Totoro's 30th anniversary re-screening is also the first official release in mainland China. I took this opportunity to go to the theater to watch "My Neighbor Totoro" again.

This is the fourth time I have watched "My Neighbor Totoro". The first time I was very young, I had no impression of the movie channel. I just remember the picture of Xiaoyue carrying Xiaomei and Chinchilla holding an umbrella under the platform when it was raining. I don't know why I recalled it with a hint of sadness; the second time I was in junior high school, it couldn't be regarded as a real movie viewing. At that time, the next class was doing self-study in the evening. I stood by the window and looked at it between classes. I remember very clearly the picture. My Neighbor Totoro took Xiaoyue Xiaomei to fly across the wilderness, and the beauty lingered for a long time; In high school, to complement Mr. Miyazaki's films, the classic My Neighbor Totoro is bound to be indispensable. That was the first time I felt the unprecedented innocence. From childhood to adulthood, this is the only movie I have seen that does not contain a trace of evil in it. There is only beautiful innocence and moving in the whole film; Revisiting it, I unexpectedly found that the people inside are extraordinarily gentle, people and people, people and nature are so prosperous and harmonious.

In fact, I think this movie is not made for children, but a gift for adults. Just like Saint-Exupéry said his "The Little Prince" was dedicated to grown-ups. The purpose is to bring us back to our original selves.
Every adult grows up from a child, but how many adults still remember that even children don’t remember being a “child” now (news during this time, a 12-year-old boy killed his mother in anger because of a dispute with his mother .Because I was released under age, I really felt scared.)

Time flies, the world changes quickly, and we become faster. In the process of growing up, we all lost a lot and became no longer trusting and brave.
Today's young people are talking about Buddhist life and mourning culture. If you get a little emotional blow, you say you don't love anymore, because a little economic pressure means that the world is money-oriented and materialistic. Men and women began to no longer love each other, began to measure their marriage with money, and began to feel the temperature of each other purely with the flesh.
But it's also a vicious circle.

The elders are teaching us to work hard to earn money or we will not be able to marry a wife. When we were young, we disapproved and believed in vigorous love. But the reality is cruel. No matter what age you are in, food and clothing are a problem. Without bread and milk, there is no home. In fact, this is understandable. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory Physiology and safety are the cornerstones of our civilization. Without certain material, we cannot gain a foothold in a civilized society.
But the difference is that many of us have changed our hearts for material things, no longer sincere and sincere, and started doing whatever we can for material things. The balance between man and nature is destroyed, we are no longer grateful, and only want to use each other. Human beings greedily destroy nature, completely forgetting the mother earth that nurtured us; the seeds of hatred are planted between countries and nations; people use each other to gain more benefits.

I believe that the vast majority of children were brave warriors when they were young, complaining about all kinds of injustices in life, and yearning for all kinds of beauty in life.
Life is not so beautiful, but when we were young, we had bright eyes and could discover beauty. But as we grow up, our hearts gradually become dirty, and even our eyes are blinded. Just like the dust elves and chinchillas in "My Neighbor Totoro" only children can see, adults can't see the beauty anymore.
The questions that the little prince thinks in "The Little Prince" are very stupid and naive in the eyes of adults. They no longer think about it. They are busy running around for chai, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
When we leave the ivory tower of the school, we will also start worrying about our livelihood, and we will become more and more rounded by life. We will no longer sit on the side of the road and think about what people are thinking about in a hurry on the road. Chatting with friends from the outside world and the inhabitants of the center of the earth, you will no longer care about the feelings of the big trees and grass.

In fact, it is not this society that has changed us, it is we who have blinded our own eyes. Hayao Miyazaki wants us to regain our innocence, and wants us to go back to the summer when we hunted cicadas and picked watermelon worms. Thinking of our kindness, our dreams, and our lofty ambitions at that time.
Don't forget to look up at the moon while chasing sixpence.
So don't lose your innocence and kindness, the world is beautiful and worthy of your love.

Finally, I will send Mr. Lu Xun's writing in "Hot Wind", "May Chinese young people get rid of the air-conditioning, just walk up, and don't have to listen to the words of those who give up on themselves. Do things that can do things, and speak out. If there is heat, there is light. Just like a firefly, it can shine a little in the dark, without waiting for the torch. If there is no torch after this, I will be the only light."
