In fact, every man is a child

I fell asleep watching "Football in the World" alone at home, alas, I don't know how many times it was, I almost tried Bailing. Thinking about being crazy about football in the
past, but now it can be used as a lullaby... I was about to turn off the TV to go to bed, but I saw that I bought "Grown Ups" that I haven't watched yet, and put it into the disc player by magic, so I started An hour and a half of laughter.
"Grown Ups" tells the story of five middle-aged men in their 40s who are reunited with their families after their old coach died when they were young. After attending the funeral and meeting again, a series of funny stories were triggered. (No spoilers, see for yourself) The
film doesn't have a main line, and the plot won't go up and down. Basically, it talks about where is where. But Adam Sandler arranged a lot of jokes, coupled with well-written lines and a group of good comedians, which made me laugh from beginning to end. In the last basketball game clip of the film, the big fat Lamonsoff played by Kevin James and the equally fat opponent, panting "tear" on the court, one said "I'm going to die", the other said "I can't start the second quarter" , So the two opponents secretly pretend to be injured and take the initiative to end at the same time. When I saw this scene, I burst into tears from laughter. I'm laughing at myself, the teenager who liked to chase football back then has become a fat uncle who took the initiative to ask to leave after running for ten minutes on the field. I still vaguely remember that I once told a girl, "I like football because I feel like the wind when I run." Uh, it's "crazy" right now...
Thinking about it, it makes me sigh with emotion. It seems to be an instant from a flying teenager to a middle-aged man with a family. There are so many things and many people, and before I have time to understand it carefully, I am an "uncle" and fainted. The ideals of childhood and the frivolity of youth seem to be still in front of my ears, and I have become a person who keeps bending to support the family.
In the past few years, many times, I have wanted to be like the five uncles in the movie, returning to the "original" for a few days, and crazy aftertastes of youth. Unfortunately, it has never been possible. In fact, what I am most afraid of is not the lack of time, but the change - that year, I woke up crying because I dreamed of the past, so I desperately asked for leave to return to my hometown, hoping to enjoy the taste of lying on the sand by the river and basking in the sun. But I found that everything is no longer the happy place and green mountains and rivers in my memory. That kind of feeling, that kind of loss, has to be swallowed in the stomach, not let the parents know.
Yes, you will think of those four words, things are right and wrong, yes, everything is right and wrong.
It's just that we are not as happy as the uncles in the movie, and we can go back to the wooden house 30 years ago. Of course, I also know that it is a movie, not life.

    After growing up and busy with life, have you forgotten the simple joys of childhood? The theme is good, but some of the laughs are a bit...anyway, live without regret!
