Everyone has seen that 900 months of your 75 years (average life expectancy in China is 74 years old) into a 30x30 grid, how many grids will you take up when you do something. No matter how many squares you have left, there will always be a sense of time crunch, because 900 is not a big number for someone above junior high school.
Time, the scale created by human beings, rigidly measures everything in the world. You don't know when it starts or when it ends. It's like a straight line (other spacetimes are other straight lines, maybe they also intersect) and we are a line segment parallel to this line - a line segment that looks like a point from a distance and can't even be seen , the shortness of life and the meaning of its existence are embarrassing - if our existence is an accident, then we should be glad or curse that life is too short.
He also lamented the unfairness of fate, doubted whether the world was hell, and thought that the meaning of life is to pursue happiness. . .
But I now know that all beings are equal before time; that many public libraries are instant heaven; that the meaning of life is not happiness, but achievement (Never mind your happiness; do your duty-Kant). Yet this is a cruel fact for most people; they can't see the numbers dwindling over their heads, they live in chaos and peace of mind; they chase happiness and don't know what it is.
The world measures a person's achievement by wealth, and measures a person's meaning by the far-reaching degree of its influence. Everyone dies twice; once in physical absence, and once when his name is last mentioned. Therefore, the ancients pursued a long-lasting reputation, and the wicked would rather be stinky for thousands of years.
If you can't get rid of the physical limit, life is so short, you can choose Leonardo da Vinci, take a 15-minute break every four hours of work, and increase the density of life to extend its length relatively - he is equivalent to living 300 years old. You can also choose to have a child, write a book, and plant a tree -- a life that's already meaningful for most people.
Without time, it seems that everything in human beings has no meaning, but what is the meaning of time?
Without human beings, time itself no longer exists.
Animals and plants follow the laws of nature, the survival of the fittest does not mourn because of the proximity of death, their meaning is to exist and reproduce. . . The existence of lower and higher space-time dimensions is also not bound by time. In this way, is time like what the Party member said in "1984": there is no time before we exist, we will exist forever (we don't exist anymore). time no longer exists).
People are mortal, no matter whether they choose actively or passively (except for the 14,000-year-old man in "This Man From Earth"), even in the future when the body can live forever, it will still die, whether it is body or soul . Just like the man in the film who still had 105 years of savings chose to commit suicide, maybe he had seen enough of the world, or maybe he was desperate for human beings.
That being the case, we can finally go back and talk about how this film should be made with depth.
