No one is an island. But in real life, we always have to become an island, leaping over thousands of mountains and rivers to find some moments that we have never had before, pretending to have them. I want to go to all the small islands in the world. In all the small island stories, the characters become the extension of the closed space, the loneliness rises into the air, spreads and infects the whole island, magnifies the feelings, slows down the life, and changes the life. long.
This is probably the reason why Mrs. Dreyer went to the island of Corfu. The beautiful name is to find a new life, but it was because of the unavoidable water and electricity bills, and the heavy burden of her husband's death overwhelmed her, so she could only choose It's the easiest way to escape. However, several children also have the commonality of children: worry.
The eldest son, Corey, is a half-baked writer. He can't do his own real estate sales well, nor can he do the writing he loves; the second son, Leslie, is a violent gun lover, otherwise he has no interest, impulsive and simple; Daughter Margo is dull and ordinary, unable to get the love of her sweetheart and unable to do her job; youngest son Larry loves nature and can always bring strange animals to the family for parties, but he is indifferent to human beings, and the family backbone is moral. Mrs. Rael, you can only use wine instead of tea to fight against these heavy burdens, and until the end can't bear it, can you say 'who can help me' that no one responds? In the whirlpool of life, she thought that she could be redeemed by escaping, but in fact, the shadow of life has always been behind her, and as soon as it gets dark, she will immediately show its original shape and try to devour you.
There is a saying that 'life always has its ups and downs', even though there are the most crying moments, there are still many happy moments that accumulate to support the motivation. The Greeks I met on the road, and the help they have been giving since then, and the moment Cory's appendicitis happened, the family guarding outside the door, the friends who held hands tightly, and the smile when waking up, all of which are in ordinary life. You and I are assembled from fragments.
In fact, we are not always trying to escape the confusion in front of us, thinking that we will get better by going to a new place, of course not, we know not, we may even regret choosing this path, looking back at everything we used to be familiar with , how good it feels, but looking forward, it can go on. Just at certain moments, I still want to go to the island, escape the world, talk to my emotions, and talk to the people around me. Put it all down and really do what you want to do.
