In the days to come, I hope we can still sit together, open a bottle of red wine, and pass the time bored, even if you are no longer.
Finished the movie at one o'clock in the morning. A movie from ten years ago, very old, but always makes me feel very close. From the very beginning of the dog's departure, the youngest daughter said "our life has changed", and everything is no longer what it used to be. In this family, you can see the child's personality, the incomprehension among family members, the mother's forbearance, the father's silent dedication, you can see the thoughts and pains of each of them. For children, this is growth and adaptation; for parents, it means tolerance and tolerance. The father often blamed the grandfather for not loving him like other families, putting his pictures on the bedside, not teaching him about wine tasting, and scolding him, until the grandfather passed away on the wedding day of the grandson, the father opened his wallet and found him He never even left his grandfather's sight. When grandpa lay peacefully on the sofa in the living room in neat white clothes, maybe it was too late to find out.
The father said that it was a pity that he went to the "Valley of Death" where he was a child again today, but he still couldn't jump over it. Without deliberately provocative, without suffering from illness, after dinner on his father's birthday, he could not wait to try the gift from his youngest daughter. His mother laughed at him for being too impatient, but his father did not deny it, and revealed his last secret with a smile.
When the mother finally sniffed the breath of her father's past, she smiled. The father asked the eldest son why he did not make changes since he was not satisfied. He lit a cigarette for the younger daughter, "although it shouldn't be like this", taught the second son how to play the air guitar, and held his wife's hand in front of the hospital bed. He has been a taxi driver for a lifetime. The driver, I met all kinds of people, but the happiest thing was watching the children grow up.
When the mother finally wrapped the father's car in a protective cover, all the happy and sad stories that happened in the car were gone. Nothing lasts forever, the kid who used to play football in the room is gone, and the height by the door stays forever at the moment when the kids have their own lives. When one, two or three children move out, the family will gradually become inactive, and this is the ultimate fate of every family. The mother began to worry, but ultimately to no avail.
Will there be a day when everyone forgets the evening when a family of five sat around tasting red wine? That might be a sign that a family is dying.
You don't have to know how much I love you, but I hope to be by your side like this for a short time.
In this world, only love cannot be let down.
