If our heart is hard and indifferent, the life we see is also hard and indifferent; if our heart is warm and soft, the life we see is also the same. There is nothing new under the sun, life has always been like this. Since life is so ever-changing, what is life? The Buddha taught the truth: everything is empty. It is precisely because of the emptiness that we can paint and create at will. What is created is our life. What we see is created by ourselves, not related to others, not related to life, but only related to ourselves. Are you satisfied with your current creation?
About "Modi"
When I saw Mo Di mustering up the courage to start her own life, a sentence came out of my keyboard: To start a life of our own is never easy, even if we stay in the same place. A life is called a life because the one who lives it. When Mo Di and her husband separated due to differences, and each missed the person beside their pillow, another line of sentences came down: The feeling of having a person beside you belongs to you only, belongs to the one who stands next to you; hand in hand, heart to heart. I used to know very well that I am not someone who can create experiences, but distilling experiences and applying them is how I live. But now my opinion has changed. I am the creator of life, I am creating my life experience, a unique life experience.
Before the age of 30, living with me was like a new book that I loved, and I was looking forward to it because I knew very little; after the age of 30, I knew the outline of this book, knew the value of the book, and had little understanding but full of expectations. 30 is a milestone in life for many people, and for me, 30 has brought me one step closer to life. For Mo Di, her life is closely related to her because of her love for life. She is warm, soft, accommodating, careful, trusting in others, and looking forward to life. Husband is strong, hard, demanding, rambunctious, rude, savage, distrustful of others, and full of hatred for life. From a psychological point of view, Mo Di did not hate herself because she was disabled, and her husband did not like her because she was healthy. We will naturally associate the growth experience of two people, yes, indeed their growth experience is very different. Although Mo Di is disabled, she grew up with her mother's love. Although her husband is healthy, he grew up in an orphanage. Life is equally cruel to them, but their choices are completely different, and it is because of their expectations of life that they come together.

I often say a word on my lips: people need to learn to express and know how to express. After so many years of self-education, it has also been dominated by reason for so many years, and I have not really understood the true meaning of expression. Gradually, I realized that if life is all rational, it seems that this book is not worth reading for a lifetime. After thinking about it, it seems that we can leave. If you haven't left, is it because you haven't thought through it? No, it’s because I haven’t experienced enough, I haven’t learned how to live. From this movie I saw that life happens so naturally. When Mo Di needed to live alone, a man appeared, and when a man needed a woman to support her life, a woman appeared, and life began. Life does not begin because we know how to express, or are good at expressing, but begins with real needs and understanding. This need comes from the heart, and this understanding comes from the heart. During this time, they are feeling, not thinking.

(speaking to Mo Di)
Hey Maudie! Maudie, hello!
When you were rejected by your family, you didn't give up on yourself. Pick up a brush if you like to paint, go to the club if you like the fun in the club, even though Aunt Ada is upset with you, you are not angry, you even persuade your aunt to go to the club, maybe she needs some fun too.
You seem to have decided to leave your aunt's house, so you find out about a brutish man looking for a maid. The moment you rip off the ad from the job board, it looks like you've captured something in your heart that you can't bear to share with others. Of course you didn't have any friends at that time, because your aunt basically wouldn't let you go out and make friends. She and your brother thought you couldn't afford to live. They don't know how much kindness you live with. pity!

You've come a long way, and you meet that brutish man with a smile on your face, despite your inconvenience. When he says you are different, you don't get angry, but tell him calmly, I'm not weird, just different from others, and most people don't like people who are different from them. You know that you are different from others from a very young age, but you do not feel inferior and unworthy. I think you should have felt a lot of love from your mother. Although she passed away, I believe that you love her.
From the moment you met him, you saw his loneliness and helplessness, you saw a person who needed to be loved and accompanied, and you knew that you could take care of him and accompany him, so you cast an olive branch, even though he didn't for the first time accept. You finally leave your aunt's house and can live on your own, even if it's just a maid, and you feel dignified to live on your own. In that lonely little house, you started the life you wanted, with a man, a flock of fowls, two dogs, and you found life far from the village.
It's not easy to start your own life, and I'm sure you feel it, but you still gently endure that man's rough treatment of you. Instead of resisting, you chose to obey and accept, finding opportunities to communicate and understand each other in the details of your life. Yes, you helped him record the business of selling fish. The moment you picked up the paintbrush, you certainly did not expect that those exquisite paintings could be sold for money to subsidize the family. You finally became business partners, he started silently accepting you, helping you, and you got married for very little money. There is no family witness, only the priest, and yourself. On the wedding night, you hugged and danced, how romantic and beautiful it was. Yes, you are married, have a reliable husband, a stable place to live, and a place to paint. Life seems to be complete in that moment, and you are happy.

Gradually your paintings began to be known by many people, various media came to that small house, videotaped, took pictures, your life was covered in newspapers and TV at that moment, even your brother came to take advantage of your fame get money. But you don't care about fame, life goes on as usual, nothing changes you. When you know that Aunt Ada is dying, you insist on walking to see her despite your husband's objection, with your own paintings. Your body was already bent at that time, and it was so difficult for you to walk such a long distance, but you went without hesitation. When you see your aunt, you are neither humble nor arrogant, and you still respect her. You know that she has always disliked you, she is not very good to you, I am thinking how can you be so calm to accept a relative who is not too kind. Because she is your relative, she deserves your attention. After all, she is about to grow old. You choose to understand and tolerate, not to care. You treat it so tenderly that she finally shows her sincerity to tell you the truth. You didn't complain that they treated you and your child so cruelly, you were shocked knowing that the child lived like a normal person. What is the power that allows you to treat those who hurt your loved ones without any resentment and anger? A child you have never met has left you for decades and your heart is still concerned. When you look at your daughter from a distance, I believe you see the miracle of life, because she is so perfect, you are happy in your heart. It seems that at that moment you feel your worth because you have created a perfect life.
If there is no quarrel between husband and wife, it is basically impossible. The most intense quarrel between you and your husband is because you want to see children. You have lived together for a long time and have never had children. I don’t know what your husband thinks. That quarrel didn't ruin your relationship, and the brief separation made you realize your attachment to each other. The husband came to admit his mistake and expressed his love to you. You said that the clouds in the sky are like a bald woman with a big butt, but your husband only sees you. At that moment your heart should be smiling. You say that life is frozen in the pane, and the beauty of the four seasons is displayed in the pane. You paint the real world, you paint real life, that's all.
picture
Life doesn't treat you special. As you get older, your body is getting worse and worse, and you are so weak at the last moment of your life. I think you are satisfied. The moment you left your life, your husband was with you, and you left quietly and silently.
Hey, Maudie! You never complain, you never fight, you're gentle and wise, you want a simple life, and even so, it takes courage to face it. The husband is an orphan. He chooses to be strong, rude, uneducated, and doesn't know how to care about others for the sake of life; he needs love, he needs warmth, and he wants a simple life. Life in his eyes is tough, cruel, and indifferent. The life in your eyes is colorful, lovely, kind and warm. Life teaches us both to be strong and to be soft. Life is what we are.
