Humans are animals with emotions, but
how persistent should emotions be?
How persistent should beliefs be?
How persistent should the mind be?
Some people joked that this is a foreign film that expresses Chinese Taoism, but now I am beginning to believe it.
Let go, let go, let go.
Many times, we can't let go.
Diligently pursuing the tree of life, only to die from the sap of the tree of life;
persistently conducting medical research, after all, cannot save the life of the person he loves the most.
In the end, when the Death Star shines in the most gorgeous light of its life, what can't let go?
Still can't let go?

Because you can't let go, you will eventually achieve a state of letting go, right?
Do you want to let go?

Feelings, do you want it?
