The light in despair

Up in the air. In the clouds. I like this statement very much.

The dead are alone, so are the living. That face of vicissitudes of life turned the inner waves into peace and tranquility.

I looked at the word "comedy", but found no trace of comedy. The smiling face has no meaning of lightness and joy.

Jim finished his life in a few seconds: marrying that woman, house, car, child, one after another, and then the child reads, grows up, finds a job, gets married, has a child, and then "I" retires with gray hair and teeth. Loose. What is the meaning of such a life? Since everyone is going to the same place in the end and all are dead, why should I endure so much while I am alive?
Quite desperate. The unqualified "lobbyist" was actually panicked in his heart, but the "co-pilot" was a bright light in despair.
Since there is no way to avoid it, at least you still have a "co-pilot" who is willing to accompany you through this experience.

I really appreciate the ending of the story, George Clooney's back, slightly gray hair and wrinkled face.
When he unexpectedly appeared at the door of Alex's house, although there was no happy ending, you know, he had at least the next inner goal.

Many people call the other half soul mate, soul mate.
Once in life, knowing what you want most is the most important thing.
In this way, when you are desperately walking towards death, you know that you have a co-pilot who will accompany you, whether it is sufferer or enjoy.

    A person's life may be very happy, but it is still not as happy as getting along with the one you love. Even if you can tolerate the loneliness that is uncomfortable in the trough, it is difficult to resist the loneliness that there is nowhere to speak when you are happy.

Up in the Air quotes

  • Ryan Bingham: [after being informed by Ryan that his been let go] Your resume says you minored in French Culinary Arts. Most students work the frier at KFC. You bussed tables at Il Picatorre to support yourself. Then you got out of college and started working here. How much did they pay you to give up on your dreams?

    Bob: Twenty seven thousand a year.

    Ryan Bingham: [sitting next to Natalie] At what point were you going to stop and go back to what made you happy?

    Bob: that's a good question.

  • Natalie Keener: [sitting across from Ryan and Alex in Miami] I thought I'd be engaged by now. I thought by 23, I'd be married, maybe have a kid, corner office by day, entertaining at night. I was supposed to be driving a Grand Cherokee by now.

    Alex Goran: Well, life can underwhelm you that way.

    Natalie Keener: Where did you think you'd be by err...?

    Alex Goran: It doesn't work that way. At a certain point, you stop with the dead lines. It can be a little counter productive.

    Natalie Keener: I don't want to say anything that is anti-feminist. I really appreciate everything that your generation did for me.

    Alex Goran: It was our pleasure.

    Ryan Bingham: Well done.

    Natalie Keener: Sometimes it feels like, no matter how much success I have, it's not gonna matter until I find the right guy. I could have made it work, he really fit the bill, you know. White collar, 6'1, college grad, loves dogs, likes funny movies, brown hair, kind eyes, works in finance but is outdoorsy. I always imagined he'd have a single syllable name like Matt or John or Dave. In a perfect world, he drives a 4 runner and the only thing he loves more than me is his golden lab. And a nice smile. What about you?

    Alex Goran: You know, honestly by the time you're 34, all the physical requirements just go out the window. You secretly pray that he'll be taller than you, not an asshole would be nice just someone who enjoys my company, comes from a good family. You don't think about that when you're younger. Someone who wants kids, likes kids. Healthy enough to play with his kids. Please let him earn more money than I do, you might not understand that now but believe me, you will one day otherwise that's a recipe for disaster. And hopefully, some hair on his head. I mean, that's not even a deal breaker these days. A nice smile. Yea, a nice smile just might do it.

    Natalie Keener: Wow. That was depressing.
