A bell, nine lives, a wandering epic about dignity and freedom.
It was once a treasure held in the hands of little girls, and it was also the only audience for urban white-collar workers late at night;
It once suffocated in an exquisite cage, and also ran wildly in the wind of the field;
It has witnessed the tears of life and death, and also experienced the blood of human greed.
This cat with a bronze bell hanging around its neck was forced to experience nine completely different fates over the long years. Every time one is loved, there is a more cruel abandonment; every time one is attached, there is a deeper disillusionment. The sound of the bell gradually became hoarse and heavy from a crisp and pleasing sound, and finally became stained with the blood of battle.
When the ninth farewell came, the old dog followed its memory and returned to the original alley.
Facing the hand extended by a new little girl with clear eyes - the temptation that once made her heart beat wildly - this old cat who had gone through many vicissitudes of life made a choice that all its "owners" unexpectedly made.
It slightly dodged the hand.
Because it finally understood:
Human company is only a temporary lodging, while loneliness is the eternal destination of the soul.
The memories engraved in the bell—the old man's porridge, the child's tears, the drunkard's song, the blood on the battlefield—are too rich, too heavy and too heavy to be easily owned or defined by anyone.
This is not only a wandering story of a cat, but also a mirror that reflects the warmth and coldness of the world, and a hymn dedicated to all independent souls.
In this era of longing to be loved and fearing loneliness, "A Stray Cat: My Bell Hidden Half of My Life"
