To love, to grow

There are some movies that you have watched, but your heart is full of thoughts but you can't write, and your mind is full of thoughts but you don't know how to organize them.
And that's what The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants was for me.


(1) Men

I just want to say that men are monsters, freaks.

2. Courage

"GO", if you leave this word here directly, it is estimated that people in different moods will read different perceptions. In the film, Lena solved the inherent doubts in her heart because of Kostas, and finally plucked up the courage to explain everything to her grandfather on the day Kostas was leaving, and the relieved "GO" touched me at once.
"Someone is quiet and stubborn and afraid of showing too much. But then he met someone who changed everything, should he give himself a chance or not, even if it's only a flash - in - the - pan? "
"GO"
that is What kind of feelings can shake the original stubborn position in pursuit of happiness, and eventually collapse. Go, go after, yours, happiness.

And Kostas' monologue to Lena on the boat was particularly touching. "some people show off their beauty, because they want the world to see it. other try to hide their beauty, because they want the world to see something else." Whether it's showing off their plum to the world, or hiding their own Beauty, and letting the world see your heart is something that requires courage. As long as you dare, you can show your beauty to others, both inside and out.

(iii) Pursuit

This is a film that pursues friendship, pursues love, pursues family affection, and pursues all happiness. Tibby pursues his friendship with Belly and his dreams; Bridget pursues his dead mother and the overwhelm after getting it; Carmen pursues his father and lost family; Lena pursues love and courage; Belly pursues life...
Pursuit is another way of being in struggle.

(iv) Death

I don't want to expand the discussion to the level of death. It is too big and too broad, and maybe it is not something I can understand and appreciate at my age. After all, I've never experienced the pain of being around someone who has left me.
I don't know if anyone has ever thought that when the loved one around you dies and leaves forever, you will cry hysterically or be silent. And what will your next life be like? I will, but, I can only imagine this level: I will live well. As for the details, it is not that they dare not, but they are blank. Parents will grow old one day and then leave; friends around you may also leave by accident: even your lover does not know whether it is a little earlier or later than you. But such a process or result of death is such a natural thing.
Some people just go with the flow and never come back.


Today is my mother's 43rd birthday, I hope everything is fine. Until one day, she let me go with the flow. Peaceful and serene.

    Lena: All my life, everybody has seen me a certain way. What do you see?

  • Carmen: [to Tibby] Why are you giving me this hypocritical lecture? When you're the one who walks around saying screw the world because that's easier than having to feel something!
