Kiki's Delivery Service

After watching this movie, I have many thoughts. This is a film about growth, and as we grow up, we inevitably lose our original innocence. In the process of growing up, we gain many things, but we also lose many things.

From high school to university and then to graduate school in the United States, eight years have passed, and I have gradually grown from a child to an adult. Many things have happened during these eight years. I have lost a lot, but I have also gained a lot. Sometimes, when I calm down and think about the road I’ve traveled, I feel that this journey has been really long. Like Kiki, as I keep moving forward, I have lost some people and let go of many warm and sunny mornings.

Kiki and I are similar in that we both started new lives in completely new places. Leaving our own homes and moving to an unfamiliar country, we naturally encounter various difficulties. When we start our new lives, many things don’t go as smoothly as we expect, and we will encounter many difficulties and setbacks, just like Kiki. However, as long as we persevere and work hard, we can overcome these obstacles.

It has been eight months since I came to the United States, and during this time, I have encountered many challenges. Sometimes I feel confused, just like Kiki, and the things I used to be good at suddenly don’t work as well as they used to, as if my magic has disappeared.

Later, I realized that my magic hadn’t actually disappeared; I just hadn’t made enough effort and hadn’t fully adapted to life here. Now, I have slowly adapted to living alone in a foreign country, carefully and meticulously managing my life.

There are times when everyone feels like they can’t go on, and getting anxious doesn’t help. Before I can regain my inspiration, I might need to take a break.

I hope I can be a little braver and more persistent. When the mountains seem insurmountable and the road ahead is uncertain, there may still be a bright village waiting for us just beyond the horizon.

I really love this movie.

The above is an explanation for why I haven’t written a new blog post or created any new work in the past five months.
