Thin and tenacious life

The little blind man said, "Because I'm blind, my father doesn't love me either, and my grandma doesn't love me either." "Grandma said that God will take care of those who can't see." "Grandma said that God can be touched, so I went everywhere. Touch, want to touch him, and tell him everything about me." This broken little life longs for care and love. How happy and lovely he is when he plays like a normal little kid.

Dad is also a weakling in life. Born into a poor family, and without a father, when he grew up, he also worked hard and could not stand up. His wife left early, adding to his already poor life. He thinks that God is unfair to him, and he wants to get rid of this dark life that seems to be doomed. Because I felt that the little blind man was a drag, and deep in my heart, the evil idea of ​​getting rid of him sprouted. Watching the little blind man in danger several times, he just watched from a distance in pain. He hoped that God would help him decide and help him deal with this extra little life. But it has not been successful. The grandmother was right - "I'm not worried about the child, it's you." Dad couldn't feel what was the most important thing in life, and he was blinded by suffering.

The old grandmother knew everything, but she didn't say anything and just did her own thing silently, but when things couldn't be controlled, there was only tears. In the end, she left here and went to find the god in her heart. The marriage could not be completed in the end, and Dad went to pick up the blind man again. This time, God really did away with the evil thoughts that had been stuck in his heart. But when that little head was really submerged by the rapids, he realized the value of family love. He struggled to snatch his affection, and he regretted his previous thoughts.

The ending is good and warm. The little blind man did not sleep with his humble and weak little head tilted like that. God's sun shines on his slightly open hand, maybe he has touched the God that grandma said?

The Color of Paradise quotes

  • Mohammad: [crying] Our teacher says that God loves the blind more because they can't see. But I told him if it was so, He would not make us blind so that we can't see Him. He answered "God is not visible. He is everywhere. You can feel Him. You see Him through your fingertips." / Now I reach out everywhere for God till the day my hands touch Him and tell Him everything, even all the secrets in my heart.

  • Mohammad: [crying] Nobody loves me because I'm blind.
