"Red Balloon's Journey" - everyone has their own red balloon

At the end of "Citizen Kane", the handwriting of ROSEBUD can still be vaguely seen on the burned sled. Now, this ROSEBUD is transformed into a red balloon in the air, floating in the sky above Little Simon, but you can't catch it, and even at a certain moment, you think you are holding it in your own hands. Be careful, but it floats into the air again.

Don Nuo said in "The Best Time", "The so-called best time refers to a sense of happiness that will never return, not because it is so beautiful that we are nostalgic, but the other way around, precisely because of it. Eternity is lost, so we can only call it with nostalgia, and for this reason it becomes incomparably beautiful."

In "The Journey of the Red Balloon", Susan's red balloon is the family that has been broken together, but is right Little Simon in front of him turned a blind eye. Only after quarreling with Mark, the tenant who couldn't leave, and her daughter's refusal to move back to Paris, did Susan and her son Simon start a few more chats:

What are you doing at school?
As usual.
What classes did you take?
math.
math?
And spelling.
What have you learned?
Multiplication, and...
addition?
No, we have already learned this.
Subtraction?
No, we have already learned this. In writing class, we learned all capital letters.
Which?
all.
real?

Susan had reason to be absent-minded, because she not only had to worry about her homework, but also about her husband and daughter who wouldn't go home, and the unpaid tenants who couldn't evict her.

Little Simon also had reasons to be unhappy. His mother didn't care about him at all, and he still wanted to play with his sister. When visiting the museum, little Simon was distracted, and he suddenly saw the red balloons floating high in the sky.

In fact, everyone has their own red balloon. If you don't believe me, look up at the sky above you. When you look up, you lose a second of the present.
