This is a piece of music played by Howard, played by J.K. Simmons, drinking whiskey at the end of the first episode of the first season of Relative Universe.
I like this American drama very much, it constructs a parallel world. J.K. Simmons, the old-timer of the popping drummer, plays two roles in the play. The honest and responsible office worker was suddenly brought to the interrogation room one day. Under the witness of his boss, he saw himself from another world.
Thirty years ago, during the Cold War, an experiment went awry. The world is divided into two sides, the other side, and the other world, like the world we are in, has another self.
Two people have the same genes and the same childhood, but over time, because of a small choice, completely different lives have been achieved.
A question is thrown, is life the collection of our choices?
The espionage elements incorporated in this play add endless variables to the twists and turns of the plot. Among the deceitful and self-defeating, the most people to look at is the unaware self hidden in each individual. You can call him the dark side, but what is darkness? Different individuals have different definitions of darkness. Maybe darkness is just like the lyrics - hiding in the shadows, feeling like you don't belong there.
Until one day, you see another self coming towards you from the end of the street.
Perhaps, the self-determined cognition gradually formed in life, the so-called darkness, in the eyes of the other self who has embarked on a different path due to a small episode, it is the light like everyday life. This may be the interesting side of the parallel world, the world has a relative self.
As the characters in the show say to Howard A, you are lucky, not everyone has the opportunity to know another self. Just like each of us, we all live with a desire to live, but not everyone can have the opportunity to present such a side in their own lives. We are being influenced by the past.
Two worlds, two myself. The world has formed its own system in development, but what about itself? The most interesting part of this show is that it allows me to have a more specific look at the fact that it is happening. Although they have taken different paths because of their different experiences, one is more outgoing and the other is more reserved. But they have a common personality, but not everyone in this world can fully release their personality. It is an ideal state to have a tiger in your heart and sniff the roses, but those who can do this everywhere in life are extremely rare. Watching movies, seeking sensory cognition and understanding of the unknown world, is not about comparing the epitome in the movie with the taste of life itself. Under the impact of the outside world, some people choose to hide their side and let only those they care about know. Others choose to face the world stronger, even without anyone's understanding and sympathy. But he also seems to have a kind heart hidden under his strong appearance.
Just imagine such a self, who suffered many setbacks when he was a child and suppressed one of his heart. Full of accustomed to this skin, when suddenly one day she sees another self, will she conditioned reflex to exclaim: "You are my true face" . The objective manifestation of this self in different worlds can also be described with a phrase we usually talk about: "Some people are cruel to others, and some people are cruel to themselves." We can't escape our true heart.
The episode "Parallel Universe" has left the deepest impression on me so far in the fourth episode. The reflection of the power of the heart touched me. Close your eyes and think - what would happen if you switched lives with your other self? A is afraid that he will become more and more like B, and B makes no secret of his dislike for A, but slowly, they find themselves more and more like each other. This gradient process is already more interesting than any result. Especially when we lose an important person in our life, but you find that she is still alive and well in another world, but your relationship is developing in the opposite direction - the world suddenly reversed (A is in the B world Watching her unborn, miscarried daughter live and grow in a world full of misery. And B enters A's room—the silence that goes from a hopeful baby room to a mourning utility room.)
It is such differences that gradually lead to the sameness of each other. Well, that's it for a few words about the movie. In fact, I want to write these words to try to explain that each individual is unique, there is no other self, but maybe there will be a person who can let you slowly see your true self in her interaction face. It made me look at thinking about "love", because love is unconditional, and only in this unconditional can your piety reflect your true self.
Watching the dialogue of this drama is like examining my heart, trying to explain the definition of love in my heart. Because I don't think we will meet the same self like the characters in the play, but we can inspire our own awareness of ourselves through the people we love. A rock-solid love is bound to make you know yourself better.
But in reality, not everyone can be fortunate enough to meet this kind of love and have the ability to distinguish it. Love happens in the process, but more people measure it by the result. In this play, A and B express love differently, but their cognition of love in their hearts is the same. what is love? Love is all about loving each other, loving her is good, loving her is not good. Some people may ask, does love include lies? The answer to this drama is that love should embrace the cruel truth, and also need to preserve the illusory beauty. The mastery of this balance is related to growth, experience, and character, but it has nothing to do with other people, and can only be experienced by oneself.
Human life is always passive. At least for most people, it is difficult to have the initiative to choose. In this process, love tests our wisdom. The final love between the two will always be affected by three unrestrained variables, one is their own understanding of themselves, the other is their own tolerance for pressure, and finally the unexpected changes in the objective world.
And the only way to deal with these variables is to love sincerely and act with your heart.
