Stay still in the Neverland Fairytales are not for children, but for adults. When I was a little kid, Peter Pan and his Neverland was just some vague images of some story; as I grow up, every time I reread this book, I feel myself in a brand new parallel world, or, my current mind, catalyzed by the tale, create a new parallel universe. I have been familiar with the concept “death” for a fairly long time. And in the tale, this concept has been mentioned several times. Peter avoids death by stopping his time, or, he imagines that he stops his time. And to some extent, maybe this manipulation has been implanted in my mind for a long time. Of course, the other possibility is, every child has the aptitude to pretend. I fear Death, as most people do. I have tried to avoid thinking about that, just to find how impossible it is. Maybe that is a reason every time I hear the word “heartless”, I feel a strong impulse to wail. “When you are heartless, you can fly. ” I never think this statement naïve. But maybe for most of the time, people just misinterpret the concept “heartlessness”. When I was a teenager, I had a strong impulse to destroy, I thought that was what “heartlessness” means. But gradually, I realize that maybe we are not born destructive or offensive, just because some wounds have accumulated in our subconscious without being noticed and hence cured. For the past years, I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting things I’ve been through, and trying to understand the world, as well as humanity, gradually, I get composed. There’s nothing worth fear, except Death. Nevertheless, Death itself is inevitable, so to fear it is actually fruitless. So I become fearless. Fearlessness means power. I used to quote the cliché “how I wish this moment could last forever”. And now, I tend to say “well, this moment is appreciable, and thank god I’m now feeling it.” Instead of taking pictures with a camera, I use my eyes and soul to seize the moment, and I know everything that I have felt with heart, will leave some trace in me, and that’s a pious way to appreciate. And in the end, I become a Peter Pan. Where are you from? I’m from all that I have experienced. Where are you going? I’m going to feel the present, with gratitude.
