Refuse to live day after day

This movie, dressed in comedy, actually contains a contemplative meaning. If you repeat yesterday every day in your life, tomorrow will be a distant future for you, what would you do? Most people live roughly the same boring lives every day, going to work, going to get off work, eating, sleeping, and occasionally gathering with friends, but they do almost the same things. At some point you will suddenly feel that today is no different from yesterday, and life seems to be just a simple repetition. You may have a brief sense of crisis, but you will soon be overwhelmed by a dull life. How to change? Here, it gave me a little inspiration.
Throughout the movie, you can feel love. And love is indeed a secret thread throughout the play. But I think what makes me even more amazed is that the film didn't just turn around in love. In the second half or so, you can clearly feel the change and improvement of the plot theme. If we can only enjoy one day, how should we face it? It's definitely worth thinking about all people who are bored with life. Don’t we often complain that our work is not fun? Speaking and doing things are sometimes acrimonious, lacking enthusiasm for others, intolerance, not loving life, living and living... sometimes I feel like myself. The protagonist Phil in the story is just such a person, so God's punishment for him is to keep his days repeated, make him tired, make him desperate, until he changes himself. God will not punish us like this, so most of us don’t often think about what we can do to benefit others and make ourselves happy, so the days go by, but when you think about it, the dates are different. , But in essence, is there a day that is not spent like this?
Time is always the easiest thing to ignore for us. Although we don't repeat yesterday in our lives, God didn't joking with us, but we joked with God. Too many of us live so repetitively every day, maybe it's time to change life. Try it, maybe we can also discover the true meaning of life.
