Verse 19: Perfection is itself a defect
"You're still young, that's a fact, people don't get old overnight and can't move, and you don't need to think so seriously, maybe at that time, in that situation, you will have another mood and another happy state of life, people will have beautiful things at every different age, after all, we won't keep staring at the clock every day!" I comforted her.
"But day by day is so fast, if only I could do it all over again as a freshman in college, it must be different from now. But what you said seems to make sense, your mentality is quite good, and you rarely have troubles, right? Melly asked.
"Not very little! Everyone has troubles, so why not accept them? That way, you'll have less trouble! You can't avoid it, so let's welcome it, and since it's something you can't get rid of, take it with you! ”
"I always think you're a little ......," Melly couldn't find the right words for a moment.
"Maybe it's the 'kind of that' you said?" I said, in fact, I know that what she wants to say is to say, "That's weird! This phrase has a similar meaning; Because from Melly's point of view, she doesn't think that troubles should be an inevitable thing that exists in everyone's heart, but that people should not have troubles, what they should have is happiness, happiness, and a perfect state of life, but that doesn't exist! Because perfection itself is a flaw, and her pursuit of a perfect life determines that she must be a sentimental person.
"Hmmm! A little bit of that! ”
"I seem to understand a little bit of what you're saying! Since growing old will bother me, then I will go to a place where no one can find me before I am too old to go out to meet people, hide alone, and no one will see me! Then build yourself a warm hut and watch the sunrise and sunset every day, plant flowers and plants around your home, and take care of them every day - be a hard-working gardener! If there are birds or other small animals coming, I will plant trees again, let them make a nest in the trees and under the trees, be neighbors with them, listen to them sing, and talk to them, do you think it is okay? ”
"Great imagination!"
"That's what I thought! You like it too, right? ”
"Like! I'm alone now, living alone in my own dwelling, and spending more time alone than I can count! The difference from your 'garden cottage' is that I'm not hiding, and I haven't become a grandfather yet! ”
"Hehe, what are you usually busy with?"
"Me? Every day when I go to and from work, I seem to spend more time on the road. In my spare time, I read books or listen to music, rock music, classical, jazz, and I have collected CDs from Brian Adams, Louis Armstrong, The Beatles, Nirvana, Johannes Brahms, and Gustav Mahler! Drink some beer once in a while, or just play the guitar and look at the sky outside, it's a nice feeling of peace and quiet! ”
"Hmmm! After listening to what you said, it seems to be good! ”
"At least it's not too bad, is it?" I said.
"It's already good, huh! And I like to listen to the sound of the piano, no matter what the piano is, violin, guitar, piano or anything, I just like that sound! No matter what kind of song, sad or cheerful, every time I hear it, I feel very touched, and there is something in it that touches me very much! As soon as I hear the sound of the piano, I will put down what I am busy with until I finish listening, whether it is the combing of the past time or the nostalgia for the lost youth, I feel that there will always be a feeling of my own that can be released in the sound of the piano, just like seeing the dew on the grass leaves in the morning, pure and sentimental! Maybe that's what moved me! So what is it? ”
"That's what should be called the infectious power of music, right?" I replied. I didn't expect Melly to feel so much about music.
"Hmmm! It's the power of music! By the way, you play a great guitar, right? ”
"It's not great, it's not bad, it's able to play a few of your favorite tunes in its entirety!" I replied.
"Any chance to hear it?"
"I think there will be!"
