Life can teach me

All the choices we make in life almost inevitably point to our childhood experiences.

So when you want to get to know Diane, the screenwriter moved her family out, and the character immediately became three-dimensional and deep. The viewer recalled in his mind, yes, I was treated as a joke by my family like this when I was a kid, sometimes even as air. But you still, like Diane, want to prove yourself to those who look down on yourself. What is the problem?

People who like BoJack Horseman are all because they see part of themselves from him. The most memorable episode was the tenth episode. BJ was taking drugs. His series of fantasies were illogical, except in the end he met the girl who had told him to go to Maine. The girl once showed him kindness, so in his fantasy, he lived a "happily after" life. This is very much like "Doctor House", they all face the same problem: I once had the possibility of a good life in the eyes of the world, but I messed it up.

Wake up from the dream, he understands that all remorse is of no avail, life is still going on, and you must move forward with a bad past. Accepting yourself and becoming yourself is a compulsory course for growth. We have learned a truth "People don't change" in countless American dramas. It won't be long before you will know that we can only live more and more like ourselves and slowly polish. The background color of life.

Diane is a lovable character in the play. Especially the Zoe & Zelda theory, which makes many movie viewers happily analyze themselves repeatedly from this theory. Unfortunately, most of us are mean and selfish Zoe. What interests me is that Diane marrying Mr. Peanut Butter (Zelda personality) is the choice of most people in this world. They are the epitome of many couples in real life. Because I want life to be easy, I chose the most relaxed partner, no need to struggle, no need to pull myself, nor the person who knows me best, just give me the simplest happiness. We ultimately choose not the one who knows us best and is closest to our soul pace. This also explains the very popular sentence two years ago: the person I love the most is no longer around.

Some people say that the screenwriter of this play is writing the script with the conscience of writing books, leaving too many golden sentences. And I especially like how BJ and Diane face their childhood reactions, just like everyone of us, panicked and collapsed across the board. To some extent, we will all be dismantled, whether it is your carefully disguised "success" or your careful stacking of strength. In the face of an unbearable childhood, you realize that all your problems after adulthood are derived from the childhood experience before the formation of the "self". After that, no matter how life teaches you, the essence of the "I" remains the same. There is no solution to this. untie.

One of my favorite lines in the first season was Mr. Peanut Butter said to Diane: "The key to being happy isn't a search for meaning." (Seeking the meaning of life is not the key to happiness.) I believe in this, so Most of the time, I deliberately avoid the topic of "the meaning of life". However, getting happiness is not the whole of life. I used to hear people say: After you are thirty years old, you will find that happiness is not that important. Happy is overrated. I actually believe in the latter sentence more.
