Cry uncontrollably. Part of the hope for the future diminished, part of the encounter with reality, part of the regret of the past. Even if you are not a wife or a mother, you can imagine the powerlessness of life.
The most touching places:
1. Jim died in a car accident, and Olive broke down and cried.
Just today, because the company's project colleagues are collecting information on the topic of exes/derailment, a search on Zhihu is full of blood and tears, and most of them are It's the details of the bed that lead to the reveal. After the music, we all felt that our life was too dull.
I'm not qualified to talk about marriage, nor can I understand how long-term disgust with each other can shake morality. Apart from the small talk and flirtation during the detention, there is not much interaction between Olive and Jim, which makes it impossible to see the level of their affection. Instead, it is the son's disgust for Jim that is amplified over and over again. Olive wants to abandon Mr. Hao Hao and fly away with this unruly old smoker. Some people may think that she just needs to escape from the exhausting daily life. I think it is love, otherwise there will be such a tragic sound of broken dreams. Even more than love, the last hope of redemption, the whole stake in being able to live. Unfortunately, the bet was lost.
If you imagine what kind of person Jim is and why he can enter the heart of such a tough person as Olive, the note "save us from shotguns & father's suicides" is enough to illustrate the tenderness from the rough guy. Henry is really kind, consistent with his words and deeds. He believes that human nature is inherently good, and things always look on the bright side, but for people with negative energy, this chicken soup physique is the most deadly. I don't need you to tell me how beautiful life is. We should let go of our grievances and move forward. Smile more and look good. I want you to understand me. I want you to be as bad as I am, and then be willing to listen to my vent about the shadows of my past that hold me back and get muddy together. Henry was not the same kind after all, and even company was full of distance.
2. Olive visited Chris and his new family, and eventually broke out in a big fight with his son in the kitchen
. Someone posted the original text of this paragraph in the discussion area.
When Olive said "You don't know what it is to live with someone till death do you part" I burst into tears like I opened the valve. Really don't put love and death together, no one can stand it.
Children are terrible creatures who will always blame their parents for their flaws, and know their parents well enough to know how to hit them. Olive alone and meticulously took care of the incapacitated Henry for four years (four years, right?), talking to him a lot more frequently than before, and in the end, he was blamed by his own son for his mistakes many years ago. People who know hypocrisy are said to be hypocrites, and anyone who changes them will get angry. What Olive is facing, loneliness, death that may come at any time, and deeper loneliness. Because Henry had spoiled her, she might not even realize how accustomed she was to his seemingly non-existent presence. The bed you have been sleeping in is changed, the house you have been living in is empty, and the person who has always loved you is gone. You don't have a stupid guy by your side who doesn't even think about the consequences.
3. "It baffles me, this world. I don't want to leave it yet."
Olive finally gave up suicide and said this while lying on the strange old man. Everyone who has been fucked by life and survived well, who doesn't think so. After all, what we miss is not life itself, but the rest of the world we face. The paradox is that we can only control life, but we can't handle other parts well. Whether to limit the sense of security (or directly suppress it), or prepare for the possibility of a warm one in ten blows from reality.
Sometimes we don't take the initiative to choose, and we don't have so much spare courage. The fast-paced fragmentation is now forced. Job after job, job after job, just like Olive taking care of Henry. People really need narcissism to live, and they need to be sure that one thing is that no one can do it well, so only me can do it. For example, Olive doesn't trust the nurses in any hospital, and even asking them to put the phone in Henry's ear can't do it. This belief can fight depression more than anything you eat.
I admire Olive from the bottom of my heart. She has lived a life that I should never dare to live. She is true and sharp to herself and others. A double-headed thorn pierces herself and everything around her. People who are sensitive and see through too much are like this. You can tell where the fake breath is by smelling twice with your nose. They feel that creating a happy atmosphere is the most meaningless thing to waste life. But most people just think it's self-righteous and difficult to get along with. Find someone to reason with.
A lot of heroines are so mean to the jokes that they like it very much. I have time to brush it again and update the record.
