Accompany you through the rainy season of life

The ticking rain, the crisp bird song, the lush greenery, the slow piano sound, the boy who bows his head and paints, and the young woman who drinks silently, constitutes the quiet and poetic "Town of Words". The summer heat, like the sugar-free iced green tea you just drank, the moment it slipped into your throat, the faint fragrance after the coldness began to diffuse from the taste buds to the depths of the heart, refreshing and unforgettable.

As a result, the heat turned into coolness, and the restlessness finally calmed down. It feels like at the most overwhelming moment in life, I met a pair of eyes that can calm you down, telling you that when the gloom in your heart has not cleared, you don’t need to rush to the sky, just sit in the rain, regardless of fear. Well, no matter how uncertain, everything that is hard to let go of will eventually become a thing of the past with a warm company. "The Garden of Words" is a story about "accompaniment".

Love often begins with companionship. [Innocent love without gaps] Sodagreen has a song "Playground in the Rain". As long as you close your eyes, a strong sense of loneliness will come on you. In the rain, everything becomes confused, only "loneliness" becomes incomparably clear. I have always liked the green space hidden in the city. Whenever I am tired of the endless hustle and bustle of the city, I always like to find a green corner that no one knows for a while. Although not in the forest, a moment of greenery is enough to make chaos. The mood became clear. Therefore, when the most important scene in the film, "Cool Garden in the Rain" appeared in front of you, a sense of familiarity emerged spontaneously. The difference is that the natural encounter between the two instantly ended loneliness and made the loneliness a warm place. 27-year-old she, 15-year-old him, met unexpectedly in the rain in the cool courtyard. Then, "rainy day" seemed to be their secret phrase: as long as it rains, go to the cool courtyard. The most touching emotions in this world are often needless to say, a rendezvous with a clear heart is enough.

Because love is related to the magnetic field, not to age. Being able to show up when they need each other, a look, a gesture, and a smile are all companions. It is not so much a relationship between a sibling who is twelve years old, but a natural and beautiful encounter, without presupposing any preconditions, and restoring the original appearance of love. Many people are accustomed to the society in the framework. Although they keep saying that love is personal freedom, they always judge other people's love with a narrow perspective, as if it is best to be of equal age, otherwise at least a boy and a girl who are a few years apart. Acceptable, but siblings who are too far apart will become old women gnawing on tender grass.

In fact, they are talking about conditions, not love. Love is an unreasonable emotion, it is natural and indefinable. Not because he gave you something, but because you forgot what you cared about as soon as you saw him. She was full of thoughts, as soon as she chatted with him, her frowned brows slowly loosened. What he brought her was a unique spiritual healing. As if he can't tell why he likes her? I only knew that I began to look forward to rainy days. Although I didn't know anything about her, I was still deeply attracted by her.

At the age of fifteen, he has a careful mind and has to do everything by himself, so he matures earlier than his actual age, and he determines his dream earlier than ordinary people, and works hard to put his dream into action, just to prevent her from treating herself as a child. Look. At the age of twenty-seven, she still had a girlish character. After being hit, she turned around and fled. She always said nothing about important things, and then acted as if nothing had happened.

