Murakami-style loneliness As much life as possible

"Tony Takiya" is still a typical Japanese atmosphere. And the atmosphere of the village?
have no idea.
I was watching Murakami's "Sputnik Lovers" two days ago, and it was a little different. It's Murakami's style. As soon as I read this book, I remembered the feeling brought by reading "Norwegian Wood" and other texts by Murakami. The obvious tone of the child in "The Catcher in the Rye" is very interesting. of.

Lonely people should work hard to treasure rich memories

Should lonely people be young people? Although Zhang Chu shouted in his song, "Lonely people are shameful".
The loneliness of young people may sometimes be deliberate, their own choice, a way for them to fight against the world and against society?
And the loneliness of the middle-aged or the elderly is more passive or a last resort? But the loneliness of middle-aged people should have a warm and peaceful atmosphere in my opinion, because there are rich stories and memories about life.
A middle-aged man must have many, many memories in his life, not like Tony in the movie.
I can understand Tony's behavior of selling all his wife's clothes after his wife's death, because women's clothes are useless to him after all, but he should still leave something in one way, next memory?
In particular, he sold all of his father's records after his death. It is incomprehensible. what a pity.
Of course, Murakami's characters have always had some very understandable emotions. They have a strange temperament, a lonely and seductive temperament. Looking at them from a distance, their vitality or dullness will be clearly discernible. It is ornamental, but these characters are not life-like, and they are a lonely and even lonely life.
I still think Tony should leave some material things behind. Sometimes, these things can let you know what kind of life you have lived, what kind of life you have lived.
It's hard not to be lonely anymore - Tony met his wife, but this woman who regarded buying new clothes as her life eventually died in the trance brought by the clothes. Tony fell into loneliness again. Fate is inevitable, right?

Who lives longer than who?

A friend once said that she wants to live long and long enough, because she has a premonition that her life will not have too much drama. She said that in terms of quantity and quality, if she lives long enough, She has the opportunity to experience and appreciate many scenery and things in the world.
I remember at the time that I regarded this theory as a whimsical theory.
From another point of view, in fact, there is not much difference between me and my friends - such as my love of watching CDs.
As far as my own discs are concerned, in fact, the good or bad of the movie certainly affects my viewing experience, but from another point of view, my liking for watching movies is actually a curiosity about the diversity of life. ——I know that there is a life that I will never set foot in. Perhaps it should be said precisely that I will basically never live any other life except my own limited life, but I I am still curious about how other people live, so I am keen on watching movies. This is the easiest way to understand a different life.
In this sense, I am no different from that friend - I also want to have Or to know more or as much life as possible.
I would love to watch a disc like "Tony Takiya" in a dozing noon. The movie is only 70 minutes long. However, we have seen and known the life of a person, maybe a kind of person. This is also true. a life.
Like Tony's life, his wife's life, his father's life. None of these are the life states I like, but what's in the way? After 70 minutes, turn off the DVD player and put the discs back in my disc rack. Looking at the clock on the wall, it was two o'clock. It was time to go to work. When I left, it was just in time for the clock-in time of two thirty.
Under the same sunny or cloudy sky, I have lived the same or different life as many people.
