In front of life, everything is simple

This anti-cancer journal produced by a small and fresh typical summit can be said to be true to the point of being even and stable. The hard-working male protagonist is able to get cancer, fight cancer, and get rid of cancer as smoothly as possible. There was no hysteria in the mind, only a little anger when the psychological defense line was completely broken by fear; the intentional revealing of true feelings was not so exaggerated, just a hug, a joke, and a book. . . Dramatic life is unhealthy. Only real life can make people realize the beauty of life most thoroughly. In life, everything is very simple.

The male protagonist is such a bland man, even a little too bland -- he dare not drive because he has become the fifth biggest killer because of a car accident. He doesn't smoke, doesn't take drugs, and exercises regularly. A stable and beautiful life was forced to stir up waves, and even his biggest hobby was to bake pancakes for his inferior girlfriend without asking for anything in return. . .


What would you do if you were suddenly sentenced to have only a 50% chance of survival? Checking the savings in your account and trying to fulfill your years-long dream of traveling the world? Find the girl you have been in love with for a long time, show your sincerity, even if she has a name and a master, do you also have a master? Buy a drunk in the middle of the night, take a drug, and completely indulge yourself in a world that may be leaving?


Maybe maybe. . .


But for our male protagonist, this plain man, even after seeing the words 50% survival probability on the screen and less than 10% survival rate, he finally accepted it silently with tears. Maybe it's because he's too young, maybe it's because he's too careful, and he hasn't even smelled the breath of death, how can such a simple child be pushed to the edge of death? Even though he knew he had been chosen by Death, he didn't seem to know how to deal with it. He refused his mother's request to take care of him, and he even gave his girlfriend the right to leave, even if she did leave in the end. He chooses a person to face it silently, whether it is life or death, becoming 10% or 50%, and he chooses to remain indifferent. Going to work as usual, taking his bus as usual, waiting for his late girlfriend as usual, living his life as usual. This seemingly calm, in fact, he tells us that life and death are not so complicated, you can not grasp life, not you, but God.


He was relieved because he had no choice. In the face of death, we are the most helpless.
