A long time ago, I was playing at home one night, watching Simpson's big movie alone at night.
Because of the naive, funny and irresponsible of the old ghost, Homer, the whole family had to move to a deserted and icy land. When Homer thought things were calming down, Maggie suddenly left with the child.
Before leaving, she left a video tape. She told Homer that she was going back to help the friends who had lost their homes by him. She must always ignore all the ridiculous things Homer did to maintain their marriage, but why would she do it? She looked at the camera blankly.
The picture changed to the lively wedding scene of the two previous people, and suddenly close to you sounded:
Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Everytime you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
I don't really understand the cuteness of this old man, because I hate and fear irresponsible, unreasonable behavior, especially such a man. It is difficult for them to make me laugh. When I was a child, I often cried with sadness when I watched Mr. Bean. People who are so funny that they are so poor are really hard to laugh.
But love does not have to be sublimated to make sense. It may be just a habit, a moment, a conditioned reflex stored in the cerebral cortex. At that moment, I heard Carpenter’s song and I burst into tears, for Maggie, and the strange man she loved.
I am a very selfish person. I have been grateful, appreciated, and respected, but I have never loved. Reason makes me feel very safe, want to use logic and cause and effect to explain everything, but also very longing for unreasonable love. I call it romance.
If one thing is so innocent and stupid, it is romance, and romance is stupid.
