The 29th original tweet of the personal public account of "Jiaqijun"
Accidentally saw a topic in the headlines, "The collapse of adults, it's too easy . " Indeed, when we grow up and step into society, there are more and more rules that need to be understood and digested in front of us, and at the same time, there are successive difficulties that are difficult to overcome.
But then again, is the key to our collapse really lies in "adulthood"?
In fact, life has never been easy. When you feel that life is easy, it's just that someone is taking the hard part for you , or parents, family members, or classmates and friends. As we grow up, our identities inevitably change gradually, whether it's the departure of relatives or estrangement from friends, whether it's economic pressure or vanity.
We went from beneficiary to bearer.
Coincidentally, the past half year has been the most difficult time for Jia Qijun in the past 20 years (this is also the reason why my article has not been updated between November and March) , and ironically, this is exactly what I The first half year after graduating from university. Work, family, health, everything in the world that has to do with me seems to go wrong, and my body is filled with negativity all the time.
But what I'm going to do today is not to share these specific cases, not only because my life has gradually returned to the right track, but also because I know that the most common thing in this world is the dark sad story, if it can be conveyed, I would like to Passing on happiness, or the way out of the haze.
In the past six months, there are only two things I have done the most, I heard about singing and watching a movie, "Eight Miles" , and today I want to talk about the latter.
Many people call "Eight Mile" Eminem's autobiographical film, but I actually think it's more of a semi-autobiographical drama . There are still many discrepancies between B-Rabbit's story and Eminem's real experience, but we can't completely separate the two, because the movie "Eight Mile" does make a lot of insinuations about Eminem's life, whether it is the characters Still the plot.
Before I talk about it in detail, let me answer a question. There are so many inspirational movies, why did I choose "Eight Miles" in difficult times? I think this is because it is so comprehensive, 110 minutes, family, friendship, love, career, these most important things in our life are all displayed in Rabbit, and his coping method is the so-called inspirational key to produce.
Rabbit's mother's marriage was undoubtedly a failure, and even the first scene we see her in the film is having sex with a man who is not her husband, and we later learn that this man was actually a Rabbit alumni. In Rabbit's eyes, his mother was unmotivated all day long, doing nothing, and doing nothing. The first thing she did when she encountered difficulties was to shirk her responsibilities, and this was what he despised her mother the most. But he had to move in with his mother, and every day in the trailer seemed like a torment. Fortunately, Lily brought a little warmth to his family life.
If the role of mother mirrors Debbie (Eminem's mother), then Lily undoubtedly corresponds to Hailie (Eminem's daughter). Perhaps it is precisely because he has experienced a life without fatherly love that he cherishes the opportunity to give love to his sister (daughter). Since his childhood has been terrible, he will try his best to protect the next generation and prevent similar tragedies from happening again. staged.
Both Rabbit and Eminem deeply understand the meaning of responsibility.
Rabbit is also undoubtedly emotional, and this is imprinted from the beginning of the film, when he leaves the car with his girlfriend who broke up because she told him that he was pregnant. In fact, there are many details in the film that are more successful in shaping this trait.
When Cheddar Bob, who is a little silly in people's eyes, was sent to the hospital for shooting himself in the leg with a gun, his friends were still laughing and even arguing about unnecessary trivial matters. At this time, only Rabbit stood up.
"Calm down! Cheddar Bob is still in the hospital and you guys are arguing about this shit? How stupid!"
When Bob was sent home from the hospital, he pretended to sleep to refuse visits from his friends because he didn't want to be the butt of jokes and entertainment, and his fake sleep deceived everyone but Rabbit.
A true friend not only won't pick on your woman, but also won't "sneer" when you need comfort the most, even if it's the most common joke in a normal chat. When Rabbit sat on the sofa and encouraged Bob, it seemed that he was also facing us in front of the screen and said, if you really love someone, please learn to think in another's shoes first.
The biggest highlight of Rabbit in the film is undoubtedly the last battle, the three freestyles. He conquered the scene, conquered his opponents, and conquered all those who never trusted him.
You and I both clearly remember Rabbit's battle to fame, but don't forget who temporarily replaced him on the night shift to give him a chance to compete. The answer is Paul, yes, the homosexual who was once publicly Dissed, but who at that time not only did not discriminate against the crowd, but also gave him a beautiful step down?
It was Rabbit.
Perhaps, this world has never been taken for granted. Rabbit can compete, and Rabbit can win.
In the film, the accompaniment of "Lose Yourself" has been played many times, which corresponds to Rabbit's figure writing the lyrics over and over again. He is also in the factory on the bus, and beside his friends in front of Lily's bed. dream and work hard.
When many people talk about "Lose Yourself", they will mention a lyric, as if these few words are the embodiment of inspiration.
" If you had one shot or one opportunity , to seize everything you ever wanted. In one moment, Would you capture it or just let it silp. everything, will you hold on tight, or just let it slip away?)"
But in fact, if we have not fought and worked hard for our goals, when the opportunity does come, how can we seize it? "Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared", this proverb has been said to be a common saying, but it is so objective and true.
Rabbit was also confused. He asked a friend a question, "Have you ever felt this way? You just want to say Fuck it. You want to have a higher level of life, but you are still living at the current level. " His friend didn't give the answer, but Rabbit told us the answer through action, didn't he?
When a group of people got together and talked about the distant future, they were full of anger and criticized the injustice of society; while daydreaming, they imagined the beauty of life after being rich. Rabbit, on the other hand, simply stayed out of the way with a blank face. He said, "What you are talking about is useless nonsense. We didn't do anything meaningful, we still have nothing, and stay at home with our mom!"
What is more difficult than holding on to the troubles and pressures of life is daring to recognize your true self. I think the biggest advantage of Rabbit is that he has a good self-awareness, in other words, he has always clearly understood who he is.
I like the ending of "Eight Miles" very much. After the battle, Rabbit didn't "float into the sky" like a few friends, he just replied lightly, "I'm going back to work", and then a People walked into the alley, leaving us a stubborn and powerful back.
The movie is over, but our imaginations can live on.
After that day, Rabbit's life was probably still business as usual, working overtime, scrutinizing lyrics, and repeating countless hard days and nights, finally, Rabbit in the film became our idol, Eminem.
When we are surrounded by negative emotions again in our lives, we might as well find the movie "Eight Mile" and watch it again.
Rabbit has never evaded, whether it is facing the work leaders, or the fists of hostile forces, whether it is facing the boos from the audience, or facing the confusion of future life. He became strong because he conquered his once cowardly self.
Rabbit, who once stood at the bottom of the valley, did it.
What about us?
