In an instant, another year is coming to an end.
This year, we experienced wind and sword, and also bathed in sunshine and rain.
A year can be long enough for us to experience joys and sorrows;
A year can also be very short, as short as a turn, a brush, and then live far apart.
Zhang Ailing said: "For people after middle age, ten years and eight years seems to mean something between parents."
Those unexpected warmth, the chance of a day, can't turn back.
Those who turn a blind eye to beauty may be fleeting;
Those peaks that were once considered insurmountable may eventually reach the peak;
Those who indulge in it may be cured by time.
I was deeply moved to see the new trailer of the movie "A Little Red Flower" recently.
Finally, I understand that time is a trip with no turning back. No matter how long or bad it is, it is a scenery along the way.
Life is only once, let's cherish it.
Today, you are used to it,
How many people can't make it to tomorrow?
When I first watched the trailer of Little Red Flower, it was not the actors or the pictures that attracted me, but the lingering background sound in my ear.
That is the ticking of an hour hand, and it is also the most common sound of ECG instruments in hospitals.
The volume is not big, but people are instantly in the tense atmosphere of countdown.
Later, it was discovered that both male and female protagonists were "tumor youths" who were seriously ill, and the tumors were all in their brains.
This is a story about disease, life and hope.
The so-called "countdown to life" is just a hypothesis for ordinary people, but it has become a daily life for them.
I still remember that there was a scene that was particularly worrying.
Liu Haocun, the heroine, asked with a smile that some people will suddenly master several languages after brain surgery. What would you do?
Jackson Yi's hero smiled and said, After the operation, I can see the future.
Plain tone, laughing words, but tell the most cruel truth.
We all know that it is not the future he "sees", but the future he desperately wants to go to.
How many people are always used to complaining about the ordinary and boring life, but they don't know that the present we are used to or even bored with hides a tomorrow that countless people will never reach.
A few days ago, junior high school students shared their wedding news.
After sending my blessing, I suddenly remembered that the boy at the front table had died for three years.
Three years ago, he seldom spoke, and suddenly he sent a message in a circle of friends:
"We are Xiao Zhang's parents. He has advanced gastric cancer. The hospital in the city said it could not be saved. Please help us. If you know any experts in this field, please contact us. "
Everyone was shocked to hear that he was seriously ill, but we young people can't help at all except donating a little.
Just as the students were planning to find time to visit him in the group, his circle of friends had become "Aiko passed away last night".
The passage of a life is so silent
The promised reunion has not been held, the promised marriage and children have not been realized, and I promised to be the best man for my best friend, but I can't wait for the wedding day.
When he was young, he always thought the future was bright, but his world suddenly stopped at the age of 25.
Until that moment, I found that life is really too fragile.
In the movie, two "tumor youths" laughed and expressed their wishes, which were simple and even humble, "to be a normal person".
Now that I think about it, the word "normal" is already extravagant for seriously ill patients.
Expectations have not failed, but have been postponed.
Camus said a word:
"I don't expect life to be smooth sailing, but I hope that when I encounter difficulties in life, I can be its opponent."
Those who dare to fight against life are brave. Even if they are defeated in front of life, they will not waste their time.
In A Little Red Flower, both men and women are young, but they are all such people.
With enthusiasm, facing pain, facing the threat of death, and facing the assumption that there is no tomorrow, they are still looking forward to it. They didn't flinch, but took the initiative to meet him.
Everyone who has seen the trailer will be moved by the light in their eyes.
They said, "We are not afraid of illness" and "Stay with her and don't let yourself regret it".
Maybe it's because I'm seriously ill that I live a very hard life.
I remember seeing an equally brave couple on a Korean TV program.
In front of the camera, the terminally ill wife, although she had shaved her head because of treatment, still smiled happily in her wedding dress, but her husband suddenly cried.
The wife asked, why are you crying, fool? The husband said, because you are so beautiful.
The wife happily comforted her husband: I am healthy when I get married. Don't cry.
Unfortunately, God didn't take care of the girl, but she died anyway.
After more than ten years, the program group found her husband again.
That young man has become a middle-aged man with long hair and lives alone.
He didn't feel sad when he mentioned his wife who died young. He just smiled and said quietly:
Thank God, I got a fairy-like love in my life, and I want nothing else in my life.
In his eyes, as long as he has been in love, it is something to be happy about, even if it brings pain, it is precious.
Compared with them, we are happy enough.
Life will always experience a moment of expectation of breaking, but after breaking, it will usher in reconstruction.
Is there anyone who doesn't cry or hurt while trying to get through the difficulties given by life?
Some people say that except for life and death, everything else is a scratch.
If we are frustrated again, we might as well tell ourselves that the expectation is not lost, but delayed.
Compared with life and death, what we should do is to cherish the present, cherish the time with our parents and cherish everything around us.
The gift of fate will eventually come to us.
Live to the extreme every day,
Is the best respect for life.
Tagore wrote in his poem: "The world kissed me painfully and asked me to sing back."
For terminally ill patients, life is like a sharp knife hanging over your head that may fall at any time. This kind of life is hard every minute.
However, the two protagonists in A Little Red Flower lead an ordinary life with relish.
This man is not afraid. He got cancer at a young age. Who can be afraid?
Even when they went to have a barbecue, he subconsciously said, "My mother said that eating these is easy to cause cancer."
As a result, people around you woke him up again and again:
Father said, "You should do something that you should do at your age."
The girl said, "Don't you already have cancer?" What is life? It is "when is the spring flower and autumn moon, the beer is dirty and the waist is small."
Yun-peng Yue's friend also said: "People are alive, whether they are sick or not."
For everyone, life is destined to be only this once, and there is no turning back before opening the bow. So why not live a full life and enjoy it?
I watched the video of @ Xiaoying couple a few months ago. The rural couple, wearing the simplest clothes, danced the happiest dance.
In front of the old house, beside the muddy road, in the endless fields, they confidently danced ghost steps.
Some people say that they are so happy, they must have no troubles in their lives. On the contrary.
The couple's income is meager, so it is difficult to save money for small business. The husband was frightened in the car accident, leaving sequelae and being taken care of.
Just as this ordinary rural family slipped into the abyss step by step, his wife resolutely decided: Come and dance.
Thus, a dance with the original intention of treating diseases began.
Gradually, Xiaoying's husband got better, and the couple unexpectedly became online celebrities.
Think of Socrates' words: everyone has the sun, mainly to make it shine.
True light is not because there is no darkness, but because it will never be swallowed up by darkness.
Some people always say, live every day as if it were your last.
I didn't think much of this sentence before, but after watching the movie, I found that this is the greatest respect for life.
Send you a little red flower.
In the movie, the heroine drew a small red flower for the hero, saying: reward you for taking the initiative for the first time.
Yes, their life can inspire the courage to love life.
This is actually a particularly rare attitude.
Too many people are always used to being harsh on themselves, and always feel that they are not good enough. They dare not pursue when they meet, and regret when they miss it.
Why do people always waste precious time waiting and hesitating?
From now on, live in the present.
Whether it is good or bad, accept it gladly, even if it is knocked down by life, after a short rest, it is still ready to go.
2020 is a special year. On the last day of the year, we might as well go to the cinema to see a little red flower.
In this way, I say thank you to myself who has worked hard for a year.
Thank you for not giving up halfway, for not losing to the impermanence of the world, for not changing easily, and for still keeping your blood, sincerity and warmth in your heart.
All active people deserve a little red flower.
