I used to prefer to put flowers at home. A bunch of vivid colors can make the whole living room come alive. On sunny weekends, sitting on the sofa quietly in a daze, just looking at the flowers can make me feel better. It’s a huge profit. "business". However, after the winter, the shelf life of flowers is shorter, and the flowers that have just been bought will start to be discouraged within two or three days after they are inserted, and the cost of flower arrangements will increase. In order to rejuvenate my family, I purchased two pots of hydroponic green dill online. The journey is long, the boats are tired, and when the green dill is delivered to me, the leaves are withered and yellow, and the branches and stems are not upright. With the mentality of a dead horse being a living horse doctor, I trimmed the branches and leaves, changed the water, poured a little preservative, and kept them wherever I wanted. Unexpectedly, in just a week, the green dill sprouted again, growing new leaves little by little, and living a good life as if taking credit.
In the process of watching "Spiritual Journey", I kept thinking of the green radish at home, a plant that seems to be withering, and can live with a little tap water. The world-weary old soul who dazzled Mother Teresa, and Copernicus, had seen too much through her sophisticated eyes. She knows all the rules of the world and understands all the sufferings in the world. She is so powerful, but she has become a nihilist. For thousands of years, she would rather wander around the "place of birth" all day long, rather than land on the earth for a walk.
I once thought that No. 22 was the soul avatar of "The Pianist at Sea", and he couldn't bear the boundless desires of the flowery world. Of course, there is another very important reason why No. 22 refused to be born. For so many years, she has been unable to find a life hobby that makes a small flame in her heart, and she is the most noble scientist, philosopher, writer, and sports champion on earth. She was persevering and enticing, but she was still unmoved, very much like the five in the "985 Waste Introduction Project Team" who held a group for warmth. My mother just wanted to lie down, and no one would stop me. However, does No. 22 really want to get a small flame and an Earth pass? I don't think so. She is arrogant on the surface, but her heart has always been full of anxiety and low self-esteem, "Why everyone can find the spark in their own life, but I can't", "Why is it so easy for others to learn to walk, I have taken the human driver's license 800 times. Never ever", "Why everyone is so successful, only I am ignorant all day long"...
Soul No. 22 is the epitome of countless ordinary people on earth. To put it bluntly, they are all nobody, they are not valued, and no one cares. Once landed on the earth, the fate of No. 22 can be imagined. When I was a child, I stumbled to learn to walk, and when I grew up, I stumbled and stumbled on mathematics. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't do the things at hand. Life is so difficult. A stupid child, and then mediocre and self-pity to finish this life.
However, "Spiritual Journey" has peeled off the meaning behind this layer of soul, telling us that no matter how inconspicuous a small person, no matter how small an individual, his birth is through the "source of birth" layers of screening, As a result of training and polishing, everyone's personalities, specialties, strengths, and weaknesses are all recipes carefully prepared by God, and no soul comes to the world casually. You are not dazzling, not smart, not cheerful, not sunny, it doesn't matter, this is arranged by God, don't blame yourself, your birth is a gift to the earth, without you, the earth will lose a unique person Woolen cloth.
In my opinion, "simmering chicken soup and living in the moment" is not the deepest theme of the film. With the selflessness of a mother's love, soul gently stroked each nobody's head, "Children, you have worked so hard to get an Earth pass, but don't deny your existence easily." The gentleness and tolerance that life is waiting for is the most moving setting of soul.
It's a hymn to "nobody" or even "loser", it doesn't matter if you never pass the exam, you'll always be last in running, you'll never get bonuses at work, and you'll never be in love, it doesn't matter. This movie Tell you a reason to live. There is no need to pursue any great goals, grand ideals, living itself is great enough. Dazai Osamu wrote a sentence in "Old Age", to the effect, "I wanted to die this winter, but recently I got a set of rat-grey pinstriped linen kimono, which is suitable for summer kimono, so I Let's live until summer first." "Spiritual Journey" is such a kimono that supports people to live from winter to summer, but also want to smell the cherry blossoms in spring, eat watermelons in summer, step on the leaves of autumn, go home and watch When the green dill is still trying to grow, I think it's better to finish this winter first.
