We need more respect and tolerance to live a good life if we get what we do

After watching this movie, everyone must think that my sister is so caring and a good person, and my sister is selfish and selfish as a big villain. In fact, everyone needs to live their own lives, they can get their own things, and they can also be reconciled.

Some people pursue excellence, some people pursue love and being loved; some places need talent, some places need dedication. Society is a huge machine, requiring all kinds of parts. The most terrifying thing is to insist on consistency and judge good or bad and right from wrong with a standard.

In fact, any personality can be reconciled, you don’t need to like it, but if he doesn’t hurt others, please don’t always be uncomfortable, don’t always think of ways to change others, and don’t use your own values. To deny others, there is no need to change and deny yourself in order to cater to others' values. Dislike can at least be respected, and don't understand can at least be tolerant.

It is conceivable why the two sisters have not communicated for 20 years. Personally, I think that the older sister has not been able to understand the selfishness of the younger sister, and would rather stay away from each other; while the younger sister thinks that the older sister is hypocritical and must have its own interests in order to “dedicate”. Does the younger sister have to become as loving and considerate as the older sister to get along with them? Does the elder sister have to be as rational and decisive as the younger sister, and the two people have a common language? I think neither. If the two could understand and tolerate each other twenty years ago, and the sister could understand her sister’s pursuit and unwillingness to be mediocre, and support her to go outside, the sister would be grateful for the sister’s contribution to this family, and she would do her best to help this family. In the same way, if the sister can recognize her dedication and ask her to understand her pursuit and ambition, her sister can also feel that her dedication is more valuable. If the way of getting along was like that 20 years ago, why is there a gap of these 20 years? Not only these two sisters, but also those related to them will live better.

There are a lot of barriers, and I have time to think about it. Maybe the other party may not be what we think. Most of us use the standard of being a good person to measure and constrain ourselves. If the other party does something wrong Okay, think about whether he didn't understand some situation, can you communicate with him about the situation? Can you understand and tolerate his code of conduct that is different from yours? If you are more tolerant and understanding, a life that fits your needs may not be unrealistic.

I don’t know if it’s right or wrong for the film to use LEO as a supporting role. I personally feel that as soon as he comes out, the focus of attention will all turn to him. His temperament is not based on acting skills. I was full of thoughts looking for him, and even my sister's gleaming loving face was blurred, too arrogant! Of course, the existence of LEO also attracted many people to watch this play.
