Su Nian's life collapsed one night when he worked overtime until two in the morning.
The project was robbed, the boss had an affair, her mother urged her to get married, and her blind date said she had "too strong a personality to get married" - she stood in front of the company's floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the still brightly lit Beijing, and suddenly she didn't recognize herself in the mirror.
A ticket, a push, a place called "Baisha Ancient Town".
She just wanted to catch her breath. Just a week.
But she met Axia.
A man who posts fungi, a man who repairs chairs, a man who says, "What is anxiety? A disease of city people?"
He takes her to see migratory birds and tells her that "stopping is not failure";
He led the horse and led her through the foot of the snow-capped mountains and said, "Your troubles are very small in front of it";
He listened quietly by the campfire to her saying, "I don't know what I want," and then said—
"You've come a long way, but you've never asked where you want to go. You can ask now."
Su Nian thought she came to Yunnan to escape.
Later she found out that she wanted to meet him.
This is not a "give up everything for love" story.
This is a story of "finding yourself".
It just happened that on the way to finding herself, she also found him.
Where the clouds rest, peace of mind is the home.
Intention: Sometimes leaving is not to escape but to find a better self
