Weather Man metaphor

Weather Man, the movie I watched last year, when I watched it, I felt that it was about the sadness of middle-aged people, and I needed to make some efforts to avoid it in the future. Now, it seems like a metaphor

for a TV station weatherman, who has an easy job and a good income. , The seemingly leisurely life is filled with the helplessness of middle-aged people.

His wife divorced him because of their relationship. His

daughter was discriminated against in school because of his obesity. He was unhappy every day

. His father, the most proud father, was named a former Pulitzer Prize winner by President Nixon and was found The cancer has reached its terminal stage, and what is even more helpless is that his father has been very disappointed with his son who is self-sufficient in the position of weather forecaster,

and the job that has brought him a lot has made him a lot more. The target of angry jealous people--Walking on the road, there are often whole cups of coffee and sticky apple pie flying in the face. When a



person reaches middle age, when a crisis strikes, it is natural to bridge the gap and change the status quo.

He tried his best to make up for his ex-wife. Who knew that his ex-wife had remarried,

he took his daughter to learn archery, who knew that her daughter was not interested, so in order not to waste the tuition fees he paid, he had to carry a quiver on his own and walk the streets of the city every day, going to the club. On the way

, he accompanied his father to visit famous doctors all over the country, but it was still to no avail. His father's idea - to organize a living funeral for his father in advance - made him even more sad. He tried hard



not There was a turning point

at his father's funeral. When he saw his ex-wife and his future husband standing closely together, he was angry and raised a bow and arrow to the man, but the responsibility of a mature man forced him to rationally avoid the arrow from falling off the string

. With a quiver, he suddenly found that archery had become an indispensable part of his life. With daily practice, his arrows approached the bullseye.

His father finally left. At the real funeral, his mother told him: "Your father said Now, on the last journey of your life with you, he suddenly found himself so proud of his son."
At the end of the film, the weatherman sitting in the car waiting for the red light to turn green is tapped on the shoulder with a hand reaching into the car window - this used to be almost a precursor to the arrival of a cup of coffee or an apple pie, and he turned his head alertly. , what I saw was a thumbs up from a weather forecaster. After the



story is told, the crisis of middle age actually runs through our entire life, but it appears in different names - love blizzard, shattered dream , job unemployment. . . . . . .

What is the reason for the difficulties in life?

We have so many parents who love you, close friends who care about you, and classmates who encourage you. . . . . .

Our pursuit is so ambitious, but the person you love is out of reach, the success of your career, and the realization of your dreams. . . . . . .



Ask yourself, do you repay your parents who love you with the same love every day? Even if you only love your parents half as much as you love that distant person now, have you done it?

Do you always care about your close friends? Even if you take up a little time of your pursuit of career success, ask your friends about the current situation, have you done it?

Are you really looking forward to encouraging your classmates to make the same dream come true as you? . . . . . . . . . . . . When



the person you love abandons you, your career collapses, your dreams are hopeless, and you start complaining, why am I so unhappy? So unlucky? So bad luck? Don't forget, your responsibilities, your interests, and the people who care for you are still there, paying for you, cheering for you, never complaining or having excessive expectations. Like the weatherman in the movie, he fell in love with archery, wiped out his bad temper, and won the approval of his father.

This is a metaphor, we are pursuing our dreams, which is good. While pursuing our dreams, we are learning along the way. I improved myself along the way, learned a lot of things I never imagined I would learn, won a lot of unexpected friends, and maybe my dream really didn't come true. . . . . . . . . . .
