Three Levels of Vitality
Self: Writing
People: Active Communication
Body: Diet and Exercise
These three parts have recently received high attention:
The rambling thoughts have been recorded for a long time, and the lengthy output only started recently, touching the texture of thinking through writing.
In relationships, one is often passive, but in the past three months, I have been continuously filtering online and offline relationships, currently feeling good.
Last month, I tried a month of "light diet" (a bit of a trend follower, haha), and yesterday I weighed myself and was surprised to find that I had lost 4kg. Maybe I'll go back to a normal diet in May.
I have been consistent with exercise, starting with running and gradually incorporating other types of physical activities.
Part X: The Sound of Impossibility
After understanding Part X, the dark side of the inner self can be divided into EGO and Part X, both of which are completely opposite but are "Walls" that hinder our growth. Excessive self-confidence will evoke the former, while lack of self-confidence will evoke the latter.
Perfection does not exist, pain, shame, embarrassment, it is these that connect us with others.
I used to think that it was our connection with others that caused pain, shame, and embarrassment, but now upon reevaluating these relationships, I have realized it is completely the opposite.
In a high-pressure situation where one needs to believe they are perfect, one can have a dialogue with their true self. If I am content with my true self, the opinions of others will have less impact on me.
Everyone has a snapshot in their mind (shallow, static), containing the things we desire most.
However, reality has three elements: uncertainty, pain, and continuous effort. These three will not disappear and will frequently remind us of the snapshot. When one truly lives the life in the snapshot, they will find that reality and the snapshot are disconnected, the three elements of reality will not disappear, and if one does not anticipate this, they will face feelings of defeat.
Find ways to make the "snapshot" dynamic and explore its depth. The snapshot is a form of displacement.
Flow of Gratitude
Identify three or four things that can create a sense of gratitude.
These things are above the dark clouds (Part X), these positive things are completely invisible, but they are there.
Do not seek the same things, continuously explore and find different objects of gratitude.
When negative emotions arise, avoid arguing with them, as it will only bring negative effects.
Dealing with Loss
Experiencing loss can lead to feelings of frustration or depression, always worrying about it before it even happens.
So our goal is to achieve the so-called power of non-attachment.
Find something you are unwilling to lose and rehearse the loss.
The only thing you can do is give, not take.
Our goal is not to become carefree, but to not let loss destroy our sense of wholeness.
Two years ago, a friend shared a similar concept with me, the essence being: in a romantic relationship, both parties do not bind each other to themselves, as long as one's investment in the relationship is genuine, they can choose to leave at any time.
The ending shot language is wonderful! After the conversation ends, Stutz leaves his seat, passes through a door frame with only a door, the camera follows, he lies down, and the background shows calm ocean waves 🌊.
There is a final conversation:
Are you flying in the air?
I hope to stop when my feet touch the ground.
Did you buy flight insurance?
From the title, the identities of both sides are constantly reversed in the film, they are equally fragile. One lost his younger brother in childhood, shrouded in the shadow of death; the other was diagnosed with Parkinson's early on.
