It was supposed to be just an episode short enough to leave no trace to be forgotten, like a swimmer rising to the surface to take a breath and quickly sinking into the mud of a messy life. Maybe it was because nothing happened that the man kept and invited the young man on board. ——Maybe there is something else the man wants to happen!
What is going to happen? Show off, control; he hasn't shown enough! For his full belly. He hasn't had enough control yet! For his captain's general ability. His high sense of superiority wants to prove himself right by doing everything, but his wife who is opposite day and night doesn't seem to buy it, which further stimulates his need to prove himself.
So the young man was invited on board, and ended up playing the role of a "son". The young man is not useless. As a hiker, he also has high self-esteem, but sailing seems to be a foreign thing to him. When he is on the water, he is controlled, suppressed, ridiculed and despised everywhere. The young man is even more indignant when a man uses his years of experience and his shortcomings to devalue the young man.
On the boat, two men staged such a game and fighting method: the man instructed the young man to steer, reel, pull the fiber, etc., to prove his high sailing skills; In the end, whether it was the flying knife game, the bamboo stick game, or the sailing ship, it seemed that the man was slightly superior, with a piercing mockery in his eyes and tone; and the knife, which was a symbol of young people's self-esteem, was also taken away by the man who was deliberate. So the young man who "can't swim" was pushed into the water and "killed" by the man, using the most serious and irreversible consequences to fight at the highest level, proving the man's naivety, incompetence and failure, to shake his most central sense of self-identity .
In fact, men and young people are as naive at heart and have fragile self-esteem. Men are just a few years older and learn more skills. The inner frivolity or composure is not directly related to how much skill they have.
Women can't stand men's pretense either. In fact, men and young people are the same. They hate each other and protect themselves. A woman just hates this kind of aggressive relationship, but if she also attacks each other because of this, it means that she has become a member of mutual hate and attack. . It seems that such superfluous causes in life cannot be eliminated, so I would rather not intervene and let those who want to attack attack enough and get hurt by their own knives.
