not strong enough

At first, I saw a poster of a man sitting alone on a bus overlooking the distance and a few brief introductions to the plot, and I was deeply attracted. The protagonist has cut off all contact with the outside world and gave up everything to go to nature to live alone. It is a bit like he does not go to work all year round to retreat and practice. It must be something that touches the heart. Finally watched it. Fortunately, it's not as sad as I imagined, but it's sad and lonely enough. Although some people criticize this movie for being overly whitewashed, I still think it's a movie that really touches people's hearts. All people who are desperate in life feel that they can never get it anymore. Anyone who loves and is ready to sever everything should watch this movie.

When I was 20 years old, I always felt that the greatest sadness in my life was that when I was just graduating from a prestigious university, I suddenly encountered a force majeure event that resulted in an accidental death. When my life was about to officially start, I had not yet experienced a good life. Dying like this is the worst thing to do, but now there is a young American who just graduated from a famous university willing to give up everything to live a modern primitive life in nature, which is reminiscent of "Walden Pond" ", this book seems to have flashed on the bookshelf of the protagonist in the title.

Along the way, he not only declined the invitation of the hippie couple, but also rejected the courtship of a 16-year-old girl, which is somewhat similar to the plot of Odagiri in "The River". But he finally couldn't help writing in his diary that I was lonely. When I couldn't catch my prey and I was hungry, I would yell at the sky. Therefore, as a modern person, it is impossible to live alone in society. After all, people have to return to In the communication between people, although he denied that happiness does not depend on the relationship between people, it is undeniable that survival cannot be separated from the relationship between people. At the beginning of "Thousands of Thousands", the little girl was very excited when she first came to an unmanned town, and finally felt lonely. When I was young, I used to think that there is only one person in the world who must be very happy. I can eat whatever I want and play whatever I want, but then I think that there are no more people, so what's the point. Therefore, the happiness I understand is doing what you like with the person you like. The latter may be done alone, but the former still has to be tied down.

His approach is indeed too decisive, and even a little paranoid. It is actually a good intention for his parents to buy a car for him. It may be too late to change the people around him. It is the father) and why people are so evil to others and so on does make sense and is worth thinking about. But the fact is that after watching this movie, many people agree with the long sentence at the beginning of "Trainspotting" while secretly expecting to buy a cheap parallel iPhone. As long as you live in the current society, you can It is impossible to turn a blind eye to the temptation of material things, and no matter how noble the personal spiritual world is, it cannot be exchanged for abundant material security. Isn't "safety" and "stability" also measured by enough money? So he can start off by burning the dollars firmly and going to Las Vegas without saying anything at the bar, but in the end he still has to work and have to sneak on the train unless he can think like that While traveling all over the world, I dance a piece of dance every time I go to a place and then upload it to youtube. Finally, a rich man sees it and gets funding to continue traveling.

Therefore, a really smart person should pursue other things after ensuring sufficient material basis. Isn't there such a sentence: "The big one is hidden in the court, the middle one is hidden in the city, and the small one is hidden in the wild", the hero can persuade the old man to get out of the lonely house , and I looked at the mountains and small mountains together with myself, but in the end I couldn't get out of my heart, so I summed it up in one sentence: The hero's heart is not strong enough. As long as your heart is strong enough, no matter how turbulent the hustle and bustle of the world will not affect you, you don’t have to be alone and cut off all contact with the outside world. World-weary can’t solve any substantive problems.
