The eighth day is a brightly wrapped attitude

On the eighth day, everything is complete, we just lack an attitude.

We have always lacked an attitude of trying to be a child, even when we were children, it should be said that we only have childhood, but we are not children.

A child, was created on the eighth day, it doesn't mean small hands and short people, it doesn't mean slurred speech and faltering steps, it doesn't mean like crying and acting coquettishly, it means a pair of eyes, and those eyes are filled with the clearest sky blue, It is the sea, filled with the freshest emerald green, and the grass, filled with the most understanding and considerate feelings, it is love. Maybe I'm not talking about Jorge, but at least we all know we're not talking about ourselves.

In fact, the story is very simple. It is a process of inner changes after a messed-up louis meets a jorge with insufficient intelligence. I think I would have liked it better if no one from the hospital ran out and grabbed the car, after all, it was no different from flying over a lunatic asylum. I liked the way jorge stood in the rain with his hands up for a long time. I liked his unreserved kiss and joyful appearance. I would feel a little embarrassed because we are used to acting, and he is not an actor. is a real patient.

He is not good at everything. For example, he will laugh at you. For example, he will deliberately close the window to cover his eyes so as not to see you being taught outside. For example, he is not obedient, but he has no bad intentions. Agreed, it's hard, isn't it? He understands that he shouldn't cause trouble to anyone. He will cry but not hold grudges when he is disliked. He doesn't think the world is bad, he just thinks he is unhappy. It has been like a bird from the sky to the ground, the ground is grass, created by God, speak to it gently.

It's not amazing by the standards of a movie, but if it can make two best actor spots at Cannes, it proves that it can do more than just make a movie. It became a spirit and attitude, made up of ladybug sky blue and green with real disease and death.

I think it's difficult to be a child. It can't be said simply that people with disabilities can do it, but why can't we normal people. This is incomparable, and the realm of the two is different, but no matter how difficult it is, it should always be something that a person strives to keep, insist on, or strive for.

Only with spring can you smell forever, so the important thing is not to pick flowers, but to build spring, so instead of thinking back to childhood, go to the eighth day.
