The day before yesterday, a friend I hadn't been in touch with for a long time suddenly sent me a message asking if I was okay lately?

As we chatted, we all began to sigh that it had been five years since the last chat.

I remembered a quote I heard a long time ago:

"Probably because of time and place, we won't see each other more than thirty times in our lifetime. ”

(Excerpt from the Japanese drama "Quartet")

The man who said he wanted to be good friends with you for life, are you still in touch?

I don't know if you're like me:

Some people stay in the QQ list that they don't use much;

Some people add WeChat, and they will only occasionally like, comment, and greet in the circle of friends;

And some people have long since lost contact and disappeared without a trace in your world.

It's been a long time since I've chatted, it's been a long time, it's been a long time, it's been a long time......

Just like the landlord's cat sings in the song: the years urge people to grow up, and the hurried footsteps have long been unstoppable.

The person with whom you used to have a good relationship, why didn't you go to the end?

Everyone's life will go through several stages, from ignorance to ignorance, from ignorance to maturity.

No matter who we meet or what we go through, there will be a few girlfriends or friends at each stage, who will go crazy, cry together, and make trouble together.

Accompany us to be young and frivolous, and grow up with us.

is like July and Ansheng in the recently hit TV series "July and Ansheng", one is quiet and well-behaved, the other is rebellious and rebellious, but these two people are so good that they can't wait to be together for a lifetime.

How good is their relationship?

I remember one episode, a gangster went to the school to find trouble with Ansheng, and July, who has always been quiet, was the first to rush out and block Ansheng.

Good friends are like that, the first to come forward.

(Excerpt from the TV series "July and Ansheng")

When they were 15 years old, they both liked a boy Jia Ming, and since then, the relationship between the two has undergone subtle changes.

From the once inseparable, to the later-for-tat.

They were separated because of a boy.

It occurred to me that if it weren't for this message from a good friend, we wouldn't seem to be in touch anymore.

We also later separated because of time and distance.

We used to use flashlights in the dormitory, and we snuggled up under the covers to read the novel "July and Ansheng" together.

Now that the novel has become a TV series, I'm in Beijing, and she's in Nanjing.

There's a long distance between us.

But when she said, "How are you doing?", that sense of familiarity came back.

Just like July and Ansheng, when they meet again after many years, their "lights" will always be on.

No matter how long it takes, they will always stand up for each other, and they will never change.

Yes, in fact, our relationship has not changed.

So, as soon as I received the message "How are you doing?", I had an indescribable surprise.

So I typed "Haha, finally remembering my dad?" in the dialog box, and I thought it was silly, so I deleted it.

I typed "Huh!, you know you contacted me?" and I felt so cold that I deleted it again.

held back for a long time, and finally only sent two words: "It's okay, what about you?"

(Excerpt from the Japanese drama "Sorry Youth")

She was my best friend in high school, and then I was admitted to a university far away from home, and she went to a vocational and technical college.

After graduation, you must know that when the distance is in the middle of the relationship, when you no longer see each other every day, even the best friends will have less and less common language.

Later, when I was busy participating in various club activities, she happily told me that I had another boyfriend.

Whether we are sad or joyful, it seems difficult for each other to empathize.

Everyone can only walk with you for a while, and sooner or later they will have to be separated.

Thankfully, we share memories and are happy to share each other's lives.

It is said that the three best words in life are: reunion after a long absence, loss and recovery, and false alarm.

The same applies to camaraderie.

So, can the distant friendship return to the original appearance?

Frankly speaking, friendship is like a spring, if you press it too hard, it will pop itself out, and if you don't press it, the spring is useless.

And the most practical way to do it is that you press it lightly, and there is a back and forth.

Most importantly, we all have a shared past worth reminiscing.

is like the theme song "Projection" in the TV series "July and Ansheng":

Like a movie playing out whose life, sometimes the bones are sometimes light and light.

Whenever I hear your name, all emotions are felt.

The singers of the song, the two members of the landlord's cat, Xiao Hei and Pei Ling, are also particularly good friends.

They met in college, one loves to laugh, the other is introverted, but the two people who are completely different are surprisingly compatible.

I read an interview with them before, saying that both girls like to eat, they both like all cute little animals, and they don't like to go shopping.

In the summer of 2016, on the occasion of graduation, Xiao Hei and Pei Ling, one was doing an internship, and the other had already found a job.

As they are about to graduate, they agreed to hold a farewell performance, which was supposed to leave more memories of their college life.

Unexpectedly, I met my agent Xian Cheng later, hit it off, and embarked on a new music journey.

When we get together to play music again, we still shine for the same dream as we did at the beginning.

From the inseparability of a young man to the tacit understanding when he grows up, he will also become the original when he reunites after a long absence.

In fact, each of us is very much like Xiao Hei and Peiling, walking through thousands of rivers and mountains, and when we say goodbye, we still miss how brave we have become because of each other.

Even if the two are destined to meet by chance in the bustling crowd and be staggered by the crowd, they will still choose to be grateful when they recall the time when they accompanied each other.

It is said that everyone will know nearly 80,000 people in their lifetime, and only a few of the people we know will become special.

As the landlord's cat said in the upcoming latest single "Due to Time and Geography":

"Probably because of time and place, we won't see each other more than thirty times in our lifetime.

Because you only need to calculate, you will find that you and the people you think are close to actually do not have as many opportunities to meet as you imagined. ”

Life is not like this, the older you get, the more goodbye becomes a common thing.

However, after less than 30 meetings, how can we "say goodbye" to the people we miss in order to be more meaningful?

I think you'll find the answer in the new song "Due to Time and Geography", which will be released at 00:00 tonight by the landlord's cat.

Let's meet the people we want to meet in the song.

▼

I am glad to be invited by your world to accompany you through this journey.

I don't regret that the movie that belongs to us will eventually come to an end, I just hope that we can cross the distance of time and place, meet in every farewell, and be successful in every regret.

We're not going to see you anymore.

END
