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.

    I want to take this piece to warm it up in winter, but it seems that this cup of "tea" is a bit cold, and the more I look at it, the more it feels cold.

    Inspirational film for your lungs. . . How come so many people feel good. What problems are solved by self-imposed obsession, there is so much persuasiveness. Plus the inexplicable soundtrack. As a poor man in the celestial dynasty, there is still a long way to go to understand how this kind of education film of upper middle class sublimates life.

    Natalie Keener: Hearing the words "you've been let go" is never easy change is always scary but consider the following: anybody who ever built an empire, or changed the world, sat where you are now. And it's because they sat there that they were able to do it.

    Ned: Yeah, but how does it work?

    Natalie Keener: You're going to take the packet in front of you review it, all the answers you're looking for are inside. Start filling out the necessary information and before you know it and before you know it you'll be on your way to new opportunities. I need you to go back to your desk and putting together your things. As a favor to me I'd appreciate it if you don't spread the news just yet panic doesn't help anyone

    Ned: I understand

    Natalie Keener: [to the staff] give it up for Ned

    Natalie Keener: [concluding her presentation] You can start the morning in Boston stop in Dallas over lunch and finish the day in San Francisco all for the price of a T-1 line.
