This is a plain story, a trivial little story, but it contains a simple and profound truth
. It is because we all understand the truth, and it is profound because we have not been doing well enough.
That is: take good care of our parents , The older they get, the more they need to love and take care of them . An elderly couple went

to Tokyo to visit their children. The children showed different attitudes . Let the parents go to the tourist area for vacation. The noisy late-night hustle and bustle makes the old man unable to sleep peacefully . Only the second son's wife is very considerate to the old man and gives the old man the warmest care, while her husband has long been missing in the war. The youngest son simply received the parents, He also joked with his colleagues: Only when parents die can they know how to care for them . The old woman died of a sudden illness after returning home. The family came and went in a hurry. We have no intention of criticizing or criticizing anything. We can also understand the changes in the family brought about by Japan's post-war industrialization process, the busyness of work, parents who have no time to take care of them, and the extravagant care for the elderly and taking care of us. This is not the case now, doing Are there such children? We understand some truths, but we have not been doing well enough. If possible, accompany them more. They only want a safe and healthy family. They need very little. If possible, we must act and do more. better do better

    Is the one-star evaluation of Japanese movies on domestic software really patriotic? The essence is just that they are unable to contribute to the country and can only curse the Internet clowns who want to show their patriotism to follow the trend on the software of the Chinese people?

Tokyo Story quotes

  • Kyoko: [after the rest of the family had left] I think they should have stayed a bit longer.

    Noriko: But they're busy.

    Kyoko: They're selfish. Demanding things and leaving like this.

    Noriko: They have their own affairs.

    Kyoko: But you have yours too. They're selfish.

    Noriko: But Kyoko...

    Kyoko: Wanting her clothes right after her death. I felt so sorry for poor mother. Even strangers would have been more considerate!

    Noriko: But look Kyoko. At your age I thought so too. But children do drift away from their parents. A woman has her own life, apart from her parents, when she becomes Shige's age. She meant no harm I'm sure. They have to look after their own lives.

    Kyoko: I wonder: I won't ever be like that. Then what's the point of family?

    Noriko: But children become like that, gradually.

    Kyoko: Then... you, too?

    Noriko: I may become like that in spite of myself.

    Kyoko: Isn't life disappointing?

    Noriko: Yes, it is.
