Want Jiangshan, or beauty?

A few years ago, I saw the recommendation of this "Destiny Planning Bureau" from Mr. Li Xinpin's book, but unfortunately it was mistakenly called "Time Planning Bureau", and it was nothing. Not long ago, when its name came up again, my gut told me that I should do a search and give it a try.


I went for the fateful theme of "destiny", but I was inspired by Mark Damon's love.

A young and promising political star, David, loses his candidacy. He happens to meet the heroine Alice in the men's toilet. The two fall in love at first sight and have a great conversation.


Does the beauty of love become more and more valuable when you can't think about it?

When they were reunited three months later, David told Alice that the morning after that speech, he woke up missing only one person, and that was her, Alice! Is there anything more exciting than hearing a confession from a loved one? Alice's eyes were full of autumn water and peach blossoms were on her face, and she joked with this man who had only met twice. One coquettishly threw the high-decibel BlackBerry phone into the hot coffee, and the other accommodatingly said that you were like a child. This is how people who are destined are met, and when they first meet, they feel that they have known each other for a long time. Will you never miss a marriage by leaving your phone number?


It's a pity, unfortunately, a group of mysterious people in black suits, black hats, and sunglasses popped up at this time, trying their best to stop David from picking up girls, and using the hand of fate to beat the mandarin ducks. David, who has been crazy about love, can only let these "angels" in charge of people's fate burn Alice's number. The two of them crossed lines, reunited, and separated. David continued to play the Game of Thrones to fight monsters and upgrade step by step according to the arrangement of fate.


One of the most moving things about David is his dedication to love. In order to make the unlikely reunion happen again, he insisted on taking the same seat on the same bus for three years. Then, a miracle happened, and the people in the Destiny Planning Bureau went crazy again. The trick this time was: identify and tell David that he was the one who was chosen to be president, and that with Alice they would both lose their stride and become mediocre. It's really worrying, one is the throne that rules the world, and the other is a beautiful woman who is always thinking about it. Which one would you choose? Which one can you choose? It's a pity that David didn't have a choice. He could not be the throne himself, but the one he loved had to be afflicted by injuries and bid farewell to the world stage. How could he bear it?


As a responsible man, he did something he didn't take responsibility for. He threw Alice in the hospital alone, and walked away silently... For you, to make you happy, to hurt you, isn't my heart scarred?

Here, what makes people sigh is not the arrangement that people can't fight against fate, but the good luck to make people. Why can only choose one of the two, why can't you want both the country and the beauty? David used the calmness on the surface and the laughs in his speech to cover up the huge loss in his heart. Eleven months later, the marriage revelation of the famous ballerina Alice appeared in the newspapers before David.

Don't miss it anymore, if you miss it, it's really a lifetime.

The climax of the whole play has come. Harry in the planning bureau, who has been watching from the sidelines, helps David to formulate a route, shuttle through any door, and find Alice. The music rushes and the plot drops to its ups and downs. What will be the end? It didn't take long to guess. What Harry had to say to the couple who ended up in love is what the show is about.


"Most people follow the path of life we ​​have designed and are afraid to explore other paths, but occasionally there are such people who destroy the obstacles we set up. Such people know that free will is a gift, and only by fighting for it, will know how to use it, I think this is the real plan of the President, perhaps one day, not our plan, but you. "


from then on I accompany you to wander around

a few words back to read it three times , tasted it three times. Looking back at myself, I have experienced a little bit of awakening to free will over the years. I have seen some people, read some books, and watched a few movies before I slowly explored it. In fact, it's not that many people don't want to fight, they just don't know they can fight. We are influenced by the collective subconscious, influenced by the accumulated fate of our ancestors, and are always controlled by our own subconscious. Free will is really not something that can be done. The fate bug in the movie is still broken by a man who can be the president. Can you and I play well?

Then let us learn a thing or two from the words that are full of God's will!

First, get to know yourself. You are not your thoughts, you are not your emotions, you are not your identity, you are not your work, you are not your body. This is a cliché in the field of body and mind, but talking about it often can also slowly revive one's self-awareness. From a person in charge of his own to a bystander, he can see clearly some situations that were not clear before.

Second, sort out your thoughts. We are strangers to ourselves. There are tens of thousands of thoughts in our minds in one second, but we can capture very few. Let’s record it with a pen. If we write it down, it will not run away, and it will allow us to observe and think.

Again, pay attention to what you say and do. Everyday words seem to be ordinary, but they have a very strong self-suggestion ability. Pay attention to it. The words you say most often are more positive or more negative.

Next, make a list of the things that your heart desires the most. Humans have endless desires, and they have different manifestations at different stages. What do you want most when you are in your 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s? Records may not be available immediately, but they will distance you from them and reconsider. Is it influenced by worldly standards, or is it really a desire for no reason in your heart?

Finally, let go. To let go is not to ignore it, but to face it calmly, accept the unchangeable, focus on the things that can be changed, and use all the effort. Of course, as the poem says, we also need to distinguish the wisdom that can be changed and cannot be changed.

Frozen three feet is not a day's cold, from passively accepting fate to actively accepting fate, just like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, it requires timing, process, and a little luck.

The above is the spiritual enlightenment revealed to me by this sci-fi blockbuster with love as the lead.

The Adjustment Bureau quotes

  • Harry Mitchell: [talks to David] You're going to look for her, aren't you? You won't find her. They'll make sure of it. Even if they weren't trying to stop you, there are nine million people in this city. You'll never find her. Forget about her. Move on with your life.

  • David Norris: What ever happened to Free Will?

    Thompson: We actually tried Free Will before. After taking you from hunting and gathering to the height of the Roman Empire we stepped back to see how you'd do on your own. You gave us the Dark Ages for five centuries... until finally we decided we should come back in. The Chairman thought maybe we just needed to do a better job of teaching you how to ride a bike before taking the training wheels off again. So we gave you the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, the Scientific Revolution. For six hundred years we taught you to control your impulses with reason, then in 1910 we stepped back. Within fifty years, you'd brought us World War I, the Depression, Fascism, the Holocaust and capped it off by bringing the entire planet to the brink of destruction in the Cuban Missile Crisis. At that point a decision was taken to step back in again before you did something that even we couldn't fix. You don't have free will, David. You have the appearance of free will.
