No need to express like life

One day off, I solemnly pose and take care of my mood, open this "The Station Agent" (The Station Agent), ready to embark on a spiritual journey and prepare to receive a spiritual impact.
As the journey progressed, I thought it was a dream story of "aspiration not in height". It wasn't until I remembered the guitar sound at the end of the film that I smiled unwillingly: Oh, I was wrong.
Unlike "Eavesdropping Storm" and other films that "make inner waves like a storm", "Mind Station" does not have a plot of ups and downs, or even a theme for the audience to summarize. After watching it, people will be very quiet, indifferent, and indifferent. It's like when we lie on the bedside at night, recalling a full day of life, we find that those trivial matters leave almost no trace in our hearts-but they have indeed happened and will affect our future lives in a subtle way. It's just that they happened too naturally, as if they had never happened.
"Mind Station" was also translated as "Next Station, Happiness". I think that director Thomas McCarthy’s interpretation of happiness (perhaps he didn’t want to interpret something deliberately, what he did is just presenting) should be living with heart and experiencing the mixed flavors in the ordinary, just like a poet said, from "Cabbage It tastes like chicken and fish.” Just like Fenba and friends are walking together on the long railway line, those back and forth footsteps will not leave a mark on the track. That section is the same as yours. The memory of Zai will stay in everyone's heart for a lifetime.
At this point, I feel that I am doing a superfluous thing, just like you are doing something while telling yourself what you are doing.
I can't extricate myself like a grass, and I don't need to express myself like a life.

Originally, I wanted to pay tribute to the lead actor Peter Dinklage and his Fenba. Their confirmation of their identity reminds me of a person named Nick with a congenital disability.
When Nick goes to the beach to swim, he will coat his body with ketchup and yell "Shark! Shark!" on the beach. It is conceivable that when he sees a group of "flesh and bloody" bodies without limbs yelling, How unaware people will be shocked. This is not a joke of self-masturbation or self-deprecating, but from one side it shows that Nick has completely accepted himself-only when he regards the mutilated body as a natural state from the heart, will such a joke be made. .
Later, I realized that the kind of tribute itself is a kind of pride and insult to the other party-treating them as people who are indistinguishable from us is the greatest respect for them.
"No matter how humble or ordinary life is, since it comes to this world, it must have its meaning. God will not create you for no reason. He will definitely make the most appropriate arrangements for you."
