If tomorrow is the next life!
Do you believe in the next life? That is what we often call the next life. "In the next life, we will definitely meet!" "In the next life, I hope we can be together." "In the next life, we will still be best friends." "In the next life, I will still be your daughter!" "In the next life, I will love you well."...
How do you feel when you hear these words?
I recently heard a song "If Tomorrow Is the Next Life" performed by the Shanghai Rainbow Chamber Choir, and I suddenly wanted to share it with you.
The original version of this chorus piece comes from the National Taiwan University Chorus. In July 2019, at the Shanghai Rainbow Chamber Choir’s special concert, conductor Jin Chengzhi led the choir to temporarily perform this piece in memory of his lost friend, Gao Zhifan, a post-90s conductor from Xiamen No. 6 Middle School. Give music to those who make music.
Listening to it now, it is still touching!
"When impermanence is pronounced, has your heart returned home?" Hearing these lyrics, I can't help but think of the MU5735 air crash on March 21 this year. A China Eastern Airlines plane crashed in Teng County, Guangxi. After tens of thousands of people searched and rescued the aircraft on site, it was confirmed on March 26 that all 132 people on board the flight were killed.
When I heard the news, I could not calm down for a long time.
Looking back on Weibo, WeChat Moments, Zhihu and other major platforms during that period, people often began to express their feelings about life while grieving. Most of them were reminding themselves and those around them: Cherish every day, cherish every day. The person in front of you.
On that day, in just 3 minutes when the plane dropped sharply from more than 8,000 meters, no one would know what worries, expectations and regrets they had on the plane in the face of such sudden changes. . And those waiting for them to return home will also bear the sudden loss. Their lives changed at that moment.
The people who have passed away are gone forever, and the people left behind still have to move forward in pain. We often say that time is the medicine that heals everything, but only those who have experienced the process can truly understand its suffering!
"If tomorrow is your next life, how will you spend today?" These lyrics come with the sound of piano and the chorus, as if there is an elder sitting next to you and listening to you. While whispering, I ask you over and over again: "If tomorrow is your next life, how will you spend today?"
Things are unpredictable and life is helpless. You never know who will come first, tomorrow or accident. By your side! You never know if the person you were talking to just a second ago will have a chance to meet again!
Maybe you are still chatting about your parents’ feud this morning, maybe you have just had a quarrel and are still in the cold war, maybe you are happily planning your married life, maybe you are discussing where to travel next, maybe She is going to fly to your city to give you a surprise. Maybe you are on a business trip for work...
Maybe, suddenly there is no possibility.
No matter how mediocre or rich you live, they are nothing compared to living a healthy life! I want to believe in the next life, but none of us can see ourselves or others in the next life. All we can do is to live a good life!
If tomorrow is the next life, I hope you treat the last day of this life well; if tomorrow is the next life, I hope you can say goodbye well; if tomorrow is the next life, do what you want to say and do as soon as possible ; If tomorrow is the next life, may we live well today! Love bravely!
