Goodbye, country road.

After watching the listening night, after listening to the theme song four or five times, I felt that something had been let go of in my heart.
The nostalgia and hesitation in my heart for the past six months, reluctance and cowardice, and the inexplicable homesickness that disturbed me every night because I was about to leave, seemed to have finally found a place to rest. It’s like returning to the true youth after going through the vicissitudes of life. You don’t need to think about the future or think about the results. Only at this moment, you want to do what you want to do, retreat from all the foreseeable cruel reality, and forget that you won’t succeed. Heroic, enjoy every second leading to the cliff of dreams.

I almost forgot the faster heartbeat when approaching a dream, the final frankness and firmness after those doubts and hesitation, those goals that became clearer after denial, and those who became stronger after failure.
Yes, looking at Moon Island Didi is like seeing herself. In the end, she, standing in front of the Chaoyang with Shengsi, had just experienced a complete failure with all her best, knowing that she was not only far from a genius, but also very small. The dream was far away from her, but the first round of red sun was already there. It illuminates her face, so no matter how hesitated, she will be guided on the road in the future, no matter how scared, she will move forward courageously.

I understand that only in this way can I be worthy of the hometown that I can't go back to.

Bright told me before that she thought of me when she watched this film. She said that she thinks Tsukishima is very similar to me, very much like me.
It was only after watching it that I realized that it was really similar. Like her, I always bid farewell to all my friends after school and go to the library by car alone. Like her, I would pull out the books one by one from the shelf, and hold a thick pile of them in my hands. Like her, I greeted every cat I met, and occasionally dashed across the road, watching the season change from summer to winter, and I was full of curiosity and anticipation of adventure.
Time rushes day after day, but youth still maintains a consistent appearance. Even if the red and white machine becomes a PSP, and Star Wars becomes a World of Warcraft, the young sound of sneakers rubbing against the court in the basketball hall will never stop. The same will be because the boy in the neighboring class calls me to look for Tsukishima Didi. And the collective roaring, those smiles lying on the windows and squeezed into the doorframes peeking are you and me. And like, together, in love, what a beautiful and unpretentious rhetoric in young eyes.

At the age of the cross head, my heart is filled with hope and ideals, and the future is infinitely broad before my eyes.
Therefore, the summer in Koshien never ends, so the gorilla Akagi who dominates the country can also say that the cold noodle man Tezuka Kunomi. Therefore, the boy named Sho in "Baby Blue" said: "Just today, tomorrow. Forget about the future or something, and find a place to hang out, okay.” So there will be that young Fei, exaggeratingly holding a bouquet of ribbons for cheerleaders, standing in front of the camera and smiling:
“I will be ten years later, Are you okay?"
"I am ten years from now, what are you doing? Are you already in love?"
"What am I like ten years from now, is it beautiful? Hey."
"Four, three, two, one, ten Years later, come on!"
"Come on!" "Come on!"

So Tsukishima Didi can run after the black cat he first met without hesitation, and can fill in the song Take Me Home, Country Road Those clean minds that want to drip, sing softly with good friends in the summer afternoon. Therefore, Shengji can blatantly laugh at the girl he likes, and can say so arrogantly that in order to make my name appear on the library card earlier, I read a lot of books. So they can suppress all the anxiety in their hearts and just move forward desperately.

Not sure what kind of adult I want to become, it seems that my life only once cannot tolerate any mistakes. Dreams, the embarrassment of being afraid of regrets and not regretting. Like Didi who hadn't met Shengji before, she had hot desires and hazy premonitions in her heart, but he was slow to pay the price of realization because of the fear of the bitter consequences of failure.
Dreams that are carefully kept are fragile and precious. They seem to be separated from reality and will always belong to dreams.
Had it not been for the white back who strode forward, or the expressionless and serious boy who was immersed in the basement playing the violin, Tsukishima wouldn't have suddenly plucked up the courage to give it a try. It's like meeting Chiaki-senpai's Noda sister, or Hinata who has fallen in love with Naruto. I don't know where that courage comes from, and suddenly I want to be brave and persistent like them once.

The old man showed her a rough stone with emeralds and said, you are all rough stones. Yes, the rough stone, if you don't cut it, you won't know if it contains a piece of crystal jade. Noda is a genius like a song. Hinata has the eyes of the Hyuga family, but Tsukishima Didi has nothing. No one guarantees that she is talented, and no one is sure that someone with a dream can succeed. She can only overcome all fear, doubt, cowardice, and distrust and blame from others, try to open herself, do her best, and try her best to run on the road of growth.
The most gentle thing about Kondo Yoshifumi is that he knows the road is hard and long, so he let Seiji and Didi go together. After such a failure, I ate the ramen that Seiji also ate when he tried for the first time. I know that such efforts are not just to be with you. It is that Sansheng is fortunate that we can go hand in hand on different paths from each other.

Tsukishima sang in the Country Road that he wrote lyrics.
When I’m tired and stop/reappears in my mind/the streets of my hometown/the winding path on the hill/to me like this/is a warning/no matter what setbacks you experience/make up your mind to never cry again/country road/this one Lu/Although she is connected to her hometown, I can't go back/Can't go back to

the baron in the tree, the baron said, live for some ideals that I can't explain. Even if I left my familiar and stable hometown for this reason, I left a place where I was sheltered from the wind and rain to face the unknown life alone, and I did not know what kind of ideals and myself would become.
The same as gambling, stubborn stubbornly, for a little wish, a gaze. Abandoned very important existence, but I don't know if I can get the most important thing.
Unlike gambling, after failure, there can be the most beautiful growth.

Also, I really like the library with card registration. A card carries so much time. Just like the reticent boy played by Takashi Kashiwahara in the love letter, I think, every time he writes his name, he will think of the female Fujii tree. And in the end, he drew a sketch for her on the back of the registration card. The card belonged to a book, and the name of the book was Reminiscences.
