Most of the time, all people want is calm

Story value is a universal feature of human experience that can turn from positive to negative, or from negative to positive, from one moment to the next. From the big talk, life/death (positive/negative) is such a common feature. Throughout the ages, most human beings have advocated vigorous vitality and avoided terrible death. In "Classic Car", the two are reversed, showing people another view of life.
Old Walter once thought that he was the person who knew life and death best because he practiced it. He also knew very well that what the nerdy priest knew was only the classics, and what he knew was only the outline in the thick fog. In the face of Walt's rebuttal, the priest's orientation to Walt was to "know more about death than life." , the contempt in the words is so outrageous for an elder. This elder, even if he is stubborn, even if he is not understood by any group, even if he has the appearance of "childishness". The gap between the young and the old cannot be kept up with how many books on the philosophy of life have been read. So from that moment on, the discussion about life and death, the pastor lost. Although I used to think that the pastor was stubborn and persistent, in the end, I realized that he was just a childish stubbornness.
Walt knew what it was like to die, so his troubles for most of his life were the inability to get out of the fear of death. This is because he understands the greatness of life. However, after bathing in the holy water of life, he became detached, and he was no longer afraid of death, because he finally realized how to make death greater than life.
When he chooses to use his few remaining lives in exchange for the peace of valuable people, I think he is more like a cowboy, because a cowboy not only has to be bloody, but also knows how to balance. (This is foreign language)
In fact, when this modern old cowboy gave his life, the audience will believe that he is calm. Because at the moment when the gun rang, if the "life" he cultivated was like a young "son", and the "death" he dedicated was of course more like a kind "mother"!
Therefore, I believe that there is no absolute thing. People are often confused by common experience, and sometimes they have to wait for the desired result to appear before giving up. This is actually no different from the stubbornness of the little priest and the stubbornness of the old cowboy.
Therefore, when encountering difficulties, thinking of these may really be calm.

    The old cowboy's starring curtain call, the hero's twilight feeling and the guilt on his back are the same [unforgivable], and the friendship of the teenager is similar to the [perfect world]. In addition to the issues of life and death and precepts and deeds, it also involves issues of generational separation and race, and the ending shows a sense of salvation. | Finger pistols | Three essential tools for killing people during home travel: forceps, strong tape and WD40.

    He, smoking, drinking, his wife left first, his sons are not filial, but fortunately there is a dog that will never leave. He survived the cold winter in North Korea, survived the scorching heat in Vietnam, and still "made enemies" in his old age. However, few people know his loneliness and understand his suffering. In the end, he met again with the tribe that had crossed together like a predestined relationship, fulfilled his fate and completed the redemption.
