5 crying and 1 serious reflection after watching
5 big cry
I cried 5 times while watching "God Bless Bobby". In the first scene, when Bobby died, he jumped off the overpass and was hit by a heavy truck on the spot. Before he died, there were tears in the corners of his eyes. He recalled all the things, and the joy was that he learned that he was gay. And decided to be honest after the grief and incomprehension covered.
The second scene was when Mary, a mother, knew the news of her child's death. When she thought it was the child who needed money, she walked out the door with her bag as usual, but what she saw was her husband. The door could not be opened, she cried loudly: My child is dead, open the door for me.
The third scene was when the mother came into contact with the pastor and participated in the PFLAG group. One night, she dreamed that Bobby was a child. She had always thought that Bobby was different from ordinary children, but she suddenly realized that Bobby is actually no different. . She found the pastor and said: I know why God didn't heal my son, because he was not sick.
The fourth was when Mary gave a speech:
Homosexuality is an unforgivable original sin, and homosexuals are condemned to hell forever. If they wish to change, they can be healed from evil. If they are willing to stay away from temptation, they can become normal. If it doesn't work, they should try harder. This is what I said to my son Bobby when he found out he was gay. When he told me he was gay, I just felt like the sky was falling apart and I did my best to heal his sickness. Eight months ago, my son committed suicide by jumping off a flyover. I deeply regret my lack of knowledge about homosexuality. Now I understand that my education was stubborn prejudice and dehumanized. If I had learned more, instead of sticking to the rules, if I could have listened to my son when he was honest with me, I would not be standing here today filled with remorse. I believe that God rejoices in Bob's kindness and kindness, in God's eyes, love and kindness are everything. I don't know that every time I repeat my eternal curse on homosexuality, every time, I say that Bobby is sick and depraved and threatens the safety of the children. His self-esteem, values, are being destroyed by me. In the end, I'm irreparable for the damage I've done to him. Bobby jumped over the pedestrian barriers, jumped into a heavy truck, and died instantly, not God's will. The most direct result of Bobby's death is the indifference of his parents, his fear of homosexuality. He wanted to be a writer, and his dreams and hopes should not be taken away, but they were taken away from us. There are kids like Bobby sitting in your church who don't know you, but they will listen, and when you say Amen, they may stop praying, praying to God for understanding, acceptance, and your love . But your disgust, fear, and indifference to homosexuality make them quit praying. So, before you say Amen at home or at church, think about it and remember that a child is listening.
Scene 5 is when Mary finally hugs the child, and she seems to see Bobby. If she had accepted Bobby with this mentality, Bobby would definitely not die. But in that child, Mary saw forgiveness.
1 reflection
"God Bless Bobby" made me feel the power of Mary as a mother. There is such a mother in real life, which shocked me even more. But in my own context, most mothers are not like the ones in the movies.
One of my high school classmates was gay. When he confessed to his mother that he was gay like Bobby in the film, his mother hated him very much after learning about it, and quarreled with him every day, saying he was a pervert. Later, the child committed suicide. After the suicide, his father rushed back from out of town, thinking it was his mother's problem, and then divorced her. His mother remarried someone else. This is no longer the case.
I admire the greatness of the mothers in the film, but the reality is that if there are such children who choose to commit suicide because they cannot accept that their children are gay, most mothers may choose to quarrel with their husbands, divorce and start a new life . I still don't understand homosexuality, let alone fight for homosexuality.
