In Japan, Hirokazu Kore-eda's movie "Deeper Than the Sea", the mother said to her son: "No one is gone, no matter how much you think about it, it's useless. The important thing is to grasp the moment. Why don't men go back and cherish the moment? Only then can I know how to cherish it. In this case, I will not be happy every day. The so-called happiness, um... If you let go, you will get it. I, at this age, have not loved anyone deeper than the sea? Surely No. For ordinary people, it’s because they can’t live without it, but they have to be happy every day!”
For writers, I'm afraid something like this would be mocked by Hemingway. The movie "Travel's End" is generally full of stories. It tells the whole record of the reporter interviewing the writer. After many years, the writer is stuck in a creative bottleneck. It may be loneliness, it may be drug addiction, or it may be that the writer's existence and values are difficult to sustain and then commit suicide. At this time, looking back on the interview experience from the reporter's vision, the reporter has become a writer at this time, just as the writer said back then, the two have the same soul.
"When I think about this journey, I think about being in his car and I saw David (author David foster wallace) and I in the front seat, we were both so young. He wanted more than he already did. What he has, and what I want, is what he already has. We don't know where our lives are going, and it smells of chewing tobacco, soda, and cigarettes. Those conversations were the best I've ever had. Great conversation. David thinks books exist to wake people up from loneliness. If I could, I would say to David that those moments with him are not a relief from life, but a reminder of life What it should be like. So I had to tell him that realizing that made me feel less alone." (Rolling Stone's David Lipsky) "When I think of this trip, I see David and me in the front seat of his car , We are both so young. He wants something better than he has. I want precisely what he has aready. Neither of us knows where our lives are going to go. It smells like chewing tobacco, soda and smoke. And the conversation is the best one I ever had. David thought books existed to stop you from feeling lonely. If I could. I'd say to David that living those days with him, reminded me of what life is like, instead of being a relief from it. And I'd tell him it made me feel much less alone."
Wallace: "It's more likely that I'm too much on the American ideal, that if I get to X, Y, and Z, everything will be alright. I have a passage in my book that says: When a person jumps from a burning skyscraper Next time, it's not that they're no longer afraid of falling, it's just that the alternative is worse, which makes you think, what kind of situation is so bad that jumping into your death seems like a relief. I Don't know if you've had a similar experience, but it's worse than any physical damage, it's probably called a mental crisis, it feels like every motto in your life has become a fallacy, everything is empty, and you are nothing. Everything. It's all an illusion, you're so much better than others because you see through it all just a dream, and you're so much worse than others because you're damned unable to live normally. It's a horrible feeling, I think people are not It will change, I'm sure it's still buried deep in my body, it's probably just that I'm trying so hard not to be dragged away by it."
However, perhaps because of some similar emotions and no plot involved, I remembered the classic lines of life discussed in the love movie "One Day":
1. Emma: "I thought I'd make a difference, but no one knows I'm here."
2. Emma: "Your sympathy. I'm not lonely. I'm alone." Don't sympathize with me, I'm not alone, I'm just single.
3. Mama: "We always said you could do anything you wanted." Dex: "Fine. Why do you want me to do?" OK, what do you want me to do? Mama: "Something good." Some good things. Mama: "I know that you're going to be a fine man. Decent, loving, accomplished. that you're not very nice anymore." I know that you're going to be a fine man. Decent, loving, and loving. You are not as good as you used to be.
4. "She made you decent and in return you made her so happy." She made you decent and in return you made her so happy.
5.Dex: "It's just I need to speak to someone. Not someone. You." I want to talk to someone, not someone, just want to talk to you. Emma: "And if I can't talk to you, then what is the point of you? Of us?" If I can't talk to you, then what's the point of you? What's the point of us?
6. Emma: "Whatever happens tomorrow, we've had today." No matter what happens tomorrow, take care of today.
