Goodbye, maybe it's the last time we meet

The story tells about the time when two old friends went out together. It can be said that this trip is their re-acquaintance with each other and themselves, or it can be said that this is the last time they see each other. The story has created two characters with completely different images, one is decadent and lonely, who doesn't know where to go, and the other is free from self and the outside world, who looks more decent, and feels two completely different feelings from it, one is full of energy for the moment. Burning himself out and letting go of everything that is self-supporting, but always immersing and staying in it is more accurate to carry the emotions of the past, whether that emotion is joy or pain, he wants to return or regain that emotion, but reason. And his emotions with another person tell him that some emotions will never go back, so in a way this journey is also a spiritual reconciliation for him. The other person looks so calm. He lives a decent life and can enjoy the tranquility brought by natural hot springs and forests under the scope of his rights, but he is often more miserable. He can't make such reconciliation, because he is rational. And more external factors have already chosen to deviate from the self, bear the pressure of responsibility, and lose a part of the self, so more of him has become obedient. How to accept a person? This eternal proposition is not about how you act or change to accept a person, and I believe that those acceptances will always appear naturally in front of you in different forms, as long as we meet again, even for the last time.

  • Kurt: I want us to be real friends again. There's something between us and I don't like it. I want it to go away.
