The Zen Diary

Humans are truly incredible creatures, enjoying the flavor in their mouths while turning over inexplicable past events and chewing on them along with their memories. Since what goes into the mouth comes from the earth, the mind turns over past experiences, and the ties of the land mellow the palate.

Life's impermanence is part of life's daily routine. Humming your favorite song, cooking your favorite food, letting go of your obsessions, and loosening the bonds to yourself is the only way to live comfortably and live freely.

It's hard to say whether the movie's positive or negative. Farewell is the ultimate theme of life, before saying goodbye to get rid of concerns, to go forward with a lighter load is powerlessness, is courage, is also a blessing.
