Run! Baby Run!

Just came back from the cinema, a very exciting movie. Whether it is the hard work of a woman or the amazing horse, it gives people passion and inspiration.

At the end of the film it was written "Secretariat was considered the greatest racehorse that ever lived." When it first entered the race, it always caught up later. The start is always last, and then it gets faster and faster after half the distance. So that in the last race, it ran first at the beginning. Its owners, horse breeders, and trainers thought this was not a good phenomenon and were very worried about it. No one can think that after half the distance, it still runs faster and faster. At the end, when he crossed the line, he put the second place far behind, 1/4 of the playground. Everyone was stunned, and its opponent was convinced of the loss. I almost couldn't help shouting "Run! Baby run!" for it in the movie theater. Although I didn't call it out, I don't know why my throat hurts a bit after the movie. . .

The owner of the horse farm, the middle-aged woman, a standard housewife, lost her parents, had no funds, and no family members to support her. She worked on her own to run the farm, find someone to train secretariat, and participate in the competition. She eventually became the first woman in the horse racing world and stood on that stage with other men. She used secretariat's achievements to win the respect of her business partners and the admiration of her opponents. In the end, her family was also proud of her. The secretariat is the god horse in the arena, and she is another god horse in the spirit arena. I saw the galloping horse in her heart, full of enthusiasm and unyielding.

After watching this movie, I was a little relieved at the loneliness and hardship right now. I said to myself, "I have to work hard like a strong horse, push through the hardship, and everything will be fine. As long as I don’t compromise, everything will be fine. Things will only get better and not worse."
