At the bottom of the slope, it is no longer far from climbing

People are always like this. They don’t feel tired on the way to struggle. Once they are about to reach the peak or a comfortable and flat ground, they are very worried. This goal has been achieved, and what will be the next one. Thinking can be overwhelming. Can not afford to slack off.

In the movie, the two old people live the life on the farm that they are accustomed to, and they must have experienced heavy pain because they are alone. The old man's son died in a car accident, and his wife couldn't stand him drinking and could not get out of his grief. also left. Until one day, her granddaughter and daughter-in-law appeared, and the story of the four began to unfold. At first, he was indifferent to his granddaughter, and later beat up her violent boyfriend for the sake of his daughter-in-law, taught his granddaughter to drive, and decided to let go of a bear that hurt his old friend.

I myself like to watch the scenes of the elderly and children, one is a person who has experienced vicissitudes of life, and the other is a girl or boy who is innocent and lively, and has not yet been deeply involved in the world. They superimpose and experience the meaning and value of life to each other. It tells the audience and their own inner complement and satisfaction. People grow up slowly, from childhood to play games with friends and go to school together, there is no mood at that time. When you get to college, you have best friends, and you will share your love with each other. Those are unripe fruits. These feelings become less worth mentioning over time. I remember the person I always cared about when I was in college. Now we haven't had a phone call for a few years. We can only see each other's status from the circle of friends. When we were in college, we were as good as one person. At that time, I thought that in my future, I would definitely be with her for the rest of my life. When we are adults and work, our peers gradually become estranged, because we learn to compare and ask each other's current situation, we are busy and troubled for our own life, and after exchanging information with each other, we will not sympathize with each other, or give to each other. comfort. Except for things like birth, old age, sickness and death, we will sigh for a while and then accompany a red envelope. No audio. Because we are ashamed to express ourselves when dealing with people in pain, and we do not know how to comfort them. Only the elderly and children can say whatever they want. The elderly may be a loser in society and have no money or place, but these are of no use to children. They are happy with 5 yuan for an ice cream. For a long time, they have no society in their minds, no danger, no hierarchy, and they will not judge whether what you say is good or bad. Their innocence will naturally comfort the elderly, teach them to drive, take them to forage, milk cows, they will all find it interesting. After doing the same thing for decades, the old people are tired of the repetitive work, until the child shows up, and they are as excited as the child.

When it comes to forgiveness, whether it is the distance between life and death, or the difference between life and life. I believe that all people have pain, and all have a certain perception of pain. And I think that when a kind person comes into contact with each other, the first is to perceive your pain first, and then share your happiness. Because the first thing she promises is not to sting you with some moves. Because of the accident in my family, I will never do it for others. If your parents are okay, I will not go to someone else's for the New Year. If the other party says yes, will I be happy or unhappy. If the other party asks you about your parents, what should you answer? I have experienced some emotional changes recently. At first, I was still struggling with reconciliation, admitting mistakes, or continuing to be angry. Now, I have forgiven these. The first thing I think about after forgiveness is how to be an interesting self. Everything in the past is not a stupid thing to drink too much, it happened. Doing it all over again doesn't have the power to change everything. Because of the same age, because of the way of thinking, and the mode of conversation, nothing has changed. So you can only change from yourself.

I should have such a child in my life. Because it seems that only in front of the child, I can let go of all defenses, all fatigue, and become stronger. For them, we are a small step of their climbing. Even if it is a small step, I hope that I will be the most stable one to carry them forward. It is a bit too much to say greatness, but it is the most courageous responsibility.

An Unfinished Life quotes

  • Jean Gilkyson: I flipped a coin. Griffin fliped a coin and I lost. So I was the one who was driving. It was 3 o'clock in the morning and we were both tired. We wanted to make it in time for the rodeo in Great Falls.

  • Jean Gilkyson: I killed him, Einar. Is that what you wanna hear? It wasn't the change in our pockets, or the weak ass coffee, or the rain. It was me. I fell asleep and I flipped the car six times. I killed Griffin. He had no argument from me. You think it's something I forget. You think that I'm not sick with it, that I hate my life? But I tried to keep living, and you haven't. Is that why you hate me so much? You know, you act like I killed you when Griffin died.
