1. Daniel wanted to express himself in front of his friends, so he accidentally killed a person. Since then, he has started a new life in a juvenile detention center. But the life of the juvenile detention center is equally tragic. He is always bullied, almost the kind of idiot who is bullied by others; although Daniel wants to become a priest, his murder record makes any seminary avoid it. far.

So sometimes we always say that Western society is extraordinarily tolerant, but in fact it is all a lie. The inner logic of how the world works is always figured out. When you make a choice, you must bear the corresponding price for this choice. Daniel's theft and murder are his crimes in the real world, so in the end, his path in life is getting narrower and narrower, which is also the price he has to bear.

2. Daniel wants to become a pastor, but his crime has been branded, no matter where he goes, the record of this crime will always follow him; so, don't take crime as a kind of responsibility at any time, As a kind of cool, you may feel cool at the time and feel that you are powerful in front of your friends, but the price is also extremely tragic, because you will most likely block your entire life.

When Daniel's dream of being a priest could not be realized, he found a home by accident in a small village around the lumber mill.

Here he became a fake priest, and apparently he received far more flowers and applause than the former. This is the kind of change that the new youth brings to the traditional community. As Daniel said, I am not here to ask you to pray mechanically, because in the end you are the only one who can redeem yourself.

It is undeniable that Daniel has made some contributions in the community, but his contempt for the Holy See and this blasphemy against God will inevitably be held accountable. Here, too, brings up a very serious topic. That is, when a role like Daniel can assume the responsibilities of a priest and maintain a very good problem-solving ability, does it mean that the divine authority has been trampled on?

While saving others, Daniel is also saving himself. He has no idea where his life is going. The mistakes they once made were all based on their youth and frivolity, and it is now impossible to try to live a different life. So did Daniel, and so did his friends in the juvenile detention center.

3. When a society is inevitably going downhill, as a young person, you must see this trend clearly, and don’t be overly attached to a traditional place of death. The battlefield of young people will always be those with fierce competition. super city. Those young people in the play, like the youth in Taiwan today, always feel that the land they live in is exceptionally good, and that any welfare policy is world-class... But when you really go out and come back , you will find that short-sightedness can delay a person's development prospects.

It doesn't matter if you can't see the future, just do the present well, but if you don't grasp the future when you know the future is at your feet, then there's really nothing you can do except be stupid.
