The world of love

I have always liked the kind of person who has the strength to break free from the ordinary life, that is, not feel guilty and indebted to the people in the current life path, not afraid of being rejected by the future, and chase even seemingly unrealistic dreams.

The day before yesterday, an old man came over with his cell phone to show me a photo of his son and niece. This niece was the son of an old man from Yang who was studying in Australia, looking for a church. She said that she "suddenly wanted to find a church to marry." The son just took this opportunity to improve the food, maybe they had a good time and talked about the idea of ​​immigration. The old man's son criticized this "unreliable sister" a little bit on the voice WeChat father. The old man showed me the voice, and I heard it, and it was fine. He asked how it was, and I said that life is too short, just try whatever you want.

I saw this pair of lovers during the Chinese New Year. In fact, her niece was not a few years younger than me, so she simply called me my sister. The boy is from Tianjin and is called "Mr. Jin" because of his surname Jin. Generally speaking, this Mr. Jin is the heart of this niece who can be called a "leftover girl". Greasy crooked. Mr. Jin never "performed" Tianjin dialect in front of everyone at his niece's request, but I think it's probably because Tianjin dialect always makes this girl giggle and laugh. The girl is always happy, so everything is easy to do.

She first ran from Chengdu to Beijing, like a piece of baking soda into the warm water, bubbly. Regardless of how much effort it takes to buy a house in Beijing, the house in Beijing has not yet been seen, and Australia is claiming to be "immigrating and settling".

I wish she didn't just think about it. Because I really want to see another unwilling soul glittering in my life.

"The End of the World" is actually a movie I watched the day before yesterday, except that the heroine of the movie is much bolder - a woman in Buffalo, Wisconsin, who is not reconciled to the ordinary life, with her beautiful daughter (Natalie. Portman), resolutely left her second husband, who was good to her, and went to California to pursue a different life.

Her daughter, however, misses her Wisconsin-born stepfather, the gentle stepfather who could chat all night. She didn't want to be a Hollywood star because of her good looks, as her mother had hoped. She even secretly delivered adoption letters and received dozens of responses but never opened them. And her mother learned from her grandfather the life philosophy of "if you only have a copper plate, polish your shoes first". With dreams of living in Beverly Hills, crammed into a crappy California apartment, working as a teacher in a third-rate school, hooking up with a muscular guy who calls himself a dentist on a Malibu beach, having a hopeful date, and seeing firsthand how his life has improved. Dreams are nothing but muscle men's pastime. The daughter's words and deeds full of hope to return from the date were used in the audition. The childish face showed the "unspeakable secret" of an adult, which made the audition officer stunned. On the other hand, the mother, who peeked at her daughter's audition, was lost.

Reality kept responding to this woman's efforts to advance her dream, just not in the way she expected. Her daughter's mother's efforts to leave "ruined her life" all but come true when she gets an offer from a college in the East, but doesn't get an expected full scholarship. She thought that the tuition fee in addition to the half scholarship would tie her to her mother's side, but her mother sold her Mercedes-Benz classic car to send her daughter away from her.

This is not a movie about crusades against vanity and tells you that "everything is the truth". I regard this "Fang Xin Tian Ya" as an eulogy for those with "unreliable" dreams. With few coins in her pocket, she drove her daughter to Los Angeles with her daughter in the only valuable classic car. She didn't have any pity for her ex-husbands, and she had no one to comfort her mentally. She hooked up with a dentist on the beach with the intention of improving her life, and she was able to pull herself together after a failure, telling her daughter to "smile, smile, smile", she showed a woman who had been divorced twice with a daughter alone, in our opinion The most impossible way to live.
