I like her quietness

With nothing to do and a little boredom, I saw this movie by accident. The story told by the film, in the first half, Lisa suffered various experiences before she was 17: her mother was drug addict, AIDS, her father was incompetent, ignored, lived in poverty, did not go to school, and suffered all kinds of psychological blows; in the second half, Lisa came In high school, his talent was revealed. After completing the 4-year course in 2 years, he successfully won the New York Times Scholarship of ¥12,000 per year for 4 years and entered Harvard.

The various blows, experiences, cruelty, and devastation in the first half of the film make people see the reality and helplessness of life. There are too many feelings to say, but they are not the focus of today. There are always real tragic situations in life. Losing relatives, being insulted, and shocking are common things.

Perhaps it was because of the torment of life that Lisa had experienced, she seemed very calm and calm, not only in the way she talked to people, but also in her attitude towards life. Quiet, calm, close to the heart, without sculpting and concealment, really conveying his thoughts to others. In the second half, I gradually fell in love with this girl. This attitude towards life and others has made many people unattainable in their entire lives.

Lisa's two important interviews—applying for a new school and applying for a global scholarship—impressed the examiner with her personal experience and attitude. These experiences have been lingering in my heart for too long, and they are no longer unbearable when they come out of their mouths. The real thoughts and real experiences, all the onlookers feel sorry for her life experience, but they have thoughts about her moving forward, upward, and Pursue admiration. Two successes are the best proof.

What I want to say most is:

The most touching part of the film: Lisa came to the new high school, and gradually showed her intelligence and courage, and was appreciated by Mr. David. What she did not expect was that in addition to 5 compulsory courses, Lisa took 10 courses after school, night school and weekends. She wanted to complete 4 years of high school in 2 years. When washing dishes in restaurants and taking the subway, I read the handouts; I arrive at the study room at the earliest and leave at the latest every day. Until all the top 1 and 2 grades of the school graduated from high school, and got ¥12,000/year to enter Harvard.

Nothing is impossible, just forget about yourself and really put in.

I pretend to use this model on me, I have nothing to do but study every day, and I still have math problems in my mind when I finish walking and other things. This model can be realized in the mind, but there is a huge psychological gap from completion - cowardice, squeamishness, worthlessness, fear of hurting yourself, and lack of spiritual strength to pursue.

In addition to devoting myself every day, I still have a lot of time to pursue life balance. My goal is to balance life and be worthy of myself. Lisa doesn't need to feel sorry for herself, her goal is to simplify the quarter, get one thing done, get out of here.

So, the first half is suddenly connected with this: it is precisely with the deep understanding of life before that can we get rid of "human nature", get rid of the pursuit of vulgarity, have an extremely refined spirit, and have a calm attitude to accept life and accept it. learning challenges.

For me, Lisa's selfless devotion is not what I desire the most. I appreciate and intoxicated me with her calm and genuine attitude towards life, others and things. Being able to live with her and melt into this feeling, no matter how many difficulties, sadness, discomfort, embarrassment, embarrassment, how many are unacceptable?
