Two close friends who have been in close contact since college, shared common ideals, and admired each other, separated due to various objective reasons, and met again after many years. It should have been full of surprises, but it turned out to be an embarrassment that both sides couldn't hide. Ambience. I can probably understand the little inferiority and unease in the heart of the male protagonist because he gave up on his own initiative to move forward towards a common ideal. It wasn't until he turned around and saw that his friend was chatting up with the young mm as always, that he felt that he had not changed, and that I was "mature".
In fact, it's like climbing a mountain. Some people scramble to the top of the mountain and see the magnificent scenery. Some people find a quiet path in the middle of the mountain, go around, and unexpectedly see the romantic mountain flowers. Decided to live here. Of course, because I originally came to climb the mountain, I would still sigh and sigh when I saw those who climbed to the top of the mountain. Of course, I will comfort myself in the end. The scenery here is also very good, and he will never see it.
Looking around, there are far more people staying on the mountainside than climbing to the top of the mountain. Probably because things are rare and expensive, the people on the top of the mountain are more showy. That's why when you ask a young man what his ideals are, nine times out of ten, he wants to climb to the "top of the mountain." But if you ask a middle-aged person, he will often say that the greatest achievement in my life is to have a good wife and good son, and that my family is very happy (the hero of this film will also say the same). But when he turned around, he went to educate his son, study hard, and be a personal master.
So why do we keep deceiving ourselves over and over again. Why not be told the truth about life at the outset, and let young people discover, after countless disappointments, losses, and disappointments, that life is not what it was supposed to be. If we knew from the beginning that the scenery on the top of the mountain is as beautiful as the scenery on the mountainside, then we would go to a lot less torment and struggle, and enjoy the beauty around us more calmly. In the movie, when the old friends meet, there will no longer be such embarrassment and anxiety. People are different from each other, and the male protagonist who is careful and considerate of his lover's feelings is more suitable for a peaceful family life. Many of us are destined to go back to our parents to some extent.
Parents, please stop saying stupid things like "don't let your kids lose at the starting line".