Old-fashioned teenagers and young girls, like this, although there is an age gap, there is no spiritual gap. In a lonely world, each other is company, because of a precious heart, the lonely courtyard has become a safe haven for the heart. [Love is looking at your inner world] I have always felt that only the trusting feelings are true love. The emotion that cannot share adversity, even after a lot of time together, is still some distance away from love. There is a short dialogue between the heroine and her ex-boyfriend. Although the two broke up, they still maintain a friendly relationship. The fuse of the breakup is that the boyfriend does not trust the heroine just like everyone else. Not being trusted by the one you love may be the key to the heroine's depression. I think of my girlfriend and her boyfriend as well. She digs her heart out to her boyfriend and treats each other frankly, but her boyfriend has repeatedly doubted the authenticity of her words? This hurt her deeply, but she still comforted herself, believing that the two had known each other for too short a time and her boyfriend had not had time to get to know her, coupled with the huge difference in the growth environment between the two, it is not surprising that he would doubt it. I don’t agree with my girlfriends’ self-deception. Although thinking from the other side’s point of view is an improvement, for a man who doesn’t even have trust, love is actually a long way off. Trust has nothing to do with the heart, and has nothing to do with time. The fifteen-year-old boy had only known the heroine for a few months. When he heard about the heroine, he didn't think about the original woman like that, but how to vent her anger for the heroine. The inner world of the heroine he watched and believed in her, so what he saw was not the ugly appearance that his ex-boyfriend and everyone saw. This is the difference between a boy and an ex-boyfriend. Unconditional trust is the only prerequisite for love. If there is no trust, love will not exist.

I told my girlfriend that a man who doesn't believe you is not worthy of love at all, but my girlfriend says that if he loves, he is love. So many women are not hurt by love, but by their own wishful thinking. True love is protection, not harm. [Clear and rain alternate, the rainbow is always there] Most people like sunny days and don't like wet and rainy days. But the happy moments in the film are almost always on rainy days. The warmth of the cool courtyard meets in the rain, the true heart of the torrential rain is opposite. The rain is to block, cut off the approach of ordinary people, and leave them a beautiful two-person world. Rain is also a release. When she was wronged by the eyes of the world, the heavy rain seemed to be silent protest, and the sky was overwhelming desperately. When her depressed tears poured down with the sound of rain, she finally released her inner heart. Emotions, let go of everything and rush towards him. Embracing and crying in the heavy rain is the relief of the two from the bottom of their hearts, no matter what will happen in the future? At least at this moment, in front of the person in my heart, I no longer hide myself, no longer lie to escape. This is the tear point of the whole film, because we all understand that the moment when the two of them truly face each other is precious! Then, they saw the beautiful rainbow after the rain. After watching this film, I suddenly developed a good feeling for rainy weather, especially in this hot summer afternoon, the sudden showers like rain fell from the sky, cooling the hot moment. "Thunder is faint, the sky is cloudy, even if it is rainless, I will stay here. "The boy's answer broke the convention of meeting only on rainy days, and also broke the boundaries between each other, and the hearts were truly merged. As long as you want to see, you can see, and you won't be separated when you walk into the crowd together.

Taking the difficult step, love becomes a simple thing. The change of time is actually the normal life. If there is no rain, the heat is unbearable, and if the sky is not sunny, the haze is hard to disperse. When we see each other in sunny and rainy days, we have the opportunity to see the rare rainbow together. I like that at the end he read the letter from her from afar in the cold garden in the snow. The coldest season, the warmest greeting, it seems that not being together is not the key to this relationship.

This is a story about "accompaniment." The boy warms the heartbroken woman with the affection of first love. It is related to love, and even more to love. Fortunately, in the rainy season of my life, I met someone who truly accompanies me, and the haze and fear in my heart seem to dissipate with it. The short encounter has become a rainbow in life because of long-term concern, and can be missed by the person I like. Even if we are not together, we have never been apart.

    The extremely beautiful scenery is not only a decoration, but also a reflection of the inner waves of the characters. Makoto Shinkai's good thing is that the thunder suddenly sounded when he recited the short song "Manyoshu", it was the silence between the two of them quietly accompanying each other in the pouring rain, it was the words "I like you" slowly in the cup. The warm mist that rises is the sunset with all the emotions pouring out all of a sudden.

    "Vaguely thundering and hazy sky, but I hope the wind and rain can keep you here. Even if there is no rain, I will stay here." More than 40 minutes is too short, and the picture is so beautiful that every frame can be used as a desktop, but ...Makoto Shinkai, you should really ask someone to write the story. Difficulties in life are difficult, often some things have not been obtained, others have been lost. The moment when love blooms is enough to illuminate a long and ordinary life. ★★★☆
