Pixar's new animation, Luca, is so touching... The Chinese translation is called Summer Friendship Day, it's so accurate, I burst into tears.
You think back to a summer in your childhood, maybe a summer vacation at your grandmother's house, maybe a trip with your parents, maybe you just moved to a new place, and then you meet a friend, a friend who doesn't care about you at all Different friends, she shows you her world without reservation, takes you to run around in the streets, takes you up the mountain to fish, and you can do things that adults don't understand together. Your daily mood is "Wow!"
You also met a friend of the opposite sex, but at that time you didn't have the concept of men and women, only friendship, and simply played with each other every day because of getting along well.
There will be parents who are worried about your safety, and elders who secretly support you.
Looking back, the first time your self-awareness collided with someone else, you realized that there are different people in the world with different lives, and also realized that it doesn't matter, choosing your friends will support you. You start to know what is empathy, what is team, what is caring and love. You know the kindness between people.
I remembered that when I was a child, I went to target with my father. The train went through the remote mountainous area of Yunnan. I was very poor. I lived in a farmer’s house. Small potatoes shaved in the ground, fish caught in the river roasted on top, peeled and dipped in chili noodles. When I left I gave him all my snacks, books, money, and really wrote letters for years.
I thought of a lot of important friends at every stage of my life, the little friend who brought you to play at grandma's school, the little friend who rushed over to hug you first in the earthquake, and read the high school textbook with you and said that we will go here together in the future. Really went there with friends.
When I grow up, my relatives will leave, there will be so many troubles, and there will be the question of whether there is pure friendship between men and women. Life is only the most perfect summer vacation of childhood. Never again. But thinking of those friends makes me very moved.
Thanks all the friends who pulled us out of the water and helped us find our way.
