Douban 9.3 "Little Forest": So we all yearn for such a life

"Little Forest" is an adaptation of Daisuke Igarashi's manga. It's just telling an ordinary and ordinary story, but it is such a simple story that makes people's memories of sleeping once again called.

, ​​the heroine Ichiko in the play Hashimoto Ai grew up in Komori, a village in the northeastern region of Japan. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city and impetuous, surrounded by green mountains and green waters, it is like a quiet and pleasant paradise. The villagers work at sunrise and rest at sunset, relying on a pair of industrious hands to manage a small but comfortable life, without contending with the world. Shizi used to travel to Tokyo, but she couldn't adapt to the fast-paced pace of the city after all, and finally returned to the old house where her mother was no longer there. She incorporated the thoughts of her mother and the love of her hometown into the food. Ordinary food belonging to the four seasons slowly opens in the cabin. "Little Forest" is divided into four series: spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each part presents us with a different experience.

01 accepts everything and takes seriously

Shizi is a person who loves life very much. She cooks seriously, treats friends, farms, and lives. In her yard, you can feel the vision of “seeing the flowers blooming in front of the court, looking at the clouds and the clouds in the sky”. The cabbage tempura in spring, the tender garlic in summer, the rice wine in autumn, and the steaming roasted sweet potatoes in winter all arouse our desire to taste. It turns out that life can be so self-sufficient and enjoyable. These are the fruits of Shizi's hard work.

This attitude of serious life is like singing in a song, even if you are not that strong, you must raise your voice.

02 Try to accept the imperfections of life

Ichiko’s friends complain that the boss has many shortcomings, which makes her feel very uncomfortable. The words of an old grandfather instantly made her realize. Grandpa said to her: "If you feel that your boss is treating you badly, then you are now complaining, talking behind his back, you are also shortcomings, you can accept your own point, why can't you accept others' shortcomings?" The words deeply hurt Shizi's friend, making her feel that life should try to accept all imperfections. Your attitude towards life determines your current height.

Life is not only fixed today, it is not only now. We all have to work hard. In many cases, the pros and cons are both sides, and you must bear the shortcomings if you want to be excellent.

03 To live up to the food is to live up to life

Shizi’s mother’s living habits and attitudes have a deep impact on her. Her mother once said to her: "Cooking can reflect a person's heart, so you must always pay attention." Since then, Ichiko has taken the food seriously every time, and has no meal prepared exquisitely. Really live a life of "one day, one person, three meals, four seasons". Grateful to nature for gifts and awe for food.

Life spirals like a spiral, life is like a circle, and always deviates from the circle at the end. On the surface, life is unchangeable every day, but in fact, it has different properties. However, in this way, the "circle life" day after day becomes the "spiral life" that determines thoughts and actions. The spiral process is always very long. When we are entangled in trivial matters, we can no longer let go, so we have lost the opportunity to choose life. However, life needs to be experienced in a lifetime. Everyone has different feelings and choices, whether right or wrong, but there is always a blank time in life to think about, to understand the unique beauty and food "taste "

The real craftsmen of our time are indeed Not much. An enviable job in Doujin every day may not be enough to support yourself at first. But there is a saying that goes well: It is not because you see hope that you insist, but you can see hope if you persist. There are many different ways of life. Only if you like the most in your heart is the most suitable. Ordinary, but not ordinary.

It turns out that we all yearn for such a life, without pretending. No matter how many bloody storms have happened here, today we can only wander around. The storm has come, you and I just listen.
