You want to choose a more advanced way of life. Perhaps you are willing to live like this, a life that most people can't understand. You think you have seen the essence of life, and in the end everyone will get the same result by different routes. die alone. You may also avoid being alone. You want to realize all the love and hate, and you want to integrate into life and into everyone. But in any case, life is still like this. Lonely and warm. This is why "God laughs when humans think about it". People have no way to control the overall situation, no way to hold their minds tightly. Thoughts are easy to escape.
Therefore, there is no more advanced way at all. This is life, and you cannot abandon one end and go to the extreme. You cannot abandon loneliness, you will lose yourself. You can't abandon the world, you will lose too much beauty.
Then in compromise, we passed this life without being extremely lonely or extremely warm.
I saw a film critic saying that the movie "is ironic about the protagonist Ryan's philosophy of life." Then I came to the conclusion "Now, let us love each other tightly." As I thought before, God is really laughing. By forgetting, he eliminates the complicated, inconsistent or fragile things in life, so as to benefit a simplistic, consistent, undivided and fragile capitalized life. Kundera mentioned "kitsch" as early as in the novel. With its "absolute identification with life", kitsch ignores all the contradictions and fragility in life. Kitsch can only win by erecting a "screen covering death". No matter how long you look forward to, like, and nostalgic for warmth, you can't avoid being alone. Being alone is not shameful. If you try to cover loneliness and avoid loneliness, it doesn't seem like you are full of love. It can only show that you are stuck in a superficial thought about your love for yourself.
The point is to pass or enter the illusion, meaning and speech that obscures life, facing life, facing the nakedness and apparent dazzling of life.
