To the beauty and darkness of this world

Some people say that the world is full of darkness and the distortion of human nature. People work hard day after day, but they may not be rewarded.
It is also said that the world is beautiful, and we have all had or are experiencing happiness, even if sometimes happiness is fleeting.
If God gave you another chance to choose, would you choose to give up your vision and those organs of perception?

2013/9/19 I once again pulled out this classic ghost movie and enjoyed it, and found that I seem to understand something better.

It is not easy for everyone to live in this world. The little boy in the film who jumped off the building because he couldn't find the exam paper seemed to let me see the old self. Maybe I didn’t own anything when I was young, so my studies and grades became the only things to measure my ability. If I failed the test once, I felt like the sky was falling (now I think I was really funny at that time), and even the childhood that seemed to have no troubles was inevitable. There is this kind of pain like ink dots. Later, I slowly discovered that I like boys, so I found that I couldn't talk more and more with those straight boyfriends, family, friends, everything was not as it used to be. The next time my parents discovered my secret, I will never forget the desperate look in my father's eyes. My father thought it was a disease. He took me to see a psychiatrist and told me that the gay world was dark and I could only be a mouse all my life. The family relationship began to gradually change and rot. I have never dared to tell him once again that I like boys.


When I was ignorant, I kept thinking that I must not let the people around me hate me, and I must make everyone happy. There are constant things in this world.



It was only later that I realized that it was impossible. The relatives around us will gradually drift away from us, and there will always be people who hate us, even if there is nothing wrong with you. This world is changing every second, and every second someone dies with regret and pain. Just like Li Xinjie's Jiawen, in the end she could only watch the terrifying explosion happen with her own eyes. Even if she went crazy and told everyone around, no one believed her. Another example is Sun Wukong, who eventually could not escape being crushed by Wuzhi Mountain. Some things are just so sad.

But

I've never given up on life because of it. The movie said: People who commit suicide are miserable, and they have to repeat the scene of their own death every day. until their wishes come true. Although the world is leaving every day, life is also born every day. We are cheap for someone, and there is a person who loves you, but the person you don’t love is being cheap for you. Although true love between the same sex is hard to find, but fortunately encounters happen every day, and someone is always willing to wait for you. We will grow up one day.


Therefore, I have never been disappointed with life, and I just have to live my life well, love boldly, and see those beautiful things, even if they are fleeting.


I've never been disappointed because I've seen the most beautiful things in the world
