Under the ravages of his paranoia, David's childhood was depressed and distorted and unbearable to look back. Under the domineering arrogance of his father, he would never be able to lift his head, straighten his spine, and completely destroy his self-confidence. Always murmured, panting, as if the whole soul was trembling and crawling under the feet of the tyrant. The scene in the bathtub still feels unbearable when I think about it after so many years.
His whole life would be ruined by this nightmare and childhood, if it weren't for music. Ironically, it happened to be music that caused him so much pain, or his father's paranoid pursuit of music and reputation.
He is withdrawn and introverted because of his father's cruel and ruthless education. He has a strange temperament. What can give him strength is his talent and perhaps an imposed but internalized passion for music. Fortunately, he met the love of a lifetime, accompanied him to encourage him, and never abandoned him, which made his incomplete spirit slowly stand up.
I couldn't help but think of a college classmate, a genius girl from a broken family, and a good daughter of a controlling mother. The shadow of her mother can be seen everywhere in her body. Even though she is away from home to study, she is always afraid of not meeting her mother's expectations and trembling. Sadly, she seems to have only learning in her heart, love seems out of reach (the lack of this aspect is entirely caused by her mother's education), not to mention the only courage like David to rebel against her father and take the first step towards independence. She has also studied piano and got an eighth certificate. It is a pity that she learned technology rather than art, so music did not enlighten her mind and open her heart.
The way we treat others is often the way our parents treat us (they lay the foundation for our behavioral patterns). Our anxiety is often a copy of childhood experience in a new environment, so childhood has an unimaginable meaning for our life. And influence. When a person can face his own growth process and make objective judgments and evaluations, he has achieved a certain degree of transcendence, that is, an important step towards conscious self-improvement.
What can help us in this transcendence is probably the perfection that countless people have been pursuing since ancient times: art and love. Fortunately, David has them all.
