very nice! Of all the movies about how to spend the last days, "The Last Holiday" is my favorite! From time to time, I will look it up and tell myself, don't wait, some dreams will come true soon! Be bold, some worries are superfluous!

The film tells the story of a saleswoman who sells kitchen utensils in a department store, Miss Bird, a chubby black lady, who bruised her head in an accident, and then a tumor was detected. After being told by the doctor that she had only three weeks to live, she How did you spend your last time?

In this type of film, the most favorite way is to use contrast, to tell us, who are busy and numb in life, what is the most important thing in life, and what ideas need to be changed.

01 Don't wait, some dreams will come true soon!

"You wait and wait, wait for something big to happen...and find out that you're dying...I should have eaten this, I should have eaten all of this, and now I'll never have a chance to go to KV town..." Byrd When the young lady found out that she had a tumor, she flipped through her dream notebook and muttered to herself.

Miss Bird has a dream photo album with wedding photos of her and her dream lover, cut from the company's magazine; celebrity chefs she likes; tourist destinations she likes; All kinds of dishes she likes... She put them all in, a full book, she said that these are things that may have happened yet. She had a dream, but she didn't act. Even if the lover in her dream was a colleague she saw every day, she didn't dare to step out. In order to strike up a conversation with him, she bought a lot of kitchen utensils that could not be used. As she said, she is waiting, maybe waiting for herself to become thinner and more beautiful, waiting for herself to have time, waiting... everything will come naturally?

Three weeks seems to be enough to realize your dream, otherwise what else do you want to do? Work? fall in love? Go to hell. After reading it, I want to say don't wait, don't wait until you have to hurry to realize your dreams, don't wait until you don't have time to realize your dreams, who knows, when accidents and diseases will come?

We have dreams, we chase dreams, we are chasing dreams with self-discipline, living like a donkey pulling a mill, chasing the carrot hanging in front of us. I think this is possible, we need to pull the grinder but we also have to eat the small carrots constantly, it doesn't matter if the big carrots are eaten slowly. I can't go to Europe for the time being. I can first go to the European towns in the next city. I can go to the places I want to go in China. We need to realize our dreams one by one on the way to pursue our dreams.

I am a mother of two children, the older one is two years old and the younger is eight months old. I always say to myself, what will I do when they grow up, I have a lot of things I plan to wait for her siblings to grow up I did it when I was older, and now I feel like I was wrong, I can still do it now. I don't need to wait for them to grow up before I clean up and make myself beautiful, I don't need to wait for them to grow up to go to the cinema, I don't need to wait for them to grow up to do what I'm interested in... I can now!

02 Live boldly, some concerns are superfluous!

"I never could have imagined that I would spend the rest of my life in such a beautiful place. And do so many things I was afraid to do before. I wasted so much time I was afraid to say what I wanted to say, maybe because of fear, you guys I know that kind of concern. You keep your head down and keep backing away, and suddenly one day you look up at the sky and think, how did I get to this point? How could it be? In fact, many of the things we worry about in life are not worth worrying about ."

What kind of person is Miss Bird? There is such a scene in the film. Miss Bird is a sales clerk in a department store selling kitchen utensils. Her hobby is cooking and gourmet food. When the old man and lady who came to the mall to see her cooking make food, her boss Adam told her not to cook food for these beggars again, if you also consider your future here. At that time, even if Miss Bird felt that she was right, she did not fight for it and chose to swallow her anger, a living humble ordinary person. If I live like this, even if I live to be 120 years old, I don't want to take another look.

But after learning that she was ill, the real Miss Bird seemed to be coming back to life.

After learning that she was ill, the first thing she did was to go to her boss Adam's office, fix him, and tell him that her mother quit her job. This time it was Adam's turn to beg her not to leave, because Byrd Is his best sales employee.

On the plane to KV town, the big man in the front row complained to the stewardess that Miss Bird would not let him lean back in the seat. The stewardess asked Miss Bird, regardless of whether it was a matter of time or another: Do you mind if this gentleman puts his seat back? Is the seat back? Choose soft persimmons. Who would have thought that Miss Bird would refuse: mind.

She took out all her savings and the funds her mother left her, she flew first class; after getting off the plane, because there were too many people waiting for the taxi, she took a helicopter to the hotel; she stayed in the presidential suite for $4,000 a night; she ordered Cooked all the dishes of the day from her favorite chef, Chef Didia; she was told before bungee jumping that many people were killed here but she still flew down like a bird and the former boss who was competing with her took off her bungee jumping suit and escaped; she Skiing for the first time, but skating like a world champion and rushing forward as long as there is a front... Live freely and freely, but live as a role model in the eyes of others.

Many of the things in life we ​​worry about are not worth worrying about at all. We are worried that we will not be able to defend our legitimate rights and interests; we are worried that we will be fired if we contradict the boss and say our innermost thoughts; we are worried that others will make irresponsible remarks by rejecting others; looks like.

But will we change our behavior because of a movie? In the movie you watched, although everyone from the councilor to the mayor to the hotel waiter was infected by Miss Bird's behavior, how many do you think really changed themselves? There is only one, and that is Karagan's little lover, who is also desperate. Before that, she was afraid of changing, looking forward to Karagan's promise to divorce his wife, and worried that she would not be able to find a job after leaving Karagan, because she She didn't even finish reading the book. She had a lot of "concerns" that kept her from moving forward. In the end, she bravely left Kara and me and went back to read again.

If I have concerns in the future, think about Miss Bird, if I only have three weeks to live, will I still worry about the things I worry about?

This is a comedy, so the last thing about getting sick was a false alarm, it was a problem with the machine, it was a misdiagnosis, this is the best result, that is, I have said everything that should be said, and then I can still laugh and be lonely, I recommend it to you!
