redemption

After watching this film on the plane back from Singapore, I was so sleepy that I insisted on watching it, and there were tears in my eyes. The craziest point was when she finally realized that if she had to do it all over again every day, she should be nicer to others. She began to play with her sister, and instead of being indifferent to her sister, she spoiled her. She is also warm to her parents, not accusing her friends, but seeing the weakness in their hearts and pretending to be strong, she finally opened her heart to the boy who regarded her as a hero since she was a child, and remembered how loving a cool girl she used to be.

All this brought tears to my eyes. In fact, life can be as simple as it is, as long as you love everyone around you a little more, as long as you can see their embarrassing side instead of imposing accusations, life can actually be very beautiful. And the most important thing is that this is the best redemption for yourself. Because if you live in a state where you are always hostile to others, such a life is very sad. And only when you really open your heart, accept the shortcomings of others, and understand others, you will find that you will be very happy.

It is really a beautiful thing to do a good deed every day. May we all maintain this innocence.
