A film that lifts the soul

In a leadership course promotion meeting, the teacher selected this film as the medium of course interpretation. I liked it at the time, because I was so busy that I didn't have time to watch it until today.
Everyone has a knot in their hearts, or a belief to work hard for, and this is the instinct you show in desperate situations. Kevin said in the film: Now I understand that I have always been the drowning gentleman, with only myself in my heart.
I don't think it's an exaggeration. Everyone has their own beliefs in their hearts. If you stick to your beliefs, there must be something that you can't control, you must let go, and you can't have everything. As he said to fisher: do what you can to save what you can, the rest we have to let go. Life is a choice again and again, it is so cruel. After watching this movie, you will understand that there are still many things in life waiting for you to complete.
I like the ending song very much, never let go! For the faith in my heart, never let go!
