If you could already foresee your future life, would you still choose the same path?
In the final chapter, Gawain has two endings.
The first is to run away,
After returning to his hometown, he was crowned king, abandoned his former love and embraced his new love.
After the war, young lives are gone before our eyes.
Finally, on another Christmas Eve, the door opened, as if a predetermined fate had come to the door.
He suddenly took off his belt, and his head fell off like this.
The second ending is open ended,
The play ends when the green knight runs his hand across his neck.
What I was thinking about was why Gawain gave up on the first ending.
Because I can't take off my belt for the rest of my life,
It is a lie that must be guarded, all day long,
Still feel that being a coward is not in line with his code of conduct.
What does the green knight stand for? The power of nature, the rotation of the seasons, the fear of the unknown.
When Gawain faced the green rider, he was also circled a few times.
The first time was when Green Rider washed his neck and stretched out for him to chop during the challenge.
The second time was when the green rider turned his head and was able to stand up, laughing and walking away.
The third time is to ask the green rider in a circle, is this the result? no more?
If this story is about man vs nature,
Then it should be the expression of the mighty power of nature and the irresistible death of human beings.
In the end, why did he still complete this game as agreed.
