How can you tell if your current life isn't repeating itself?

Let me talk about one of the most touching points that I felt after watching this movie, which may be different from what the director himself wanted to express.

That is: how do you judge that your current life is not meaningless repetition?

This was an idea that came to me while watching the second story of this movie. At first, I just thought it might be interesting to live in this repetitive scene.

You see, what a beautiful view. There are beautiful undulating mountain lines in the distance, cactus clusters with beautiful shapes nearby, and clean roads with flowers and plants swaying in the wind. It is really a resort for tourism and relaxation, isn't it? Coupled with sufficient and uninterrupted material supplies, cola, beer, bread, puffed food, it can be said that there is everything, and yes, there are emergency medicines. These dazzling materials are also refreshed on time. It can be said that they are inexhaustible and inexhaustible, and there is no advantage to look back!

Friends, isn't this heaven?

And it happens to be a family of three, my God, why don't you cherish the life in this paradise? ! ! ! (The misfortunes that happened are not listed first, how are the misfortunes in life not the same? Some are even more difficult).

So far, I am still very envious of the life of the protagonists in it, and I feel grief and anger for their ignorance and cherishment. What a waste of time and light! Think about us who are constantly running around for supplies in real life and are not free!

But at this moment, I suddenly became enlightened: Isn't the current life just a repetition?

It's just that the range of "theories" that can be active is larger, but isn't it just running around every day?

It's just that the "theory" of edible foods is wider, but isn't that the same as what you eat every day?

It's just that the "theory" of the people who can be seen is larger, but isn't it the same few people who go back and forth?

what differences are there? Isn't it also a restricted person? The difference is that you are limited by yourself, and you are not aware of it.

What's more, I thought of my sister-in-law, a standard full-time wife, who cleans up the room at home every day. After her husband comes back, he arranges meals and sends the children to and from school and cram schools. More often, I stay at home and play with my mobile phone in vain. Occasionally I struggled, inviting a few friends to hang out in a teahouse outside to chat about other people's lives, but after a few days, life was still stagnant.

Terrible, really terrifying, isn't it like the two brothers in the movie who let them go completely? (Not in a derogatory sense, I love my sister-in-law a lot, but I sometimes feel that her life is not right).

So what's the difference when I look at myself? Just confused by the daily busy work, thinking that you are doing valuable and meaningful things every day? Not yet a void! A nothingness that is bewitched by the appearance in front of you!

Forget it, life may be a nothingness, and there is no way to find an exit. Day after day, it keeps repeating.

Maybe all we can do is to struggle with ourselves and maintain a healthy body when others give up?

Finally, motherfucker, this film tells us that regular life and fitness are really important!
