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.

    #hoppingmovie# Another sports inspirational film adapted from a real event. This film about faith and optimism is worth watching without getting to the bottom of why she seems so unrealistically powerful (and she is). ps. Carrie Underwood also appeared in the film.

    It's so inspiring, what else can you say after using your soul to surf. The tsunami was too sensational.

Soul Surfer quotes

  • [first lines, narrating]

    Bethany Hamilton: I was born in Hawaii to two die-hard surfers. How could I not have salt water in my veins. They say home is where the heart is, and for most people that consists of four walls and a welcome mat. But for me, it's the ocean, with the warmth of the sun on my skin. Two brothers, that's my answer when anyone asks why I'm so competitive. And of course, there's my best friend Alana. We spent more time wet than we did dry, my mom was convinced that we were mermaids. From the moment I caught my first wave, I knew I wanted to be a Pro Surfer. Nothing else seemed to matter. Surfing is my passion, my way of life. The stoke I get from riding a perfect wave is pure joy. But like my dad always says, life is an adventure. And sometimes you wipe out and end up in the impact zone.

    Bethany Hamilton: I was born to surf. This is why I wake up at the crack of dawn everyday. This is why I endure belly rashes, reef cuts and muscles so tired they feel like needles. And I've learned life is a lot like surfing. When you get caught in the impact zone, you need to get right back up. Because you never know what's over the next wave. And if you have faith, anything is possible, anything at all.
