about the meaning of existence
Jaquan 2022-02-07 14:59:43
The movie that I accidentally opened made me watch the movie and think for two hours. The reason I was so fascinated was, admittedly, that I wanted to find out from their conversations. I believe that many people have also thought about the meaning of life. The result of the movie is regrettable. Professor Bai made Uncle Hei begin to question his beliefs based on his understanding of the nature of things. So much so that I once again doubted the meaning of my own existence. I think such a movie, if it really falls into it, will make people despair of life. A person who doesn't want to visit the same person for his dying father should be a person who is desperate about the world. Indeed, questions like the meaning of life have no answer. But for ordinary people like us. I think it is very real to quote Lao Tzu's words to explain the meaning of life: "The great way returns to the root, the root is quiet, and the quiet life returns to life."

Black: The sun don't shine up the same dog's ass every day, you understand what I'm saying?
White: If what you're saying is that I'm simply having a bad day, that's ridiculous.
Black: I ain't saying you're having a bad day, Professor, I'm saying you're having a bad life.
