Reflections on the documentary “Fortune Telling

Fortune-telling, homecoming as a clue, come to his fortune-telling bottom of the people oral, at first it is to open a massage parlor to count marriages, by the way, a heartbreaking past, the massage parlor daily fights, collect little girls as well as drunkenly spit out the truth. Fortune-telling is a clever mouth is one aspect, more important is the insight into human nature. Whether he is accurate or not depends on how good his insight is.
People at the bottom of the ladder can find only limited ways out of life. The crippled and blind can still do massage, but when they are old and physically weak, they can only tell fortunes. I think of a cataract old man in my hometown, from the nineties onwards has been pedaling yellow buses to earn some living expenses, I feel that at that time he was about seventy, full of short inches of white hair, often see him bowed back to ride uphill on the road, glistening beads of sweat dripping from the chin, a little conscience of the uphill road down to go by themselves, more people are sitting down and not moving. He really can not do, I saw him sitting in front of the City God Temple to give people fortune-telling divination, estimated to have eighty. Eighty-year-old people still want to come out and set up stalls to tell fortunes, certainly not because of the accuracy of the calculation, it is to get a meal.
Having said that, even at their 60s, even if they are mentally retarded, they still have a need for sex. Sexual needs are the driving force behind the reproduction of the species, and people still retain that desire even when they are old, so don't always portray it as filthy, we usually don't pay attention to it, and society as a whole chooses to ignore it, which is why many parks have become venues for elderly people's sex trade. Their future lives are unknown to anyone, and fortune-telling won't be able to tell them, nor will anyone pay attention to them anymore.
