Unable to accept Bobbi's death, Cheryl fell into the abyss, punished herself in every way possible, drugged herself, had sex with all kinds of people, got pregnant, had an abortion, and pulled herself out of intimacy with her husband until" Get a divorce." You can't imagine how someone could hate and abuse themselves so much. We may find clues in the movie.
As a child, Cheryl's alcoholic father often beat his mother when he was drunk, and after temporarily escaping the stormy beating, Cheryl has to take care of his injured mother, which is repeated many times in countless flashbacks. A little girl in pajamas in a pharmacy runs anxiously and sadly, holding disinfectant and cotton. She kept tears for her mother to wipe the wound. A 7- or 8-year-old girl can't understand the world of adults. All she can see is violence and wounds. She blamed herself for not having the strength to protect the people she loved. This self-blame has been growing physically and became her pain body. After her mother's death, she broke out completely. She had sex with all the men who flirted with her, vented her hatred for her father and even all men in an extremely twisted way, and used more pain to cover up the pain of losing her mother.
Until one day, Cheryl was exhausted and accompanied by the music Give me a reason to love you, give me a reason to be a woman... She started her own redemption.
After falling to the bottom, maybe you will find that in the depths of your heart there is always a joyful, peaceful and quiet self who is full of strength and indestructible. When the acquired family, love, and achievements collapse one by one, the greed, fear, and desire that grow in order to maintain these things will no longer have a place to live. You are alone and have nothing to lose, and fear will disappear. , the true self is slowly discovered, it emerges tenderly with courage, compassion and forgiveness.
Cheryl stepped onto the Pacific Roof Trail and began to heal herself along the way.
The Pacific Crest Trail is a 4,286-kilometer hiking trail that runs through the western wilderness of the United States. It passes through California, Oregon and Washington on the west coast of the United States, from the lowest point near sea level , to the highest point of 13,153 feet (4,009 meters), passing through 25 national forests and 7 national parks. The trail ends in the town of Chester in northern California. Every year, starting in April, about 300 people set off from the Mexican border in an attempt to make it all the way, with about 180 of them successfully reaching the Canadian border in late September or early October.
