At the beginning of the film, the contradiction between the grandfather and the children, and the 17-year-old conflict with his daughter, after the reconciliation of some events and a deeper understanding of the two sides, they all eventually moved towards reconciliation. There are many kinds of conflicts. In a big family, family conflicts are the ones that have the most contact, but every time the trouble is fierce, whether it is beating or scolding, or not coming to the door, as long as the relationship is still there, there will always be an opportunity to reconcile. A temporary comparison is understandable, but a long-term comparison is a real loss to oneself. So nothing is absolute. All contradictions, misunderstandings, unpleasantness, dislikes, and unbearableness will be eased over time, just like a sharp stone is smoothed, people will more and more reflect on themselves, restrain their anger, enthusiasm, and take the initiative to Get back your old friendship. Listen more to the words of your elders, when you were ignorant and young. When I was young, I was rebellious. I was always attracted to some cool and different things. I couldn’t listen to anything. I felt that my elders were too primitive. Their world and experience were completely different from ours, and they didn’t understand themselves at all. Yes, empiricism constrains people and sometimes even harms people, but most of the experience is learned through a series of lessons, especially at the age of looking at problems and things only on the surface, these experiences are the beacon, the direction , to prevent getting lost, to prevent falling into the abyss, which is why loyal words are hard to hear, people who are really good for you are afraid that you will be wronged if you go the wrong way, but how often do we take it as a deaf ear, and have to fall into it and struggle to know that the road ahead is impossible. Therefore, sometimes when you hear different opinions or suggestions, don’t rush to refute them. You must first analyze whether they are justified. In the process of talking, you are not trying to gain the upper hand, but to absorb useful things.
A large group of friends of my grandfather in the movie, still riding Harley-Davidson around the world in their 60s and 70s, enjoying the feeling of being on the road, playing the guitar and indulging in it, singing and dancing to the music, and emotionally weeping. I don't expect to be so reckless when I'm old, but I especially hope that I can set no limits when I'm young, give myself more choices in life, shoulder responsibilities, but be less entangled by family chores, and do what I want. To have more experiences and feel the beauty of different fields.
