How much can a man grow in a few days?

Matt said goodbye to his wife before her deathbed,

Good bye, my love, my friend, my pain, my joy, good bye...

He gently kissed her lips She looked like a corpse without the tube.

What would that feel like? Saying goodbye to this person who has been with you for half a lifetime, has children with you, but feels that you are drifting away, "Goodbye, we won't see each other again in this life" such a goodbye. To complicate things even more, you find that this dying man lying in a hospital bed with no mobility has slapped you so hard—she betrayed you and fell in love with someone else.

If the pains of life can be easily categorized, I think God gave this man a taste of all the major categories in just a few days. The pain of bereavement, the anger and sadness of being betrayed and abandoned, the helplessness in the face of the rebellion of the children, the anxiety caused by the conflict between the inner voice and the will of the family group.

There are two scenes of the hero running in the movie. It's like chasing hard, but also escaping powerlessly. Chase is to ask God for an explanation, escape is that there is no exit from either side, and it is about to be overwhelmed.

The wife's lover's wife cried in front of the hospital bed. After he sent her away, he walked to the bed, said goodbye to her like an adult, and said what she really meant to him. She was his love, his friend, his pain, his joy, and now, her part of his life was coming to an end. So he said goodbye to her, to the meaning of life she represented. When I saw this, there was a sense of order returning after the great chaos, as if the early morning fog had dissipated a little, and the outline of the road reappeared.
