Life is an ILLUSION

Well, I admit that I am rejecting the disappointment brought by this imperfect world at the cost of evolution as a fossil.

I don’t like to go out; I don’t like talking; I don’t like to go shopping; I only send jokes and intelligence tests when I send text messages; I am determined not to watch the news broadcast when I watch TV; I watch movies that are blocked by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television; Cynical; sometimes, the air is muddy. Looking at those bastards who let the old man stand by his bus, I really want to beat him; he is indifferent to the changes of people around him; he laughs or cries only when he is watching a movie... I

am used to falling behind. Go to the newsstand. When the boss recommended a fashion gossip magazine, he gave him a vicious look, then picked up a science magazine that was hidden in the corner and left.

Nothing can irritate me anymore. Going to the supermarket, the smell is only nauseating.

I signed up for many charitable organizations online, thinking that the world would become better in this way.

Then, after watching "Fight Club", I finally realized that what I was doing was something that others had already done. I was walking on a road full of footprints.

I am satisfied with myself and hate myself very much.
Believe in the future, but where will I be when I wake up tomorrow morning?
Want to get the best education, and then worry about whether you will be a product of formatting again?
In the movie, those people said: We are just one of the many beings.
So I want to be different.
But if the wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it?
Or is everyone going to the same destination after all?

Those who have faith make me envy and even jealous. They came to this world with a mission. The key word of their life is not just "self". Every choice they make has a path to follow.
What about me? Am I a child abandoned by God? A selfish and insignificant human being? Or is it a trivial organic matter in the world?

At the end of the movie, Norton shot himself full of primitive desires, watching the collapsed tall building in front of him and holding the woman next to him by the hand. So, does this mean he is back to square one?

Nevertheless, something can never turn back.

Fight Club quotes

  • Narrator: [19:14] You wake up at Seatac, SFO, LAX. You wake up at O'Hare, Dallas-Fort Worth, BWI. Pacific, mountain, central. Lose an hour, gain an hour. This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time. You wake up at Air Harbor International. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?
