Find Neverland

A lot of people translate Neverland to "Neverland", but I like to use the first translation I saw: Neverland. A place that never exists in the real material world exists in people's beliefs about it. There live children who never grow up, pirates, Indians, goblins, all childhood dreams, guarding people's innocence.

Watching Finding Neverland today, I was very moved, but I didn't cry. Maybe I really have a switch in my heart. Only when I watch quietly, can I express my inner emotions without any scruples. When I share with others, the switch is turned off, and I am no longer so careless . That experience of finding inspiration, finding success and identity, finding imagination, is what I am constantly experiencing now. To be honest, sometimes I really feel—though it seems so unreasonable, so absurd—that I am alone, as if there is only a glass door separated from the crowd, but I can’t open it with all my strength. Just so isolated, searching and searching hard in his own heart, tortured to the point of being neither a ghost nor a ghost, like a ghost who does not know where to end. Just like now, the three people in the next room are concentrating on watching a movie, sometimes mixed with discussions, jokes, and E-play, but here I am alone facing a computer without any expression, writing some incomprehensible words. Of course, it can be said that I chose to isolate myself, because I don't want to watch such a disgusting movie ("The Corpse Played the Boundary", just look at the disgusting methods used in PJ and LOTR, you can imagine that this thing has How disgusting. I can barely accept those pictures in LOTR, but for this kind of pure disgusting movie, for the sake of my appetite, it is better not to watch it.), on other occasions also because I can't get a sense of identity with those people , so just stand there. However, this state also has its benefits, I can calm down and think about a lot of my stuff, like building my own Neverland.

I watched "Howl's Moving Castle" and "Spring in the Cattle Class" earlier today, and I was also very moved. Howl's Moving Castle is a little less in-depth than Miyazaki's other works, but it's still very distinctive and endearing. Cute, this is probably the most common word I use to describe Hayao Miyazaki's cartoons. It always gives people a warm feeling. Sophie, who changed from a young girl to an old woman in an instant, was able to rely on the love in her heart—to everyone, not just Hal, and relying on various lucky coincidences to end a confused and pure nonsense war. , got a real lover, and a group of friends who live together (although it's weird except for the little guy in Maluk). In fact, the film is simple, but it also makes people feel the importance of "love". Some people may say that these words of mine are just superficial opinions, but for me, such opinions are indeed my current opinions, and there is no question of whether they are superficial or not.

This is the second time I've watched "Spring in the Cattle Class", and I'm still moved to the point of sacrificing a lot of tissues. Whenever I hear that kind of angelic singing, whenever I see their earnest, childish faces when they sing, I think I can't help but be moved. It is true that the real Neverland cannot be found in the world, but if we maintain our love for all things, we will find our own in the sound of music, in painting, in conversation... arousing our imagination, our love and innocence Neverland.

Neverland, never an island, Pitter Pan flying in the night sky of London, a child who never grows up, a fairy tale that never grows old. It exists whenever we think about it. Because it exists in our beliefs, in our beliefs that it exists. No matter how painful and difficult it is, as long as there is imagination, the world will be less scary and difficult.
