How can you tell if a person is old?
For me, I feel that I am getting old. It is not that my memory is getting worse, my energy is getting weaker, and my food is more and more light. These are all slow and gradual processes. It is the decline of human functions, but it is not It's the same as getting old. Haruki Murakami said that people do not grow old slowly, but in an instant. When I realized that I was no longer, and probably never was, the darling of fate, I thought I might have passed that point in time without knowing it.
Words like fate's darling may not be appropriate, I mean a lot of things don't actually happen to ordinary people. I mentioned a little girl in "Once Upon a Time in the Library", because the composition mentioned the wind blowing through the strawberry field, and her mother called her "wonderful" and forced her to change it. We were probably the last time in two weeks. In the composition class, she left an assignment at home to write. The little girl still had red eyes when she was sent to class by her mother for the second time and refused to erase the sentence and rewrite it, but she finally gave in. No one appeared to comfort her, everyone silently avoided mentioning this matter, and then the matter passed.
Ordinary people will encounter neuropathy all the time at work, but neuropathy will not give you more insight into life except for more serious road rage. When ordinary people grow old, they may only be able to make up for most of the regrets in their lives when they are dying, of course, in hallucinations. When I watched the cartoon "Flying House" for the first time, I felt that the old man hung up the moment he released the balloon. How splendid the picture of the balloon was, and how bleak the reality was. Later, all the stories were Happened in a flash of lightning, HAPPY? Maybe.
Harriet is certainly not an ordinary person, so she has a strong presence even when she is alone. Of course, Ann, who is cowardly in the movie, is not an ordinary person like you and me, because she met Harriet. Of course, the newspaper boss who is about to endure is not an ordinary boss, after all, he has received an objective inheritance. I finally made a moving movie with positive energy, but when I came to me, I crossed it all out and said it was all fake.
That's why I feel like I'm getting old, too old to be reluctant or afraid to believe. Will the pie fall from the sky? Maybe, but it certainly won't hit ordinary people. Will I have the opportunity to write an obituary for myself when I get old, is it possible to make up for the regrets in my life? Probably not, but I don't think there's anything wrong with that - I meant to say sorry. Yes, it is not sad, because in the end it is nothing but death, happy or unhappy, nothing but experience.
After my mother passed away, because of emotional confusion and staying in Shanghai, I read the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's vows and copied a few passages of the Sangha Sutra. Later, I started to read the Bible again. For three thousand years in Jerusalem, I can't wait to talk about yogis. I also looked it up (and couldn’t understand it), and the things I gradually believed in my heart had nothing to do with these. I think that after death, people may really live in the memory of future generations, and once the world is reborn again. No one remembers, and the person is dead. That's why people used to love cultivating family trees so much. At the end of "The Last Word", it is very touching to say that everyone should hold the hope that "we will not be forgotten".
However, whether it will be forgotten or not is not that important. Poppy said that anyone's life is meaningless, and humans are cud dogs. This is still the case with great people, and ordinary people may be more relieved. There is nothing to complain about. It is nothing more than an experience. Whether it is remembered or not, what does it matter?
