Fate is sometimes so unfair that it made your way to become a banker in your 30s, and it was so cruel that fate made you a murderer of your wife and mistress. Sentenced to life in prison and bullied by the sister gang. But you have no accusation, no pessimism, you silently wait for your hope. Although many people here think that the word hope does not exist. And you firmly believe that with just a small hammer, you will see the light of day again. Even if someone predicts that it will take 600 years.
You are living in a Shawshank prison with elegance, the same work, the same life. The difference is that what you see every day is close to hope. I don't want to live here forever. After a month of silence you finally found Reid, a good guy in Shawshank who is said to be able to get anything out of packs of cigarettes.
Here, you will believe that the friendship between people is destiny. How could a real murderer be imprisoned in his early years, how could he have predicted that the friend who would accompany him for half his life at the end was once a flourishing banker. And when he first came in, he made a bet that he wouldn't be tortured. In this world full of the weak, you choose to use the calmest attitude to examine the ignorance and arrogance around you. Holding the Bible in hand, longing to be able to save the blasphemy. Reid recalled your deeds afterwards, lamenting how rich a bird you were, and Shawshank couldn't hold you back. Sooner or later you will leave. That wonderful escape happened when you reflected on your own innocence and money laundering. When it was time to stop, you didn't choose to hesitate. Doing fake accounts for years makes you also a banker in prison. Through various means, not only a large amount of money was obtained for the warden, but also the construction of the last prison library in the state. Also got a high school acceptance letter for a punk youth. And none of that matters. The important thing is that in the final choice of the soul, you chose to be innocent and approach God. You have given up the supremacy in the prison that the warden who gave up justice for his own sake has given you up. You spent twenty years unknowingly digging a way to the world beyond Shawshank. Just using a poster of a beautiful movie actress is enough to hide it from the sky.
After how many people have been baptized in prison and completely transformed into a situation where they cannot survive, your heart has already flown to an island in the vast Pacific Ocean. You have used the hand of God for all the false accounts of the past. When your face is haggard and your face is full of sadness, in the face of sin and innocence, you say this: Either you are busy living, or you are busy dying. Resolutely decided to follow the long, foul-smelling sewers and cross the river on that night when the thunder and lightning roared, ending your 20 years of wrongful imprisonment. You didn't choose to stop there. You used the identity of another decent person to report against the Shawshank Prison officer. Thankfully, you haven't forgotten your friend Red. Under that oak tree where you and your wife fell in love, buried your handwritten letter to Reid and your travel expenses to the island. A friendship that lasted 20 years did not come to an end, it continued its commas. On that blue sea, you saw Reid, who was long overdue, and your spirit seems to have never been in prison. Started a new life.
Either get busy living, or get busy dying. What a pertinent saying. Don't try to be mediocre, don't fantasize about doing something wrong without being known. You know, God's judgment came sooner than expected. Happiness is only for those who are prepared. It is you who interprets it to us with your life. Don't take the initiative to give up any hope.
