Last Sunday night, China Entertainment Television rebroadcast "My best friend's wedding" starring Oscar actress Julia Roberts. The film was the nation’s top-selling love comedy in 2000. It tells how a gourmet MM planned a wedding. Snatch the groom into the most loyal supporter of the wedding. This is the third time I have joined.

Julianne is a professional food critic. He writes food books and columns that are very popular. There is a gay eccentric manager. When she was in college, she had a boyfriend named Peter. Before graduation, she had an unforgettable cohabitation life. The two were like-minded in all aspects, and they agreed that if Julianne did not find true love for each other on her 30th birthday, Peter would Will propose to Julianne. On the appointed day, Peter called as expected, but the scene of the proposal did not take place. He told Julianne that he was in love with a rich daughter and invited Julianne to New York to attend the wedding. Julianne, who had always refused to settle down, suddenly missed Peter very much, and vowed to snatch Peter back from her pampered idiot girlfriend. So an ill-intentioned woman came to the couple and acted as a close friend of the two, but secretly created a misunderstanding, highlighted the shortcomings of the bride-to-be, caused the groom to lose his job and put blame on the future Tarzan, and kissed the groom on the wedding day. Seen by the bride...but the bride is a simple and cute blond girl who can’t bear to hurt him. Although Peter admits that Julianne is the most important woman in his life, what he missed is that he missed it. When the two were together, Zhu Li'an never liked Peter to express intimacy in public, and did not consciously give up his ideal life for Peter. So Mary appeared. As the daughter of a sports magazine owner and the heiress of a baseball team, she was willing to give up her studies to marry Peter. The honeymoon trip accommodated Peter’s work and arranged to travel in several inland cities. Peter was moved. Mary proposes to her with unreserved love, so Peter, who is Julianne's close lover, becomes Julianne's best friend and Mary's groom. We have to admit that there is no perfect, perfectly matched story in the world, and two like-minded people will eventually break up because someone is unwilling to sacrifice for each other. I don’t know since when, the desire to affirm our own value in our concept gradually replaced the good sentiment of self-sacrifice in traditional education. Seeking and embodying the value of one's own existence and enjoying the comfort of life is easier to be satisfied than sacrificing oneself to fulfill the happiness of others. So on weekends, we prefer to go shopping with our boyfriend instead of tidying up the room for him. We would rather fall in love and enjoy the pampering rather than playing the role of taking care of the family. Julianne's wisdom, vitality and wit made her the perfect woman in Peter's mind, but such a perfect woman is not his final choice of wife. Love requires sacrifice. When Peter knew that Mary was the woman who was willing to sacrifice for him, he knew that this was his destined wife. To love someone, if you can love to the point that you are willing to sacrifice for it, then that is true deep love.

Because Peter is also pursuing his own value, what he needs is a wife who helps him realize himself. At the last moment, Julianne finally gave up the plan, found the bride who had run away, and completed this romantic and grand wedding.

Mary’s family is rich and traditional. Mary’s personality is simple and enthusiastic. She knew about Julianne’s existence and her status in Peter’s mind when she met Peter, but she used tolerance instead of being jealous and cherished the fact that Peter was around her. Work hard to be Julianne's good friend. When she met George, the manager who pretended to be Julianne's fiancé, she and her mother were as happy and excited as meeting their sister's fiancé, and were truly happy for Julianne's home. At the lunch after the wedding rehearsal, a dozen people from the two families were sitting in a fast food restaurant. Mary's mother asked caringly and curiously about how the two met. George used a song "Say a little pray for you". "Divert everyone's attention. The two families started on a whim and sang this song under the piano accompaniment of the waiter in the fast food restaurant. The restaurant was filled with a harmonious atmosphere, and the scene was especially lively and warm. This is how the family shares happiness in mutual care and regards the family's pride as their own, and this joy is obtained after everyone sacrifices their time to accompany the newlyweds in the wedding rehearsal. It can be seen that getting the love of the family also requires sacrifice.

When it comes to modern marriage and family, we use accommodation instead of sacrifice. Accommodation is only passively making concessions based on the other's character, while sacrifice is actively discovering and taking actions to cater to the other's character or ideals. Asking our own hearts, it may be easier to agree to accommodate our lover, but it may not be so simple to promise to sacrifice for it. So I came to the conclusion that looking for a lover in this life is not the one who understands you and appreciates you the most, but the one who is willing to support you and sacrifice for you, and the best way to repay him is to do He sacrificed. Take a look at the people around you. Is he working overtime to take you abroad during the holiday, sacrificing his own comfort? Is he sacrificing social activities to find opportunities for development to stay with you and your children? , Is she busy and unkempt to give you a stable rear, sacrificing her personal image, is she sacrificing her cute appearance so as not to drag you back. Time for love. This person may not be able to understand your proud move, but can support it.

It is often said that when you get married, you should marry the person who loves you the most. Don't marry the person you love the most. In fact, it is to let you choose the one who can sacrifice for you more. It is also a wish that others will sacrifice more for yourself than you sacrifice for love. In fact, if you want to keep the person who loves you the most, it is best to develop the habit of sacrifice for him and make him your favorite. people.

Julianne and Peter lingered in the memories of the past. They both knew that they were and always will be such a fit pair, but what is past is past.
