There is no such word as "easy" in adult life

Just finished watching the American movie "The Weatherman", a very educational movie, especially for adults. The film tells the story of a weather forecaster. Through his inner monologue and memories, he tells the story of his American success and his sadness. The protagonist divorced his wife because of a trivial matter, and immediately after the adult’s negligence to take care of the child, the child’s bad behavior and psychological problems. Among them, the protagonist’s father is a writer recognized by the society, but the play focuses on his role as a father and several conversations with his son. What shocked me was the title of this article, “There is no “easy” in adult’s life. Two words"! In my opinion, this sentence can be said to be the soul and purpose of the whole movie. Just like the end of the movie, the weather forecaster answered a question at the archery range and asked, "Will it rain?", he calmly answered "Who Know" and leave in a hurry. At this time, he naturally said it after experiencing many, many experiences, the departure of his wife, the experience of the child, the death of his father, and the countless times of being "smashed" before he became famous...

to me It is not the protagonist’s ultimate success, nor the protagonist’s arduous journey to fame, nor the plot of the film and the story, but the words from his father to his son: "There is no such thing as'easy' in adult life. Character"!
Yes, in a simple sentence, through the story described in this movie, I have seen it as an adult with a special feeling. Life is really not easy, especially when you are an adult, you have to face many things in life, and sometimes you have to say to your son like his father in the car: "To this shit in life, we have to throw Drop something, .... There is always something to look after." Yes, in life, for adults, everything has to be faced, chosen, and decided by yourself. If you have a choice, you will inevitably abandon it. Therefore, life must throw away some things. Although this will bring some pain, "there is always something to look after". Therefore, for adults, we must dare to face our own choices. After the choice, we must We must "take care" of the things we choose with all our heart. Perhaps this is the advice of the dying father to his son. This is his life perception after his profound understanding of "the adult's life". From the end of the movie, the protagonist understands his father’s advice. What is gratifying is that he finally faces his own life. His "wife" and children live very well in the new family, and he also does his job. Very good, but I feel a little regret in my heart at all times, as he said at the end of the film: "The other person living with my relatives is different from what he expected. It is not easy to accept this reality... But there is no such thing as easy in adult life. I will accept this American success. This is where I am now...Hello, America!" He still accepted this reality helplessly. Because he understood that "there is no easy word in adult life"!
