How am I going to die?

I really wanted to know how I died, whether I was hit by a car, stabbed to death, choked on drinking water, or died of cancer. My ideal way to die is to die of old age. Take off your shoes and socks and go to bed at night. The next day, he was found dead in his bed, with a peaceful face and no pain at all. I thought this was the best way to die, much like the "passing away" of a master monk.

Great movie, go see it for yourself. Here are some unrelated things.

The
female writer in the film "Publisher" couldn't figure out how the protagonist would die, and was unable to submit the manuscript for a long time. So the publisher sent an assistant writer to live in the writer's home and stay by her side to help him find inspiration. I don't know if there is such a situation in China. The first thing I know is that there is such a thing abroad. It feels very fresh.

This semester is coming to an end soon, and I feel like I haven't learned much in Huang Qiusheng's class. He has his own problems and his own. It feels that he has not fully adapted to the identity of a university teacher, and the class seems to be assigned tasks by the leader. The deeper reason is that his understanding of foreign publishing is only superficial. Although I have gone abroad many times, it is only a visit after all. In addition, there is less information in this area in the mainland, so the content of the class is mainly based on second-hand information. Occasionally some foreign experience, can make a deep impression.

So, I was thinking: Would it be more interesting if the master came?

"Instrument"
really likes the part where the male protagonist plays the guitar and sings, it's really cool. "Having a dream is amazing." Easier said than done. Because he knew he was dying, he could let go and do what he liked. But most people always say to themselves: there is still time in the future. "When I'm old, I'm going to travel around the world." But the problem is, if you're sure you'll live to old age, maybe you'll die before you get old. Even if you really live to old age, can you guarantee that you have this physical and financial strength?

In fact, I also really want to learn a musical instrument, such as the piano. Play the kind of tune that is very affectionate and listen to your loved one. But...hey~ If you can really know when you will die, I believe that most of them will live more efficiently. Everyone has a day of over, life is a novel, and there will always be an end.
