Life is a game of chess that even they don't know, and no one wants to get their moves wrong, so every time they encounter a dilemma, everyone needs a relief grocery store written by Keigo Higashino.
In 2012, three young criminals on the go took refuge in a dilapidated grocery store to escape police pursuit. As long as the front door and back door of this grocery store are closed, time will stop, forming a time tunnel between the past and the present, three young people find a consultation letter from 1980 in the store, it turns out that this Langya grocery store will also relieve people's worries, troubled people will deliver the consultation letter into the store, driven by curiosity and empathy, three bad young people began to reply. So what follows is the story of a few 30 years ago, where the counselors were at the intersection of their lives. Because they all lived in 2012 and know a little about the historical and social events that have happened in the past, under the premeditated ending, young people with no goals in life can respond with wisdom.
Some say that Keigo Higashino used this book to encourage Japan, which has the highest suicide rate, not to be lost in fate.
Four stories from 30 years ago are full of contradictions between dreams and reality.
Athletes who are preparing to participate in the Olympics, in the face of their boyfriend's illness and day and night of exercises, struggle inside every day, do not know how to allocate time, both want to complete their dreams and accompany their lovers to the last road.
The three young men knew that Japan would not send athletes to that Olympics in the end.
So it is recommended that athletes give up practicing and spend time with their lovers.
In the end, the athlete did not give up practicing like the grocery store, but instead accompanied his lover while practicing.
In the end, she was not lost because she could not participate in the Olympics like other players, but instead she felt that she had paid 100% of her efforts before the competition, her lover died, the Olympics were gone, but her joy came from the process. Sometimes the success or failure of a dream or anything cannot be dominated by results, and if we can adjust our state of mind and let go of successes and failures, we will find that the bitterness of growing up seems to be more precious than awards.
Creators who have never met a talent run into a wall everywhere when realizing their dreams. Three young men learned that the creator had not been recognized during his lifetime, but that his songs would become classics for generations after his death.
Young people encourage frustrated singer-songwriters to have confidence in themselves in any situation. The singer-songwriter also remembers this encouragement on his deathbed. In fact, everyone's dream may not come true, and when they stumble, everyone must continue to believe in themselves and continue to improve.
A young man who wants to escape from debt with his family is disappointed in his parents and does not feel the love of his parents. Suddenly, he resolutely left his parents. Growing up alone in an orphanage.
In the end, he has his own piece of the sky, has always thought that his future is his own, and after growing up, he learned that the chance of survival he has today is fulfilled by his parents.
Being shocked to realize that what you have been aware of is not the whole truth. In fact, I misjudged the chess game.
The girl who shoulders the financial burden, in order to support her family, chooses to be a lady in the hotel to make quick money, under the guidance of the youth, the girl learned to invest, and after thirty years, she got the wealth, but forgot the original intention of kindness. This world is so wonderful, life is like a river, everything will return to the river, it turns out that this once lost girl is the rich man who wants to buy the Marukoen orphanage, and the lost young man who teaches the girl to be rich is the boy who robbed her family.
The story is interlocked, and all the counselors revolve around the Marukoen Orphanage and the Nanaya Grocery Store.
Past and present lives are intertwined.
I think of a song by Doris Day by Que Sera Sera, the naïve daughter asks mom what will happen to me in the future and mom says the future is unpredictable, whatever will be, will be.
Everyone is full of hope for life, but the fate is not up to us to choose, the process is always a little difficult, a lot of unavoidable, the original we are a blank piece of paper, in the face of the complex world, we learn to be sad.
At the intersection of life, we will be overwhelmed, and when we need to relieve the grocery store, we must remember Grandpa Langya's last opinion:
"Just because you're a blank piece of paper, you can draw any map, and everything is in your own hands." You are free and full of endless possibilities. That's great stuff. I sincerely pray that you can believe in yourself and burn your life without regrets. ”
Thank you for reading, I hope to have a concern to support a ha.
