To A Promise

"The Migration of Birds" tells us: This is a stroy of survival. To a promise—return.
To A Promise. Yes, migratory birds have been flying all their lives for a promise, from one end of the earth to the other , from one end of the ocean to the other: over lakes, rivers, seas, forests, glaciers and deserts; through spring and autumn, day and night; through thunder and storms; enduring cold, hunger, loneliness and fear; dodging hunters' bullets , escaping the hunter's cage... fly, keep flying, keep flying, fly back to the place of birth, and fly back to the foreign land of life. It seems that migratory birds come to the world to protect this innate promise and fulfill it with their lives. Time, fear, loneliness and death, no powerful and ferocious force can stop the beautiful wings of the bird flapping under the blue sky, forward, back, and cycle.
So how many commitments has a person faced in his life? You are to others, and others are to you. Where did those promises go? What if we could keep a promise for the rest of our lives?
When Zhang Ailing went south to Wenzhou alone to find her lover, the promise of that love had long since vanished. How will the broken soul face this lost life? Zhang Ailing said that love is only once, and after burning out all enthusiasm, "I will just wither myself." So many times I think that those who keep a promise all their lives are destined to suffer, just as Eileen Chang said, "A kind person always suffers, and the burden of suffering seems to be innate, so there is only patience." . But often what is painful is profound, what is profound is eternal, and eternal is promise. In this way, while we endure pain, we actually fulfill our promise.
It seems that there are still many promises that we guard in our life, but these promises are more bleak and less tragic, more hazy and less bright, maybe because of how difficult things are in the world and unpredictable people, maybe because of flowers. Feihuaxie, the deceased are like this. Buddhists say that "all four are empty", "emptiness" means no desire. "Sit and stand a thousand blades without desire is steel", it can be seen that the less desire of a person, the greater the power. The desire of migratory birds is the most primitive, simple and powerful, that is, survival .So we saw the indomitable shadows of the stubborn birds in the sky, heard their shrill but never trembling calls, and our souls trembled and eclipsed. We have too many desires, and always keep asking for extravagance. More, we make a lot of promises but can't stand the passage of time. Because of too many desires, we lack enough strength to endure the loneliness and loneliness of time, as well as the fear and pain that comes with it...
Blue sky, white clouds , forests, fields, lakes, rivers, I really want to fly forward with migratory birds for a promise.

    The ducks in the fence look at the birds flying over the fence, the little chicks tremblingly learn to fly on the edge of the cliff, the screams after being shot by humans at high altitude, the struggle that cannot take off due to oil pollution, the injured birds alone are killed by a group of crabs. Killing, parrots escape from the cage and spread their wings, etc. These scenes make people feel a bird in their hearts

    Rarely have there been such emotional documentaries. After watching it for a long time, I don't feel like I'm watching a group of migrating birds, but a group of humans: fighting, having children, ups and downs. Sometimes it's like a thriller, a bird is struggling with oil stuck to its feathers; sometimes it's a tearjerker drama, the bird with broken wings escapes to the beach with difficulty, but is eaten by a crab; the penguin couple loses their beloved son and screams in the sky; Part of it is an inspirational film, and the birds fly to their destination without any distractions.
