I think gentle mercy between people is always better than God's blessing.
At the beginning of the story, the woman at the gas station showed mercy to the poor Mike and gained a simple love. This is the value of mercy, which lasts longer than all worldly love.
The woman has a boy, maybe out of loneliness, the boy always tries to get in touch with Mike at first, but the result is not ideal, there is a conflict between the boy and Mike
But as the story progressed, the boy gradually accepted Mike, because as the conflict deepened, Mike saw the little love in the family and gave up drinking for the sake of the family
Mike's relationship with the band symbolizes that Mike has learned to have compassion for others and abandon his own ideas for others. The band performed successfully and was well received, but this is no longer important to Mike, he got what he wanted
Mike and his ex-wife also had this kind of little love at the beginning. Mike wrote songs for her and she sang for Mike, but all of this was ruined by Mike's selfishness and the woman's selfishness that forced Mike to stop being selfish.
Mike's daughter represents finding love, Mike wants to see his daughter, and his daughter wants to find Mike. The estrangement in love was broken after her daughter became an adult, but an accident happened. Her daughter died in a car accident. On the way to find love, the other end The love is gone forever, it's easy for Mike to go back to that selfish period, but he didn't, he poured it all out
Inspired by the compassion and love of women, Mike learned to show compassion to those in need and cherish those around him, abandoned selfishness, went to church to be baptized, and gained his true self
The whole film is fast-paced and uses a lot of music. These lyrics express the mood of the characters quite bluntly, and at the same time create a relaxed and loving atmosphere for the article.
Finally, I want to say that no matter how high we climb, we should never forget to extend a helping hand to help those in need, because this gentle mercy can wash people's hearts, and the effect is far better than God's blessing.
