It can be said that Bethany's breakthrough has a lot to do with the family education she received since she was a child and the influence of the people around her. "You haven't lost everything. You're a long way from losing everything. The sharks didn't take you away. You're still among us." That's what Dad advised her when Bethany got discouraged. And this sentence also gave her strength again and gave her the courage to face life again. Bethany's sunny smile in the movie, the bravery he showed, did not give up on himself, but became more and more persistent in surfing. Bethany is like Venus with a broken arm, with incomplete beauty. Bethany's father told her when she was confused that he didn't know what to do either. He could only pray and listen and listen to the fate before the next opportunity. I think this is what I need to do when I face setbacks, don't indulge in pain and confusion, and do what I really want to do.
