002 secondary life
Life is a journey, and the foggy future is full of unknowns. No one knows whether what is waiting for them will be uphill or downhill, and no one knows whether the road ahead will be flat or rugged. Unpredictable uncertainty makes life full of uncertainty. full of variables, but also full of surprises.
He once thought that the future was in his own hands. As long as he made a plan that was strong enough, detailed enough, and sufficient enough, he could control every step of his life within the expected range. The future, success, career, family... You and your life will be firmly in your own hands without any deviation..
But obviously, he was wrong. Just as he didn't expect that he would be in a hospital bed for the rest of his life because of a car accident, he also didn't expect that the end of his life would become the beginning of a new life..
In his last life, his name was Chu Jiashu, a Chinese. He was always a well-behaved child. He followed his mother's arrangements, planned his future step by step, and followed every day's plan. "You must You will grow into an outstanding adult, and you will definitely have a bright future." His mother told him from the time he was sensible..
His mother made a timetable for him, marking everything on the blackboard on the wall, planning his life from the age of three to thirty, from studies to friends, from three meals a day to extracurricular activities, everything Everything is placed on that plan, clearly visible, as if just standing in front of the blackboard, you can have a glimpse of the end of life..
He can still clearly recall the New Year when he was eight years old. He wanted to use his New Year's money to buy some fireworks and firecrackers and join the neighbors' carnival, but his mother tried to dissuade him, pointing to the dense schedule. , "We want to hold our destiny in our hands, everything is here, the order is from top to small, from left to right. From every minute to every hour, to every day, every week, every month, every year , till your whole life, everything is in this table. I even made a table for your birthday gifts every year. For example, your eighth birthday gift this year is an abacus, which can be used in the following math class. , I have packed it.”
He looked at his mother who spoke earnestly in confusion, showing confusion and timidity. The sounds of play and firecrackers outside the window were faintly visible. He just wanted to light a firework. But his mother didn't pay attention to him at all. She just stood there. The planner scolded Fang Qiu in front of him and said ambitiously, "There are still one hundred and eighty-three days left before the first grade starts. It sounds very long, but when converted into hours, it is only four thousand three hundred and ninety-two hours. There are only two hundred and sixty-three thousand five hundred and twenty minutes. You will find that you can accomplish so many things..”
He didn't understand what that series of huge numbers meant, but he knew that the perseverance on his mother's face gave him no room to refuse. "You have to arrange every minute of your time based on this form to ensure high efficiency. Make the most of every minute! To be honest, you can only rely on yourself after entering the society. If you want to succeed, we must firmly follow this plan..”
His mother looked at him with a smile and confidence, and he nodded blankly. After all, the words that came to his mouth could not be said. "Very good, you have fifteen minutes to breathe fresh air and relax. And then it’s English time.” These were the concluding words of my mother’s speech, which are still vivid even years later, like a curse, firmly imprinted in my mind..
It is a pity that this grand plan was only implemented until he was twenty-two years old. He was about to leave college. He was actively preparing to join the internship and then seek better development in the future. It seemed that everything was developing step by step and the bright future was bright. The future is waiting not far away, but a sudden car accident brings the plan to an abrupt end..
high paralysis.
He couldn't feel anything below his chest, and could only lie on the hospital bed like a disabled person, terrified all day long. His mother ran around for him and even spent all her family wealth, but she still couldn't reverse time. He had been decadent, crazy, and given up. He was desperate, angry, and regretful... but in the end he survived - like a walking zombie..
Fortunately, he encountered the movie, the unique but meaningful "The Truman Show", which opened the door to a whole new world for him. This form of expression known as the "Seventh Art" lit up In his boring life, he was so greedy that he almost hungrily immersed himself in the world of movies, wandering and flying. Curious about the ups and downs of life, curious about the colorful world, curious about the colorful society, curious about the Unrestrained and unbridled freedom...that is the real life.
Freedom, dreams, life. Just thinking of such words makes his chest feel so heavy that it hurts, because he will never be able to touch them. He has missed them, forever..
He wants to travel to every corner of the world and savor the coldness of the snow-capped mountains and the turbulence of the ocean; he wants to challenge every limit of life, trying the craziness of skydiving and the excitement of extreme rock climbing; he wants to experience every aspect of life. Emotions, the joy of achieving goals and the pain of setbacks... Because for the first time he truly realized that life cannot be planned. Success and failure, happiness and sadness, happiness and torture are two sides of life that are missing. Contradictions and opposites then lose their meaning..
Wanton, uninhibited, carnival, crazy, casual, free. Seize every moment of life, truly give life its own splendor, and don’t let down this rare but only once-in-a-lifetime life..
He couldn't help but wonder, if he became a mountaineer, whether he could climb all the peaks in the world; if he became a reporter, whether he could talk to the world with his pen; if...if he became a A famous actor, can he interpret all aspects of life, can he give soul to the character like those actors, can he move others like the movie inspired him, can he use his acting skills to make art shine in a new way vitality？
Ten years, a full ten years, he was paralyzed in bed for ten years, he communicated with the movie for ten years, but unfortunately, he never had the chance to try those "what ifs". How much he longed to do it again, to break everything The shackles and restraints of the people, I was willful for a while, but everything was too late.
On his thirty-second birthday, due to the failure of his heart and lung function, his regular, mediocre, simple and short life came to an end and escaped into nothingness..
After closing his eyes, the world was dark, but at the end of the darkness there was a faint light, which seemed to be guiding him forward. Is that heaven or hell? The pace under his feet increased, and then gradually accelerated, getting faster and faster, and finally turned into running, and even sprinting. He opened his arms and ran into the milky white light..
At the end, it's not heaven or hell, but new life.
He was reborn.
