you are dying

When I was a child, the boys in the yard always set their hands as "eight", making a "shooting" shape, accompanied by the sound of "bang bang" in their mouths. I think that is the most essential heroic dream of every man. At that time they could think of themselves as De Gaulle or Napoleon at will. But when the war of brutal killing is only caused by people's selfish desires, when they pull the trigger in their hands, it is no longer a clear child's voice, but the end of a life, and the injustice brought to them. Heavy recoil.

Young people advocate force, thinking that the strength of their limbs can make any ups and downs, as everyone knows, primitive people do the same. The real life and death is to consider with the heart.

People, without religion, can pray symbolic prayers to satisfy the wishes of their loved ones; without expensive and luxurious Ford cars, they can give away generously for some irresistible little things; however, people always need Something, something to live or die for.

Eastwood, a respectable old man, whether it is the talent of the director, the concentration of the performance, or the exciting music, all give us some clues to think about. This stubborn old man who is used to playing tough guys has a softer and meticulous heart than ordinary people.

You also have blood, so it hurts.
You also have tears, so you will shed.
These all show that you are living and dying.
