Both happiness and sadness grow with you

Everyone grows and grows, but we don't notice the changing emotions as we grow.

This is a film that seems to tell the story of a child's emotional rebelliousness during adolescence, and then overcomes his own rebellion, reconciles with his family, breaks through the new things and new environment, and becomes brave. But after watching it, I vaguely felt the deeper meaning conveyed in the film, you like joy, not sadness, you like presumptuousness, fear and worry. But they all inevitably exist in our minds and emotions. You cannot avoid them. You can only face, restrain, accept, and change as you grow and mature in your mind. Facing fear, restraining anger, accepting joy and suffering sadness, this is growth.

In the process of being in the city, Riley overcame the discomfort of the new environment, understood the difficulties of his parents, changed his willfulness, and strengthened his will. It seems that the special forces helped and rescued her. But think about ourselves, when faced with things in life, isn't the agent in our mind actually ourselves? When we decide to face a thing, a fear, or even a crisis, we should like to be happy, face it bravely, give up or try to overcome it. In fact, without that agent, we are our own emotional control villains~

I repeatedly thought of a question in the film, if everyone's mind is only Lele, and there is no worry, it would be great. This is a beautiful new world, a harmonious society, and sunshine will be scattered all over the ground. But as I look back, I feel that this is unrealistic and imperfect, and it is not the spirit conveyed by the film. The US and China emotions have their own meaning. Positive energy leads us to the future, illuminates the beacon, and guides us forward. The existence of negative emotions can also make us put down our feet, remind us not to walk so fast, stop and think deeply, look at the scenery along the road, and remind you to take care of the people around you. Only the combination of happiness, sadness, and fear can make our life experience complete, colorful and memorable.

In addition, this film does not know Riley's brain hole changes, and also compares her parents' brain and emotional changes. Parents are the most important person in a child's life, and they influence the child all the time in the child's growth experience. Your happiness, sadness, bravery, anger, and even a trivial action will affect the child's growth experience. At the end, I can feel that this is a movie full of educational psychology. What kind of emotion you are, how you will affect others and how others will see you.

From simplicity to complexity, from innocence to adulthood, from a person to a family. Happiness and sadness are together, but there is a golden age on the road of growth~

    15.10.6 This is not an animation, this is an abstract science movie. There is nothing new in the model, but that is not important, what is important is that Pixar has delivered a set of psychological codes suitable for everyone to read themselves, and based on this, we can penetrate into the perceptual and gorgeous mystery: there is never happiness. This is the best thing. Any emotion is worth cherishing and even enjoying. Following the feeling is the kingly way of paving the colorful life.

    Best of 2015! Stories, creativity, details, feelings... Pixar all returned to the top, with tears in laughter. The most terrible time is when emotions lose their dominance and become numb... Happiness is sometimes not the most important thing, but the necessary sorrows make life more successful, one grief and one growth. Everyone has an emotional master in his mind, allowing us to adapt to the new environment, accompany everyone, and live every day in the ever-changing life.
