We can never get out of our setting

This drama has been played by Amway for a year, and I didn't watch it for the first time. The obscurity of the Spanish language, the suppression of the pictures, and the difference in the expression of emotions between Chinese and Western characters hindered me from continuing. Complicated and incomprehensible books and movies are suitable for soothing impetuous hearts. Recently, the relationship has been rough and self-abusing dramas. Although this drama did not distinguish the family names of the characters in the sixth episode of the first season, it somehow resonated.

When I saw a short comment "Italy is the Chinese countryside in Europe", I couldn't help smiling. Indeed, this drama can resonate with any girl in our small town.

Most of the small town girls will replace themselves as Elena. There is a pair of parents who do not know enough but love them. I don’t know why they are studying, but they are still obedient and study hard. This is simply my childhood.

He is a little smart, clean and well-behaved by his parents. He has been regarded as a good student and a role model by his teachers since childhood. He has his own pride and conceit, but he is timid and silent and introverted. He always feels that he is not good enough and has some inexplicable inferiority. Like little Elena. Coincidentally, we also meet some real geniuses like Lena.

I have a sister who has crushed my existence since she was a child. She can write better than me, sing sweeter than me, and it doesn't seem like it takes much effort to study. Mathematics is probably a hurdle that girls can't get around in their studies. In the rush to answer questions in the play, the previous literary and historical Elena can actively deal with it. When it comes to mathematics, Lena is the absolute crusher.

But my math was not crushed. Thanks to my good father, I always remember the long evening after dinner. My father would play chess and do elementary school math Olympiad with me on the table on the balcony. What chicken? The problem of rabbits in the same cage, the problem of cattle grazing, the problem of water entering and releasing water in the pool, sometimes one or two hours to do a question, I don't understand, my dad even builds some simple and easy-to-understand models to tell me, my dad It's not that I hope my son will become a dragon, but I think mathematics is interesting. I have no fear of mathematics since I was a child.

But not my sister. What our generation of small town girls encounter is not poverty, but neglect. My dad and mom got divorced when my sister was very young, and my sister grew up at will. She was indifferent to her studies, but her grades really made me feel inferior. s hard work.

Elena’s thoughts are also mine. My parents and my mother later became families. My elder sister often felt that she was the extra one. Nowhere is home. I am both sympathetic to my elder sister’s experience and jealous of her talent and beauty, little girl. The friendship and love and killing of each other are vividly reflected in the play.

However, we are ordinary little girls in the town after all, not geniuses after all.

Sister does not have the vision and pattern of Lena, nor the awakening of female consciousness and the desire to control fate. Because of her beauty, she soon began to fall in love, abandoned her studies, and because of the neglect of discipline at home, she married and had children early, and she did not even have a high school. graduate.

And I don't have the hard work of Elena for several years. My parents also adhere to the educational philosophy of being happy. In addition, during my schooling, I was as confused as her. When it comes to what reading can bring me, I have to live by it, get through college, and go with the flow of exam editing work, and I haven't left my block.

I saw a sentence before, we spend our whole life to heal our childhood. In fact, when I saw it, I sneered. My childhood was only a dozen years, and my life could last for decades. Why bother to make excuses for my mediocrity. But maybe not the cure, but the difficulty to get out.

Whether it is character, choice or achievement, it is indeed difficult to get out of our childhood. Although it is cowardly and irresponsible to attribute everything to fatalism, it is indeed difficult to obtain the vision of the pattern.

Speaking of Lena, in fact, she has stepped out of the limitations of her family and childhood. Her talent even gave her the awakening of female consciousness and resistance to the injustice of fate, but she still could not get out of the limitations of the times. In that era, It is a fantasy for women to be independent and realize their self-worth. Once again, the author smashes crystals for us to see.

Fortunately, there is still hope, just like the end of the play, Lena said to let Elena continue to help her read the book, so do we, life is actually getting better and better with the changes of the times, even if we can't get out of ours Fatalism, but fate is also getting better and better.

    The Italian female writer Elena Ferrante, who is about 75 years old, has a mysterious and low-key writing life and secretly competes with her vivid and bright novels; Elena and Lila for 60 years. Along with Elena Ferrante's own mysterious existence, her work "The Neapolitan Quartet" is not only a subtle exploration of feminism and gender issues, on the other hand, it also explores the poor post-war Neapolitan community life (ie Italian society), and modernization. The change of appearance after that is printed on the friendship tone of the best friends Elena and Lila. Although HBO invested in Italian dramas for the first time, it already has the ship of the former Sorrentino's "Young Pope"; no matter in the details of the era background, clothing, art, and even the restoration of the building, it has been carried out very thoroughly. The addition of Max Richter's soundtrack seems to be the perfect fit!

    I also had good friends since I was a child. We are very similar, but she is prettier than me, smarter than me, and has a happier family than me. Before I met her, all the boys liked me. After I met her, all the boys and even girls who came into contact with me were for her. When she was a freshman, she finished the TOEFL test, and I was still confused. She said you can prepare for the gre with me. I said yes, because then she could come to my house every day, practice composition in the morning, and eat my mother's meal at noon. , I sleep in the big bed in the morning, and sometimes I go out to watch a movie in the afternoon and go shopping, and sometimes I continue to practice writing. But one day she called and said that she could no longer study and her father would not let her go abroad. Her father is a high-ranking official and is very authoritative at home. Later, I went to the United States to study for a Ph.D. and look for a job, and I watched her work under her father's arrangement, which was stable but far below her ability. After watching my brilliant friend, my mind drifted back to the year when I was sixteen. We ate fat beef rice noodles with sesame oil in a fast food restaurant before our evening study. It was so spicy that I was sweating. She said with bright eyes When we were six years old, the two of us traveled the world.
