It's a pity that this movie was also viewed as a series by me - it took me three divisions to watch it.
The outline of the story is that a person has the ability to go back to the past after a car accident. When the protagonist Nick first went back to the past, he felt that as long as everyone was still alive, this would be the best result, but soon, he was not satisfied. And then, he thought it would be better if he just went back to his boss before he got promoted, and he broke up with his girlfriend and got another woman beside him, and his best friend He died, and his ex-girlfriend died trying to block the bullet for him. He went back to the past again, trying to correct his mistakes. In order to stop everything from happening, he chose to commit suicide. The last scene of the film is his girlfriend holding him. His son - his girlfriend gave birth to posthumous son Nick Jr., who looked at the photo - inherited his dad's ability to travel back in time and seemed to herald the beginning of another tragedy.
Regret is an emotion that almost everyone experiences, and we often say to ourselves, "If only I hadn't done that and..." Even if you are given a chance to go back in time, it may not be all right, but it may make things worse. Or, even if it is not as bad as it was then, we will still not be satisfied, and we will have all kinds of new regrets.
While going back to the past in the film brings only more disasters, if one of us could have such a choice, a few of us could resist the temptation to go back and fix the one we seem unforgivable guilty? How many of us can use this ability without greed to go back to the past again and again to correct mistakes?
Are those that we seem to be the perfect choice in hindsight really the so-called perfect choice? Would it have really made life more perfect if we had chosen another path at the time? Or will it be worse? Who can predict?
Of course we don't have the ability to go back to the past, and fortunately no one has this ability, otherwise the world would be so funny - you have worked hard for a long time to get a promotion opportunity, and when you are fortunate, I found you It went back to the hard work at the time, because someone who competed with you felt that he didn’t work hard enough to prevent him from getting this opportunity, so he used the ability to go back to the past, you have to accompany him again, and it is possible to get a promotion this time It's him and not you; when you grow to 18, you suddenly find yourself disappearing because your mother regrets that she should not have chosen your father but another man who is now famous; when you...
Is it scary?
Personally, I've worked really hard now to reduce the chance of regret - I try my best to ask myself one more time before making each choice: Is this the only choice I can make. If you still make that choice when you're done asking yourself this question, then there's nothing to regret. When I look back on this in the future, I will tell myself that even if I go back to that time, under the circumstances at that time, I would still make such a choice, then, there is nothing to regret.
In fact, what really makes us regret are those decisions made inadvertently or without careful consideration. Such decisions, we can only tell ourselves - this is fate, this is God's will. to comfort yourself.
In fact, I would rather attribute such behaviors to providence--isn't the so-called providence should refer to such behaviors that have no reason but lead to some result?
It turned out that I was very unbelieving in fate, and was complacent about it - I remember very clearly that in the year of the college entrance examination, at my old aunt's house, someone told me fortune. So in the third year of high school, I worked very hard, and finally got a score that was nearly 30 points higher than my usual score and came to Black University. At that time, I didn't despise it in my heart, fortune-telling? What is the fate? Didn't I just pass the exam?
But now my feeling is completely different. If I succeeded in the postgraduate entrance examination in 2006, then there is no hope for my brother and sister to be civil servants, and it is impossible for me to be public funds, and the major I chose at that time was civil and commercial law, but, no, So I became a criminal law major, and my brother and sister went to work as civil servants—isn't that fate?
We change our destiny through hard work, but who knows, whether hard work itself is counted in destiny? Is it fate that I have to start working hard in that year? Was it destined that I would encounter such a prophecy that I could not pass the test at that time to inspire my efforts?
There will never be answers to these questions, but no matter what, even if the effort itself is counted in destiny, it is still clear that if you don't work hard, you will get another way, and even if you encounter some things that seem very difficult at the time Unlucky things do not mean that they are extremely bad - as the Chinese saying goes: fortune and misfortune depend on each other.
Then, imagine the part that has become reality as an unchangeable destiny, and imagine the future as a reality that can be changed through hard work, so that you can have a peaceful mind, right?
