If it weren't for "My Neighbor Totoro" in the cinema, I would have missed this cartoon.
The last time I saw it was 8 years ago, when I was still in school, I didn't remember much. It should be because there is no sense of substitution. At that time, I did not have the innocence of Xiaoyue and Xiaomei, nor did I know the hard work of my parents.
Totoro walks past his eyes without seeing it, just like the adults in this movie, they just can't see Totoro.
But this time, I saw that it was the parents who were actually substituted.
In the movie, her mother was hospitalized, and sleeping with her mother became the biggest wish of 4-year-old Xiaomei. In the dark, the appearance of chinchillas is to make up for this maternal love. In the days when they couldn't see their mother, the children met the giant chinchilla, which has a soft belly, gentle eyes, and super powers that will appear immediately when encountering difficulties.
Children's emotions are single and profound, only attached to the temperature of mother and father. In order to be close to my parents, I can run around all day holding the corn given to my mother without fear of wind, rain and beasts.
Unexpectedly, when I was 30 years old, I could cry watching "My Neighbor Totoro". Ever since we had a child, my dad and I have had a very low tear point, and we each cried while watching "Dream Hunting Travel Notes". I began to be afraid of death, disease, and fear that my baby would not enjoy enough of mother's arms.
What impresses me the most is the father in "My Neighbor Totoro". He can be called "the most perfect father" with the father in "Life is Beautiful". They all kept their child's innocence. In the movie, Dad can't see Totoro, but he believes that what the children say is true, Totoro exists.
Four clips were the most impressive because I probably wouldn't do it.
When they first moved into the old house, their father was working hard to move, and the two children were playing around. They saw black "coal briquettes" and told their father in horror that they had found a monster. Dad did not have an "adult disease" and told them to "don't." Trouble", but said with wide eyes, "It must be a dust elf!"
At night, the old house was shaking and the old house was shaking. The children were a little scared. Dad suddenly laughed and said, "The more scared you are, the louder you have to laugh, and the monsters will be driven away."
When Xiaomei said that she saw "My Neighbor Totoro", Dad never saw it, but he said to Xiaomei, "Dad believes that you must have seen Chinchilla, it is the owner of the forest."
After looking for chinchillas to no avail, he will take the children to bow to the largest camphor tree in the forest and say, "Thank you for taking care of my children, please continue to take care of them in the future."
After becoming a parent, I understand how difficult it is to take into account the child's emotions and be willing to enter the child's innocuous world at all times, in addition to pots and pans, eating, drinking and lhasa.
If a mother talks to a doll, a tree, or a flower, not to coax the child to do something, but to truly believe that they are all elves full of vitality, I think this is an adult who is qualified to approach Chinchilla.
Even if you can't see it, I believe that growth will not fade away.
Looking at the naughty Xiaomei, I often think of Xiao Kaidi. Recently, she has started to talk a lot, playing roles and telling her own stories at any time.
She played with the house, cooked and fed the dolls. I said, what if the puppy doesn't want to eat? She looked at the puppy for a while and said, "I don't care if you don't eat it...I won't protect you...Go and play!"
On Sunday night, my dad gave me a day off to watch "My Neighbor Totoro", and I said to her, "You are at home with dad, and mom is going to watch your favorite movie, okay?" She said, "Okay, mom. Is your best friend here?"
Recently, we have reached a tacit agreement to let everyone do what they like in a life dominated by their own children.
For example, when the father watches the baby, let the mother go to the movies; when the mother watches the baby, let the father play basketball; when the aunt watches the baby, the mother works.
Baby asked me, "Mom, why do you work?" Instead of saying, "To make money to buy you toys," I said, "Because mom loves work, and work makes mom happy."
To be honest, I've found more and more fun and strength in this job that I've been doing for 5 years. I also hope that children can learn this view of work. It is not only for making money, but not for helplessness, but for active output and growth.
Finally, I recommend everyone to go to the cinema to see "My Neighbor Totoro", which has been a classic for 30 years. When you walk out of the cinema, you will find that the sky is lit up, and even the dust is dancing.
