Love is not everything, but nothing is impossible without love.

In the movie, the mother's illness is getting worse and worse, and the little boy Conor tells his mother that everything will be fine. Seeing that his mother became more and more haggard and her hair was shaved, she would lie to him every time, "The doctor has tried another new drug, and it will be fine soon." In fact, he already knew that his mother couldn't stand it, but he didn't want to admit it. The process of cheating and comforting each other with my mother was very tiring and painful.

He can't admit that his mother's illness will not get better, which means giving up her mother.

In the face of the impending departure of an important person, in addition to reluctance, sadness, and pain, the more tormented emotion is loneliness.

Life is a journey, and a farewell that cannot be changed even if one tries to save it. Only by saying goodbye, hugging tightly, and blessing with pain, can you truly have it.

Or, some people just refuse to say goodbye, and it is also a choice to want those who have left to linger in this life. Also good. It doesn't have to be this way to be called growth. It doesn't matter if you don't grow.

Because love is great, we need to protect it, cherish it, not squander it.

Conor's father and mother divorced very early. "I still love her now," he said.

Conor asks, so you're not living a happy life? Dad said, "That's life, and some people have a terrible life with love. Love isn't everything."
