Remembering the good times in the past, waiting for you is not enough, I want to catch up with you

A very good cry and a healing movie. Reminds me of my sophomore year of internship in 2013, when I interned in Xinwei, Huizhou, and Jian in Bao'an, Shenzhen. We often chatted on WeChat at that time. At that time, I made an appointment to go to Hong Kong to play. For this reason, I had to re-apply for a passport and endorsement at school in advance. Unfortunately, the college later stipulated that they were not allowed to leave the country and could not make the trip. But I still went to Shenzhen to play with her. She also asked for a tip. The three of us played Window of the World together, ate small hot pot, and sang K at night. Originally, I thought about going back and forth that day, but because it was too late, she helped me book a room in the guest house of the court where she practiced and stayed for one night. We chatted a lot that night, and didn't reluctant to part until late at night. Good night. We had breakfast at McDonald's the next day, and during that time I bought a Usopp toy because I was watching One Piece. Later, she pulled me to watch the Pen Xian 3 horror movie together. I pretended to be afraid to hold her hand tightly. That was the first time I held her hand tightly. It felt very soft and comfortable, but the movie was indeed a bit scary. , which caused me to always have some horror images in movies when I washed my clothes at night and dried them on the rooftop of the internship unit. We went to the bookstore together that afternoon, and she picked out the book "I'm Waiting for You in the Rain" and asked me to give her as a birthday present. After the internship ended and I returned to school, I asked her to borrow this book to read. Looking back now, I already had a good impression of Jian Jian at that time. That ignorant and green feeling is such a beautiful memory! It has been many years since I broke up with her, and I have been unable to let go and leave. Especially for the past week, it has been very painful and unhappy. I wondered if getting a dog would make me feel better, and my friends also advised me to get a dog, maybe it would cheer me up. Probably influenced by this book, Golden Retriever has always been my dog's first choice. Today, I drove nearly 80 kilometers back and forth with my roommate to the kennel in the suburbs to see the golden retriever puppies, but I haven't decided yet. When I came back, I remembered that I had always wanted to watch the remake of this book, so I watched the movie version of "I'm Waiting for You in the Rain". I can't remember the content of the book, but I probably remember a warm story with the owner of the racer from the perspective of a golden retriever. Since I can't remember the content of the book, I can't judge whether the film version is faithful to the original, but I think the more important thing is that the content of the film can touch people's hearts, and the film has done that. From the perspective of Jin Mao Enzo, the film tells about the life of life, old age, illness and death in company. Companionship, understanding, dreams, support, strength, persistence, family and other factors appear in the film, which makes people feel moved. After reading it, I am more determined to raise a golden retriever, and hope to accompany and grow together.

The Art of Racing in the Rain quotes

  • Denny: The car goes where the eyes go.

  • Enzo: Sometimes my life seems like it has been so long and so short at the same time. I feel as if I've lived for an eternity.

    Denny: [enters the house] Yo, Enz?

    Enzo: And yet it's as if no time has passed at all.

    Denny: [notices Enzo lying on the floor] Enzo?

    Enzo: I hear the worry in his voice.

    Denny: What happened pal? Oh, Enz.

    Enzo: I can smell the day on him. Motor oil and gasoline and roast chicken.

    Denny: Can you get up, bud?

    Enzo: I saw a documentary about Mongolia on TV once.

    Denny: [steps over Enzo and bends to rub hin] Oh... Okay.

    Enzo: In Mongolia, when a dog dies, he is buried high in the hills, so people cannot walk on his grave.

    Denny: [Rubbing him] I'm here buddy, I'm right here.

    Enzo: His master whispers into the dog's ears his wishes that in his next life the dog will return as a man. Not all dogs return as men they say. Only those who are ready.

    Denny: Let's get you up

    [picks Enzo up]

    Enzo: I am ready. I know death is not the end. Eve told me so. And I believe her. When I return to this world, I will practically be an adult the moment I am plucked from the womb with all the preparation I have done.

    Denny: [lays down on the sofa with Enzo] there he is.

    Enzo: I will walk among my fellow men, lick my lips with my small dexterous tongue and shake hands with a firm grasp.

    Denny: [rubbing his head] There's my Enzo.

    Enzo: And I will teach people all that I know. All that I have learned.

    Denny: [puts on tv] you okay now?

    Enzo: I'm fine Denny. I am.

    Denny: You've always been with me. You've always been my Enzo. First time I saw you, I knew we were supposed to be together. I love you boy.
