose another death. It's too lonely to be alone. If there is another person together. two against the world.
I am a skeptic and don't think that Veronica and Edward have lived happily ever after. Because Edward may also end up like Veronica said at the beginning, the two people ended up looking at each other. But I believe Veronica will never regret it. That was her "chosen" life, not a "forced choice" life. There is nothing to regret.
After all, it is love that drives the movement of this world, and it is definitely love that makes people redeemed. Love, in the end, may be nothing more than a lie, but we all believe it.
