昨晚看MAD MEN S7E6 The Strategy最后一幕,Don和Peggy一起在周日工作,合作推翻原来的汉堡王广告的策略。peggy问,那些幸福的吃饭时互相望着对方而不是电视的家庭,你见过吗?Don想起自己和妻子分离崩析的婚姻和各怀鬼胎的早餐。Peggy说,我们要把广告在餐厅里拍。有一个地方,温暖而明亮,有你和你的家人,没有电视,只有彼此。在这里,你不是孤独的。夜里7点,我看着自己桌上的面包和奶油奶酪,突然失声痛哭。

此时此刻广播里响起的音乐又是Sinatra的my way。Peggy和don两个人都背负着不愿意被人知道的过去,都经历过职场的浮浮沉沉。Don咽下的是常人不能忍受的苦楚,Peggy每日面对的是无处不在的偏见和性别歧视,两个人在音乐里互相拥抱着对方,翩翩起舞。这两周经历了这么多痛苦,昨晚却是第一次哭出来,这段歌词让我在痛苦中又生出许多力量。
Yes, there were times I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
