I accidentally discussed the theme of suicide in "The Myth of Sisyphus". The movie he recommended was "Million Dollar Baby". I recommended "Me before you". We talked about whether low-quality life Need to persist?
Because I just saw in the news today that two children under the age of 19 died in love and jumped into the river, it made me think about the issue of "Death".
Going back to this show, McGee was born in poverty, had selfish siblings and mother. He was a 31-year-old waiter. He stole the leftover steaks from the restaurant and was happy for the tips left by the guests. Many people felt unhappy. life. But I think she is happier, happier than most people. Because Hermann Hesse said, "Our lives will eventually be born for good, and happiness is to live for ourselves." 》Even though she started to live for herself on her 32nd birthday, she met boxing that she likes, she met Frankie who was willing to teach her, she is happy, she has her own dream, no matter what she pays She is willing to realize her dream at any price. She loves boxing passionately. She had fatherly love when she was a child. Now she has met Frankie and got another kind of love. I want to look back on McGee's days of being a boxer is happy. She worked hard to realize her dream. She has not given up. She has heard the voices of others shouting for her. She did her best in the ring. She regained the dignity that she had never obtained in that low-level life in the ring. Even if she didn't win the championship in the end, she was paraplegic in high position. She wanted to end her life and didn't want to live with such a low quality. Because she always knew what she wanted.
Hermann Hesse said, "In the face of death, people will not think about how well I live in this life, but whether I am satisfied with my life. "I think McGee will have regrets, but she is still satisfied. She said that before she met Frankie, she had never thought of someone shouting for her, and she had never thought that she would be in a magazine. What she got, she was not for these imaginary things, but it was the recognition that she worked hard for her dreams. I think she was comforted at the last moment. Frankie told McGee the meaning of the name given to her, "It means my darling, my blood."
Here Eddie said, boxing is an anti-natural sport, it is a sport that faces difficulties and cannot be avoided. The same is true in life. There are sufferings and we can only overcome them. If we escape, there will only be more difficulties and uneasy surroundings. To you. Just like McGee's mother, she doesn't want to face it, she just wants to escape, so she is uneasy, afraid of losing, is she happy? maybe. But when she faces death, I think there will be a lot of regrets.
A douyou said, "Life is inevitable to lose. This drama is teaching us how to fail." "Just like Eddie taught Danger, everyone will fail. After accepting this kind of thinking, they will not be afraid of failure. The trend of life is downhill. Taking this life path well may be what Hermann Hesse said. Satisfying the end of life.
Many people think that suicide is bad. For example, people who commit suicide and self-harm in "The Divine Comedy" will go to hell and become dry branches after they die. They will sway in the wind, they will be broken, and they will be very painful when they break. It is Dante who thinks suicide is an act against life. But I think if the quality of life is low and my own wishes are added, perhaps this ending is acceptable. It is not impulse, but human helplessness. I respect the people who make these decisions. I don't think they don't love themselves or cherish their lives. It's just that the continuation of life is meaningless to them. Whether it’s Will in "Me before you", McGee in "Million Dollar Baby", or Frankie’s decision, they all love life, true love, and the reason why they love End this life like this.
