Perceptions from the perspective of historical torrents

I just watched the global economic history recently, and told about the rise of Britain, the road to prosperity brought by the industrial revolution, and the rapid development of the American economy after the globalization of the industrial revolution. High degree of urbanization, high wages, the construction of the first railway and crazy railway laying, the strengthening of mass education, the influence of World War II, the rapid development and application of technology. . . Originally it was just an objective description in the book, but through the life of ordinary people in the movie, everything was displayed very naturally. This feeling is really wonderful and moving, and it made me feel the traces of history more truly, and The development of the times has a profound impact on people. At this moment, in the torrent of deep history, every minute and every second, we truly exist, experience, and witness. In recent years, my understanding of parents and society seems to have become more profound, such as my attitude towards marriage, the way parents and children get along, and the choice of lifestyle. The various views that have arisen have changed from original anger and grievance to In order to be inclusive and respectful, and to be successful and handsome to the historical era, these problems are not problems of personal or family conflicts, but problems of different times, so there is no need to care about it anymore, just seek common ground while reserving differences. The mutation of the family and the problems of personal marriage seem to be the result of the passage of historical times. Everyone is experiencing everything and suffering the consequences. When watching the movie, I was really moved to tears. The turbulent environment may always exist. No matter when and where I am, enjoying the ordinary life without fear, it turned out to be such a beautiful and powerful process. The whole environment has been ups and downs in the past 20 years. Perhaps what we ordinary people need is this kind of indifferent and peaceful state of mind, optimistic and pragmatic attitude. It also reminds me of the ordinary but warm life of my grandparents, which is awe-inspiring. When my grandmother died in high school, I secretly made up my mind that I must live a wonderful life, tossing enough to live in a fragile and limited life. But now, I seem to understand that the wonderful life may not require some dramatic stories to be told to others. It is enough to live every moment steadfastly. Love and marriage may not be so dreamy or utilitarian. Treating them simply and plainly is not a kind of happiness.

Ethel & Ernest quotes

  • Ethel Briggs: I could have married a deep-sea diver.

    Ernest Briggs: Well, why didn't ya?

    Ethel Briggs: Because I didn't love him.

  • [first lines]

    Raymond Briggs: [voice over] There was nothing extraordinary about my Mum and Dad, nothing dramatic, no divorce or anything, but they were my parents and I wanted to remember them by doing a picture book. It's a bit odd really, having a book about my parents up there in the best seller list among all the football heroes and cookbooks. They'd be proud of that, I suppose, or rather probably embarrassed too. I'd imagine they'd say, "It wasn't like that," or, "How can you talk about that?" Well, I have, and this is their story.
