Life is a loop, we are constantly circling between experiencing and understanding. — Lessons from movies
Arrival
Ted Chiang
The sci-fi novel written by Ted used a lot of mythologies of god and ancient cultures to try to tell us some information about life. I would share three stories which has inspired me the most.
The first one, chapter 4th, Stories of Your Life and Others, was also the one which was adapted to a movie, Arrival. Louise was a linguist who was asked to make communication with aliens which had suddenly arrive on the earth. She tried sound and writing vocabularies to explain every information the army want her to pass to them. During the procession, she gradually understood the words those aliens used and found the important meanings behind the design of their words.

During the procession, she gradually understood the words those aliens used and found the important meanings behind the design of their words.
Through the new languages, Louis could surprisingly see her future of getting married with the physician now she worked together and born a daughter but she would died in her 25. Louis was so brave to make the same decision though she still knew she would lose her daughter. Because the formula of the alien words told her that the past, present and future were not a line, they were actually a circle which connect our whole life. It is said by Søren Kierkegaard that you have to look forwards if you want to experience life, while you should look backwards in order to understand life.
The request for that meeting was perhaps the second most momentous phone call in my life. The first, of course, will be the one of Mountain Rescue. At that point your dad and I will be speaking to each other maybe once a year, tops. After I get the phone call, though, the first thing I’ll do will be to call your father. He and I will drive out together to perform the identification, a long silent car ride. I remember the morgue, all tile and stainless steel, the hum of refrigeration and smell of antiseptic.
In my opinion, I consider the name Arrival of the book was not only mean the arrival of aliens, also of every human life in the world. It was such a mature and great decision of Louis to follow her destination instead of avoiding the tragedy happening when she had already known her future.

外星人「七腳族」的太空船有一天突然出現在世界各地，當天晚上，軍方就找上了一位語言學教授露易絲、和一位科學家伊恩，希望他們能幫忙解讀外星人的文字，隨著露易絲越來越了解七腳族的語言(Heptapod B)，他也逐漸看到了一些奇怪的回憶。
電影的關鍵是薩皮爾．沃夫提出的假設理論(Sapir-Whorf
在抹去了確切時間和背景的景框裡，語言學家的視角是田野式的、雙向地與新型態的語言溝通、引發時間感知的共振。記憶在新的時間觀裡，不再只是固化過的往昔，而是成為生命星叢（konstellation）裡與當下、未來相互輝映、指引的要素。
感覺滿複雜的，會來找我占卜的一般人其實比例還好。應該說不知道為什麼其他我不熟的占卜師會想到來找我占卜，因為我通常對於對分只有很薄的印象，就是那種「這個人我好像在誰那邊看過」但完全沒有跟對方說話過。
今天來的也是這樣的人，感覺就是走靈氣（？）感應路線，自己也有接受委託的占卜師。
她在你想睡的時候擋在你面前
不要多想，那只是女生天生動物性地想感受男生的疲累
這也太難解了，男生疲累時有什麼氣場好感受的?
但那確實是值得玩味的地方
她對你一點心思都沒有，不要再想了
雖然很動物性
動搖
最近，反Unreal的聲音一直在我耳邊出現。
他們的聲音不外乎是，沒有人在意App的穩定度啦，遊戲不需要那麼炫的效果和效能啦，找Unity的人很好找啦，授權太貴了啊等等。講到我真的是都有點動搖了…
大女兒line我：「Why is life so hard?」
大女兒決定今年這個暑假在學校修兩個學分的實驗課，試驗室裡的日子沒有定時的三餐，早起進實驗室，晚上伴著星光回宿舍時，常連晚餐都沒處買，只好以「全家」為家.....
