Most days don't affect people, and most decisions don't change much in your life. The road to life is long, but the key is only a few steps. Marriage is, and so is career choice. Career and marriage constitute the two most important themes of life, but because of their importance, we are cautious; because there are too many factors to worry about, we are at a loss.
One day I woke up and I knew it. --summer
Marriage and employment should be a two-way choice. "One day when I wake up, I'll know." I speak my heart, I care my heart, do I need more explanation?
The relationship with Tom is definitely not to play with feelings, and it is definitely not to let loose. In theory, everyone has the right to choose a marriage partner, but they may still face moral condemnation and the other party's resentment, etc., so as to cause various burdens, but when SUMMER faces TOM on the train, it is so natural, If the basis for breaking up is real feelings produced in real experience and real choices made, then why do you need to defend yourself with hoarse voices, and you need to be jealous?
Out of sincere concern for her ex-boyfriend, the brief heart-to-heart chat on the park bench was even more affectionate and restrained. When we are in love, we tend to lose our temper, and when we are in love, we dare not express our true feelings. But the real power is huge. When TOM was deeply infected and said "I sincerely hope you are happy", he also really broke free from the shackles of his soul and was reborn after Nirvana.
According to "Don't Lie to Me", three out of every ten sentences by adults are lies. When competing with Qiu at the same time, what broke the unbearable embarrassment between competitors? After the two sides told the truth, they laughed freely without restraint. Perhaps only truth can break through the "wall" between us.
SUMMER not only makes Tom understand that the true meaning of love and marriage is true temperament, but also the choice of career. TOM studied architecture, but worked in a card company. Although his performance was also outstanding, he finally chose to leave. Emotional blows used to put Tom down, but it wasn't the reason he left the card company, it was because "It's a lie, we lied. Why do people buy this stuff? It's not because they want to express their feelings, and people buy it. The card is because they can't or dare to express their feelings, we provide services to solve them. You know what, I think go to hell, tell the truth to Americans, at least let them express themselves." Under the influence of SUMMER, this kind of replacement The work of others expressing false feelings has made him intolerable, and he has always had his own career ideals.
TOM has always had a dream of green buildings in his heart, but just like us, under the severe employment situation, as long as you have a job, it is like grabbing a life-saving straw, and you dare not try it lightly, and dare not try to realize yourself. Career and career dreams. Tom was fortunate to meet SUMMER, so he resolutely walked out of the door of the card company. Although he was closed again and again in the process of applying for a job in a construction company, he no longer hesitated and became frustrated, but tirelessly consulted materials and conducted on-the-spot inspections. Getting more and more excited. Finally, after the heart-to-heart chat on the bench, he walked into the door of an extraordinary construction company again in high spirits. Because he has seen more and more clearly what his life goals are, what he really wants to do, and what he really should do.
TOM is by no means a loser. In the cycle of spring, summer, autumn and winter, from the 500th day to the first day, under the guidance of SUMMER, he is ready to meet the next round of life tests. I believe that he will be able to find his true self and realize his true self.
Perhaps most of us have spent our entire lives failing to establish a world outlook, outlook on life, and outlook on love that we firmly believe in, at least I have no confidence in it myself. But SUMMER's simple truth made me deeply feel her understanding of life, a kind of transparency that I can't match.
(Personally, this film reflects the thinking about self and life through love stories and the clue of choosing a career that may be overlooked.)
Off-topic 1: About the multiple meanings of summer and autumn in my understanding
1. Hope. After summer and autumn, there is no way out.
2. Cycle. Hopefully the first 500 days of life will help us live the second 500 days better.
3. Summer is exciting and blind, fiery and scorching; and autumn, is it maturity and harvest? Nirvana Journey
Off-topic 2: "Destined" and "Coincidence", Accidental and
Inevitable I believe that life is full of chance. For example, we all hope to find a suitable spouse, which is inevitable; but the one we encounter is by chance. Because in fact, it is not the only one that suits you. (So, let's also think about it, there is no grass in the world.)
Near the end of the film, he says, "Tom finally found out that miracles don't exist. There's no such thing as fate, he knows, he's sure now." Then he turned around and put it into action. After all, only hard work can make a wish come true. Every ending contains contingency and inevitability.
