Kobe's extraordinary life ended in a way that stunned everyone.

  There is a classic line in the movie "Coco": "The real death is that no one in the world remembers you." It is gratifying that after Kobe left, people will always say the same thing in the days related to him. think of him.

But when life comes to an abrupt end, when the body returns to dust, how should we remember him?

  Looking at Vanessa's social media, it can be seen that she and the children are trying to get out of the shadow of the disaster.

She took the children to Disneyland, attended charity dinners, and attended friends' birthday parties... Life seemed to be back to the original track.

The dead are long gone, and the living are often mourned.

In the seemingly peaceful days, Kobe's shadow is everywhere.

His family's memory of him has only increased with the passage of time.

  On Kobe's birthday, Vanessa posted a photo of them when they were young.

Bryant is wearing his 2009 championship T-shirt, with a beaming Vanessa snuggled up in his arms.

At that time, their future was bright.

  After retiring, the focus of Kobe's life gradually turned to his family.

He also tried many different things: winning an Oscar, entering the Mamba Academy, passing on his valuable experience to more young people...

  Vanessa once said: "My husband has worked in the basketball career he loves for 20 years. He has given everything. For the rest of his life, the only thing he wants to do is to be with his beloved daughter and wife. He wants to witness with his own eyes. Every milestone. But after retiring, he only enjoyed this time for 3 years and 9 months."

  In a blink of an eye, it has been three years since Kobe left, and the hustle and bustle that accompanied the accident has gradually faded away.

Kobe wore the No. 24 jersey for the first time, without the company of his friend O'Neal, and led the team to the championship. At the same time, he also won the Finals MVP for the first time.

  In the days without Kobe, Vanessa continued to tell the legend of the "Black Mamba" in the name of Kobe.

She learned to take over the huge business empire left by Kobe. The "little woman" who once hid behind Kobe began to come to the stage, not only sheltering her family from wind and rain, but also fulfilling her husband's unfinished blueprint dream.

  Haruki Murakami wrote in "Norwegian Wood" that death is not the opposite of life, but exists as part of it.

Since death is a part of life, reconciliation with death is especially important for the living.

  The dead are dead, and so are the living.

No matter how suffocating and heart-wrenching that dark night was, life had to move on.

As time goes by, Kobe's voice and smile may gradually fade, but he and the basketball he loves have become an inseparable part of many people's lives.

His experience and deeds will also give more people the courage to pursue their dreams.

  It starts with basketball, but it goes beyond basketball.

Forty-one years have been like a dream, and the memories he left behind are enough to make those who never forget, like him, go forward in the difficult years.
