Lonely planet.

In order to keep the following thoughts in mind, I suppose I have to write something down right after finishing watching the movie.

1. The main points of the movie maybe lie in the searching of truth, instead of the results, the answers, or the real experience of the heroin in VEGA.

2. There are four kinds of person in the world, men, women, women doctors, and the husband of the women doctors. And fortunately, these four kinds of person all appeared in this movie. The pursuit of truth itself may be a barrier of a woman professor and her lover. But, in real life, the barrier may be the conventional thought that husband should be stronger than his spouse.

3. Keep to the point. At first, I do not like the heroin, she is crazy and too idealist. But as the story carries on, I feel sympathy (how to use this word?).

4. about faith. This is a big issue and before I go to university, I seldom bother to think about it. But as I grow up, ridiculous, as I know more about the outside world, I began to think and to confuse. Is there an all-mighty Father ? If I believe in the evolution, how can I find something to rescue me, to forgive all the mistakes I made, and to comfort me that whatever I do, I am his child, I can restart and be as clean as before. How can I make myself to pretend to believe that I am a good person? Eh….confusing. Ha-ha. Maybe I have to read some masterpieces by Einstein or Hocking.

5. I believe that far far away from earth, there must be some intellectual beings, or so much space may be wasted, or our earth and us human beings may be too lonely.

6. one thing I am curious, about the records and the pictures, are they real? Or made by computers? I mean the records of president, space ships..
