's long-term love affair with an old woman is the result of their shared fascination with death.
They always meet at funerals, a story that predates a similar episode in Fight Club by thirty years.
why? Because our lives are arranged by others, it is not the life we want. The most attractive part of such a life should be the end. One day we will die, end, and break free from the shackles of others.
Every child is forced to obey the oppression of others, and then learn to oppress others. Every child will become a slave or a tyrant in this world, but he will never be himself. What do you think is good in such a life?
The only thing that matters is death, so hard and absolute, it reminds us of the futility of life. Shakya began to seek the Tao in the face of death, and this child can only breathe at the funeral, that is his spiritual sustenance, which gives him the strength to fight against the real world.
It was also at the funeral that he met an old woman as brilliant as a sunflower. She went to a concentration camp as a child and experienced the most miserable life, so she will not be satisfied with a numb life; when she was young, she participated in rallies, marches, and confronted the police, because the world she dreamed of was not like this; now that she is old, she can only use My own small methods insist on that transparent heart, such as opening bird cages in pet stores and releasing them, such as stealing a dying young tree and sending it back to the forest.
This child saw the last splendid flower in the dead world, as if the world can really be warm and proud, can really do some silly things happily, can shout, and can roll on the grass.
The old woman became the mother of his soul, taught him to love his life without judgment, and gave him the happiness of every flower in nature. His love is pure and brilliant, I am watered by you, and I will bloom for you.
The greatness of the old woman lies in her lack of greed. Although she cherishes this boy, although she is reluctant to give up, she still commits suicide by taking medicine on her 80th birthday, exchanging her own death for the boy's life, and exchanging her own end for a new beginning for the boy.
Death, horror? No. This pair of lovers has surpassed the boundaries of life and death and can no longer be separated.
