Status Updates From Khát vọng sống

Vincent went out to go paint somewhere that was a 2 hour walk away. While he was painting a girl spoke to him and he thought he’d gone mad. She said she’s loved him and has been following him for years. He couldn’t believe it. He vented to her. He fell asleep. Woke up alone and walked him in the dark. He got home and looked at the painting and was finally happy with it.

“Anh cũng yêu em, Margot,” Vincent nói. “Trước kia anh chưa biết điều đó, nhưng bây giờ anh biết rồi.”

Trời ơi, giá mà câu này được thốt ra vào cuối sách thì có phải là HE rồi không. Nhưng mà chỉ mới được non nửa, sao tôi thấy chẳng lành quá.

Vincent was painting outdoors a lot, but was unsatisfied with his work. He painted without thinking. He learned to make his own pigments. He met a prostitute minor. He met the postman Roulin. He moved out of his hotel room into a yellow house. He was writing Paul Gauguin who was in prison and needed to get out and find a place. Vincent got the idea that Paul should move in with him and they could make art together.

Vincent arrives in Arles and he loves it there. He sees how alive and vibrant the sun is here and how the colors around him are like nothing he’s ever seen before. He meets a journalist who warns him that the people are crazy and he should get out before something bad happens. Vincent decides to stay.

Vincent was chillin with a bunch of the impressionists and they decided they all should all start a club where they sell paintings and each earn money from it equally. Theo was going to manage. But Vincent got sick of the artists and club because he wasn’t painting anymore. He said it sucked being around a bunch of artists cause it made him realize he wasn’t that special. So he took off to Arles.
