How do you describe love in the '80s?

No desire and no desire to achieve all natural love

When I talk about "love" at the age of 19, I can only be regarded as a childish face. There is no puppy love, no first love, no ambiguity, and naturally there is no love. Can only say that I am a "expect" Plato type love, from now to the once upon a time, I did not encounter too me is perfect individual, I can understand, but still can't do tolerance and accommodation of the eternal, although everything seems to be is my "wishful thinking" unilateral idea, but I always questioned how two individuals together, And have depended on each other for half a lifetime or more... I think this lack of confidence and uncertainty about the future is a big reason for the emergence of marriage phobes. The reason why Mr. Zheng's Love in the 1980s does not have a perfect romantic ending is that I think this "lack of confidence" and "fear of the unknown" are accomplices. The age can suppress people's growth, growth can suppress people's thoughts, and thoughts can suppress the burst of love.

From the spermatocyte that does not know fate moves toward, arrive two individual newborn that do not implicate each other, all the way clutch and match interweave achievement a paragraph of marriage. Do not blaspheme love, do not regard love as a kind of play, really will find it is a kind of magical existence. From the youth animation and youth idol drama in a variety of young people began to know love, grow up a little, then began to pay attention to the love of parents, now, more want to understand the grandfather and grandmother, their older generation of love. My grandmother, who is now in her 80s, got married half a century ago. About her marriage, she only told me: "The matchmaker introduced me, and we met once across the river, and it was done." Just the opposite side of the river, the two people contributed to a family, this kind of marriage, this kind of love can be said to be hasty, can also be said to be simple, simple, compared with the free love of parents, I do not feel that the love of grandparents is any inferior. Therefore, for me, the truly touching love is not how romantic the encounter is, how luxurious the wedding is, or how sad the ending is, but when we are together, we love each other deeply, respect each other and are responsible for each other.

In the 80 s, the whole world like crazy, began to expand, peace and freedom breathing corner back way for survival is the most hard, used to be eager to, is now eager to "comeback", hurrying to is left over from history condition, the government is "a flow", changeable, save for a rainy day must be on, may be this is not safe, This insecure environment has shaken the roots of love.

The love of the 1980s, Yubo and Liwen's love, after all, still disappeared in the roaring waves. Love but dare not show, know each other but do not dare to step forward, embrace each other but do not dare to kiss passionately, this kind of enduring love can not escape the tragedy of mutual swallowing and destruction. Accompanied by the mountain, the dark shadow under the sunset is singing, the soul of The Times is breaking free, trapped in the mountain but get the freedom and relief of wandering, but the soul baptized by the thought of "self-sacrifice achievement of others, achievement of the collective" is always tied to the choice. Liwen want to achieve a great man like the success of Yubo, Yubo want to find a quiet beautiful Luanxiang, each other do not want to hurt each other in the imaginary, each other dare not step into the imaginary boundaries, this kind of love makes people anxious, let people hate and regret, but let people dare not ridicule or disdain. Upon reflection, I am still not sure whether it is this deformed age that has cut off crazy ideas, or whether it is personal restraint that has suppressed the courage and confidence of embracing.

I have been obsessed with this story for ten years, and the truth or fiction has gradually become a part of the memory in the constant questioning. Yes, is the memory, so that I gradually understand the real intention of this story, is to recall that vaguely does not exist in the era.

Obviously, the author blames The Times for this incomplete love. However, I think that every era has its own unique link between the past and the future. The deformed 1980s were not isolated or created out of nothing. Without the promotion of individuals and deformed individuals, how could it be built into a large deformed whole? While reflecting on the injustice and tragedy inflicted on individuals by the Great Age, we should also recognize that individuals are the creators of the Dark Age.

Only belong to the good of two people after all, there is no good in the time of destruction. Once we think that it is external factors that tear each other apart, who will have the courage to blame internal factors for the breakup? A deformed era destroyed too many things, so much that can be included into the word "everything", no one can change the time, all this has become the past.
